"So, what really happened, Rosie? Were you really touched by Prince Nicholas?" asked Meg, the youngest of their cousins.
"Can we talk about something else? I always feel sick every time I hear his name," Rosie replied while covering her ears.
Meg nodded. "Alright… how about we talk about Duke Aslan instead? I heard you stayed in his castle for a few days, right? Can you tell us a little about him?" she asked.
"Didn't you say your father had no interest in introducing you to Duke Aslan? Why do you keep asking about him?" Rosie asked suspiciously.
"Well, if my father isn't interested in him, but it doesn't mean I have to be uninterested too, right?" Meg replied, making the other cousins giggle.
Rosie frowned at her cousin's words. She wanted to scream in front of them, saying that Aslan was hers! Rosie knew that was very childish, even though she was older than Meg. Still, jealousy could get to anyone.
