Aria's POV I turn around to see Mara walking towards us. "Mara… What the hell is she doing here?" I mutter under my breath, but Lucien turns to flash me a stare. "Mara is family, Aria, you don’t need to be told that, or do you?" he says and walks away to welcome her. She closes in on him and stops right in front of him. His arms encircle her waist while he plants a peck on her cheek. She blushes at the gesture, but it soon fades as her gaze lands on me. Way to go. Now she isn’t going to let me hear the last of it after I crashed her party. They start making their way towards me, and I excuse myself to another part of the training ground. I can’t even imagine putting up with her. Ugh, she’s so impossible. Sparring is my worst thing to do, but I’m in for something to keep my mind occupie
