Chapter 15: Crown Prince's Princess Consort

Iris's POV

"Thank you" I thanked the two maids who helped me clean my dress, it's fascinating what magic can do, using water magic--one of the maids using magic to get the water off my cloth, and the other maid who had wind magic--dried my dress, now it look fine.

Which remained me of something---according to the story, the heroine--which is my half sister, Charlotte possesses light magic.

The villainess on the other hand have only fire magic, the magic aptitude test Is not until we're 16, which is next year--nah who cares!

I stood up and exited the room heading toward the hall

Upon entering the hall, only the sound of the door opening could be heard, I wonder what happened??

Following everyone's gaze, my eyes landed on a person with white hair, facing his manly and cold back, even if I'm far behind him, I can feel his cold and murderous aura, wearing a dark red knee length coat, with white polo underneath it and white pants..

A clap of someone disturbed my--everyones thought, turning to where the clap came from, the king stood up and headed to the young man with white hair

"The show is already over, now come and greet you mother a happy birthday, son" when the king turned the white haired fellow--then I saw the same red ruby eyes I saw way back in the past...

With his cold face and cold aura he walked with Elegance,firm and pried

He greeted his mother with his cold and gentle voice wishing her a happy birthday, he then turned around and faced the crowd

"Everyone bow down to the crown prince, Victor magnolia" his the crown prince? I'm not very sure if his the same boy I met 5 years ago in the forest during the winter, is he or is he not?

As the man spoke, we all lowered ourselves to greet the crown prince, with his simple arise word then we all stood up again

The music continued, the crown prince just sat on his throne--- beside the king's, all young ladies I see eyed him with admiration, longing, lust, happiness, shyness-- shouting at him to give them attention, checking their dresses and make Up's if they look decent to the crown prince

But I on the other hand, just sat on my chair casually drinking not minding anything at all, I plan to leave the banquet early but with the crown prince here, it's not right to leave the hall

With my legs crossed, my right cheek leaning against my right fist, looking so bored, looking around if there is anything worth looking into

Standing up, I started to walked around to ease my bored body and mind, while walking around with a glass of drink in my left hand, dully hanging it in the air, my ears caught something interesting

Duke Azalea ordering the servant to help Charlotte look presentable, it simply means he plan to sent his daughter to the crown prince in order to get favor, your to confident to your daughter's beauty, idiot! Well this will be a nice test to see if the crown prince is an idiot to fall in love to someone like Charlotte

The music started to play, Young masters started to invite the lady they want for a dance, thinking a plan to escape someone tapped on my right shoulder, I turned and saw the man who helped me

"Nice to finally meet you lady iris, I am Cain Jameson, young Duke jameson" kneeling on the ground with one knee, he took my right hand and kissed the top of it, rising up again, I curtsy with my right hand on my left chest, so his the famous young Duke I've been hearing of, the young Duke who urged with Duke Azalea in my stead, well I do own him, so

"Please to be your acquaintance, Young master Jameson, I am Iris natasha Everhart, duchess Everhart" why Is my name so long? Well my dear beautiful mother gave it....to me, I trailed back to the day my life was perfect, but as deep as I go, as the pain in my heart hurt

"My lady?" Being pulled back to reality, I looked up to him with my cold stone face

"Are you alright?" No I'm not saying it in my mind, I nodded to him

The two of us slowly walked while talking about certain things like politics, The kingdom, gossips

The two of us stopped when someone called out to us, by the name of duchess Everhart and young Duke jameson when we passed the group of Duke azalea with his family talking with the crown prince

The two of us turned, it turned out the crown prince was the one who called out to us, walking near them

"We greet a good evening to his highness the crown prince" Cain and I said in sync and at the same time-- bowed to him

"Arise" I didn't looked at the Duke ans his family

"I believe this is our first official meeting lady iris" the crown prince said, I felt something behind his words, but I just shook it off and replied

"Yes, I believe so your highness" returning his gaze to the Duke and his wife, Cain and I turned to them as well

"I believe you already meet duchess Everhart and young Duke jameson, duka azalea" the Duke just gave an awkward laugh and nodded his head in a stiff motion

"I heard that his highness the crown prince is choosing his princess consort tonight" Duke azalea's wife-- Seirra inoki spoke, eh, why so Impatience

"Yes, my parents mentioned that to me" charlotte stepped up and acted shy and cute with a little blush on her face to complete the act, let's see if this crown prince is an idiot

"Does his highness had someone in mind?" Hmm I gotta hand it to her, her acting is very convincing---for idiot, and fool's

"Yes, as a matter a fact, I believe I have the perfect person" Charlotte smirked smugly the same expression is written on her mother and father's face, cain and I looked at each other and sighed at the same time
