I knew for a fact that the moment Nathan nodded and the herald said we could all rise, my family's eyes took in the presence of the debutante and immediately recognized him.
Nobles who had also come from the South, could barely hide their surprise and stared at me in utter disbelief.
Then again, I noticed everyone was looking my way at that moment.
The reason wasn't just because I looked stunning. Well, I did, but my beauty wasn't being appreciated this moment.
All the nobles who had been eager to see the face of the Crown Prince, watched as the man in question stared intently at me, and made his way over.
I smiled at Nathan whose long strides already brought him right in front of me. And he had been looking at me like I was the only person in this room. Like I was the only person in this world.
Maybe I was.
