159 Visit to Wyatt Manor (4) - Daryn Weds Dawn

Cecilia was stunned at the way Daryn removed his hand from hers. She stood there awkwardly and watched Daryn go to Dawn. He held the small of her back and kissed her on the forehead. "Missed you," he said out loud. 

Dawn chuckled. "Missed me? I was out for no more than twenty minutes." 

Cecilia rolled her eyes at their public display of affection. Then she thought, 'Humph, she is just a fly. Soon I will marry Daryn Silver. Men like him marry girls like me, who are sophisticated and refined and not like her, who are so gamine.' With a polite smile, she said aloud, "Please come for dinner. I think everyone must be waiting for us." 

The couple followed Cecilia to the dining room. Lily's eyes narrowed when she saw that Daryn was holding Dawn's back. Anger rose against Cecilia for not taking advantage of the situation. She suppressed it and with a tight smile, waved a hand to the chair to her right and said, "Dawn, please sit here."
