shall i give a; orange bloosom or a yellow rose

how shall I tell papa

a few weeks later

the princess and the young warlock are somewhere in a grass field enjoying a picnic.

The princess looks down do Lucas who is laying on her lap and playing with her hair. how shall I tell papa?

We can just wait until you have a child right. He'll have to know-

Smack Lucas, you are of absolutely no help to me.

Why don't you just tell him, most girls your age already have a fiance right.

I highly doubt papa would even care if every girl in the world had a fiance by the age of seven none the less some noble girls in his empire.Plus papa is still busy with the aftermath of the Anastacius situation I don't wanna stress him out anymore. I'll think about more later.

The next day

Claude is currently handling official royal paperwork and Athy is currently sitting next to him.

Papa, I was thinking I'll be eighteen soon and most girls already have a fiance by my age.

but you aren't most girl you're the princess of the empire.

Yes and one day I'll rule over this empire so I think it would help if I had someone to help me.

but I'm here so there's no reason for that.

I don't want papa to continue to work when I take over. Papa should only be drinking tea and going on boat rides with Athy.

Haaa, I understand then Felix, please bring a list of young noble candidates around the princess age.

Felix looks at the princess.

What are you waiting for get going Felix?

A couple of days ago I saw the princess wearing a red ribbon with the letter L on it I wasn't quite sure why there was an L on it but I thought perhaps it could've been a design symbol of the shop. Until I passed by the young warlock wearing the same ribbon but instead it was blue with the letter A. I went to Miss Lilian to see if she knew anything about it.

Miss Lilian, I yelled to stop her in the hall.

Sir, Felix.

Pardon me Miss Lilian but do perhaps knew if the young warlock and the princess are courting.

Sir Felix, did perhaps witness something happen between the young warlock and the princess. 

Felix shook his head no it's nothing like that I saw them wearing matching ribbons with each other initials.

Oh I see, I've been thinking the same thing but when I inquired the princess about it she said she wasn't.

Back to the present

Felix leaves the room leaving only the princess and Claude.

Actually daddy I was thinking it would be better if I was already familiar with the person that way we would be better at communicating. It would also be good if this person was someone we could trust.

Do you have someone in mind?

Yes, it is someone you've met and someone I can trust.
They are around the same age as me and there is no problem with his statues. It's -

Claude stopped as if he realized who this might be, I will not allow it.
