83. Dionne's ally

"Did you deliver the letter properly to the second prince's palace?" Dionne frantically asked. She hastily stood and welcomed the person who entered the door.

She obediently took the woman's belongings and carefully laid them on the table. Then, she waited for her to take off her cloak so she could hang it on the coat rack.

The woman took off her hood. A beautiful tanned face with soft features, long eyelashes, a small and straight nose, bow-shaped lips, and eyes shining as brightly and golden as the sun. Her hair as green as the leaves in springtime cascaded on her back, the ends reaching her waist. A few locks above her ears were tied on thin braids on both sides and on their ends was a lace decorated with a pendant the same color as her eyes.
