256 Moments of joy (part 2)

Roxana sat with Diana and Vitale in a carriage that took them to Rayven's home. Alexander had to go back to the castle for work but Vitale was on vacation. 

"I am sorry we are taking your time," Roxana told him. 

"It is no problem," he said curtly. 

His tone was cold, his face always passive and his eyes distant. Roxana tried to involve him in a conversation but he always replied short and precise and he sat absolutely still although they were traveling quite the distance. 

Once they arrived at Rayven's dark castle, Diana had the same reaction she had the first time she saw the castle. It looked haunted from the outside. They went inside and Angelica was already having a chat with the stylists who would take care of them for the ball. 

She stood up from her seat with a wide smile and came over. Roxana introduced her sister and Angelica. "I am so happy you found each other." She smiled.
