Deeming herself sufficiently recovered from travel to venture out of the inn to begin seeking more permanent habitation, Angelia was not of a mind to select a property alone. Inviting her sister and her cousin Rosalinda to join her in reviewing a number of eligible locations and then perhaps allow the city to see the bevy of Sandoval beauties stake their claim on the attentions of everyone surrounding them. Surely for one afternoon the trio could play nicely, as any and all attention on the two unwed women could be to the good? Both Rosalinda and Maricela were rare beauties who dressed to accentuate their dark hair, ivory complexions and sapphire eyes.
And neither objected to being shown off, fortunately.
Smiling to herself as she collected reticule and parasol to shade her delicate skin against the summer sun, Angelia felt the day's warmth precluded the need for a shawl. Moving into the sitting room of the suite of rooms occupied by the Sandoval family, she went to the window overlooking the courtyard, a nod of approval to see the open carriage that she'd ordered ready and waiting to convey them about Bordelaix. She was an inferior rider and walking was not an option. Turning back to the main chamber, she did not see either sister or cousin ready.
Unsurprised, Angelia chuckled softly to herself. Primping, no doubt, for their first public appearance, but time was ticking steadily away. If they wished to find a more permanent home before the Court opened, then they needed to get going. Raising her voice, she called out, "Rosa? Cela? If you two are not ready in the next two minutes, I shall leave without you and you will be forced to accept the property I choose!" With that dire threat cast, she waited to see its efficacy.
