Visit to the Palace

Elisabeth's point of view:

The night went so fast that I didn't know how the sun was already shining all over the house. It feels like whenever we're together, I stop having recognition for the time.

But since it's already morning, I suggested making a house-made breakfast for both of us.

I went down to the kitchen and made two Spanish egg sandwiches, along with two cups of coffee. I'm not good at cooking at all, but still, I know some tricks.

When I was eighteen, I moved on to live alone. I couldn't support another year with my foster parents.

Well, I'm technically jobless and I don't have money. Lucky me, my brother forced me to accept his help until I found a better way to count on myself.

While having breakfast, we chit-chatted a bit, and we also changed some jokes about our daily life.

I told my brother some of my stories from high school, college, and even about how messed up I was whenever I saw the boy I was crushing on. He seemed to enjoy each and every one of my stories.

On the other hand, he told me some stuff about his life in the Palace. I was surprised to know that he and the future Alpha king are close friends and that he's soon-to-be the Delta of the Alpha king.

But what I was told by the end was an enormous surprise to me. He told me that I was invited to have a visit to the Palace.

At first, I thought it was just a joke, but when he took me out to shop for some formal clothes, I definitely was sure that he wasn't joking.

Oh my goodness, it's going to be my first time visiting the place where my mother used to live before she met my father.

Logan forced me to try about a hundred different dresses and suits to end up buying more than twenty formal costumes. The rest of the day went by the movement of an eye. By the next day, we were ready to fly.

I actually was a bit restless since it was going to be my first time visiting the Palace. Normally, a human-like me wouldn't be able to enter the Palace, but since I'm the sister of the future Alpha king's Delta, I'm an exception with only one condition, a horrifying one.

I wasn't allowed to see the location of the Palace, so I had to spend the whole trip blinded, and let me tell you it was about two days. The longest two days of my whole life.

The moment we land on this mysterious land. Logan took me into what seemed to be a car. It took about another half day to reach our destination. Before leaving the car, Logan released my eyes and took me out of the car.

Unconsciously, my mouth dropped open from the view in front of me. I was standing in front of the most beautiful Palace I've ever seen in my entire life.

The walls were designed magnificently with three main colors: white, gold, and brown. Not to mention the garden that seems to be a fallen part of heaven.

'' You'll have all the time you need to have a tour of the palace, and I'll take you by myself. But first, I'll have to take you to your room so that you start getting ready for dinner,'' Logan informed me while leading me inside through a hall,

'' What kind of dinner are you talking about?'' I questioned him. He answered my question with another question.

'' Well, do you remember when I told you that the queen and Diana were close friends in their early days?'' - '' Yeah '' was my answer.

"Since they were so close to each other, the moment she knew that you were coming with me, she decided to organize a welcome dinner in your honor," he explained. I was shocked and couldn't answer.

The moment we were in the room I would stay in while being in the Palace, I let out a gasp. The room was simply a vast version of my own room. For sure, it was a luxurious one and a better one than mine.

'' The room is designed to look most like the one you have in your house. By the way, the room next to yours is mine. Do not hesitate to visit if you need anything,'' he announced and all I could say was '' Okay! Thanks.''

For some unknown reason, I was feeling speechless, But I can not say the same for Logan.

Before he left, he announced, ''The rooms are soundproof, free to make any noise you want'' he said while laughing as he closed the door after him.

I did exactly as I was told. I started feeling free, making all sorts of possible noises. I was screaming and jumping non-stop. I was totally excited.

As much as I was excited to meet the queen, I also was horrified by the thought of meeting the royals.

Lost in my thoughts, I was when a knock on the door brought me back to life. It was the maid; she brought my luggage to me, then she left.

Just as she left, I went to the bathroom to have a shower. The cold water runs through my body, washing away all signs of exhaustion.

I simply picked a white dress, with no sleeves, and that covered till my knees to wear for today's dinner. For the make-up, I took all the time I needed to fix it.

I started by cleaning my face; it felt clean and fresh. Then I moisturize my face before applying a primer that would ensure that the make-up would stay as long as possible.

Then I moved on to a duo fiber brush to apply the foundation all over the skin and blend it into my neck. The next one was the concealer below my eyes. It gives me a natural-looking coverage.

A highlighter along the top of my cheekbones, on the cupid's bow, chin, and between the brows. Then I swiped the contour powder along the sides of my nose.

I applied blush to the apples of my cheeks, extending up toward my temples. Then a light pink shining shadow to the lids and just below the last line. Not to mention the fluffy blending brush to dust a soft brown shade into the crease and within a second it was all blended outward. The next step was to fill in my brows using a powder and swipe on black mascara.

Last but not least, the lips make-up, using a lip brush, I swiped pink lipstick on my lips, and I was finally ready.

For my hair, I used a clipless curling wand and a texturing spray beside a quick tousle through the loosely curled strands to have wonderful curly hair.

Just as I was done, one of the maids came to inform me that the dinner was ready, and everyone was waiting for me.

Before I could ask about Logan, he appeared right by my side, wearing a white suit that seemed to look like a match for my dress. The moment we noticed this funny coincidence, we both burst into laughter.

Logan led me to the hall where the dinner was held. It was a huge hall with a long table in the middle, full of all sorts of what seemed to be extra expensive food, and everyone was already settled in their seats and waiting for us.

My eyes ignored everyone but settled on the most handsome man I've ever seen. I felt like jumping through his soul just by looking him in the eyes.

He was doing the same as me, looking into my eyes through my soul. Some words ran out of his mouth but '' Mine'' was the only word I could hear, and all I needed to get was what was happening.

He was the one I never thought I would have - a mate, my mate.
