-IN ADRIANA'S ROOM-

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

(I was too busy thinking about Ryker and the food here, I almost forgot about the tea party tomorrow) *closed her eyes*

Then Ruby burst into Adriana's room, holding a stunning gown.

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

My lady...

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

I've found the perfect dress for the tea party.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*lounging on her bed, raised an eyebrow* That's... quite a statement piece, Ruby.

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*grinned mischievously* I know, right?

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

You'll be the belle of the ball... or rather, the tea party.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*Chuckle* What?? You're ridiculous Ruby.

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*pretended offense* I'm a fashion genius!

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Yeah! Yeah... now show me the another one that you are holding!

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

Ohh okay...

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*holding up a gown* Ta-da! This one's a masterpiece.

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

You'll be the queen of the tea party. *smirk*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*laughing* Ruby, you're ridiculous. That's a wedding dress!

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

Oh, is it? I thought it was 'Tea Party Chic'. *smile*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

You're trying to marry me off to a tea cup! *stare*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*thinks about Ryker* (WEDDING??... I WILL MARRY MY LOVLY VILLAIN OFCOURSE) *smirk*

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*giggle* Well, at least the tea cup wouldn't argue with you.

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

Well... Just try it on Na! I want to see how will you look in your wedding dress.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Um this is not my wedding dress by the way....

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Well okay... let me try! *going to try the wedding dress*

-AFTER A WHILE-

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*struggling with her corset* Ruby, help! I'm suffocating!

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*tugging on the laces* Almost there, My lady.

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

You want to look stunning, don't you?

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*Gasping* Stunning? I'll be unconscious!

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*laughing* Don't worry, I'll catch you.

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*smirk* I learned this at university – the art of dressing a princess in 10 minutes or less.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*Raising an eyebrow* What university was this? The University of Royal Pranksters?

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*giggle* No, the University of Ruby's Genius.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*Curious* Ruby, what did you study at university?

Ruby Coleen(FL'S Lady In Waiting)

*Smiling* The art of sass, fashion, and royal protocol... in no particular order.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*laughing* you are a true expert.

-THE NEXT DAY-

-The sun cast its warm rays upon the lush green garden, where the cream of the empire's nobility had gathered for an afternoon tea party. Elegant ladies, adorned in exquisite gowns and sparkling jewels, sat amidst the vibrant flora-

NOBLE LADIES: GREETINGS, YOUR HIGHNESS. *BOW*

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

*smile* Please take your seats ladies.

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*smile gently* You are looking so beautiful, Princess Adelaide.

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

*smile* Ah! Thank you lady Wellesley. You're too looking good.

Just then, a rustle of silk announced the arrival of Adriana

Her blonde-haired beauty and sapphire eyes commanded attention as she glided into the gathering.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*looked at Adelaide* (Ohh!! So she's the 2nd princess of the empire... What a beauty ✨_✨)

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Greetings Your Highness, it's an honor to meet you here. *bow and greets*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

(I totally forgot that I have to greet her ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ)

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*looking at her with frown*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

(She was the reason because of Edward was confused, huh? Who never even glance at her was thinking about her?) *clenched her fist*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*glance at her* (Why is she looking at me like that, Now what this little shít wants?)

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

The pleasure is mine, Lady Adriana. Wellcome to our little gathering *smile*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

(Little? Is this called little? Gosh this is a lavish and luxurious tea party, I've ever seen in my life)

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Thank you, Your highness it's an honor to join you. *smile softly*

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

*smile softly and sipping tea*

Adriana took her seat, surrounded by the noble ladies, who eagerly engaged her in conversation.

The sun shone brightly in the lush garden of Blackwood Manor, casting a warm glow over the gathering of noblewomen. The air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers and the gentle hum of conversation.

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*smile innocently* Well, Adriana, it must be nice to have a father who's a Duke.

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

But I suppose that doesn't change the fact that you're still just a plain girl in a pretty dress. *smirk*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

(AHH? SHE WANTS TO PLAY WITH ME HUH?) *smirk*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Oh, Lady Wellesley, I may be plain, but

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

At least I know how to dress for the occasion. Unlike someone. *grin*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Who seems to have mistaken the garden party for a circus. *looking at her*

Noble ladies: Oh my! How she said something like this... How bold of her!! *gossips*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*stunned* W... What do you mean?

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

(How can she insults me like this.) *clench fist*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

That outfit of yours is quite the spectacle, though I doubt anyone here will forget it anytime soon. *smile*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*Taken aback* How can you say something like that!

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

At least my family has a title worth mentioning!

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

True, but titles don't hide a lack of taste. Maybe next time, try to dress like a lady

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

It might just elevate your reputation a bit—if only you had one to begin with. *smiling*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*grit teeth* Adriana, it's adorable how you try to keep up with the rest of us.

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

But we all know that being a Duke’s daughter doesn’t automatically make you interesting. *smile*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*Raising an eyebrow* Interesting? Is that what you think you are, Sophia?

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

I suppose when your title lower than mine, you have to make a scene to be remembered.

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*fuming* You think you're so clever, don’t you?

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

Just because your father Duke Aurelius Valentina doesn’t mean you can look down on me.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

So you know that I'm the only daughter of Valentina!

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Then how can you call me by my name, lady Wellesley?

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

H... Huh?? *shocked* (Is she's the Adriana I know?)

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

And, my dear Sophia, I’m not looking down on you; I’m just standing above the fray.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

And you should know who are you talking to! *smile at her*

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

*glance at Adriana*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Lady Wellesley, Am I right? *smiling*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*grit teeth* Yes... Lady Adriana forgive me for my rudeness.

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

(I will surely return this insult to you Adriana)💢 *grit teeth*

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

[Was enjoying everything] *sip tea* Now, now let's not argue about minor things, ladies! *smile*

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

Let's enjoy our tea party? *looking at them*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

(She didn't stop this when Sophia was trying to insult me! She was literally enjoying this drama) *looked at her*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Yeah, sure Your highness. *bowed and sit on her seat*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

(I don't whether she's good or bad for me...) *sigh*

The conversation going like that

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

Well, it seems this gathering has turned out to be quite the success.

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

Thank you all for making this evening so enjoyable. *smile*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

(Quiet and success?? Really? I can't understand her)

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

*sigh* It truly was a lovely afternoon.

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

I must say, the tea was exquisite. *maintain her smile*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

I suppose I can admit that despite our little spat, it was nice to be here. *smiling*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

*glance at Adriana*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

(Just you wait Adriana) *clenching fist*

Sophia Wellesley(NL FL/Marquess Dau)

-The guests began to gather their things, the atmosphere light and cheerful. As they departed, the princess waved them off-

Adelaide Blackwood(2nd Princess)

Until next time, everyone! May your evenings be as delightful as this gathering. *smiling*

Adriana Aurelius Valentina(FL/NL Extra)

Thank you for a lovely gathering, Your highness *bowed and leaves*
