"How did you know?" King Rutland said.
Kaylee giggles. "Before I came here, I saw three tea cups. I do not believe a commoner dares to seat besides two powerful Kings... I just guess it should be a royal member with a rightful heir, a crowned prince or a princess like me." She explains. The two king look at each other in a serious manner then look at the table. There they saw three beautiful tea cups and they can tell that it was used. They look at each other again and they sigh.
When suddenly, they laugh in joy. "Our daughter sure is a genius of geniuses!"
Kaylee saw a headache coming but stops when she felt another presence move hidden in the dark except for the shadow guard, of course.
She already felt since she first entered the room but did not saw any malice in it but instead a mixed emotions hidden beneath. She does not dares to make the other reveal that person's identity since the person in front of her are the Kings who has high martial arts at most. So, she is pretty sure the person who hides in the shadow is the owner of the third cup.
"Tomorrow will be your coronation day, be ready with that." King Lincoln said with a smiling face.
"Hmm." Kaylee smiles and silently drinks her tea enjoying the taste every sip.
"It sure is! My dear sister loves tea!" Kaylee stops drinking and looks at the one who talked. She was surprised not because she knows her, but because she dares to show up today. In the eyes of everyone, she is surprised because the one who talked is somewhat she knows and unexpected at most.
She stands up and the smile on her lips got bigger.
"It is only for my free time, nothing else." Kaylee said. She looks at her father and daddy, she saw their eyes staring at her while fleeing away as if telling that they can talked in private without them. There is nothing to be shy of.
Kaylee giggles, so do her. "It's nice to meet you, twin sister."
Kaylee nodded. "It's nice to meet you too, Violet."
Violet smiled and immediately hug Kaylee tightly. It makes Kaylee shocked and starts to hug Violet too.
"Finally, I can hug you..." Violet whispered in between her breaths. Her eyes started to moist and little by little her tears flow. "I really dream that one day, I can hug you and call you sister anytime I want. Without hesitation or anything." She honestly said.
"But it came true, right?" Kaylee wipes her tear that will almost flow from her eyes.
Violet nodded repeatedly. "Yes! Yes! Yes!" She said sobering.
They didn't talk after that but silently hug each other silently until their legs bend. Still, they hug each other not minding the fact that they are sitting on a cold floor. The atmosphere is not awkward at all but silently harmonious instead.

Near from Lincoln Castle, a man who wears royal blue with a hint of gold mask and a plain white sleeve and pants. In his shoulder, there is a blood showing that it has been hit. He looks at his surroundings and making sure that no one follows him.
He sighs in relief and look ahead to see a building.
"A castle?" He asked himself. He climb the nearest tree and taking care of his injured shoulder.
"It seems you've been hurt." A soft woman's voice sounded near from where he sat. While he stiffened and look at his surroundings.
"Who are you?!" He shouted and stays on guard.
Above from him, a lady stares at his injured shoulder. She giggles. "Look above you, idiot." She said.
The man look above and saw a lady staring at him with pity.
"Crown Princess!" It's Princess Kaylee!!! Why did I bump into her?!
"Oh?" Kaylee nodded. "You recognize me, how amazing." She added. She just came back to her room after she met her twin sister officially and did not thought that there will be a special guest today. And this is a real deal!
Kaylee looks at his face. He has a scar on his face but still can't hide the fact that he has good features.
"Why would a shadow guard of Prince Junho be here?" She asked him curiously.
The shadow guard stiffens. "You... How did you know?!" He asked surprisingly. He keeps his identity well hidden then why would a mere princess from a side kingdom know his secret especially when it comes to Prince Junho, his master?!
The truth was...
"It is a secret on how I heard it. Well, I am a Crown Princess after all. I have many connections around Aslyntian Continent. Is the answer satisfy you?" Kaylee said in a teasing manner.
"Oh right. Here." Kaylee throw a bottle to him and he catch it with ease.
"This is a pill... A pill from Ghost Doctor!!!" He said and open it to smell the fragrance of the pill. His eyes shine and he look at Kaylee with new respect!
"You can have it." She said lazily but still found it amusing. The shadow guard immediately drink the pill with excitement and his wounds healed by 70 percent!
Wow! It is a miraculous pill!
"Do you know why I gave you this pill?" She asked him.
The shadow guard nodded. "This pill has it's price." He said.
Kaylee nodded. "Since you are aware of that, just be my shadow guard for the day of my coronation day. It's easy-peasy. Go tell your master to let you have a day off for two days. If he says no and you are not still here tomorrow early in the morning then kill yourself."
Shadow Guard nodded. "Yes, I will."
Kaylee was about to leave when she remember something.
"What's your name?" She asked.
"Ani is my name." He said. Kaylee nodded and close the window after hearing his name.
"Ani... Make sure you come." She whispered and lay down the bed to enter her own world.
If she only knew that Ani will be the bridge to make her life more interesting that makes her to lose composure...
