He may have spoiled her, but that made any chastisement all the worse.

She's always liked the garden. She tries to spend time here as much as she's able. It's a place of peace for her which is why she's caught a bit off guard by what he's saying.

She blinks for a moment as her heart quickens its pace. She knew this day would come, but she had thought she would have been given more warning. Immediately, she can't help but wonder who he's decided on.

Seth maybe? His family isn't that well connected, but he's shown interest and a willingness to be loyal. It doesn't hurt that Seth is easy to look at.

Her brows lift, and she keeps all of this behind her eyes.

"Oh? Already?"

Her voice betrays a bit of her nervousness.
