New Year’s Eve at the palace was spectacular. There was a huge ball, and I was told there would be fireworks at midnight.

I’d brought nothing appropriate to wear, but Maya, Cortez’s brother’s wife, had plenty of gowns I could choose from, and as we discovered, we wore the same size. She also offered to let me get ready in her dressing area, saying that the two of us could make a grand entrance into the ball together.

“I’ve longed for him to find someone who makes him happy,” she said as we looked through her formal dresses.

“This…thing between us is very new,” I said, pulling one that caught my eye off the rack.

“Cortez will love you in that one,” she said when I came out a few minutes later. The gown I chose draped over one shoulder and had a wide satin sash at the waist. The Georgette fabric was a pale lavender on top and transitioned to peach. It was long and flowing, which was perfect since I was more than a couple of inches taller than Maya.

“You should leave your hair down. It’s so dramatic with its length.”

When I spoke with Teagon earlier about the ball, she reminded me she was working and wouldn’t have felt at all comfortable attending as a guest. While I still felt odd about it, she assured me she didn’t.

Maya had chosen a dark purple raw-silk gown. With her darker skin, hair, and eyes, she was striking in it.
