My mouth waters as staff brings out large family platters of all the foods I’ve craved the most, piled high in silver catering trays—savory mini quiches, coq au vin, fresh-baked baguettes with softened butter.

“Of course they’re for you,” he says, holding my hand. “I’d give you the world if I could, Cosette.”
“I don’t need the world,” I say, looking out in gratitude at the cluster of people around us. “I’ll settle for just a little corner of it. Just like this.”
