Ariana POV
Sally Wilkins (Wilberforce) Nelson had been born a European princess, lived for two decades as an American commoner, and now seemed to be back to her princess roots. She stared at Ariana in a, well, regal way.
"You can't be serious, Ariana. This is insane. NO."
Ariana held up her hands to ward off Sally while her aunt prowled the office of the Royal Architect, namely Uncle Bill. The newly named Royal Architect wasn't doing much designing at the moment, just watching his wife and niece from his desk.
"Aunt Sally--"
"Do you have some weird attachment to that woman? Stockholm Syndrome? My God." Aunt Sally jabbed a finger at Ariana. "She put our lives in danger. She put YOUR life in danger. And now this. What vampire hold does she have over you?"
"Making peace?"
