Dear Diary,
I write this by candlelight, after a lovely day and an awful evening. Oh, to know what is happening outside these doors!
Diary, the library is going wonderfully. The books are reshelved, and the new fabrics and furnishings are coming tomorrow. Bonne said she would show me how to reupholster a chair, so that's for tomorrow. I have never been so domestic before, but it's a lovely change. i hope my husband, whoever he maybe, will appreciate it.
Husband. Husband. Dominic. Hello, this is my husband, Dominic.
What are you saying, Avive? You cannot marry Dominic Shahrizai. You cannot even be friends with Dominic Shahrizai, unless you want to end up dead. So says Alain. But why, why is it so dangerous? I simply don't know what crime Dominic Shahrizai could have committed that makes him so dangerous. I was reading A History of House Shahrizai, and nowhere are any of his crimes mentioned, only his life story until a few years ago. It mentions he has a taste for his own kin, but if that's true, what does he want with me?
I do like being called Flower.
We have been invited to Princess Phreya's home for tea. If Alain returns alive, I will write her a note accepting her invitation. If he returns alive. He has gone out, presumably to see Dominic and tell him to stay away.
Dominic's hands on my waist were hot. He was coming from assignation. He wasn't thinking of me.
I hope Alain wins.
Oh Diary, I wish I knew what was really going on.
Until tomorrow, I remain yours,
Avive de Mauvais
