Chapter 15 : Facing Wren

*Amaya*

I turned around quickly to face the gruff disapproving voice. I wasn’t surprised it was Wren. Of course, it was. He was very talented at showing up right at the moment I was no longer thinking about him.

Jessa flashed a sheepish smile at Wren who was accompanied by Saunder. “Good evening, cousin! Saunder,” she giggled. “We missed you at dinner. I hope all is well with you.” Saunder and I joined Jessa in her laughter but Wren wasn’t amused.

He nodded to Saunder who immediately stopped laughing and walked toward Jessa who flashed me a playful frown. She quickly hugged me goodbye. I hated when they did this, and had conversations about me without saying a word. It was condescending.

“Have fun,” she sang over her shoulder as Saunder led her away from us.
