Devastation: A Beauty And The Beast Novel - Plot & Excerpts
Crow stood ready at the door but waved me over when he saw me. “You are most lovely, Miss Hovtel.” I smiled at his sincerity. “Thank you, Mr. Crow. You look very fine yourself.” He wore his usual dark jacket and pants but had taken care to polish his shoes until they reflected even the tiniest bit of light. “I want to keep you apprised of your sister’s behavior. She has been warned. If she ignores her duties again, she will be dismissed. She also lost half a day’s wages.” “A fair consequence for her actions,” I said. “I’m going to check on the kitchen and see when Kara thinks we should start bringing out the food. How much longer until you expect guests to arrive?” “Within minutes, Miss. There are always those who want to be early.” I hoped the candle maker was among them. While heading toward the kitchen, I checked the rooms I passed and found everything in order. After weeks of preparation, it seemed the estate was ready to hold its first feast in fifty years.
