Chapter 56 Royalty In A Flying Machine

• There was no time to sit at the eating place and chat like all the people did because the sun had gone down for some time. Dinner would be served and we were late.
• There was no choice than let Stern turn to his wolf and ride on him because time was not our side. And besides that, my feet were black with the skin having torn at some point. I had been standing all day long with everything hurting. The ride took a couple of minutes and there would be no time for us to go change before dinner. I was so over the dress and especially the shoes. I had to finger comb my hair to get it presentable after the air blowing through it and sending it all crazy. I slipped off Stern, him tracking away to the other side of the castle to change as I waited for him. He came back wearing a black shirt and shorts, his hair all messy. In my hands were a couple paper bags that mostly carried samples I would use when doing some more decorating and add to my color chart.
• Nothing was said, both rushing up the steps and through the door. The lights were on, no one in sight with the sounds heard from the dining room where cutlery cluttered with chatter coming from there. I needed to wash my hands, them a bit salty.
