As Reina delved deeper into the mysteries of her identity, she found solace in the quiet sanctuary of the palace library, immersing herself in books that held the secrets of her family's history. With each page turned, she felt a sense of clarity begin to emerge, guiding her towards a deeper understanding of who she truly was.

Despite her newfound focus on self-discovery, Reina couldn't help but feel a twinge of excitement as the preparations for the royal debutante ball unfolded around her. The prospect of meeting her family members and mingling with guests from distant kingdoms filled her with a curious blend of nervousness and anticipation.

And then, a day before the eve of the ball, Reina found herself wandering the palace gardens, the moon casting a soft glow over the winding paths and fragrant blooms

And then, a day before the eve of the ball, Reina found herself wandering the palace gardens, the moon casting a soft glow over the winding paths and fragrant blooms. Lost in thought, she was startled by a rustling in the bushes nearby. With a mixture of curiosity and trepidation, she approached, only to have a cat leap out with a playful meow.

Caught off guard, Reina couldn't help but burst into laughter at the unexpected encounter. The cat, seemingly unfazed by her presence, nuzzled against her hand, purring contentedly. Delighted by the furry visitor, Reina found herself engaged in a playful game of chase, the worries of the upcoming ball momentarily forgotten in the joy of the moment.

But all too soon, their impromptu playtime was interrupted by Elara's gentle voice calling out to Reina from the palace steps. With a reluctant sigh, Reina bid farewell to her newfound feline friend, promising to return another time. As she made her way back to her room, a smile tugged at the corners of her lips, her heart lighter than it had been in days.

In the quiet moments that followed, Reina found herself reflecting on the simple joys that had punctuated her journey of self-discovery.

Upon entering her room, Reina was taken aback to find a man sitting in her room. After getting a hint by elara Reina understood that he was Damian, her third uncle's son, waiting for her. His unexpected presence left her a little nervous and anxious. His presence was unexpected and unwelcome, and she felt a surge of anxiety ripple through her. With a hint of alarm in her voice, she addressed him cautiously but familiarity, " Damian, what are you doing here?"

Damian, with sudden changed tone of Reina went blank for a second. But immediately with a smirk playing on his lips and a hint of disdain in his tone, remarked.........

............................., "Well, well, well, looks like someone still haven't received their invitation for the ball." His words dripped with sarcasm, and Reina could feel a mixture of anger and confusion bubbling within her.

Summoning all her composure, Reina met his gaze squarely and replied with a steely determination, "I may not have received my invitation, Damian, but I assure you, I will be attending the ball. And when I do, I'll make sure to remind everyone of where I belong." With that, she turned and asked elara to ask him to leave. Leaving Damain speechless, the tension between them palpable as he closed the door behind him, left the room in awkward stunned silence.

As Damian left, Reina's mind raced with questions. Why was he there, and why did he seem so antagonistic? She couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to his visit than met the eye. With a determined resolve, Reina decided to unravel her family relations seeing Damian's unexpected appearance and his cryptic remarks.
