When I arrived at the banquet hall, I glanced around, feeling slightly uninterested. Spotting a couch nearby. I decided to sit down for a while. 

Soon, Hera seemed restless, drawn by an intriguing scent. 

As I looked up, I noticed Benjamin approaching. 

He sat beside me with ease and said, “This banquet might run late tonight. If you’re feeling tired, you can head to the cabin to rest.

Madeline nodded confidently. “Relax. I’ll keep my word. Now, hand me the room card. The rest is up to you.” 

Sophie and I handed her the room card. It’s Room 2203. Don’t mix it up.” 

Madeline took it, waved us off, and confidently headed toward the guest cabins. 

After she left, Sophie turned to me, her voice laced with concern. “Are we sure about this? What if things backfire? Benjamin isn’t someone to mess with. If he retaliates, both our families could face serious consequences–maybe even exile or being demoted to Omegas!”
