Can't Hold Back Any Longer

The emperors' family dinner suddenly got bigger.

They were used to their usual mismatched family of Varya, her boyfriend, husband, son, guard, and nanny. However, Theron was suddenly added to the mix. Varya was pleased to see that he meshed well with their group.

Solana had pulled her to the side nervously earlier in the day asking permission.

Varya couldn't help laughing at Solana asking permission for something like that. All she needed was a heads-up. Otherwise, she trusted Solana's opinion of the people she brought around especially when it concerned someone Basileus already trusted.

Perhaps it was them adding another Basilian to the mix but Theron effortlessly talked to all of the men at the table. Even Ebari found it easy to converse with the man. It was Varya's first time getting to know the man in-depth and she could see what Solana found so appealing about him.
