“How many months will you stay here, Sebastian?” Stephen asked as he played with his glass of wine. “About four months. I haven’t decided yet.” Sebastian replied curtly as he watched Marie drink her wine.

Marie was staring up at the sky and ignored the chats they have. She is genuinely more interested in astronomy than the Prince himself. She might judge him quite right. It is impossible for her to talk to someone whom she find very disagreeable.

“Marie, you look you have clouds of thoughts.” Stephen remarked as he watched her friend gaze around. “Indeed I am, Stephen. You know exactly what am I thinking.” Marie replied and smirked. Stephen let out a giggle after he watched her closely in her eyes. He knew exactly what she is thinking. She is criticizing the prince in every aspect possible.

Sebastian stared at the mysterious beauty sitting in front of him. Her smirk was impish, yet very alluring. She is acts annoying to him, but for him, she makes him attracted to her more.

“Your grace, tell me about yourself.” Sebastian spoke with his eyes staring right to Marie. “Are you talking to me?” Marie asked in disbelief. “Yes, of course.” “Pardon me, but the three of us here are all Your Graces.” Marie replied sardonically. Sebastian heard the tone of sarcasm and decided to talk to her the way she is talking to her. “Forgive me for my honest mistake. And Miss Marie, would you mind telling me about yourself?” “No, I won’t mind of course. First of all, your Highness, I am very interested in riding horses. I am deeply fascinated with Astronomy.” Stephen snorted. “Forgive me.” Stephen said and looked at the Marie with a satisfactory smile on her face. Stephen cannot help but smile back. “Astronomy. Very strange for a lady to be fond of such subject.” The Prince remarked. “Oh, I grew fascination with it just now.” Marie replied, and stood up. “If you excuse me, I would like to go back to my bedchamber. I am restless already.” Sebastian nodded and Stephen said, “I would like to accompany you to your bedchamber, Marie.” “You may, Stephen.” Marie replied, curtsied and walked out of the porch. Stephen did the same thing and followed her.

“I have to say, you were pretty good in annoying my cousin.” “Oh, it’s my talent, I guess.” Marie joked and the two of them laughed. “My cousin might be intimidated by you.” “Intimidation is good, enamor is not.” Stephen looked at her and remarked, “You think he will fall in love with you?” “I hope not. I dread for that.” Marie replied. Her face grew scared when she said it that made the two of them chuckle. “You should be careful, then, and good night.” Stephen said as he planted a kiss at Marie’s forehead. “Good night, too, Stephen.” Marie replied and she went into her room.

Marie wasn’t annoying with the Prince, she was intimidated by him. His stares were irritating, but at some point, she was delightfully flattered for she acquired the interest of a Prince. Marie pushed her thoughts away and changed to her sleeping gown. She was restless, and she needed sleep. There are a lot of things going to happen yet on the following days.

“Good night, your highness.” Mary curtsied and left the porch. “Good night, too.” Sebastian replied. He was alone in the porch thinking how delightful Marie is, and her witty replies. She was indeed a beautiful lady whose intelligence is more sufficient than the others.

The Prince decided to go back to his bedchamber, and rest. There is still a great deal of events that is going to happen.
