Yours Truly

"Please, remember this, tonight, your identity shall be that of Lilith Alred, a former teacher at one of the orphanages. Currently, you serve as my trusted assistant, understood?"

Rosalie drew in a deep breath, seeking a measure of calm, and gently shut her eyes.

'This is merely a name plucked from the pages of a novel I once read. Let's hope it doesn't correspond to an actual living soul in our world.'

She turned her gaze toward Laith, who responded with a solemn, unwavering tone,

"Understood, My Lady."

"Excellent."

Lady Ashter wore a pleased smile as she gracefully took a step back, casting a discerning gaze upon Laith.

"Well, I daresay it has turned out rather splendid, wouldn't you concur, Aurora?"

Aurora stood by her lady's side, her demeanor resembling that of a seasoned stylist meticulously appraising her handiwork.

"Yes, My Lady. And the dress complements her beautifully!"
