The Allegros are about to get what’s coming to them. My family barely remembers my name (it’s Sephiel!), but I’ve written all of their names on my revenge list. Now that I’m engaged to Elgar from the powerful Remdragon family, I’ve got the allies and influence to make it happen. I’ve definitely got to be careful that these half-dragons don’t catch me in a lie (or kill me themselves), but I’m sure my cuteness and cunning will keep me alive.
