As time flew past Alton was already getting into the carriage to take him to the Palace. Nyoria and Clayton was sat in there with him as they both looked out the windows watching the scene going by. Alton smiled at their excitement. "You two seem so happy." Alton spoke up.

They both turned their attention to him and then sat tidy on the seat in the carriage. Which the outer was black and gold, and the inside seating was red while the walls was black.

They looked at him and gave a small awkward smile to him. "Well you see none of us have actually ever been near the palace. . I know it's the same with you but I just feel so excited young lord!" Clayton spoke up with a huge smile on his face.

"Same with me Alton. I've always wanted to go to the palace. . . But the count wouldn't let me out of his sight most of the time. ." Nyoria explained herself.

He looked at them both and had a small smile on his face as they both expressed and explained why they were so excited. When they finally arrived at the gate they had to get out of the carriage to show their invitation by the gate, since the only time your allowed into the palace is if they are expecting you.

There is a protective magical spell around the palace which prevents anyone other then the royal family from going in without a invitation. When they left the carriage Nyoria and Alton didn't know this, Clayton noticed that they was going to go into the premises without being checked first, however before he could say anything they both walked in without any problems.

Clayton stood there shocked as he noticed this, he gave their invitation to the guards who also witnessed this as they are shocked too. Nyoria was smiling at her son while he was looking around. Clayton started to carry the bags and ran after them.

When he cought up with them he walked to the rooms with them both and walked into the room Alton will have for this event. He closed the door and rushed over to them holding Alton and Nyoia by a shoulder of each of them. "I knew it! You two are going to be in danger!" He said trying to keep it down not to cause any unwanted attention to them.

Nyoria and Alton stood there confused as Clayton was looking around. Before Clayton could even say anything else there was a knock on the door they looked over then looked back at Alton. "Ah. . . . Come on in. ." Alton said outloud.

The guards opened the door and bowed to Alton. "We've been told to come and tell the heir to the Von-Lowther family that the celebration will begin at noon please come to the main hall before then." They spoke.

Alton looked at them and then nodded his head as he looked around the room sighing to himself once they left Clayton and Nyoria got to work by putting things away for Alton and then running the bath.

His mind going back to what Clayton had said and the look he had on his face as he was talking to them. While Alton was in the bath Nyoria looked at Clayton and then looked at the door to the bathroom. "Clayton. . . What was you on about?" Nyoria asked him, folding and putting the clothes away.

Clayton looked at her aome and then went back to making the bed. "Did you know only people with the royal blood can enter the palace without showing the invitation first?" Clayton asked her. She looked at her him confused as she let him continue to speak first. "You and Alton walked in the palace grounds without any resistance at all. Nyoria the 'noble' that forced themselves on your mother. . . I think that was actually a royal. ." Clayton said not looking at her.

Nyoria looked at Clayton shocked and and frozen in place.

"A royal. . . So that means. . ."
