Sitting at the small round table by her room's window, Seraphina casually sipped tea while reading documents piled on the table with her free hand.
Managing a noble house was no simple task, especially a powerful and influential house like House Ravenshade. There were hundreds of institutions and businesses owned by the family. Reading the reports sent by them regularly and responding to problems arising there would take away most of her time.
But that was only the tip of the iceberg. She had to hold regular meetings with the heads of vassal families, attend politically significant noble gatherings and banquets, manage the family's finances, and much more.
She put the teacup down and let out a sigh.
'Just when is Raelion coming back? These are all his duties, yet he has dumped them all on me so irresponsibly.'
