The Lady's territory (1)

After playing for the whole morning, Alexander and I get up just in time for lunch. I comb my hair and wear a simple dress while he chooses the clothes for the day.

«See you in a few minutes,» I murmur before reaching the Lady's chamber.

A maid is already waiting for me, so we can immediately start working on my hairstyle. I keep it simple but of impact. Just like the makeup: I draw one tiny black line on my eyelids and apply a rose lip paint. It's barely noticeable, but it makes me look fresh and healthy.

The maid finishes braiding my hair and rolls the braids around my head. I just need a flower, and I'd look exactly like one of those villager girls.

Although, a jewel hair accessory is enough to remind everyone that I'm the Lady of Kyre.

«I'm ready,» I say while walking to Alexander in the waiting room.
