37. Dark Corners

A couple hours earlier.

"Okay, would you like me to braid it?"

"Yes, please." The princess replied giddily.

"Alright," Vae chuckled. 

She took the hairbrush and brushed all the hair to the side, choosing the princess's right side. After she was done, she dropped the hairbrush and proceeded to neatly braid all the hair into one big braid.

It was a bit of a hassle at the start as the princess had thick hair but it got easier towards the end. "All done." She announced.

"It is so pretty. Thank you Vae." Vae watched the princess arch her head from side to side, admiring Vae's work.

"Don't thank me," she said with a blush. "It is my duty. I will go tell the servants, you are ready to eat and bring your food along with me. I will be back in a few minutes." She bowed and walked towards the door.
