77 Prior Engagement?!

I can feel the stares of the people around me. I am wearing on my head the blue rose that prince Regaleon just gave me this morning.

It was just after Regaleon's little speech, no wonder everyone's eyes are on me now. I look around and see the mixed faces of surprise and bewilderment.

When my eyes passed by grandpa Robert, he had a face that was saying 'I thought so'. Richard who was besides grandpa had a genuine smile.

My eyes passed by the officials and ministers that looked unsatisfied. I straightened out myself walked towards Regaleon. I stand up beside him with pride and dignity.

'It was prince Regaleon who chose me. Even if I am an illegitimate child of king father, I won't let them look down on me.' I thought.
