As I walked to the Royal Library with the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, it kinda felt like some fancy royal family outing. You know, the kind where everyone stares and gossips like they have nothing better to do.
And yeah, they were gossiping.
I could hear whispers. See side glances. People nudging each other like, Ooooh, what's she doing with the prince?
Like it's any of their business. We? We didn't care. Not one bit.
Rahegar walked ahead, all prince-like and regal, while little Prince Kael clung to his robe like a baby duck following its mother. And me? I just strode behind them with my squad, looking as cool as ever.
Then, we finally reached the library doors.
The royal guards standing outside immediately bowed.
"Your Highness, Crown Prince Rahegar."
"Your Highness, Prince Kael."
"Lady Ceceilia."
Ah, yes. That's me.
Rahegar barely glanced at them and said, "Open the doors."
