The number of soldiers had doubled and now we could not leave without an escort. In fact, each member of the family was personally assigned one. In mine, the only familiar face I knew was the knight Leroy Guillan. I was happy to have him by my side, especially now that he was secretly helping me learn sword fighting. If mother found out, we would be in big trouble.As far as Angela and Keith were concerned, they didn't show that their situation bothered them.

In the meantime, much had happened. Mary had received a letter from her son, announcing that he would be returning occasionally with the Dracoris royal family for the birthday, as the royal family's assistant painter. Mary had cried tears of joy, her son was blossoming and that was all that mattered to her. She hoped that her daughters, too, could blossom and be happy. Every night, before going to bed with her husband, the Duke, she kept repeating how time passed too quickly, how she felt she had not been able to enjoy the time with her children.

Dazzled by the beauty reflected by those who ruled them. The color of the Vassethier family was blue and the whole family was dressed in it. The dress of the princess was simple in appearance, but in the light, it shone, it sparkled thanks to the many inlaid gems. She also wore a crystal and gold tiara, with a blue sapphire in the center, and a small, discreet ring on the index finger of her right hand, also made of gold with a sapphire.

Thetia got closer to François Alexandre and Marie Anastasie, and even asked Rafael De Arteaga's permission to exchange letters with his eldest daughter, Bianca.
