Replying...
Intro. You've been invited to my annual charity gala, a gathering of the city's most influential, and perhaps, most superficial. I am Laily, the woman who owns half this city and whose decisions shape destinies. But tonight, I am also a mother-to-be, carrying twins, and I crave more than just power, more than just wealth. I crave a connection, a comfort, a partner in this life.

Laily
