Chapter 200: But Will She Agree?
Prince Alex shrugged, unconcerned. "I think that she will take it better than you’re expecting. Just the fact that it will be over and done with, and she will get her first choice without any Royal Arguments should be enough."
That was a solid argument.
Princess Alexis hadn’t been in any hurry to get married in the first place, but Dominic was more concerned that she might start a rebellion if her sister was forced into a political marriage in her place.
Or worse, that she really did have the vision of a perfect wedding in her mind, and had simply refused to tell anyone about it so they could prepare.
The maid brought out a bottle of fine Cognac, and popped the cap to let it breathe for a moment before pouring.
"Oh, that is good. I don’t know that I’ll be able to go back to soldier Rum after that." Dominic sighed as he sipped the strong liquor.
"I don’t know how you drink that stuff in the first place. The only thing worse is the gin that they make. That stuff is just vile." Prince Alex replied, disgusted by the thought.
"Nearly as vile as Pineapple." Alexis agreed as she walked out of her room with her hair down and wearing a dressing robe over her nightgown.
She walked over to the table, and Dominic poured her a shot.
The maid looked scandalized at the thought of a Princess drinking hard liquor like a Soldier. Even the maids didn’t touch such things, much preferring wine.
"Have you two finished discussing my future without me?" She asked, then sighed as she sipped the Cognac.
"Almost. We would have gone into more details, but he is to be my brother-in-law, and some things wouldn’t be appropriate." Dominic agreed.
