Heiress (Hanazono Series #2) [Completed]

Heiress 49: Her Debut Part II

Heiress 49

Third Person's POV

The guest, their close relatives and family friends clapped their hands as the first princess of the Hanazono Family climbs up the stage escorted by Jace. Lavalee looked like a goddess ascending to her throne in a fire temple. Her auburn eyes and red hair matched the color of her gown.

She faced the guests and smiled at them. She curtsied and sat on the throne carefully. She saw her uncle and aunt walking up the stage, they smiled at her and curtsied when they stopped in front of her.

"Happy Birthday, my love." Abbigail Fuentabella said and hugged Lavalee

"Thanks, imo." Lavalee replied

"You've grown up into a fine young lady, my dear. Happy Birthday." Lawrence Fuentabella said and hugged Lavalee

"Thank you, Uncle." Lavalee said and they smiled before her uncle walked down the stage, her aunt stayed beside her throne.

Lavalee was surprised when she saw her Aunt Arizza and uncle Cronus.

"Happy Birthday, princess." Her aunt Arizza greeted her

"Aunt, uncle, I didn't expect you'd be here." She said with wide eyes

"Your sister did a great surprise didn't she?" her uncle Cronus said

"Yeah, she did." Lavalee answered with a smile

"Happy birthday, princess." They said and her uncle Cronus kissed her forehead

Her aunt Arriza stood beside her and she noticed the pillows on the small columns on both sides of her throne.

Last to climb up the stage was her older brother who's wearing a gold sash and crown pin on his prince like suit. He wasn't smiling but he was smirking at Lavalee. Lavalee stood up and curtsied when Frost stopped in front of her. Their butler who is acting as the emcee stepped aside from where the microphone is. Frost walked to where the microphone is placed.

"All rise." He said and everyone stood up from being seated.

Abbigail Fuentabella, their aunt and the second daughter of the Ayazaki Family took the crown and stepped forward, she looked at Frost and nodded. Frost stepped aside and went to stand beside Lavalee who's still standing. Their aunt went to the microphone and raised the crown before speaking on the microphone.

"According to our family tradition, the princess of the Imperial Ayazaki Empire shall be crowned as the princess on her 18th birthday while the prince is crowned on his 16th. Our family tradition was inherited from our great ancestors who were one of the biggest and strongest empires in the past. Not only in Japatrein but also from different countries." Abbigail Fuentabella said and looked at Lavalee and Frost then smiled

"Once again, after 4 years, we will be crowning another strong foundation of the Ayazaki Imperial Empire Family." She said and stepped aside

Lavalee was confused when her aunt Arizza stepped forward next while holding a small pin adorned with different jewels.

"This pin is specially made identical to the pin that the first Lady of the Imperial Hanazono Empire had wore. Every gemstone symbolizes one trait that a lady of the imperial empire must have." Arizza said

"Amber for bravery, pearl for loyalty, topaz for perseverance, diamond for trust and sapphire for cleverness." Lavalee recited in her mind

Abbigail walked forward and stood beside Arizza
