Damien’s lips twitched, the faintest smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth, disbelief-and maybe a hint of admiration-shining through. Maya rolled her eyes but couldn’t hide her grin, amusement and relief warring across her features.

Ashcroft leaned casually against the wall, one eyebrow raised, lips tugging into a half-smirk. There was a faint glint in his eyes-a mixture of amusement and reluctant admiration, the kind that comes from seeing someone exceed your expectations in their own unpredictable

way.

The room echoed with quiet laughter, the earlier tension softening, replaced by the warmth of camaraderie-and the silent acknowledgment that in this circle, everyone had a role… and Harper was not someone to underestimate.

Dahlia’s eyes softened as she observed them, a quiet admiration for the bonds this generation had forged. These were connections not born of obligation, but of fate-paths that destiny had intertwined. She shook her head gently, then her sharp gaze sliced through the levity.

“Alright, take it easy. Don’t forget your manners. We are not barbarians, okay? Harper… try not to be too mischievous-you’re still a lady.”

A brief pause allowed the room to settle into hushed attentiveness. Then, fixing her gaze on Nick and Harper, she gestured between them with a knowing tilt of her head.

“And you two… how exactly are you planning to resolve your… issues?”

Harper and Nick both froze, heat rushing to their cheeks.
