Re: Private to Sera
How Mikael was able to think like that was beyond Serafina. He was always so stoic when it came to things like the pleasure of the flesh. She had long since lost her virginity to Ash and enjoyed the freedom that she had while here at school for as long as she could. After all, depending on who her future husband would be, there would be little chance to get away with it at all later. "You might be missing out on something if you assume intercourse is simply for procreation Mikael dear.
Sera doubted his comment about what their fathers keeping what was best for them in mind. It was more about the family and their honor than any real desire to think of what Serafina or Mikael wanted. That was what her aunt was for. The women were there to care what the children wanted and needed after all and were the voice of concern. "It is, and I'm sure that we will find things out soon enough." Her father was bound to make a choice soon after all and she would find out then just how likely it was that her and her cousin would become husband and wife.
When the topic was switched, she was grateful even if it was about Joseph and his desire to prove himself quite skilled at using propriety to is advantage. "It means little what I desire since the invitation has already been sent. He is simply doing it to annoy me since I said that I would not come willingly to his house.
