Larissa's Game of Thrones (Larissa) novel Chapter 214

She rubbed her temples, the weariness evident in her expression. The accident had thrown their entire family into turmoil.

Her throat was dry. She took a bottle of imported water from her purse and took a sip, then pulled out a small compact mirror to check her reflection.

She was pleased with what she saw. Her features were lovely, and the pampered life she’d led for twenty years had given her flawless skin that hid any minor imperfections.

She had always maintained a certain refined distance as part of her “talented lady” persona, but if she was willing to drop the act and truly focus on seducing a man, she was confident she could win over any creature ruled by its baser instincts.

“Alright, Leopold, time for your injection,” she murmured. “Just keep sleeping. That way you won’t have to deal with the mess our family is in. See? I’m still looking out for you.”
