Chapter 18 - LADY-IN-WAITING LIST

I step down carriage and went inside the lobby. Anisa, Greana and the other young maids came running towards me. They all looked anxious.

"Miss you are not hurt anywhere right?"

"Did the prince do anything to you?"

"Are you feeling alright?"

"Should I bring you some warm water?"

"Shall I prepare a hot bath?"

They all started anxiously chattering at once.

"GIRLS!" I shouted. Everyone went silent.

"I m sorry miss. We are just worried about you." said Anisa.

"I can see that is the truth but please talk one by one." I replied with a smile.

"Yes miss. So how was the meeting with the 3rd prince?" asked Anisa.

"It was fine." I replied.

"I heard he is very handsome." said Greana with curious eyes.

"Ah yes, that is true." I said.

"Can you describe his appearance miss?" asked one of the maids.

"He had marvelous blue hair with a tint of silver colour resembling the emperor. His eyes were sparkling golden like the empress's eyes. He had a kind but a powerful aura around him. He is tall and slender but strong and graceful." I said.

"You are really observant miss." said Greana.

"I have to be. All noble kids are taught this from a very young age. This is a way to survive in this society." I replied.

"I see." said Greana.

"Anyway we have to go and start packing." I said.

"Packing?" asked Anisa with a confused look. All the other maids and manservants were confused too.

"Miss Anathe will be shifting to the 3rd prince's castle." said Julia.

"M-miss Anathe will shifffttttt!????" Everyone was surprised.

"Yes it was a imperial order. It can't be ignored." I said.

"I see then we have no choice, we will start packing." said Anisa with a grief.

All the maids and manservants got busy packing. I decided to take a nap.

After 3 hours I got up. It was afternoon. Everyone had completed packing my stuff. Anisa and Greana got me ready. I took the suitcase that was eligible to carry and departed to the Rihana Castle, the Castle where the 3rd prince was residing.

Upon reaching I saw prince Jinwoo standing outside. I stepped down from the carriage to greet the prince.

"Greetings to your highness, the third prince. May the sun shine on you." I bowed down.

"Yes greetings miss Anathe." he replied.

He took my hand and kissed it and then escorted me to the lobby.

The lobby was far more beautiful than the cold palace and Lucifer's estate. It was sparkling because of the sun ray's reflection. It was charming.

As I was admiring the place, Prince Jinwoo touched shoulder. I flinched and turned back.

"You do not have to be scared it is just me." said Prince Jinwoo.

"Ah yes I was a little surprised your highn- I mean Prince Jinwoo." I replied.

"I see. Anyway the maid will escort you to your room. Get relaxed and unpack your luggages then at evening 5o'clock meet me in the garden. Ah also prepare the lady in waiting list and tell the maid to deliver it to me. I will see to it." Said Prince Jinwoo.

"Yes your grace, then I shall go."

"Jinwoo"

"Huh? Ah! Yes silly me! Prince Jinwoo."

The maid with freckles escorted me to my room. The manservants brought my luggages.

I unpacked all my stuff then took a paper and pen to write the list.

"Let's see, Julia is a semi noble and I m close to her so I can write her name. Next Anisa also has a semi noble title because she once took care of 1st princess. Whom should I add next?" I mumbled. According to the imperial rule a woman who is or yet to be wife of a imperial royalty should have least 4 lady in waiting.

I was lost in my thought for a quite long time trying to find the two more ladies who are eligible to be my lady in waiting.

Then suddenly I remembered about marchioness Belle who had recently lost her daughter who was around my age at that time. She would be more than happy to be my lady in waiting.

I wrote her name on the list.

'Next who's name should I write?' I wondered. I heard from Julia that Baroness Warsi was looking for a job to time pass. I wrote her name.

"Alright all the names completed." I was proud of myself.

"Maid" I called. The same freckled girl entered my room. I handed her the letter and told her to deliver it to prince Jinwoo.

I had some time before meeting the prince. I thought of decorating myself a little.

I brought out my pink frock and wore it. I took out the pink and golden ribbon and tied my hair into a pony tail. I applied a little bit of face powder and gloss lipstick. I still had 30 more minutes so I took out the book I was currently reading.
