I rolled over, my brown hair mopping at my face, "Get ready! The Unseelie Court is coming for the Summer Solstice tonight!" Mom called from behind the cherry wood door. I scurried off the bed and my designer with her mass of flowers, walked into the room. "Good morning, Petunia." I mumbled. "Oh dear! So much work to do!" She guided me to my private bath and dumped in the gardenia smelling salts, and perfume. She took off my pink night gown and dumped me into the elegant tub. She weaved roses, tulips, and gardenias in my hair and stained my lips a pretty light pink. "Your sister's already ready, late sleeper." She muttered. "Hopefully, you meet a attractive late sleeper too. Makes my job easier." She lifted me out of the bathtub and put a towel around me. "Here." She put a light pink flowy ball gown/mermaid with a sweetheart cut dress with black lace along the arms.

Drifting into the ball room, she danced gracefully around the tables and to the breakfast bar. Smirking, she picked up the faery wine bottle. It was far strong then any human wine. Pouring herself a glass, she heard a amused voice from behind "You know your only 17, you shouldn't be drinking wine even if you dont age anymore in a while." A shiver went down her back as she turned around and came face to face with a Unseelie Court fey. Studdering she managed to choke out "Why... Why are you here so... early?"

"Because your parents 'gave me a royal invite'" He stated.

'Moran' I thought chugging down the small amount in the glass.
