    Summary

    When he sits back down at the head of the table, he kisses Gregory on the cheek. “Do you want to make a wish too?”

    Gregory gurgles, entranced by the flames of the eighteen candles, tears still drying on his reddened cheeks. Gregory rarely cries—a trait that does not run in the family, something the older four make a point to remind Eloise and Francesca—but when he does, he seems to pick the worst moments.

    Anthony wraps one hand around Gregory’s tiny fists as a safety precaution, and he reaches across the table, tugging the cake closer to them. He mimes it once before he starts blowing out the candles. Gregory copies him with a joyous coo.

    And, mid-laugh after Gregory manages to take out precisely one of the candles, Anthony realizes he does need to make a wish, and he has nothing he wants to wish for. So, he wishes for more of the same.

    Summary

    “We would like to offer our sincere condolences regarding the passing of your husband,” Ethrand states in a lofty drawl.

    Julien sees Aranessa’s jaw go taut. “Thank you for thinking of us in our time of mourning,” she grates out.

    “Of all Houses, House Tachonis would never seek to downplay or invalidate the importance of a mourning period. However, certain circumstances warrant a loosening of the proscribed timelines.”

    Julien’s jaw falls ajar. He can't possibly mean...?

    “I fear I fail to understand you," Aranessa hisses. "Elaborate.”

    “All this recent unpleasantness was the consequence of years of unfortunate misunderstandings between our two houses. In contravention of what one might expect, I am pleased to say that I am here with an entreaty of peace.”

    Aranessa allows a long silence to transpire, one that seems to make even Ethrand uncomfortable. “I will hear the details.”

    “In exchange for a lasting peace, we only seek to solemnize this new alliance with a vow.” Ethrand smirks. “Accordingly, my father offers you the hand of my brother Occtis in marriage.”

    Julien looks down at the rug. If he doesn’t look down at the rug, he’s going to start shouting.
