The feeling of us landing reaches through me and I grin as I stand, getting ready to rush through the door to see my new home. One I should have been raised in.
"Wait my Lady." I groan as I turn to watch Harvin enter.
"There will be cameras here to watch you step onto the Dukedom. You need to be photo ready." He adds. He was right. From the moment I step out of this shuttle I'll be in the public eye as the next Dutches. I would be paraded around, holding court with leaders of nations.
"Okay, dress me up. As well as Elliot."
"Wait what?" Elliot asks as he stands and backs away fearful and I couldn't help but grin mischievously.
"If I have to be dressed like a doll then so do you. As my-" I paused. Not knowing what Elliot was to me. Yes he was my step brother but I had no clue what he would be here.
"As Sir Elliot has known you for most of your life he will be one of your guards. He'll start training and will attend the same academy as you." Creighton says, entering the main room of the shuttle with two young girls around the age of 20 maybe. One walked towards Elliot and when he refused whatever she said she grabbed his ear and I couldn't help but laugh as he was pulled towards a door in the back that I hadn't noticed.
"Hello M'Lady." I turned my attention to the other girl who spoke with a heavy british acent and smiled at her as she held her hand out for me to take.
"Come with me and I'll dress you in appropriate clothes fit for a Dutches." I take her hand and she leads me in the same direction Elliot had been pulled to but through a different door.
Inside I marvel at the sight of a shower, a vanity holding makeup and hair styling supplies as well as a rack full of clothes. It was amazing.
"Shower quickly so I can get you ready to be presented to the people." The girl states and I nodd, waiting for her to leave. But she just stands there by the door, her eyes looking at me expectantly.
"Um...can I get some privacy?" I ask and she jumps a blush spreading on her cheeks.
"Oh of course I'll be outside. Shower and dress into one of those outfits then let me know when I can come and do your hair. Towels are beside the shower." She says in a rush, her blush darkening as she exits the room in a hurry and I sigh a little relieved. I don't want to be naked infront of other people, especially those who are stronger then me and could harm me.
The first thing I do is turn the water on, letting it get to a comfortable temperature and walking over to the vanity to brush my hair out. Once my hair was combed properly I make my way back to the shower and undress, stepping under the cascading water and sighing as my body relaxes further. I had to remind myself I was safe here far away from my so called mother and her husband. I would be starting a new life soon.
With that thought in mind I rush through the shower, cleaning every inch of myself before stepping out and grabbing the towels that were waiting for me. One I wrapped around my hair to help dry it the other I used to dry my body before I go to the wrack of clothes and look through it. Everything was already made into outfits and I couldn't help be enjoy the feel of the soft materials.
I decided on a simple plain high-low sundress with a gold sash around the waist and white wedges that shined in the light. It came with a set of gold undergarments and I was glad the bra was strapless as I quickly dress, going to the door as I ruffle the towel around my hair.
"I'm ready." I call out, the door opening and the girl from before rushes in with her friend that took Elliot.
"Good. We have a lot to do." She says and I was ushered into the vanity chair.
