After that four of us went towards the balcony far from the crowd of people, "Now you can breathe." Crown prince said as he looked at my face. "Yes." I said as I took a deep breath.

"I really don't understand why do you always get involved between them." Ash said irritatingly.

"Let me know the answer myself first then I will tell you." I said as I looked at him.

"Woah! Now please don't start fighting, both of you!" Second prince said as he tried to calm us down.

"But wasn't that Lady carot?" Crown prince said as he looked towards the crowd, violet must have started crying again, I looked for Rose but she wasn't in the hall. Where did she disappear to?

"Right she is!" Ash said angrily.

"Isn't she the one lady winter got into a fight the other day?" Second prince asked.

"First it wasn't a fight but just a misunderstanding~~" I said.

"Yeah whatever but what happened today?" Ash asked.

"Just another misunderstanding~" I said as I smiled awkwardly. And the three of them looked at me with a *Are you serious?* Look on their faces.

"Lady Winter how can you have a misunderstanding with the same person two times??" Crown prince asked.

"I wonder about that too." I said as I smiled slyly.

"Don't you think that Lady Carot might me doing this intentionally." Second prince said.

"That What I am saying too!" Ash said.

"Intentionally...." I murmured as I looked at the crowd of people worrying about Violet, No violet just tried to help me out....She won't play any tricks with me.

Why am I even thinking about this! She is the female lead Violet!! The kind hearted female lead who would stand up even for her enemies. She is such an Angel, she won't ever hurt me.

"No Lady Carot can't be like that.." I said as I smiled towards them.

"...She is just a bit innocent so she says whatever comes in her mind and furthermore she was just trying to help me out. I bet she didn't knew that things would turn out to be like that." I said as I looked at Violet who had that pure and innocent look on her face with guilt in her eyes. She must be feeling bad since things turned out like this.

"If lady winter says so then I guess you are right." Second prince said as he looked at Violet but his eyes still showed suspiciousness towards her.

"Hah you trust her too much." Ash said as he sighed.

"Yes I trust her and I trust the three of you too, I believe no matter what happens you guys will never hurt me!" I said as I smiled brightly towards them. Even thou it may feel like a bluff thing to say.....but with the amount of time we spent together I have this much faith in them that I can blindly trust them now.

The three of them stayed silent as they looked at me. "We trust you too, and we promise that we will never hurt you." Crown Prince said as he came towards me and patted my head.

"And we won't ever let anyone hurt you too, right brother!" Second prince said as he brushed his shoulder with the crown prince. "Yes." Crown Prince said as he looked at me.

"And if the princes fail to do that....I won't hesitate to take the matters on my hand." Ash said as he looked at both the princes with his *You better do what you say* look. Why does it feel as if my brother is getting scarier with the passing days.

"Yo Ashton don't be such an angry man!" Second prince said as he ruffled Ash hair.

"Well I am serious!" Ash said as he glared at the second prince, who just laughed at the little kid.

"This feels so good..." I said as I looked at them bickering around.

"Does it?" Crown prince asked.

"Yes it does, I really wish we could be like this forever." I said as I smiled towards him.

"Hmm, I hope that too!" The crown prince said as he tucked a strand of my hair behind my ears.

A smile appeared on his lips as his eyes twinkled because of the moonlight that falled on us.

And at that moment I really felt that, I am truly inside a novel.

"Sister??" Ash said as he waved his hands infront of me. "Yes!" I said as I looked at him, and I realized that the princes have already left."Where is your mind? It's time to present our gifts to the empress." Ash said as he pointed to the box in Mill's hand.

"OH right the present I almost forgot about it!" I said as I took the present from Mill's hand.

"Thank you." I said as I smiled towards out butler.

"Its fine My lady." Butler Mill said as he existed the hall.

"Then Ash shall we go now." I said. "Yes." He said and we went towards the pedestal. Where the emperor and empress sat on their respected seats.

"We greet the sun of the empire his majesty and the saintness of the empire her majesty." Ash and I said as we bowed towards them.

"HoHo the winter siblings are here too!" Emperor said with a friendly smile.

"Yes we are your majesty." I said.

"It has been a long time since we last meet isn't it lady winter." The empress said as she smiled towards me her eyes showed warmth.

"Yes it is your majesty." I said as I smiled towards her.

"Dear empress you might not know but the idea for a winter theme banquet was given by Lady Winter." The emperor said.The empress looked shocked by but it didn't look she didn't except it.

"I knew that Lady winter was a beauty with brain but I didn't really expected that you would do something this grand for me." The empress said as she smiled gently towards me. Her eyes showed genuine thankfulness towards me.

"You flatten me your majesty." I said as I bowed towards her.

"Her majesty please accept this present from the winter family." Ash said as he presented the present to her. The empress opened the box and her eyes widened and a smile appeared on her face, "This..." She said as she took the music box out of the box.

"This is the present our mother sent for her majesty from her hometown." I said as I looked at her.

"Its really pretty with the snowfall in it and this music." She said as she played the music, that tune surprised me because it was the same tune which the empress and the princes played but this tune was giving out a different vibe. The tune unlike other tune I listened, this one felt more pure and warm.

"This tune isn't it the one you always play." The emperor said.

"Yes it is the Amour Hymn." The empress said.

Amour Hymn it must be the name of the tune.

Amour it's Mother's hometown name and now I remembered where I heard that name before,

"Empress Amour isn't that..." The emperor said as he looked at the empress,

"Yes your majesty it was what you are thinking....Amour my Hometown. And this tune is our hometowns most famous folk song." Empress said with a smile in her face.

"Lady Winter and Young Master Winter please thank your mother for this precious gift. I will treasure it forever." The empress said as she smiled.

"Yes we will do Your Majesty." Both of us said as we went down the pedestal.

"Sis did you know our mother and the empress where from the same hometown?" Ash asked.

"Nope I just heard about it today." I said.

"Hmm, Now it all makes sense the empress love for winter and snowfall and that tune too." Ash said as we both went towards the food section.

"Yes it does but Ash do you think mother and the empress knew each other even before her majesty came to the capital." I said as I took a piece of cake on my plate.

"Umm, I can't really say it but I did heard that Amour is a small place so maybe they knew each other or maybe not." Ash said as he drank a glass of apple juice and his eyes started twinkling, he must have liked it a lot.

"You must really like the food." I said as I gave him a piece of cake.

"Yes I really love it!" Ash said as he ate the cake happily.

We were just laughing and joking around when suddenly we heard a scream from the pedestal.

"The empress has collapsed.." was the last word we heard as the room temperature decreased and people started murmuring.
