Chapter 4 - The Kalis Palace

The next morning came in really fast and as soon as Camellia woke up, Mary came in and with the help of some other maids, they got Camellia dressed and ready to leave for the kingdom of Kalis.

Logan was also dressed and was already waiting for her at the carriage and as soon as he saw her, his heart skipped a beat.

Although the dress she wore wasn't too fancy, it still brought out her beauty and as the morning sun radiated on her blonde hair, he couldn't keep his eyes off her.

She walked towards the carriage, and on seeing Logan she smiled and bent down in courtesy, "Good morning my Lord." She Said with a bright smile.

Seeing that, Logan bowed his head a little, "Morning Princess....I hope your night was bearable."

Camellia, "Yes it was your highness....thank you for your care."

Logan, "well then, we should get going now if we want to arrive at the palace early." Saying that, he stretched his hands forward and upon seeing that, Camellia smiled slightly and then placed her hands on his.

With her hand on his, he assisted her as she climbed the stairs of the carriage and sat down at the end. With her inside, he then entered and the carriage started to move.

Mary and other maids who had assisted them, rode in another Carriage and they followed them at their back.

The entire ride was quiet and isn't what we would call boring but it was something.

Camellia took some glances at Logan and saw that he was busy with some work as she saw him with some documents and papers.

She then Turned her head and behaved like she didn't look at him at all.... little did she know, that even with his eyes kept on his works.... his mind was still monitoring her Every movement.

Few hours later, they got to the Kalis palace and Camellia had to say that all the rumors about how big it is was really through.

The huge gate opened for them and they entered with the other carriages at their back.

As you approach the entrance, you are greeted by an enormous gate made of intricately carved iron or stone. Its imposing size gives a sense of resplendent grandeur, with elaborate designs showcasing the craftsmanship of skilled artisans. As you pass through the gate, you find yourself standing in awe of the palace's front courtyard.

The front of the palace is a spectacle to behold. Towering marble columns frame the entrance, adorned with ornate carvings and delicate filigree work. Massive double doors made of rich mahogany or oak stand before you, their surfaces polished to perfection. Above the doors, a magnificent crest or coat of arms announces the noble lineage of those who reside within.

Stepping into the palace, you are immediately enveloped in a world of luxurious extravagance. A grand foyer welcomes you, its marble floors gleaming under the warm glow of crystal chandeliers. Intricately woven tapestries adorn the walls, depicting scenes of history and mythology, while precious artworks are strategically placed to catch your eye.

Moving deeper into the palace, you find yourself in the heart of its splendor: the grand hall. This vast space is reminiscent of a ballroom, with towering ceilings supported by exquisite pillars, carefully designed to maximize light and space. Elaborate frescoes depicting scenes of celebration and triumph adorn the ceiling, while the walls are lined with gilded mirrors that reflect the beauty and grandiosity of the surroundings.

The hall is furnished with ornate, plush seating arrangements, inviting guests to relax and enjoy the festivities and conversations that often fill this space. A grand staircase, leading to the upper levels, curves gracefully at one end of the hall, drawing your gaze upward to the magnificence that awaits.

As you explore further, you discover lavish bedrooms fit for royalty. These chambers are decorated with sumptuous fabrics, the finest silks and velvets cascading from opulent four-poster beds. Intricately carved furniture, luxurious rugs, and delicate lighting fixtures further enhance the regal ambiance.

The palace also boasts private gardens and courtyards, where meticulously manicured lawns and vibrant flower beds provide a serene escape from the grandeur inside. Ornate fountains, glistening in the sunlight, add a touch of tranquility to these outdoor spaces.

The carriage stopped at the front of the palace walls and Logan then came down the carriage, And also helped Camellia down the carriage.

Coming towards them was a plump but beautiful woman dressed in a royal attire with jewelry and gold around her body.

She was accompanied by Five maids and two other women that dressed as lavishly as her.

Coming closer to her son and new daughter in-law, Queen Gina said, "You two have finally arrived.... that's good."

Seeing her, Camellia bent down in courtesy, "I greet her highness the Queen."

Queen Gina, "No need for the formalities....you are now my daughter in-law.... which also means that you are like a daughter to me."

Saying that she turned to Logan and then said, "You can leave your wife too me.... I'll show her around the palace and instruct her on what she Is supposed to do but don't forget that her welcoming party is tonight so get ready and be there on time."

Hearing that, Camellia was a little confused, "Welcome party?

Queen Gina, "Yes....you just got married to my son so it's right if we welcome you warming... it's how things are done here."

Hearing what his mother said, Logan nodded and then turned to leave..but then stopped in his tracks.

He turned around to look at her one more time and he saw her pleading eyes that begged him to stay but he just turned around and left.
