*** (Almost six years later.) (Elias' POV)
"Prince Elias, Lady Willow has requested an audience with you." Alfred came in, with a tray of cakes and mint tea, a favorite of Rebecca's.
"Let her in," I ordered, immediately cleaning up my desk, which had papers of the government affairs on the border. Letting out a small sigh, I thought back on what happened the past couple of years. I had convinced the military institute and Father, that I wouldn't leave Rebecca until she had her induction at sixteen, which meant I stayed for another year.
After the ball, almost six years ago, we danced in the garden as we could hear the music since they played louder, probably per the request of the King, but we still didn't know. Kara and Lou Young became good friends of ours, and thankfully that Princess had someone else to cling onto.
However, both girls are still best friends, that gossip about anything that interests them.
