"Oh you are awake princess!" said Anisa as soon as I opened my eyes. "Get the bath ready!"
Anisa helped me up and took me straight to the bath room.
All the maids were running here and there. Some bringing different oils, some bringing more fresh flower petals and some massaging my body.
After the bath I got up and went to the changing room.
"Remove the dress from the closet." said Julia.
Warsi brought the dress that the prince had gifted me.
"Okay princess put your hands up." said Julia.
They all started to get me ready.
After 5 hour or so at evening, there was knock on the door.
"Princess, The third prince is here for you." said a maid.
"Yes, give us minute." said Anisa.
I wore the shoes and Belle brought the mirror.
'The dress that the prince brought for me was really pretty after I wore it.'
"I look pretty." I said.
"Of course you do!" said the always cheerful Anisa.
'Was that my outer voice?'
"But I- no nevermind." I said with a little gloom on my face.
"Princess, please do tell us what is bothering you." said Julia with a kind tone.
"Umm... you see Julia this may be the first time I m having an actual appearance in public... and I have to talk with other people.... I m kind of nervous. What if I mess up?" I replied with anxiety.
"Everything will be fine princess, after all it's you."
"Thank you Julia."
"Come to think of it isn't Princess going to be 13 after a month?" Anisa interrupted.
I smiled and went to the lobby where Jinwoo was waiting.
Jinwoo blushed a little and forwarded his hand. "You look dazzling today."
"Ah, Thank you my prince. You look quite a lot handsome too today." I chuckled.
We went to carriage and departed to the imperial palace.
The prince stepped down and held his hand out to escort me. I accepted his hand and continued walking when a man that worked in the palace ran towards us.
"Prince there is a problem! Please come with me ASAP." said the worried man.
"Ah! Yes I will be there." answered Jinwoo.
"Anathe, I will escort you inside and then take my leave."
"Yes."
"You can announce our presence now." Jinwoo said to the guards.
"HIS HIGHNESS THE THIRD PRINCE AND HER ROYAL FUTURE CONSORT ANATHE DE EL LUCIFER HAS ARRIVED!" announced the guard giving me goosebumps all over.
Jinwoo held my hand and we entered inside. All the eyes were on us. The attention I was getting was making my anxiety worse but I tried to calm down.
"I will take my leave now." he whispered.
"Ah yes"
I nodded at him goodbye and turned my face back to find something not so pleasant.
