"What did you say?" Aurelia took a step back with fear. "This is not possible." She took a step back and shook her head. Nathan.. His smile image passed in front of her eyes and she held her dress tightly.
"I wonder when your father would accept our relationship Auli. he was not that apprehensive when he chosen me as the crown prince but when it comes to his daughter..'' The laughing image of Nathan haunted her and tears started to fall from her eyes like a dam had been broken. Elene looked at the maids and then at her cousin in worry.
She placed a hand on her shoulders and Aurelia held it tightly. She hugged her sister as if she would not clung to her, she would be drifted away by the storm.
"It is okay. Everything will be okay." Elene had never felt like a liar before but in this moment she knew, she had never been this indecisive before.
