Selecting a Crown Princess (2)

"Prince Regaleon, king father has instructed us sisters to tour you around the palace." Veronica said with much enthusiasm. "If you just please follow me and..."

Veronica's sentence was interrupted by prince Regaleon.

"Thank you for the offer." Prince Regaleon replied. "But princess Alicia had offered to show me around first."

"I did?!" I was taken by surprise with Regaleon's words. I looked at him curiously and he blinked rapidly before anyone could notice.

"Oh yes!" I said, going with Regaleon's words. "I mean yes I did."

Veronica was shooting me daggers with her stare.

'It looks like I foiled one of her plans. Well actually it was prince Regaleon that foiled her plans.' I muttered.

Regaleon noticed how my step sister Veronica was looking at me.

"It would be best not to be late the next time if you had plans." Regaleon said with a regal and cold voice.
