Briar & Damien ( @theartofruling)
Briar always got excited when guests from other courts came for a visit. She felt like she was always stuck at the palace with Arielle. If she didn’t get to travel that much it was nice to meet people who did. The princess was still up in her room getting ready for the dinner that night, Briar should have been helping her. But instead she was hovering just outside the doors of where their high lady was meeting the high lord of the winter court. She new that it wasn’t polite to spy but she was bored and she never got included in any stuff with the other courts. She was trying to look in through the cracks of the doors, but there was nothing to see. The voices inside were muffled as well.
She heard footsteps behind her and her stomach dropped. She was about to get in trouble. That’s what she got for being nosy. She turned around quickly and tried to look like she wasn’t panicking. She saw the man standing across the hall from her gave a small curtsy. She hadn’t seen him before, so she assumed he had came with group from the Winter court.
“Sorry sir, I wasn’t trying to spy, Arielle had a question for her mother and I was waiting to ask her. I swear. “ She looked up at him and back at the door. “But she seems to be in a meeting now, so I’ll just go.”
