Tsuzuki looked at Jerome oddly after his strange response and attitude he had taken on all of a sudden. "You seem to be a little happier than usual sir. Something cross your mind? Brighten your day or something?" Tsuzuki asked the Prince as Lilith left them together. He was so concerned about him that he forgot to not call him sir. It wasn't that he didn't like to see Jerome happy like this, it was just so random and sudden. He usually didn't act so bright all of a sudden unless something rather good happened, but as far as Tsuzuki had noticed, nothing so substantially grand had happened to cause this response in the Prince. Nothing he had noticed anyways.
(( Glad to have you with us again. 3nodding ))

 Jerome looked at Tsuzki, slightly startled by his voice. Seeing as he had decided to stay out of the whole subject. He cleared his throat quickly, and continued to look at Tsuzuki. "Oh, well actually.. I guess it's just because I might not have to see or interact with Kara for quite some time. Though I am kind of interested to see how she looks and acts."
Jerome replied. He rested his slim figure against the wood work of the kitchen walkway.
//Sorry it's sooo short, mom and I are butting heads and I don't have a lot of time to do stuff..

 It didn't take Lilith long to talk to the chefs; organising the correct amounts of blood in the vampire meals so the taste of the food was at it's peak, how the werewolf guards meals should be cooked and what they were serving the human and her guards. She didn't like talking about Kara, she just didn't like her. 'Why?' A voice in the back of her head asked her. 'Is it because she'll be spending alot of time with the Prince while you run errands for his mother? You're just the Royal Advisor.' Lilith was thankfully in the belly of the kitchen, where the most prestigious wines and liquor were kept, so she was alone and could talk to herself. "That.. Doesn't bother me. Does it? Why did i really want to stop this wedding?" She asked herself, standing still. The voice didn't answer, so she left herself confused, and instead looked at her reflection in the ornate mirror covering the back wall. Her hair had grown when she played with it, making her ice blue eyes stand out. Quite happy with her shoulder length hair, she left the kitchens, still confused. Walking back out to the Prince and Tsuzuki, she pushed her hair off her face and closed the door as tantalising smells followed her long after she closed the door. Smiling, she walked over to where the two were standing, the Prince just resting against the doorway. "Well, i'm done! Weren't we going to find some suitable attire for tonight now?" And with a small bow at the Prince, she indicated she'd follow him to wherever they went; be it his room to find his outfit, or to where he knew of some gowns for her. Her Romanian accent was musical and light, quite pleasing to the ears. She smiled at Tsuzuki, showing she hadn't forgotten him.

Jerome pushed off the woodwork. He nodded once. "First we will find you a pretty gown, and then if Tsuzuki wants something as well, we'll find him something to. Then me."
That was a rather usual move for him, he was usually the first. 'It's just her accent. Exoctic and pretty.' Jerome thought casually, before making his way to one of the storage rooms.
They reached their destination soon, and Jerome was rather surprised to find it unlocked. 'Mother..' Popped in his head, as he held his arm outstreached for the two. It was getting closer and closer to the arrival of the human princess. Try as he might, Jerome forgot when she would be arriving. "Lilith, when was Kara to arrive. I seem to have forgotten."
Jerome asked, looking into her icy eyes. They were mysterious but yet somewhat heart warming to him.

Lilith curtsied and walked on the other side of Jerome down the halls, Tsuzuki on his other side. It was a quick walk, which surprised her. "s**t, that was quick." She blurted out, looking at the Prince. "Um, sorry." She laughed. Walking into the room, she was surprised she'd never been in here before. It was an old room, quite dark, but she could make out quite a few closets, some floor length mirrors and alot of those changing partitions. Waving her hand above her, the candles flickered and lit. If there was any warmth in the room, she could do it, but if it was cold; forget it. Thankfully the castle was warm today as she had been told to light the furnace to make the castle more welcoming for Kara. Turning around in the now lit room, she saw Prince Jerome looking at her, his eyes meeting hers. "Oh, umm... The grandfather clock in the kitchens said it was just about 1 so... Dusk should be about 5. There's time." His gaze had caught her off guard, and her accent seemed to be a bit jumpy. A smile had lit up her face since she saw his gaze. Lilith hadn't found him cold in any way today. In fact, his chocolate brown eyes were warm and friendly to her, her cool skin seemed to warm when she saw them

He grinned as she entered the room. It was dark, and Jerome was close to calling some servant, seeing as he had forgotten her candle lightling power. But he was pleased that he wouldn't have to yell or send Tsuzuki away. He felt so much better with him around. Jeromae waved her apology away. "It's fine. Don't be sorry for something minor, at least not to me."
He responed entering the room as well. "Thank you. I seem to be rather forgetful today.."
Jerome muttered, embaressment tinting his voice.
He frowned, looking at the numerous number of chests around them. Most of the clothes probably belonged to Margarette, and if so, Jerome would take the blame. After all, it was his idea. Jerome spotted a jeweled chest that seemed to sparkle in the candle light. He opened it, and found a collection of lush gowns. "If you can't find one that you like just let me know. I'm sure there are plenty more somewhere in here."
Jerome said, as he found a chair covered with a white sheet to keep the dust off. He removed it, and frooze. It was his fathers' favorite. He remembered it from long ago. To avoid suspision, he quickly seated himself, and watched Lilith.

Lilith smiled, watching the Prince. "You're lucky i'm around then hey?" She teased. Her smile faltered a little, realising what she had said. How much longer would Jerome want her around anyway? Walking over to the chest, she knelt down in front of it and pulled out an array of gowns. None seemed to have the Queen's scent on them, and that made her relieved; she'd surely be upset if the Royal Advisor was wearing her clothes, and more than likely would figure out it was Jerome's fault. Picking up an armful, she walked over to a large black changing partition close to the wall. Moving it so she was surrounded completely, she took off her day-cloak and hung it over the partition. Unzipping her dress, she poked her head around the side. "Don't get any ideas." She teased, winking at the Prince before picking up the first gown. Slipping it on, she looked at herself in the nearby mirror. The gown was a nice cut, hugging her in the right spots, but the colours made her pale skin stand out. Stepping out, she had a confused look on her face. "Somehow, i don't think the colours suit me." And she laughed, ducking back behind the partition. It was the same with the second gown; the white just made her dark hair overtake the rest of her. Doing the same thing, she stepped out, gave a spin and ducked behind. The last gown, on the other hand, made her blush when she saw herself. It was low cut and was made from a beautiful silky material. The lilac made her eyes stand out, and it didn't make her skin too pale. It hugged her waist and gently flared out from there. Sure the top half was a bit tight and hugged her curves too well, but she actually felt pretty. Wrapping the creamy coloured sash around her arms, she gave herself one last look. 'This needs longer hair.' And running her fingers through her ebony hair, it stretched out to her waist. Slowly, she stepped out from behind the partition, walking close to the middle of the room. A tiny brush of pink was on Liliths cheeks as she looked at the Prince and Tsuzuki. "What do you guys think?" She asked, giving a graceful turn. {[Long post, sorry! I know, i took forever and now you're gone T.T]}

As Lilith approached them, the two gentlemen...Well, at least the Prince and himself, Tsuzuki did blush a little, but quickly covered his face with a hand and looked away, to cover his smile, and red tinted cheeks. He couldn't say what he wanted which was "It's gorgeous! It's beautiful! You look extravagant!" That would be out of line, and much too bold for him to say. So as his blush lightened up a little, to a shade of pink, he looked back to her with a gentle smile, and commented, "I think you look very elegant, and fair." Though he wasn't sure if fair was too bold as well, but to him, 'fair' sounded a lot more refined and formal.
(( Sorry for my short posts. XD ))

{[Eh, it's fiiiine. I'm just a long poster at heart xD ]} Lilith couldn't help but blush at Tsuzuki's comment. She'd heard comments before in Romania such as "You're kind." Or, "That looks cute on you." But she'd never been called fair or elegant. Her eyes turned the same shade as her cheeks; dark pink, and the roots of her hair did the same. She looked much different from months ago; her skin wasn't as gaunt around her face any more, and her body had regained some of it's femininity after roaming lost for a long time. But it was her hair that made the most difference, it made her look younger, more welcoming. Her short hair was just because of convenience, she hadn't had it this long since she left Romania. "Tsuzuki, thank you..." She said quietly, her accent charmingly shy. Her eyes turned to Jerome, waiting to see what he said. Lilith had just caught Tsuzuki's face before he'd hidden it, and the smile she'd seen made her stomach do a happy backflip.

 Kara took a deep breath as she and her guards finally drew near the vampire's castle. The sun was sinking lower in the sky, and she knew that it wouldn't be long until dusk arrived. Kara was riding one of the horses the vampire had gained for her party.
The little mare was a small white one, with charming brown spots dusted across her dainty flanks. Baey rode along side her on a roan gelding, his long wings tucked up against his straight back.
Kara was honestly unafraid of what was to come. She trusted in her father's decisions, and if something else bad happened to her, Kara would leave her fate to the hands of others. Her opinion mattered little amongst her father's court, though she may have been the princess. Through all of her life she had been taught that she didn't matter. Only her father and mother mattered. Not a girl that didn't deserve to be a princess because of her scars. Her physical scars and her emotional ones as well.
No one but her father, mother, a few aunts, uncles, and guards knew about her secret, and she hoped that the vampires would not be as cruel about her past as her own family was. All she really wanted was to be loved and accepted for once in her lonely life, and yet, she doubted she was welcome in the vampire's castle at all.
Kara sighed heavily and frowned inwardly as the castle grew on the horizon.

 His choclate eyes studied Lilith. She looked marvelous, and seeing as Jerome wasn't his usual gloomy self, he said "You look rather magnificent."
Before casting a grin at her. Jerome took a look at Tsuzuki and chuckled quietly. He was blushing and it amused Jerome. Not in that mean way, but in that silly type of way. It made him even happier. "Well, I believe it's mine turn now."
Jerome took a look out into the hallway, before stepping into it. The sun was only a few moments from dusk. Jerome lost all the happy emotions, as they were replaced with his usual ones. "Just a matter of time now.."
Jerome got to thinking, and he usually did. He wondered how Margarette would react to Kara's arrival. Most likely well. But really all that Jerome hoped was that he wouldn't have to see her until dinner.
//I apologize for my coming and going.. also in the picture, just ignore the cigarette and brown his hair.

 Margarette had made her way out to the front of the castle, standing infront of the large, cherry wood doors that were wide open for the princess since she was arriving soon. Margarette smiled, and looked to the two guards that were holding the two dorrs open, then back towards the main gates, waiting for her to come through them. "All, is going as planned," She said to herself, assuming it was. Though she had no idea what Jerome was up to, hopefully getting ready for dinner after the princess's tour.Tsuzuki looked to the prince when he complimented Lilith as well. He seemed so happy, and that made Tsuzuki happy. If his master, the price was glad, then he was too. Tsuzuki wanted the best for the prince. As the prince stepped out into the hallway, Tsuzuki stepped out in the hallway as well. When the prince spoke to himself, his tone was...not as happy as it was, and Tsuzuki became less happy as well. His heart dropped, the prince was no longer especially happy. Though it wasn't like him being happy was usual anyways, but, it was nice while it lasted.((Sorry I was gone, I had relatives over, and didn't have time. ))

Lilith's eyes and cheeks turned an even darker pink when she heard Jerome's compliment. Quickly ducking behind the partition, she put her strapless black dress back on and wrapped her new dress carefully in her cloak. "Ok, lets find you something good." And following Jerome and Tsuzuki out, she saw the Prince's less-than-happy expression. Doing something bold, she walked up to the Prince and put her hand on his arm. "You'll get through. You've got Tsuzuki and me on your side." Her smile was as warm as her words, and her hand gave his arm a friendly squeeze. He needed people on his side, and Lilith would be there if he needed her. She was glad he had a guard like Tsuzuki as well. "Let's finish this off yeah? We've still got just under an hour." Lilith was standing close to Jerome, but not too close she hoped. It wouldn't take long to head back to Jerome's room.
