Princess Sonya is heading down the stairs very carefully. The faint knock from the shoe she was wearing was heard, but far less than the rotten whispers heaving up to the ceiling of the hall.
It’s Rosetta who wants a big laugh right now. However, she is holding it because her position is not too far from royal majesty, which would certainly reflect her image.
Just look. Now Princess Sonya walks to the throne. All the nobles laughed as her footsteps seemed unsure of themselves. The girl’s shoulders were half bowed and her gaze looked down at the red carpet beneath her feet.
“Look at her.”
“Doesn’t anyone tell you how to wear a dress properly?”
“Who would design clothes like that.”
“That girl looks ridiculous.”
Other promptings reached Rosetta’s ear, giving rise to the disparate smile on the girl’s lips. It is not wrong for the nobility to gossip so openly because Princess Sonya’s appearance this eveni
“All the young girl here took a long hard work to look prettier at this party. But seeing that girl looking all poorly makes me even more upset!” As always Lady Charlotte adds, slowly wags the fan.Rosetta sweetly smiled, said with concern. “Well. We don’t have to get involved with her.”The ladies nodded approvingly, looked at one another, and then leaped at Lucas as putting up a formal smile.“But of course Lady Rosetta is the only one star of this party! Your beauty is amazing. Isn’t that right, Lord Lucas?“ asked Lady Elizabeth playfully.“Of course.“ Lucas answered.“If you’ll excuse us, then. I haven’t even seen my siblings,“ said Rosetta politely and nodded in respect.“Be careful, My Lady.” The Ladies nodded.That dark-haired girl had tucked her fiance in a very affectionate embrace. It’s as if showing off how wells have to do with the future Duke is important in the Aelton Kingdom. Everyone
“I’m sorry!“ screamed Princess Sonya in panic. Her hands rubbed against the back of Lucas’s coat but instead triggered a shock on peoples because of her impoliteness.Still, in a daze and a hurry, Princess Sonya pulled a handkerchief from her pocket and then struggled to clean the remains of the wine. Still, the reddish hue wouldn’t let go.“Stop!“ said Rosetta.She is getting very angry now. Rosetta had been trying to control her emotions when she saw that girl who she tried to avoid, then actually coming herself in a very embarrassing way.“But!”Princess Sonya looked up, staring at Rosetta who was holding her hand. The grip tightened until the princess frowned upon the pain. Rosetta glared at her.“Get your hands off my fiancee!“ Rosetta hisses sharply, only heard for Princess Sonya.Just like a fool girl that obeys promptly, Princess Sonya pulled her hand out. While Rosetta changed her hand on the fiance’s a
However, something boisterous within that princess. A kind of ingratitude has been grossly underrated in front of the other nobility. Even now, it grows stronger as Rosetta flattens it.“But, even if Lord Carleton is your fiancee, you guys aren’t married either. Isn’t your behavior a little bit too much, lady Rosetta?“ asked Princess Sonya as she looked up.A black bead in the shape of a lazy eye looks brave. Rosetta glared, half-surprised that Princess Sonya was staring straight at her. Then Rosetta squinted her eyes.“So what?“ Rosetta asked, ”Isn’t it fair to protect a lover from another girl who’s trying to get attention to herself and pretending to be ridiculous?”Rosetta stepped forward while Princess Sonya shuffled back.“Well, well. Oh! I know ... you don’t want to take any responsibility, do you?”Immediately Princess Sonya’s face turned red. Her brow winked and it was obvious that Rosetta’s words hung
Although not the only pair on the dance floor, Lucas and Rosetta became the center of the dance circle. Two young couples looked at each other, embracing and gazing passionately.Lucas placed his left hand on Rosetta’s waist, while the other was taking his lover's hand. He can smell the fragrant roses wafting from Rosetta.“Were you dancing with another girl?” ask Rosetta. Her feet move up to the rhythm.“No. I'm waiting for you,” said Lucas. Though who doesn't know how to dance, Lucas doesn't want to dance except Rosetta.The red-haired girl smiled happily. Her hand touched her fiance's stern, before retouching his shoulder. Rosetta turning. Her dress's skirt is blooming like a camellia. Lucas's sign-in leaned back toward her.“Your Majesty,” call Rosetta. At the end of the dance, she glued her cheek to the warm bosom of Lucas.“Promise you won’t leave me,” she mumbled in a soft vo
“I don’t believe this!”They suddenly called out. In her hand, an orange letter had been opened. With a sunflower emblem and delicate tendrils.“Congratulations, Camille, you’re proposed to by the Duke Autumold!“ exclaimed Lily, rushing to her second sister and handing her the letter.Camille gasped. Squeaking bitterly. “He’s an old man with three wives! I don’t want to!”Before the whole thing went bad, Rosetta decided to drag her two younger sisters into the dining room. Now is not the time to bother with applications coming up, because even if Camille and Lily accepted one of the men, they couldn’t get married before Rosetta.It’s a family deal.“It reminds me, Rosetta got a lot of applications after her debut too, right? Even though all the flowers fill the front page, you still pick Lucas,“ said Lily at breakfast
“Stop whining like that, Alden,” reproved Rosetta as moves the nose plug to stop from bleeding out.“But you got sick from overwork. It’s my fault for not paying attention to you, My Lady. Though I was here all the time.”Now Alden’s eyes glistening as emerald glass-glazing. No matter how strong his body is, nor how fierce a firm face with a vertical wound across the left eye. That knight almost cried.“You may cut off one of my fingers as punishment for my negligence!” said Alden again. Now pull out the sword and give it to Rosetta.Rosetta's eyes expand. Watching the blade flash before made her shudder, quickly shaking her head. How could Alden ask her to do something like that?“Stop being silly, Alden!“Rosetta denied as she lays hand on the forehead. Don’t understand this man when he worried about herself.
“Oh, Lady of Marquess Graswall. No need to be so formal and sit next to me.“ Princess Sarah smile so nicely.“Thank you, Your Grace," Rosetta Rosetta sat down as the princess requested.Rosetta observed the entire table when a waiter poured a cup of rose tea for her. The cake tier is oval-shaped filled with sandwiches, scones, Madeline, and a variety of other snacks.Not only that, but Rosetta also passes the view around to see who’s coming. On Princess Sarah’s left was Duke Autumold’s daughter and Marquess Ellender’s daughter. On the right, there’s Rosetta and Count Eagerton’s daughter.There’s nobody Rosetta knew, so she thinks this afternoon’s tea should be very exclusive. Because only the daughter of a nobleman with great influence is invited.“It’s good to see you here, Lady Rosetta,” said princess Sarah. That pleasing tone of voic
A bow as big as a palm from a surprise Rosetta startled. Her surprise made the girls around her confused. “What's wrong, Lady Rosetta?” Emily asked. Rosetta blinking. Then glanced back at the shrub not far from where she was sitting. There’s the discomfort the moment she pays attention to detail. It might be a beast or something might be threatening the Ladies? “There’s something strange,” said Rosetta in a low voice. Suddenly everyone was looking at the same spot. They saw the bushes move faintly. A moment later, a big, pink ribbon rose again in a second and disappeared again. “Should I check?” Alden who stands three steps behind Rosetta advances. Prepare to hold the sword handle at the waist. “No.” Rosetta didn't answer. It's Princess Sarah. The black straight-haired girl looked at the bushes, as if she knew who was behind it. Her jaw hardens, then pulls the fan from pocket. O
Rosetta fixed the white cravats on Lucas’s neck, as well as his undercollar clothing. But how that possible happen when Lucas’s personal butler was a perfectionist about putting his clothes on?“It’s …,“ Lucas avoided the look by Rosetta.“Oh, never mind. Come sit. By the way I want to say something to you,“ Rosetta says. Smiling sweetly at the joy of waking.“Incidentally, I also have something to talk to you about,” Lucas said as well.Rosetta frowned. During the course of the conversation, Lucas never once looked her in the eye as usual. The young man was busy turning his eyes, or glancing at the door. The previous thought faded, giving way to curiosity.“Uh, what is it?“ ask Rosetta.This time Lucas really looked over. “Come on in.”Rosetta followed Lucas’s gaze. From a door opened by Alden, st
His male instinct said Lucas had to kiss those sensual thin lips. So he did. At first he intended to stick it for a while and then apologize, but the sweet look of the princess melting because the kiss made Lucas feel even more alive.It’s a big mistake, Lucas knows that. But he doesn’t care at all. To hell with the future Duke Riverdale. Don’t care if he’s Rosetta’s fiance. Lucas wants this girl.Princess Sonya doesn’t know what else to say but enjoy drowning in Lucas’s tongue games. The young, golden-haired hansome man who was always with Lady Rosetta now kissed her full of love.“Your Majesty,” whispered Princess Sonya in the middle of the kiss. Her face heated and their breath met.On the other side, Flora rushing went into the room. He saw Alden that didn’t leave his place on the Rosetta’s side.“Did she really wake up now?“ asked Flora.
Flora scoffed, looking hesitantly at the basket. Though, she accepted it.“Okay. You can wait in the living room,” Flora said. Escort Lucas and Princess Sonya to a room next to Rosetta room.“Thank you, Flora,” said Princess Sonya, sitting down and widening her smile. Was countered by that cynical look from the instant maid.“I’m quite sad. Lady Rosetta was very ill. I fear the lady will never awaken again.”Suddenly Princess Sonya broke down and took a handkerchief from her pocket to cover her nose.“Lady Rosetta is a strong girl. She’ll recover soon,“ Lucas replied, “I know that.”Princess Sonya was stunned. Looking at Lucas telling of the diseases Lady Rosetta had been able to cope with. That tone implied pride was curiously painful for Princess Sonya.The girl with short hair touched her left chest. All the while her h
Lucas's feet steps to the hall of Rosewood castle. As expected, the knight at the entrance is holding back a girl who insisted.“Please help me!” The girl yelled, insistent.“No way!” The two soldiers were ready to drag the girl away, before Lucas emerged from the hallway.“Stop!” shouted Lucas. His heart pounded as he looked out at the front door, watching over whoever was there.Two uniformed knights carrying a girl with short black hair. Lucas’s heart seemed to burst as soon as it did.“Did you not know that she was King Nicholas’s daughter?” asked Lucas. His pace steadily approaches.The two soldiers looked puzzled. They were ordered to close the doors for any guests except the nearest one. Even so, they also ordered by Alden that the Princess must not come.“Sorry, Your Highness. She could not come in,“ replied one of
The young man with golden hair and deep black eyes gazed at his beloved’s face in bed. Her cheeks were flushed with fever, and a small towel was wet to her forehead.In these circumstances, Rosetta looks pretty weak. So different from the independent, elegant, and beautiful impression that is usually seen when she appears in public.Who would have thought that a beautiful girl, the Marchioness and Duchess Riverdale to-be had frail bodies? Even today, the doctor has given up to check what is wrong.Guilt got into Lucas’s heart. He didn’t expect the misunderstanding made Rosetta got sick like this. Because Lucas couldn’t explain what had happened properly, Rosetta got miserable.“Leave us alone,” Lucas instructed all the maids in the room.“Yes, Your Majesty.”Five minutes later, the room was empty. Leaving Lucas holding Rosetta’s hand tighter while kneel
“They said lady Rosetta, your fiancee, did not wake up after having fainted a week ago.”The Head of the Household, Maximilian Ash, reporting to Lucas. The tall man in the glasses who had been serving Carleton's family for twenty years felt compelled to tell the rumors he had heard.Lucas who had previously looked out of the window turned immediately. His facial expression stiffened and his jaw hardened.“Did something bad happened before?” asked Max, his nickname. “They said Lady Rosetta was too shook up of something so be that way.”“Prepare the horses! I’m leaving to Grasswall right now,” Lucas said shortly.Despite his confusion, Max hunched in and turned out to do the young master’s bidding.Meanwhile, Lucas turned to the waiter to pick up his official clothes and robes. In castle Coldine, Lucas was alone because his father and stepmother wer
“Mmhhmm, Lucas,” Princess Sonya whispered as she bit her lip as Lucas was touch her sensitive area.Rosetta’s head whirling now. The whirlpool of pain increases in her chest, plus zhe’s forced to see the make love between a young boy who’s the center of her world and a lowly foreign girl.Not that Rosetta hated the stupid princess, but if she hadn’t seen this dream, it would have been a pop.What mistake has Rosetta made for being punished in this way? In the past, Rosetta was almost never involved with the royal family. But suddenly everything changed since the debutante party.“Lucas, how dare you??“ faint Rosetta with wet eyes in tears.The soft hisses and moans will echo through the room. The sounds of love became sharp thorns piercing Rosetta’s ears. Torture her slowly.Lucas Carleton was the only man who Rosetta loved, and now he’s making love to
The floor shows a big crack like a black hole. Suddenly Princess Sonya pushed her off and then Rosetta fell without a chance to fight back.When will this nightmare end? It was a question that filled Rosetta’s head as she fell into the darkness.An entire body numb. Numb is no joke. In the infinite darkness without the end, she is alone. Without Flora that will accompany, or Alden who ready to protect. Totally alone.Only the pain of the heart remains in her chest. Loyal companion in every sorrow. Rosetta’s only got herself.The girl just wants this nightmare over before she goes crazy. Rosetta just wants to wake up from sleep, so she can run to Lucas’s castle to protect her from Princess Sonya.However, it seems that the heavens or whoever sends a gift of future dreams to Rosetta will not allow that. It’s like you’re forced to spend hours at the opera that you hate. Can’t get out, n
The dark-haired girl pushed the people aside. Being stubborn to get off the bench. No one’s holding her this time, so Rosetta can walk right up to the altar real quick.“Stop!” shouted Rosetta, “Please stop this marriage!”Princess Sonya hugs her arms around Lucas's. They were both standing at the altar, opposite the priest. Rosetta was screaming, whimpering, trying to pull Lucas over, but it seemed no interference could stop the ceremony.“You are now legally married to each other.“ The priest said after Princess Sonya and Lucas pinned each other annulary with rings.Rosetta turns around. Not to see Princess Sonya and Lucas kiss each other. Cheers of joy shot up to the ceiling. Her legs are weak, she collapses instantly. Her knees were sore and her chest was hurt so bad.Rosetta looked up, staring at the dome with an angel painting. But now the angels look back at Rosetta. Wit
