Fake Princess
CHAPTERS 144
“ He threatened to expel me to Rithia if I didn't come on time today. But it's actually my cousins' fault. They were stunned because they were in the city— until this morning could not choose clothes.”
The guard looked at us behind Devan's shoulders. Me and Bella both smiled stiffly. He must have realized it, my inner self. He must have recognized me, or realized how similar we both were. He'll know something's wrong.
But the guard only grinned at Devan, promising not to say anything to the Earl of Rithia. I could hear voices from inside the room, and the murmurs of hundreds of people as Devan pushed the door open, a bit so we could sneak in.
I don't know what's going on in the front of the room. Although the chairs were arranged in neat rows all over the hall; the people were still standing, blocking my view, only white columns of ceiling support were visible. I could hear footsteps on the upper balcony, and realized there were also crowded with people. The only road was formed in the middle of the room. I pushed and pushed forward through the chairs to get to him, Bella and Devan behind me. Various offended-pitched murmurs sounded as we passed by the people, but I ignored them. It could be said that I fell onto an open road, pushed forward again as the others overtaken me.
No one noticed it. All eyes were on the front of the room where Riana was kneeling on a short stage in front of the throne. His dark-colored hair was draped in a sparkling wave on his back, and he wore a long red robe whose waist was decorated with white mink fur, which widened around his kneeling body. A priest of the Nameless God raised a hand above Riana's head, blessing her. Even from behind Riana looks majestic, elegant, all the traits that a princess—a queen should show.
There was one moment, one second when I could have hesitated, when I could have turned around and left. After all, Riana had trained almost as well as I did in the things a ruler should know. And he seemed worthy of the role, much more deserving than me or Bella. No one really saw us, we could have left without anyone knowing we had been there.
I didn't even stop.
“ Stop!” I screamed again as all the heads turned to look at me. The priest's hand fell silent over Riana's head. “ He is not the person you think.”
I had already arrived in front of the room, just a few steps away from where Riana was now standing and turned to look at me. His eyes widened, and I saw his neck gulp down before seeing a figure advancing from the first row seat, where the other councilors were seated.
Melani came forward before me, forcing me to stop.
Melani's dark hair, the color was exactly like Riana's hair, now that I realize it, rolled over her head in a crown-like braid.
