(Alexia POV)
A ball was held in celebration of the declaration of the king's mate. It was held in high society where I would be introduced to all the family relatives, council members, and elders.
I could feel the pressure as I heard more and more about it.
The maids were running around in my new room, trying to get me ready in the best possible way. I am talking about expensive dresses and jewels and even shoes.
I had seen a lot of wealth in my 'old family' where my step mother and sister would never hesitate to show off, but this right here in front of me was the next level.
The feeling of hesitance to even touch these things was like pressure. Surely breaking or even scratching these things will cost a fortune to repair.
