"I can only hope as much happiness as an elopement might be possible with a betrothal," Shona sighed, turning her gaze back down to her book for a moment. "Some days I wish Father hadn't. Others, I'm glad he did. I doubt my odds on the marriage market would be that phenomenal, were I to take my chances." And, she failed to add, it gave her an opportunity to follow her dream, until the day her betrothed was ready for her. She only hoped it wasn't too soon.

She wanted a chance to help people.
