Amira decided that her father had most likely already told her everything, but who knows? It was difficult to discern any emotions on her face at all. Just irritation. There was more than enough of this. Mia looked at her father in disbelief, wringing her hands in front of her. And Amira was waiting. I was waiting for the continuation of this monologue. - This union will be marriage. Marriage between the Allasters and Zedekiah. By uniting our families, we will put an end to all rumors of war. And our subjects will be able to live in peace, without fear for their future and the future of their children. - the father explained. After being silent for a minute, he turned his sad gaze to Mia. Amira’s heart sank from this look, and her father only quietly added: “Mia, I’m sure you’ll make a wonderful match for Maximillian Allaster.”
