In public, she was the noble daughter of the Muller family and the enviable young mistress of the Carrell family. But behind the scenes, she was a poor maid who had to wear a mask all day long and struggled for her livelihood.

Due to a conspiracy, she was forced to marry Ralph Carrell, son of the most powerful family in Northfield, in the name of Rayna Muller.

After the wedding, Ralph doted on her.

When Rayna showed up and claimed the place, she shed all her glory and left. She thought she would never see Ralph again, but Ralph took her into his arms and said, "Mrs. Carrell, you are not running away from me."

The Odd Luna Series

My dad and Raelyn went up to me and I embraced then both in a hug. We pulled away and I saw a tear fall from Raelyn's eye.

"Don't cry Raelyn. You'll only make me cry," I sniffled and let tears escape my eyes freely. I hugged her once again but for a little longer before pulling away. I gave a curt nod to my dad.

"Tell me if he upsets you, I'll beat him to death, bring him back to life, and beat him to death all over again," He said with a chuckle. I let out a small chuckle as well. I gave my father a hug.

"I love you dad. I love you too Raelyn," I told them after pulling away from my dad.

"I love you too," They said in unison.

Of course I am! She replied. I could feel her running around while she wagged her tail.

I turned around to look at Chuck who was waiting patiently for me to finish my goodbyes.

"You ready?" He asked as he picked up my suitcase.
