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

Using my speed doesn't do very much because once I'm up, I catch Evan and Rowan fighting each other. They seem like they're getting along and as much as I should be happy that they are, it hurts in a way. Rowan knows how I feel about Evan at the moment, and he knows what he did to me.

Suddenly, I see a fist flying towards me. It's directed to my shoulder, but when I go to duck, I don't move out of the way in time. Lily's fist comes in contact with my face, knocking me to the ground. My head hits the ground, sending a wave of pain all throughout my body. My vision blurs and I see a silhouette of color move over me. I assume it's Lily because I hear her panicked voice.

"I'm sorry!" She yells as she runs to my side. I feel her kneel down beside me, pick my head up, and set it in her lap. "I'm so sorry," she continues to repeat apologies to me over and over.
