AN ALMOST DISCOVERY

"I-I beg your pardon your majesty." Jasmine said with a frown not of frustration, but of habit.

The Queen leaned in closer even though both women were still very much apart on the table.

"I thought I saw something glow on your neck." Queen Rose pointed out.

"Oh yes." Jasmine gently dropped down her tea on the saucer and said. "It is a necklace that my mother gave me."

"Oh." The Queen said leaning back, her curiosity taken away. "Luna Maria would definitely give her child something that belongs to her."

Jasmine smiled stiffly.

"I've had it since I was a baby." She said as she touched the necklace.

It was good and the pendant was hidden inside the front bodice of her dress so Queen Rose could not see it.
