Pound.... Pound... His heart beat started accelerating.

" Evan", Aeins.h.i.+a called out when she felt he went into a daze.It made him look cuter than usual.

Small and beautiful flowers with silver thread having pearls in middle were embroidered on the chest area. The long gown has two layers.

The first layer reached a little above her feet unlike the second layer. The second layer came in an umbrella cut which started at her side waistline and spreaded around her like waves with a step of little by little increase of length till it reached 180 degrees and then the process continued till it came back to it's starting point with a step of little by little decrease in its length.

A strap of gemstones were embedded on the waist part which gave a more slimmer look to her waist and small designs flowed with small silver gemstones on the second layer while the hem of first layer got a lining of diamonds.

The ocean blue halter straps were too thin and revealed some parts of both hands. The lacy blue gloves she wore had a rose design which got small pearls in middle of the flowers and reached above her elbow.

The long gown accentuated her thin waist, hugged her hips and wrapped around her body in perfect places which enhanced her beauty despite her less curves. All in all she looked mesmerizing in this ocean blue dress.

The dress was breathtakingly beautiful and was perfect for his little princess, but something about it felt off. His scrutinizing gaze travelled all over her body and finally took a halt near her chest. Her chest didn't justify the dress hoped it would be.

'Of course, she is still a young girl who just hit her p.u.b.erty. There's much time for her to grow into a fine lady', he muttered in his heart.

Discarding that one point, she was like a celestial beauty in this dress. Once again he startled to the point that his mind seemed to have messed up with the pa.s.sing cool breeze.

It was her first time wearing such clothes which exposed her shoulder. She was already feeling uncomfortable and his dumbfounded state didn't make anything better.

He was standing like a statue and gave a whole body scan with his eyes and yet, didn't tell anything. After what felt like five minutes,she finally mustered up the courage and called his name telling him to snap back to reality.

Her soothing voice rang in his ears, it was so sweet to hear.

"Shall we get going", he stretched his hand indicating her to hold his. And again they walked hand in hand together to the garden.

Through the entire journey no one uttered a word. Noticing the eerily silence enveloping them she racked her brain to find some topic.

" Does your back hurts from the fall", she asked remembering her fall on him. The floor was strange and hard , not only did he just hit the floor, but also had her on top which might have created a great impact for the fall and getting him injured.

Of course it hurts, but he never gonna say that loud nor admit it.

"What am I? A weakling to get injured just from a small fall like that", he sounded arrogant and cool at the same time.

Aeins.h.i.+a felt like a lightening stuck her head for asking him such question. She just wanted to ask him out of concern. She even felt guilty because she was the reason for that incident and now, here he goes, bragging about himself and his strength.

"So hateful", she cursed him under her breath , continued their walk as she decided to not to talk to him till he spoke.

Both them are immersed in their own thoughts and didn't mind the stares of the servants and the officials.

They reached the entrance of the garden and soon the rays of sun hit her. Every single one of the workers stopped their work and stared in 'aww' at her.

As soon as the sunlight shone on the gemstones, they turned into a purple colour and all the diamonds s.h.i.+mmered with silvery rays as a stream of golden light fell on them, making her a twinkling star under the blue sky.

Everyone couldn't help but look at her unbelievably. She was like a G.o.ddess that descended from the sky and the only thing that felt lacking was, she didn't hold any magical wand in her hands and instead held their prince's hand. If not for the prince standing beside her, they would have really mistook her as an angel.

"How beautiful!!! ".

" She is stunning ".

" She is already gorgeous and that dress made her look even more beautiful ", a servent boy commented.

" That dress must have cost a fortune. Probably I have to work for three whole lives to be able to get my hands on it ", a maid commented.

" Hey... Can't you see the quality of gemstones and the diamonds embedded on it. You can't even lay a hand even after three whole lives", another one mocked her maid friend.

. ....

The praising went on and on.

Aeins.h.i.+a noticed the uproar and drooped her head to look at her dress hearing their murmurs. It was magnificent, spectacular. She was at a loss words.

She was like a self-luminous being standing under the bright yellow sun.Soon people started gathering one after other slowly. She really felt like digging a hole and hide her end our of sheer embarra.s.sment being the topic of all the audience.

Evan too felt at loss of words.

Aeins.h.i.+a turned around and asked him,"Do you already know about the amazing work of the gown? ", she asked with a deadpan voice.

"I don't know", he replied curtly.

Of course, he didn't know. He saw it while his return to his dorm at night and this was the first time he got to know the s.h.i.+mmering of the dress by chance. He thought the designs were simple except for the extravagant work on it.

Now he understood when the designer told him, 'he will sure visit the store again and this dress worths the money'. The designer was so sure of his works and didn't leave his dream of becoming a top designer and his love of art instead of taking care of his fathers business, who owned a crystal mine.

"This dress was so pretty", she said with smiles blooming all over her face. The large sum he spent was not wasted. It was all worth for this one smile of her.

The young man work had a great quality and unique style in his designs yet many people didn't visit his place because of the high price he sold his works.

Evan thought he would sure bring that man to the palace and make him the Royal dressmaker.

"You are looking beautiful", finally he said what he wanted tk confess from the day he came back to his kingdom.

This time Aeins.h.i.+a didn't blush as those four words kept repeating on and on in her head and her smile even more brightened.

Seeing her smile even more, Evan hooked his hand in hers and took her away from all those people.

Aeins.h.i.+a didn't know what's wrong with him. From morning he was trying to get more and more intimate with her not leaving a chance.

' Did he take the wrong medicine today? ', her voice came out mentally.

'Or could it be that his solw got switched with other? ', her eyes widened when she thought of this chance. Only this could justify his abnormal actions.
