600 Words
"Good Morning Father, Mother" Julianne greeted her parents when she was sitted while Roman sat beside her.
"How was your night Julie? Her father asked not looking surprised. Her stepmother looked like she had just eaten something sour while the rest of the guest had their eyes bulging out of their eye sockets.
"It was great father, what about you?
"I have never felt refreshed than last night" Lord Wilmot said his chest swelling with pride.
"Her Majesty has arrived" announced the Royal Knight, the door opened and in came the queen with Odin saying something to her in a low and hush tone. Everyone stood up and bowed to the Queen, Odin pulled out the head chair and she sat on it before raising her hand for everyone to sit. Her eyes searched for her son in the midst of the guest and she found him sitting in between two young women at a far Conner near the Lords family.
The maids began to dish the food on the table and the guest chatted about business and other stuffs but what happened was unbelievable.
Everywhere dropped dead silence when the saw Roman pick up a tray of crispy potato and vegetables and dished some in Julianne's plate, the maids where quick to strengthen up and continue with what they where doing pretending nothing happened as the where taught to never lose composure when on duty.
Julianne could feel the eyes of everyone on her, sweat tickled down her spine and her anger boiled, why was he doing this to her.
"It's the food not to your liking Julianne" Roman asked when He noticed she had not touched her food.
Julianne noticed how He would call her Julianne in public and Angel in private 'Such a pervert' she cursed silently.
"Julianne" Roman called again when she remain silent, he liked the effect he had on her. Before Julianne could find her voice Grace said:
"I think my sister is overwhelmed, I mean crispy potato and vegetables are her favorite so she is surprised on how you knew" even though her chance of getting the prince to notice her was 10 percent, Grace still wanted to try even though it meant get on the good side of her sister publicly.
Roman smiled, off cause he would never forget that. His eyes stay on Julianne who had begun eating for a while before his eyes slowly move to Grace.
"Are you her voice" the question caught Grace off guard, she had prepared her mind for his questioning but this was unexpected.
"I....I.. I was looking out for.."Grace stuttered.
"Enough! You can't even answer for yourself let alone answer for other" Roman interrupted.
"I am sorry your...." Grace tried to apologize but was interrupted.
"Not another word or you regret it" shutting Grace up he turned to Julianne who had stopped eating. "Should I feed you Julianne" he asked.
Julianne stood up and said "I think am full" she turned to her father and said "I would love to return to my room as I don't feel to well" which her father nodded and she dashed out.
Roman watched her leave a smile adorning his face which disappeared when she was out of sight.
The Queen cleared her throat to get everyone's attention.
"Lord Wilmot Williams my son will be here till the celebration is over and I hope you treat him well"
"Off cause You Majesty" Lord Wilmot answered bowing his head.
The Queen stoop up to leave and said to the Roman before she stepped out.
"A word with you son"
