Soon enough, Aura arrived at the palace. Although she had caught a glimpse of it before, this was the first time she was in it and seeing the true grandeur of it's nature. From the fancy fountain, to the plants bothe exotic and beautiful. It was the kind of environment she'd breathe in peace with nature and she loved it, she loved him. Wait, she didn't it's too soon to say. She thought catching herself quickly.
' well this is a good opportunity to talk about what I heard, I need to hear what he has to say about it. ' she thought with a sigh. ' but if it was true... Maybe it would not be so bad to embrace being with someone I have affection for. He is quite different from Francis, more attentive, even though he was cold to me and didn't talk much generally except with Francis. They are such close friends, it makes me wonder about their history.' she thought as the maid led her into the living room to wait to be served.
" Hold on" she called out elegantly before the maid left.
" My lady?"
" Could you tell the Prince that I asked for his presence? I need to speak with him." She said looking serious.
The maid paused, " the Prince is currently in his study, if it's not an emergency...
" It is" she said immediately" my apologies for the interruption but it is, inform him of my request. "
" I will, meanwhile have a seat as he had informed us to care for your needs upon arrival ... Do you perhaps have any special requests?" The maid inquired
" None"
She smiled, " okay thank you. We'll be back" she said leaving with the others who were waiting at the entrance.
Aura sat down still silently observing in admiration.
Soon news about Aura began spreading amongst the maids, about her beauty, figure and elegance sparking jealousy and a fandom. Including a CP for her and the Prince versus that of Francis and her. It was a little chaotic.
The maid who was informed came to tell Clara the prince's current personal maid of the request and she left to pass the message on to him.
She arrived at the study and knocks asking for permission to come in which was granted.
" My prince, Aura has requested to speak with you urgently as it is important. She termed it as an emergency. " She said waiting for a response.
' is there a problem ' he thought worriedly. "Granted" he said breathing out a sigh of resignation. " He planned on avoiding her until she left but it's inevitable they'd cross paths so what's the use. Besides, they were supposed to be friends, he thought it was a bit selfish of him.
" I'll go inform her...
" No need"
" Yes my Lord" she replied taking a step back and leaving the study.
"Well let's go..." Ethan whispered to himself.
