The Prince Is Actually a Princess?!
Chapter 16
Meanwhile Helena & Cedric: (sitting across from her, completely frozen)
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
(slowly blinking) …Did I just hallucinate that?
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
(mouth still open, fork hovering in midair) I—I don’t know. I think I’m having a stroke.
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
Turning to Isla, voice dangerously calm) What. The hell. Was THAT?
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
(smirking, lazily sipping her tea) What was what?
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
What was what—? (gestures wildly at the door) ISLA, YOU WERE JUST FLIRTING WITH ADRIAN LIKE—LIKE—
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
(whispers, still in shock) Like a woman possessed.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
(dramatic sigh) Ah, so you noticed?
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
(slamming hands on the table) NOTICE?! HOW COULD WE NOT NOTICE?! You were practically EYE-F***** HIM—*
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
(whispering, shaking his head) Eye-devouring. It was beyond eye-f*****.*
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
YOU. HATE. HIM. WHAT CHANGED?! WHAT DID WE MISS?!
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
(placing a hand on her chest, looking mystically serene) Sometimes, dearest Helena, life gives you a revelation. An epiphany. A moment where everything you thought you knew shifts—
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
(horrified) What happened last night?!
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
(whispering, clutching his shirt like he’s witnessing a tragedy) Did Adrian do something to you? Did you hit your head? Is this a curse?
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
(dreamily) You could say… I have been enlightened.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
BY WHAT?! A DEMON?!
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
(smirking, swirling her tea) No, my dear. By something much, much better.
Helena & Cedric: (sharing a look of absolute fear and concern)
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
(whispering, leaning in) Isla. Be honest. Did someone switch your brain in your sleep? Is this black magic? A spell? Blink twice if you need an exorcist.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
(laughs, shaking her head) No spells. No curses. Just… a newfound appreciation.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
(whispering) For ADRIAN?!?
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
(grinning) Oh, you have no idea.
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
(grabs Cedric’s arm, whispering harshly) We have to fix her.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
(nodding, still pale) Before it’s too late.
