Davian.
Excitement thrummed through my veins the moment my eyes flew open. Today was finally here, Vanessa's birthday. The day we had all been waiting for. The day we would crown her joy, drown her in affection, and make sure nothing, absolutely nothing, tainted her happiness. A smile tugged at my lips as I sat up, the anticipation buzzing so loudly in my head that sleep became impossible.
I wasted no time. I rose from the bed, took a quick bath, letting the cool water wash away the remnants of sleep, then dressed carefully in a royal blue cloak that signified celebration and honor. Today wasn't just any day, it was her day. Once I was done, I dashed out of my room, my steps light, almost eager, heading straight for my brothers' quarters. We had planned to meet early, to be the first voices she would hear, the first faces she would see.
Instinctively, my feet carried me toward Adrien's room first.But the moment I reached the corridor outside his chambers, I slowed to a halt.
