Re: Private to Sera
"You should indulge in it at least a little." Because Merlin only knew how he was going to be once they were married. Part of her was still hoping for her father to change his mind, but there was little other option available to her that wouldn't send her off to Russia and some man who expected children right away.
But Mikael seemed curious now that she had brought it up. She gave a small smile, but it was hollow. "There were a couple of names suggested the last time I spoke with father, but I am curious just who he would chose." Serafina debated telling him that his name was one of those batted around, but decided better on it. No need to cause problems if he decided on someone else.
"It is, but that's the point. he got one up on me. It'd distasteful, but also a bit impressive. Most people our age wouldn't have been able to maneuver it so well. I will go but make a quick afternoon of it." Because the last thing she wanted was to spend all day with Joseph.
