Princess Kelly Hu's new handmaiden, the Lady Lyndsy Fonseca, enters the chamber and curtsies. Lyndsy's dress is finely tailored but modest, with a high collar instead of the decollatage in fashion nowadays. Still, the dress clings to her slim, athletic frame and pert breasts.
Princess Kelly herself is dressed in a tight red dress with a plunging neck line and a high slit along one leg. She crosses a smooth bare leg over her covered one, her jeweled anklets tinkling. "You come highly recommended," she finally says, rubbing her dangling gold earrings. "I assume you know what's expected of you?"
"Yes, your Highness," Lyndsy says, looking up at the Princess who she thinks really is so beautiful.
The Princess' exotic good looks are from her mother, a foreign aristocrat that the old King "met" on one of his invasions. When he welcomed his daughter to his court, duels were immediately fought for her favor, but she's not just some pretty flower. She's a sharp political operator, so sharp that everyone expects her to take the throne for herself.
Little does Lyndsy (or the King's Maidens) know, but the Princess actually supports the new King... |
