Victoria’s mouth curved at his answer, though she was careful to let concern remain in her expression. [color=F0E399]“Then you are wiser than most brothers, Lord Fareed.”[/color]

Her fan opened again with a flick. [color=F0E399]“But if you will forgive me, tomorrow may be too generous a delay. Rumors have a dreadful habit of becoming facts once enough fools repeat them, and your sister’s name is already being passed from mouth to mouth with very little kindness attached.”[/color]

Her gaze drifted toward Askel. [color=F0E399]“If I were in your position, I would not wait for the vipers to finish coiling around her reputation.”[/color]
 
She looked back to Fareed. [color=F0E399]“I would speak to Prince Askel now. Here. Before whatever understanding exists between them is allowed to become something the court may never let her escape.For Princess Ranya’s sake, of course.”[/color]

And with that, she left Fareed to figure out his next move.[/color]
