Once Again

Aurora smiled as she nodded, glad that the empress did not mind her rude comment. She picked up the glass of wine and drank a big gulp to calm her jittery nerves. She was feeling like she was melting with the heat of the eyes of everyone.

"Are you here to have fun with us or to look at the princes?" asked a girl whom Kath had never seen before. She did not like when others tried to be closer to her when they were not.

"That could be the only wise reason I could think of!" I shrugged my shoulders when they did not stop staring at me.

Let's improve their relationship. If that could also help her in living a good life, the deal was fair enough. Kath nodded at the thought of it.
