Once Dylan and the others were satisfied, Sophie forced a stiff smile, jealousy flickering in her eyes. Through clenched teeth, she said, “Alright, Dylan, that’s enough. Caleb must’ve just spoken without thinking”

Gabriel took a deep breath before snapping. “Dylan, Matthew, what are you waiting for? Take her back to her room.

“Yes, Father” The two brothers immediately moved to grab her.

Kralizing things were about to take a turn for the worse, Eliza hiked up her skirts and ran, throwing etiquette to the wind. But there was no way she could outrun her brothers, both far more athletic than she was.
