Venus City 1
“Brielle said gently, her brows knitted in worry. “Are you all right?”
Braya shook herself, and gave the girl a slight smile. “Fine. Just worried about the wedding,” she lied.
Brielle accepted that, and squeezed Braya's shoulder affectionately. “Don't worry! You're marrying Latham. I'm sure he'll be a great husband for you. I think you worry about things too much.”
Braya wanted to laugh. Latham, a good husband? He may be able to fake it, but there was nothing good about him. Braya couldn't say t...hat to Brielle, but she was hit by the sudden desire to have Brielle in her confidence, to have Brielle listen to her problems and shower her with her empty—though comforting—promises that everything would be fine.

She had no idea what that felt like to hold another person’s opinion as equal as hers.MoreLess
