[Alicia Eldridge. The novel's Villainess! She doesn't look like a villainess to me though.] She thought, staring at the cute and innocent looking girl.
Alicia Eldridge turned to her and their eyes met. Aristia froze from being caught staring, not knowing how to avert her eyes now that she had been caught.
She passed a polite nod at her and looked away as if she hadn't been caught staring. That made Alicia curtsey before looking away too.
She wondered why the princess who had never cared to speak to her before was now staring at her so intently. Did the princess want to say something to her? But the princess just looked away. This confused her.
Just then Beatrix and Serina arrived at the corner of the banquet hall their group was standing in.
"Tia," Serina called out and everyone turned around to see the princesses.
"Princesses." They bowed in unison.
