Cielo remained in the garden until his sister came to fetch him. She wasn't in a dress today, instead, she wore comfortable riding pants and a loose dress shirt, with a corset over it.
The carriage was already waiting by the gates, so he didn't need to return to the castle, walking beside her over the marble pathways as they departed from the gardens.
Dressed so similarly, they looked strikingly alike, and at first glance, it was almost impossible to tell them apart.
Two grand carriages were waiting at the entrance, Prince Elio standing tall in front of them.
Cielo was reclusive and introverted around most people, but Prince Elio had become almost as familiar as his sister to him, so sharing a carriage with them didn't bother him.
Not to mention, the carriages had different compartments, so if he wanted some privacy, he could easily get it.
Just as they arrived, Queen Nadia was coming down the grand stairs, her dark red dress billowing in the wind.
