The silver princess

Chapter fifteen: the opal dragon

After the fight Rowan took me to a chamber different than the infirmary, the room has chromatic walls that looked like glass with dark wood floors and a canopy bed with silver bedding and white translucent curtains.
" I hope you like it Katerina, I spent most of the week working on it for you" Rowan said shyly as he walked to the centre of the room.
"Rowan, it's exactly what I would want. Thank you so much" I said into his chest as  I hugged him, he chucked and hugged me back.
We hugged each other for a long time we both didn't want to let go, Rowan hadn't looked me in the eye since the morning before my dragon spirit burst out. He pulled away from our embrace to look in me eyes, he almost jumped out of his skin.
" uh lia, I think you might want to look in the mirror" said Rowan almost breathless.
I turn and walk to the vanity across the room, I almost jumped out of my skin as well, my eyes had changed from a warm amber colour to a luminescent opal colour, at first it looked peculiar to me but the more I stared at it the more it looked like they were always and meant to be that way my hair was still blonde but it took on a white colour with silver shimmer in the light, almost my whole appearance had altered itself to fit in my new spirit I was stunned, I looked the same but extremely enhanced. Just then Begira, Mavis and my dragon appeared
" I am Ashalle, Delia. " spoke the dragon in a serene voice as she bowed and came to join me by the vanity
I hadn't been able to fully see her in the dark of the throne room but in the light she was magnificent, she stood three heads taller then me a bit smaller for dragon standards but a perfect size for me, her talons and spikes in her elbows and head looked of pure silver and her scales gave off an opal colour, her wings tucked neatly at her side.
I'd never seen a dragon look so angelic before most dragons her very large and were almost always red, green or blue. The rare ones were black but never a opal colour.
The new spirit also changed Mavis and Begira. Mavis grew a lot bigger to which if she rested on my shoulder her wings would almost hit my cheek and her wings had a copper glow to them, Begiras fur was now a gold shade with her spots were a flat black making her look more ethereal and her eyes were a tropical ocean blue.
We all stared in the mirror at each other until Mavis finally beamed
" I don't know about you guys but I think something has changed a bit" giggling at her own joke, we all started laughing until Rowan tapped my shoulder, turning around he had a dress in his arms.
" it's time to get ready for the revelation of the real princess" he said handing her the dress.
"Rowan I don't think I'm ready to do this" I said
"Delia your more than ready, I'll be outside to escort you to the throne room"Rowan said warmly
the dress was a a evergreen colour with halterstrap and a criss cross rooshing on the bodice and crystals placed sparingly on the skirt. Lacing up the back of the dress it was perfect for me a servant gathered my hair in into a loose Updo so parts of my hair spilled out to frame my face. There was also pieces for my spirits to wear Begira wore gold hoops in her ear and the kingdoms crest on a madalion  around her neck, Mavis wore gold trimming around her wings and the king made gold and diamond smith work through the night to quickly make something for Ashalle, she wore a gold elvish crown on her head with a dark onyx in its centre.
Outside my new room we met with Eli and Rowan.
Eli looked at me and was stunned to the point his mouth dropped open
" come on princy pull yourself together" Rowan nudged Eli
Both wore formal wear Eli was in a black tux with a blue tie and his family's crest on a medal, his hair was tied back with some braiding, it suited him. Rowan was in his captains uniform with a sword at his side, his hair was slicked back to make it look presentable. Both offered an arm and I took both as all our spirits trailed behind us having their own conversation. None of us knew what would happen in the coming days.
