Ronnie was marveling at the room she was in. She'd been marveling at everything from the moment they had flown into the city.
From the horseless driverless carriage looking vehicles to the different tinge to the sunlight, and the trees where the green of the leaves didn't look quite right. A shade she hadn't seen anywhere on earth.
The Palace - and it was an actual Palace - was made of a blue stone but still had a modern feel inside. Her bedroom was the size of her whole apartment, then there was a sitting area, full bathroom with the most giant bathtub she had ever seen and a double shower with a vanity. There was also a large dressing room that had been stocked out.
She kept walking from room to room and looking around. The sitting area had french doors that opened out to a small balcony. Her shopping was in the dressing room and the handmaid, my lord, hadn't arrived yet. She was unpacking some of the things she had bought when she heard a greeting from the front door.
She rushed out to greet a woman about her age. She smiled. "Hi-ya."
The woman responded, "Hello, Lady Veronika. I am Alina."
Alina ushered two more women into the room.
"Please call me Ronnie," she said. The woman was very beautiful in a cold kind of way. The other two women were younger, around sixteen.
They got into it straight away, Alina, a no-nonsense person.
Ronnie felt flabbergasted by the experience. Alina took Ronnie through how one should greet the King and Queen while they made her bathe, ambivalent about her nudity in front of them, soaking in strong bath oils. They wanted to wash her hair but she refused.
Alina drilled into her the etiquette in conversations and things to keep in mind during a meal with the royal family. Ronnie really wished Brand had been there.
She exhaled dramatically after she had recapped everything back to prove to Alina that she had got it. She toweled herself off - she had been able to shoo them away from helping her.
The woman seemed satisfied with her retention.
"When is Brock coming here?" She asked as they sat her down at the vanity to do her makeup.
"The Prince will have to meet you there."
"What about Brand?" Ronnie asked.
"He is with the Prince," she said simply.
Alina and the girls barely spoke when she engaged them and offered nothing on their own. She wasn't getting much from them either. It was strange, she felt their general frustration when they felt she was being difficult, but that was all.
She talked them out of doing her hair, opting to get them to describe the style they had planned. She pinned it up herself and then glamoured it to look neat. She went blonde, letting little tendrils frame her face. Noone knew her here.
Ronnie let the girls help her into the dress, though it wasn't difficult - it just seemed like the proper thing to do.
The dress they put on her was gorgeous, it was a rich burgundy brushed silk-like fabric. It felt different from any fabric she had felt. While it was high-waisted, it fell close to her hips, so her hourglass shape wasn't lost. The neckline was high, but the bodice was perfectly shaped, and she thought it made her boobs look amazing. It was floor length with long sleeves that sat a centimeter past her wrists.
They put a very sparkly necklace and earrings on her. She saw them eyeing her extra piercings.
"What do you think?" She asked the women. "Sufficiently 'pretty womaned'?"
