Third Person P.O.V
"Lilian York, long time no see." Claude said as he sat on his throne peering down at Athanasia, Ambrosia and Lily. "Blessings and glory upon the sun of the Obelian Empire." Lily said as she bowed down to Claude as the two princess stood there nervously. "I haven't been able to pay attention to my daughters due to my court duties. But still, Athanasia and Ambrosia has grown into two healthy children. The credit belongs to you." Claude told Lily as Athy had her head down.

'I'm scared...' Athanasia thought as Ambrosia, who stood one the left side of Lily made her way to her sister's side holding her hand. "Thank you, your majesty." Lily replied to Claude's words. 'Don't make me laugh! It's not "haven't been able to pay attention". It's you neglecting us! You completely erased both of us from your mind!' Athy thought as Rosia couldn't help but nod her head in agreement.

"However, from now on, I will be looking into both of the princesses' well being. There will be no need to worry." Claude said as Athy flinch hearing the news. 'What?' Athy and Ambrosia asked at the same time as they looked up at Claude. He looked down at them with a small smile on his face as Athy froze. A small smile appeared as Rosia looked at him with a bright smile causing him to flinch slightly before shaking his head.

'Did you smile? Rosia, I'm not seeing things right? Did he just smile at us?' Athy asked Rosia who shooked her head, her attention still on her father. 'No, you're not. He actually did smile at us. Although I must say, he needs to smile more often.' Rosia thought to her sister as Athy looked at her like she grown two heads. "Papa!" Rosia said as Claude looked down at her. Athy on the other wondered what her sister was going to say.

"You should smile more often. You have a very pretty smile." Rosia said with a close eyes smile as her sister looked at her with a frozen facial expression. 'Rosia! We're doomed! Pay us no mind! Thank you for ignoring us our whole like this far! Thank you for not being aware of our existence! Ignore what my sister said and please be so kind and continue to ignore our existence in the future!' Athy thought as Rosia shook her head at her sister's thoughts giggling slightly on the image that appeared in her head.

Claude shifted his attention to Rosia as she kept the same smile on her face. He shifted slightly before another smile appeared on his face only it was slightly bigger. He then turned towards Lily as he spoke. "Starting today, Princess Athanasia and Princess Ambrosia will be treated as proper princesses." Claude said as Athy face paled at the information.

Athanasia's P.O.V
'But you didn't acknowledge us as your daughters. In the novel, Claude admits that he never saw Athanasia and Ambrosia as his daughters... So what on earth are you playing here?' I thought to myself as I felt myself get pulled into a hug. My hands were still latched to Rosia as Lily hugged us tightly. "It's okay, princesses. It's alright..." Lily told us as she tried to comfort us as her body shake out of fear from Claude.

'I really hope so...' I thought as Rosia and I hugged Lily tightly mostly to try and calm her down. 'A few days passed, but Claude and I stayed the same. Well, Rosia had better luck than me because she's able to continue talking to him without being scared. I envy her courage right now.' I thought as we walked towards our father. "Papa!" Rosia shouted as she ran towards Claude stumbling slightly as he reached out an child her steady before letting go.

I almost freaked out when I saw him about to touch her but I let it slide seeing as he helped her balance. I walked besides Rosia as I stood besides her holding her hand. "I think you got a bit chubbier since I last saw you." Claude said as he looked at me. 'Dude, we met five days ago. What are you talking about?' I thought to myself as Rosia whistle in my head hearing my thoughts. 'Wait... Is what he's saying true?!' I asked her as she laughed at me. 'No, I just wanted your reaction.' She replied as I just shake my head at her.
