Upon seeing the wide smile on her sister's face, Amarrise's smile widened. She spread her arms wide and ran towards Senara like a little child.
"Sister, I missed you," she said, enveloping her in a warm hug.
Senara patted her back. "You're married and have a grown young daughter, yet you're still behaving like a child with your sister," she chided lightly.
Amarrise laughed it off, pulling away from her sister. "I may be a wife and mother to someone, but I'm still a little sister to you, aren't I?" she asked coquettishly, wrapping her arms around Senara.
The sickeningly sweet voice and acts made Auren's skin crawl, yet he stood steady without a change in expression. Following behind her mother, Elvessa barely paid attention to anyone, lowering her head like a demure young woman, portraying the shy grace of her age.
