Chapter 13
Keira’s Pov
Princess Lyna stands beside her king–size bed with her hands folded in front of her chest. She wants the plan, one that is supposed that help her pass the test of wisdom without Eguring out the right answers to the questions herself.
Helen and Lisa are seated on the floor once again, skillfully cutting pieces of soft white fabrics and lace to make a stunning wedding gown for the princess.
She is already preparing for her wedding with the angel kings, like she is so sure that I can make her pass her final test.
“I am assuming that you have come up with a good plan. She says in a frigid tone. “Tell me everything” She orders.
“I have thought of a plan, but I will need your help” I say.
“I already told you that I cannot answer the questions.” She insists.
“Yes, I will answer them for you.” I reply. “But for that to happen I will need you to lie to Lady Doria and the council.
“Le about what?” She questions.
“Having a sore throat” I answer.
Her face wrinkles with confusion…
“The council will not allow you to answer the questions just because her highness has a sore throat.” Helen points, standing up from the from the floor to confront me.
“They will allow it if she asks to be allowed to write down the answers instead of saying them. She will ask that I, her servant, read the answers to the council, I will create make my own answers while pretending to be reading hers.” I explain further and they finally nod in understanding-
“All I have to do is pretend I have a sore throat. That’s a perfect plan Lyna approves with a thrilled sanile. Just don’t fall a single question. I have endured enough humiliation” She warns.
I refrain from agreeing as I cannot ascertain that I will get all questions right. Not even a genius knows everything. Wish I could find an
easier way,

They spend the next half an hour styling and braiding the princess’s beautiful hair with bins and ribbons of gold. Helen uses some white powder to make the princess’s skin look a linde more paler while Lisa lines her eyes with dark and golden kohl.
A knock comes just before Lyna turns to stare at her reflection in the mirror.
“Remember not to speak well, your highness. I remind before going to get the door.
Lady Doria walks in alone, a little box in her hand. Not bothering to acknowledge my presence.
“Good morning, priness of Silverthorn” She greets with a gentle smile. Lyna awkwardly tries to explain that she has a sore throat with dramatic hand gestures before Lisa intervenes.
“Her highness had a piece of apple stuck to her throat last night. She managed to get it out, but her throat is very sore and awfully painful.” Lisa informs.

Were they not supposed to only meet their selected bride after she has been chosen by the council? It’s against the rules of the contest for them to be present during the test. But I guess that them being the makers of the rules they can alter them whenever they feel like.
Princess Lyna hands Luthe necklace so she can help her put it on. She then runs to stand in front of the long mirror. “It’s perfect for your neck Lady Doria compliments.
Princess Lyna spns on her heels, taking quick glances at the reflection of her back. The necklace sparkles as she spins. “Do you think my arms would look better without the sleeves? The sleeves make me l
