Seraphina's weakness (1)

Author's note: this is from Seraphina's point of view

- - -

I engraved into my mind Aldus's lecture about sticking to my promises.

When I look at my personality, I don't have much going in my favor. I don't want to lose my credibility. 

I keep telling myself that Sanya died, and I am Seraphina. This is my chance to start anew, to become whoever I want to be, and I want to be worthy of the identity Aldus gave me.

Aldus's daughter is strong, powerful, and she doesn't go back on her word. 

I want Aldus to be proud of me. I crave his approval. After all, he gave me so much; a life (literally), safety, comfort, an abundance of knowledge, and his guidance. The least I can do is to take it seriously.

I agreed to dinner with Lazarus in exchange for spending a few hours with Alex and I need to stick to it, even if I don't like it.

This trip to investigate the incident with rogues will postpone my date with Lazarus.
