A quarter before lunch, as usual, the grand steward came to the study to greet her lady. Didn't bother to look away from her paperwork, Lady Dimitrescu let her servant leave with a simple nod. 

Taking off her gold-trim glasses from the bridge of her nose, and raising her tall figure up, the lady's long arms reached out wildly to loosen the tension stored in her muscles. walking to the vanity, she glanced at the reflection in the mirror to ensure the makeup and the hair were perfect before entering the attached bedroom.

With elegant movement, the countess ducked down beside the bad, her hand gently ran across the cheek of the one laying on bad, moving a lock of hair away from her forehead, then she called,

"Darling, time to wake up."

Getting no response but a turning back from the sleeping woman, patiently and with a little more volume, the lady called again

"Nell, it's time to wake up for lunch."

Yet the blonde only made a low groaning with her eyes shut tightly, burying her head into the blanket in her arms, just like those sleepy heads of her daughters. The countess cocked the brow and stood straight up, grabbing the blanket and yanking it up, away from Nell's hold. 

The rough gesture woke up the witch slightly, struggling to sit up and with half-opened eyes. Under the gloomy light in the room, the lady's powerful figure with a graceful smile was like a sweet imagination created by Morpheus,

"Am I still dreaming? How come Alcina be in my room?" muttering to herself and falling down by her side, Nell buried into the pillow once again.

Sitting down on the bed with chuckling, Lady Dimitrescu pulled the hex onto her lap, gently stroking the platinum golden hair, cooing,

"Darling, it's me, time to wake up. You don't want to miss the feast, do you? "

With a gently rubbed feeling on her shoulder, the witch's tired eyes blinked several times, and the soft smile of the lady showed to her.

"Oh, prettiest, good morning." Nell put her arms around the lady's waist, cuddling herself into the soft abdomen, the azure eyes were closed again, obviously, someone was not in a sober state. The warm breaths from Nell ran through the silky fabric and caressed her skin, itched her from inside, and made the countess blush with surprise.

After carefully positioning the woman's head with both of her palms, the lady raised her voice and called,

"Wake up, Nell!"

The blonde hex was finally awake, as soon as realizing she was in the arms of the elegancy, letting out a yelp, her eyes were widely opened. Lady Dimitrescu helped her to sit up on the bed, the rose tone on Nell's cheeks was deep and expanded, she quietly mumbled,

"Sorry, Alcina. I didn't mean to sleep like a log." sitting on her heels with hands on her knees, 'Hope I didn't say anything stupid.' she thought to herself uncomfortably.

The countess looked at her, chuckled amusingly with a hand covering her mouth,

"You are like the sleeping beauty, really need to put some effort to wake up."

If there's a color brighter than the apple, that would be Nell's cheeks, quibblingly, she said,

"That means you are the prince then? Thought you are the one rousing me."

A little flushing was too, being brought to the countess's face, she pouted and fought back,

"A kiss would be the prince's right to have. I shall take it, no?"

The lady leaned in, with golden eyes staring deeply into Nell's, it was just too hard to resist. Heart beating like thunders, loud and quick, Nell gave up and slid down from the other side of the bed, rushing into the bathroom with her bare feet, while the angelic chuckling of the lady was the background music of the room and a delightful call from the gorgeous one, 

"There's no way you can get out of my hand, princess, running will get you nowhere." made her face completely reddish.

Closing the door and leaning against the marble counter in front of the mirror, Nell took a deep breath to collect her ruined mind. When looking up and watching herself through the reflection in the mirror, she noticed a light red mark on her forehead, leaning forward close to the mirror, that was a lipstick print from you know who.

"Oh my lord." She murmured softly, covering her face with trembling hands, her heartbeats were unable to slow down.

Looking into the mirror, Nell carefully wiped away the crimson mark before exiting the bathroom. Lady Dimitrescu already pulled the curtains open, leaned beside the window, and looked out, hearing the sound of the opening door, she turned to face the sheepy witch, gently smiling,

"Here you are, my princess." she winked the eyes of melting gold.

Blushingly, Nell rolled her eyes, "Stop sending butterflies into my stomach. It's not good for health."

In the teasing glare of the countess, the hex went to the bed and put on her shoes, looking up at Alcina, "Let's go, I'm hungry."

Ducking down slightly, Alcina took her hand and grinned at her, "As you wish, my pretty witch."

Holding her hand tightly, Nell stepped out first, groaning quietly, "Please stop, or I would have a heart attack."
