How to Make the Grand Duke Fall In Love With Me
chapter 3
Sunlight streams through the grand windows ...casting a soft glow over The lavish room... Evelyn wakes up.. still getting used to surrounding.. she stretches and let's out a satisfied sigh
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
ok... so day two of " I woke up in a novel and didn't die "... Not bad
The door creaks open, and Clara peeks in...
Maid Clara
My Lady, good morning ! Your condition seems to have improved greatly..
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
yeah because I am not the real Evelyn.. *mumbles*
Maid Clara
young miss.. The Crown princess and your Elder Brother are on their way. They were informed of your recovery last night...
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*freezes*
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*in mind* The protagonist is coming... My big sister... And my big brother.. who--- if I remember correctly adorned Evelyn more than amelia...
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*in mind* Oh, great .... time to meet my new Sister. The heroine of this world and my overprotective brother .... no pressure...
A pair of elegant footsteps echoed down the corridor ... followed by a heavy or more urgent steps of someone less patient
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
Amelia... Can't you walk any faster? We need to see evelyn...
Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
Damien ... She has been bed ridden for months... Do you think storming in like a wild boar is the best idea??
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)

The door fly open.. Damien All but barrels into the room.. eyes scanning for his little sister
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)

Evelyn Delacroix (fl)

Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
*rushes to her and hugs her*
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)

Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
You're awake ... you're breathing... you are ALIVE!!!
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
I won't be for long if you keep this up-- *struggling to catch her breath in his embrace*
Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
Damien... Release her before you actually break her....
Damien reluctantly let's go.. holding Evelyn's face in his hand ... inspecting her like a lost gem...
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
Are You in pain??? do you need a healer?? What do you need?!
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
air... Mostly air...
Damien finally let's her breathe.. but his intense gaze remains
Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
*reaches out to them*
Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
*tucks a stray strad of Evelyn's hair behind her ear*
Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
You had us all worried... Evelyn
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*blinks*
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*in mind* there's concern in her voice ... but its wrapped in formal .. distant tone
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*in mind* huh... So she does care ... but not as much as Damien does.. clearly...
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
uh .. Yeah, sorry about that.... Not dying was harder than it looked...
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
*laughs*
Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
*narrows her eyes Slightly*
Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
You sound different
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*stiffens*
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*in mind* Crap ... did I mess up already????
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
*takes Evelyn's hand in his*
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
who cares!! she's alive.. that's all that matters...
Amelia looks at her little sister for a long moment and then sighs
Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
I suppose you should be resting... We will not stay long....
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
*frowns*
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)

Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)

Amelia Delacroix (fl's sister)
If you keep troubling her... She might actually get sick again
Damien Delacroix (fl's brother)
hmp... Fine.. But I'll be back
Evelyn watches as they leave.. her mind still whirling..
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
Well, that wasn't a total disaster... but I need to be careful... Amelia is already suspicious
she flops back onto her pillow .. staring at the ceiling...
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
Okay, New mission: Survive my new family .... and then find grand duke Lucian and save him
Evelyn Delacroix (fl)
*eyes glem with determination*
