"He'll be here any minute!" Prince Algis told Adriana the time of Cyril's arrival.
Adriana still did not want to meet Cyril. She wanted time to think about how to treat the young man, her brother when they met. "How did you know he was coming soon?"
"I received a message from General Adelman at Cyril's residence. He and General Adelman are coming this morning. Probably after breakfast!" Prince Algis stared at the entrance to the tearoom.
So it was not Adriana he had been waiting for, but Borneo who had brought the news that Cyril and General Adelman were coming to the palace. Adriana's heart was a little hurt. She felt that she wasn't worth much, even though she was Prince Algis' soulmate. Was soul mate just a status she had earned to be at the prince's side?
"Is that so? Well, I'll be happy to take a look!"
Prince Algis smiled happily. Then he kissed the back of Adriana's hand and thanked her. "Have you had breakfast?"
