Transmigrated Into The Body Of A Warrior Princess Chapter 7

Author (Sam)

Hey guys

Author (Sam)

Let's continue with the story.

. . .

Janette Winslet(Grace's Lady-in-waiting)

Aileen.

Aileen (Grace's Chamber Maid)

Yes, yes lady Winslet.

Aileen (Grace's Chamber Maid)

Did you call for me?

Janette Winslet(Grace's Lady-in-waiting)

Ah, yes. Can you go and see what dress the prince is wearing?

Aileen (Grace's Chamber Maid)

Why, yes. I will do as per your demand, lady Winslet.

Janette Winslet(Grace's Lady-in-waiting)

Hmm. And Julia.

Janette Winslet(Grace's Lady-in-waiting)

Go and tell her to prepare warm water for the lady.

Aileen (Grace's Chamber Maid)

Yes, Lady Winslet.

A few moments have gone by..... yet the lady hasn't arrived.

Is she scheming something?

I've heard a lot about the young lady, Esmeralda. Yes, I had already sent spies who were always keeping an eye on her.

After all, a prince can't take chances for a mere marriage of convenience.

A crown prince's life is worth more than that of a princess, especially if the princess is infamous for scheming against other aristocrats...her suitors.

I was getting agitated.

This archduke is definitely taking me for granted.

I can't stay here and waste my time.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

Where's the lady at, Duke?

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

I assume that you called me here to make a mockery out of the royal family... Isn't it, Duke Karlos?

Duke's expression changed.

He looked perturbed.

The Duke, before speaking, gave a studied glance at the crown prince.

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

Apologies, your highness.

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

Matteo. You must go and ascertain if your sister is prepped or not.

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

Yes, father.

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

Ahem, excuse me.

Matteo stands up from his seat to go in Grace's chamber (they're in the dining hall).

But suddenly a clip-clop sound is heard from afar.

The sun hits the dining area (from a big window present there).

Esmeralda or to say Grace's hair shines in the sunlight like golden threads bound together.

Everyone looks at her in shock.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

Is that—?

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

*proud smile* My daughter is indeed one in a million.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

*looks at the duke then back at Esmeralda's silhouette coming closer to the dining table where they all are sat*

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

*bows a little* Pardon me your highness, you had to wait for so long because of me.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

I should've paid more attention to the time.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

*looking at grace intently*

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

Ahem, Ahem

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

uhh... So you're the princess?

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

The one who Duke Karlos adores.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Yes, your highness. I'm Esmeralda Seraphina Grace.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

You can call me Grace or Sara.

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

You don't even have that many nicknames. The only name you have is Grace, which is mom's.

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

Matteo! Mind your language while talking to your older sibling.

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

We're just seven minutes apart, Father.

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

It's not such a big difference.

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

Matteo, You're still younger. Don't be fussy in front of his highness the crown prince.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

🫵🏼 Me?

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

Yes.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Your highness, I'd like for us to converse properly.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Would like to visit the garden?

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

*stunned*

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

*stunned*

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

*shocked* We ? Together?

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Why? Weren't you the one who came to visit your fiancé first, Your Highness...???

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

I—

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

💭 Is she scheming against me? Probably. She is calling me to the garden to do something fishy.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

💭 Should I go? Or stay here? But if I go then I'll get a chance to discover more about her true intentions and I can expose the ducal family.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

As per your convenience, My lady.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

We must descend.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

But let us have a full meal first.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Oh, yes of course.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Our chef not only makes staples but also good dessert recipes.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

I would recommend you try the chocolate cookies.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

Chocolate?

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

What is that?

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

I've never heard of such things before too.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

???

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Uh... I actually gave the recipe to our chef. He'll prepare it soon, until then we shall dig in...?

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

Sure.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

I never knew that the young lady could be so talented. Like they say, beauty with talent.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

I'd like to try more recipes from the lady, after our marriage. *smirk*

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Of course, your highness. I, too, will love to try new recipes with you.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Together we can learn even more.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Am I right, Prince Killian?

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

Yes, Absolutely right.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

I was wondering why they called the lady ‘unrefined’ and ‘boorish’...but I'm sure it's not the lady's fault.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

💭 What does he mean by that? He's definitely trying to make me look bad by intentionally putting me in an awkward position to get a reaction out of me.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

After all, losing a parent can be a devastating experience.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

Especially if you're just a ten-year-old child.

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

Your highness, I'd like for you to not talk about grievous matters of the past.

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

It's a harmonious day for our families. You came back from war after such a long time.

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

We should talk joyously.

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

The crown prince shouldn't talk too much...

Matteo Lorraine Wilder

You might lose your energy, Your Highness.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

It's great to see such a loving family as yours, Duke Karlos.

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder

I'm gratified that, Your Highness, the crown prince is easeful.😊

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

*smiles slyly*

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Your Highness.

Everyone shifted their attention towards Grace.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

*sighs* I am well aware of my past mishaps, but I've changed now.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Everyone goes through a time where they are immature and take impulsive decisions as an adolescent.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

I may not be the most decent human being, but I'm not the worst either.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

*focused at grace's direction*

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

You can resent me all you want, but you'll soon realise that we're quite alike.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

I am unrefined, but straightforward.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

And so, i can give you my word. I'll make sure to be a crown princess, who everyone looks up to.

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

And not fears, but respects.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

💭 “I'll be sure to be a person who everyone looks up to, not out of fear, but by respect...” These words, sound so wise and familiar as if I've heard it for the nth time.

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

💭 She wants to change..... for me?

Prince Killian Celeste Thoren

Why?

Esmeralda Seraphina Grace

Huh?

Archduke Karlos Lorraine Wilder
