章節 476: Never assume you’re the only one with the shock factor

"I'm kind of nervous," I told Natha as we walked down the stairs for dinner.

"Why?" Natha narrowed his eyes.

Pfft--was he thinking I was nervous because of the Hero? How cute. "I'm worried about the nun," I explained quickly so this silly husband could stop being so feisty. "I mean...considering Ian's initial response, she might not take it well that I wasn't Valmeier."

"But you are..."

"You know what I mean," I rolled my eyes and glanced upstairs, where my exhausted child had fallen asleep in Zarfa's bedroom. "I'm glad Jade is asleep. I don't want him to get agitated when things go wrong."

"Nothing will go wrong," Natha stroked my slight frown and looked at me with a reassuring gaze.

"I hope so," I nodded.

I knew that the nun's reaction wouldn't affect me much, but I still wanted everything to go well. Was I being too greedy for such desire?

Oh well, I am the bride...no, I am the consort of greed.
