Bab 156: But, Your Majesty, it was finally my turn!

Lea responded enthusiastically, "Your Majesty, we owe so much to your ability to change the fate of the healer clan. Before, we wouldn't have dared to dream of loving, let alone marrying, the men we love."

"Oh, this child! I've told you that you may marry any Gamaaloth as long as it's not Rastislav! And yet, he accepted Rast's proposal!" Adeline exclaimed, playfully smacking Lea on the head in mock frustration.

Lea winced and rubbed her head, her expression a mix of pain and amusement. Despite Adeline's dramatics, the warmth and humor in her actions showed the close and affectionate relationship within their circle.

"And why did you, Your Majesty, throw innocent Lea at Rast?" Adeline challenged, her tone playful yet pointed.

Sophia tilted her head, feigning confusion. "Innocent? Anara recognizes Rast. That means Lea and Rast have met a few times without your knowledge, Adeline."
