I refuse

A sigh escaped between Ria's lips. 

"It was exhausting to pretend like a loving older sister through out the whole day nearly" she murmured in annoyance. Rolling her eyes while settling down on the bed. Evening had approached. Darkening the sky outside. "Your Highness?" Out of the blue, knocking sounds echoed. Attracting Asteria's attention.

That voice owner was Lila. It sounded as if she had some information to notify. "What's wrong?" The young woman voiced in response. "The Crown Prince is here to meet you, Your Royal Highness" Lila apprised, only to hush down the Fifth Princess. This was bizarre. It was dark outside.

It was not an appropriate time for a male to step into a female's chamber. Especially when they were not even engaged. "I will come out! Just a second please!" Ria pleaded and got up from the bed promptly. Inhaling a deep breath and exhaling it to soothe her hatred for the man whenever she encountered him.
