"My princess.... I am by all means at your service"

Cordelia Laurent, your new and only lady in waiting, stood in front of you as she bowed slightly. You were both in your chambers after your parents, the king and queen of your kingdom, introduced you to her. It was a tad strange, Cordelia was not your age. She was 40 years old with ash blonde hair and white strands. But that made her look more attractive in your eyes as the strands kept on falling on her face and she pushed them away.

Cordelia was from the aristocratic family of the house of Laurent. Now she was your lady in waiting unexpectedly. She smiled slyly at you, amused by the blush on your face but said nothing otherwise.

She was charming and you were smitten by her. Or maybe you'd developed love at first sight.
