This is all Lyal's fault
That ass! I pursed my lips.
This is all his fault!! All because he ran his mouth while running on my birthday. He didn't just ruin the supposed special day for me, he ruined everything!
"I am not Corvina," I snapped. "And I don't appreciate your accusations." I didn't want useless trouble so I tried to talk calmly
Ravioli's eyes gleamed with malicious delight. "Oh, but you look so much like her. It's uncanny. Are you sure you're not following in her footsteps?"
The other women closed in tighter, their laughter ringing in my ears. I felt trapped, the walls of their contempt closing around me. Desperation clawed at me as I searched for a way out. This was so stupid and I hated every second of it.
Why can't I leave Corvina behind! She's dead! She died with everyone else in that fire years ago!
I let out a sigh
