219 ※ Duchess Remington's Ball [IX]

"YOU ARE ALSO A ROYAL PRINCESS YOURSELF, Princess Natasha," Donovan pointed. "We are on the same-"

"I'm not one of the Emperor's offspring, Your Royal Highness, Prince Donovan. We are not on the same level!" They got a little startled by my cold tone. "I'm very conscient of my position in high society, there's no need to try being humble."

"Can we... Talk?" Evangeline asked.

"I thought we were already talking," I pointed, trying to cut any of their tentatives out.

"In private," the 4th Prince added.

{"Give it a try. Just... To know what they want,"} how annoying. {"Everything is annoying to you."}

Sigh. Okay. I hope I don't regret listening to you.

After nodding they guided me to the back of the manor, probably knowing the way to the garden. I just followed right after them. "You can talk freely," Donovan started. "No honorifics needed."
