Tala's First Time**

Ingrid stayed back, preparing to intervene as she observed the escalating quarrel between Lyra and Derry. 

Celeste chose to remain to witness her daughter's confrontation with the arrogant and disrespectful princess, intending to step in if it crossed the boundaries Orion had set. 

Elysia lingered to restrain Crystalia and prevent her from being ensnared in Reena's plan, sensing it was more complex than it seemed.

Meanwhile, Gina was internally prepared to act as a mediator should things escalate. She intended to report to Orion upon his return and was determined to do whatever was necessary to secure a special position within Orion's heart.

Tala winced in pain as she felt the obstruction within her lower lips being torn apart by Orion's deep plunge. "Auh!" A moan escaped her lips.
