Asgardian Affairs
After what felt like hours of primping and prepping with her sister, Dagny, Eira was finally ready for tonight’s events. Of course, there was part of her that felt out of place in the golden gown she wore, but her sister swore it was perfect.
“Dagny, this dress is-”
Her sister glared at her, “It’s gorgeous, Eira. Stop sulking and get ready to have fun, just have a couple drinks and all that worry will melt away.”
Eira sighed softly, shaking her head as she looked in the mirror once more. The one thing she did refuse however, was a face caked with makeup. Not that her sister, who wore one, looked bad, but Eira just hated the way it felt on her skin. She wore some on her lips and eyelashes, but other than that her tanned skin was empty.
Within seconds, the girl was being whisked out of her bedroom and down the hallway towards the ballroom by her sister. With a groan she received another glare from Dagny, but Eira only smiled teasingly which made the older girl roll her eyes.
“Come on, there could be suitors there, potentially ones that aren’t a million years old like father keeps picking out.” Dagny raised a brow as they made it atop the staircase.
That was true. Ever since their mother passed and the girls came of age, their father had been set on marrying them off to royalty, whether that be here in Asgard or elsewhere. Though, most of his choices seemed to be old perverts who just wanted fresh meat.
With her hands raised in defeat, the brunette nodded, “Okay, okay. I’ll be on my best behavior.” She grinned playfully as she stepped beside her sister and took her arm.
Dagny simply rolled her eyes, standing straighter as the royal guard announced the two sisters to the ballroom. This was always Eira’s least favorite part of these sorts of events, all of the attention was on her and she hated it. They were watching how she walked, how she smiled, how she’d prepared for the evening, every physical flaw was on display and her face was hot with anxiety. She squeezed her sister’s arm and received a reassuring squeeze back as they reached the bottom of the stairs.
Almost immediately, Dagny found her crowd and was off with a swift wave leaving Eira alone. She made a beeline for the drink table, deciding to do what her sister had suggested and down a few glasses of wine before anyone could approach her.
