Petra too was trying to find time to meet Eltanin on a personal basis, but Eltanin just wasn't available. For the whole day their parents remained busy with something or the other. Petra went to Tarazed's room where she was with her betrothed, the General of the Aquila Army.
Tarazed and her man were lying in an embrace when Petra barged in. The General got up with a start as Tarazed rolled her eyes. Her sister's tantrums were becoming unbearable these days. There was not a single king or prince in the world of Araniea who wanted to marry her and she knew why. It was because she had eyes for Eltanin and at the same time had tasted several princes and kings on her infamous tours.
The General got up. He grabbed his tunic. Putting it on, he bowed to the princess and then walked out of the room after giving a glance to his betrothed.
"What is it?" Tarazed asked, propping her elbow up and resting her head on her palm.
