Alexander knows Selene is upset. She says nothing, but the slight twist of her lips is enough to tell him she's hurting. On the dance floor, Katherine waltzes with her father. Alexander looks away from his bride and approaches her maid of honor.

"Selene," he whispers. Her jaw clenches, though she doesn't turn to him. "About that night-"

She raises a hand

"Just shut up, Al," she says. "It was never about you."

Her gaze stays on Katherine, a sad smile fixing her face. It takes Alexander a moment, but a bit of him dies when he finally gets it.
