Princess Lyn: Fleeting Dreams

A few hours later Ball -

"You don"t talk much, do you?"

Lyn was starting to form an opinion about the man named "Rhys . " Since he became her instructor, they spent a lot of time together . She had to admit that he was very good at it though, he teaches a lot better than Kazuya .

He was an excellent swordsman, and capable leader—as far as she could tell – a dedicated son and heir to his family . When Lyn discovered he was from the n.o.bility . Honestly, it surprised her . Considering how he usually dresses, n.o.body could tell . His crude language too . But she supposes there is a saying you can"t judge a person by their outer appearance for a reason . Of course, alongside these traits, he was arrogant, the type Lyn disliked . He was the type of man who believed he was a gift to the world .

The smile on his face at times felt sharp like thorns . It was different than Kazuya"s honest smile or Brothers embarra.s.sed or amused expression . Though sometimes his smile looked like a self-deprecating smirk, most of the time, his smile . But at times she sensed something behind it . Something kind .

Kind .

Lyn lifted her hand to brush away a strand of her hair The weight of the jeweled pins felt heavy and Lyn wanted to remove it . But before she could, she felt Rhys hand brush across her hair, touching the jewels .

"This is a fresh change for me . Sometimes I wonder how people can stand around and chat for so long, despite obviously hating each others company," Rhys said, "It makes it easier . "

Lyn rolled her eyes, as she knew full well who he was insulting . The woman named Beth and Rhys had dispute lately . Though Rhys does not mention it, Lyn knew it was about her . Rhys is already busy enough with his day to day work . On top of training her, the time he spent fooling around has disappeared .

The fact was: he didn"t even mean to be especially demeaning, or even insulting . He just spoke his mind . But Rhys never knew how much a power a persons word held .

He most likely never considered it .

Lyn did not feel hurt by his words . She just didn"t like this aspect of carelessness of his character very much .

"And I have to say; this dress fits you very well . The color suits you . "

"Thank you," Lyn thanked .

"So polite . And yet you stood up for me in front of your family recently . If I didn"t know you better, I wouldn"t believe I fought you before and lost . "

She said nothing to that . Below the small balcony, they were standing on, people were dancing .

"By the way, a little birdie told me something interesting . It seems like your brother the First Prince has an illegitimate child . "

At that, she turned to him eyes wide, "Is that true?"

"Who knows? But that"s the rumor going around in the underground right now . Since the media hasn"t caught wind of it yet, n.o.body can be sure . However, from what I see, it"s real — a little boy with blonde hair and maroon eyes who is around seven years old . The description is far too accurate to be a lie, don"t you think? "

. . He"s right . That description is too good to be just mere rumors . But if that"s the case then what about Gabrielle? Doesn"t Andrew have more responsibility to take care of the seven-year-old since he"s the oldest? This is bad, what will happen with those two? Just when they"ve sorted things out . No no, she has to remain positive . Her brother? With an illegitimate child? Despite what anybody would say - Lyn knew her brother well .

Her thoughts broke off when she felt his hand brush across her cheek .

"What is it?" Lyn questioned .

His lips curve to a smile, "I"m glad that I"m a n.o.ble; otherwise I wouldn"t be able to accompany you to the ball,"

Lyn looked down, "I"m only using you," because she was . Lyn wanted to spy on Allen; that"s why she came here . Lyn looked towards the direction of her fiance who was surrounded by people - rather women to be exact . A deep sigh escaped her lips . She understands it can"t be helped, but it still frustrated her .

"But you know, isn"t it strange that you"re sneaking around like this as his fiance?"

"Like I said, be quiet," Lyn muttered . Lately, she heard some unsettling rumors about a woman being close with Allen . She wants to confirm it with her own eyes, "I have seen nothing so far, so maybe it is a bluff," she paused in mid-sentence . Right at that moment, a woman with and eyes made her way over to
Allen .

"Prince Allen, where have you been?"
the woman clung to his arm .

"Forgive me; I was too caught up in the discussion with Mr . Han . "

"Forgive us this one time for stealing him away from Lady,"

Lyn frowned, why are they acting in this manner?

"Rumor has it that the lady is his fiance . "

"No way! Didn"t he have one since he was younger?"

"That"s the thing; people say it"s her . The hidden fiance . "

"Well, I guess that explains it . "

A complicated look appeared on Lyn"s face, are they serious about that? Though she doesn"t appear often, she"s made several appearances in front of the public alongside Allen before . Her and this woman don"t share any common traits, and their heights are different . Why do people think this way?A few hours later Ball - You dont talk much, do you?
