Lady Whistledown:
There is Nothing Quite like the Sweet-Scented smell of Success. But after Taking in the Scene from last Night's festivities, It is clear that this season won't be quite so Fragrant for everyone. The Viscount Bridgerton's own Mama may have Loudly declared her son's lofty intentions to Marry. Yet I cannot be the Only one Wondering if this former Capital-R-Rake is, Indeed ready to Flourish.
Perhaps the Viscount, like the rest of us, is Simply waiting for the Queen to finally name her Diamond or Perhaps this Author should take matters into her own hands.

Cass took a sip from the punch while Observing Ella dancing with someone. Anne fanned her because of the Heat.
" Ah! Lady Bridgerton, Miss Bridgerton. Such a shame your presentation at Court was rudely interrupted!" The Queen greets them, Eloise scoffs quietly "Shame indeed." She mumbles
" I nearly forgot that you were making your Debut this season! After your Elder sisters Triumph. Perhaps good fortune might run in the Family." The Queen expressed, It earned a Snicker from Cressida Cowper. Cassandra eyed the Young Miss and continued to sip on her drink
" Uh, it is a Delightful ball Your Majesty -- Very Diamond-y. Though I must admit that I am more of an Emerald Person myself." Eloise adds, The Queen eyed her as she went back beside her mother and Cleared her Throat
An Heartful laugh escaped the Queen "Oh, Dear! My favorite Necklace, Is one of Emeralds -- How very Thoughtful of you to know that."
Eloise chuckles as she bowed and quickly ran away from her position. The Queen gestured Cassandra to talk with her, Cassandra gave the Punch to Anne and went beside The Queen "Yes Auntie?" Cassandra asks
" Miss Bridgerton is Imperfect, But Perfect as A Diamond." The Queen whispers "What do you think my dear?"
" Well, I believe she wouldn't want to be in the Spotlight, So I would suggest pick someone else." Cassandra says and The Queen raised a Brow
" Which 'Someone' is this?" The Queen asks, Cassandra shrugs "I do not know. But anyone than Miss Bridgerton."
The Queen nods and looks far away, Cassandra decides to get more punch as Anne already swallowed hers full. She left the Queen's side, She got to the Long table she poured herself a drink
" Cassandra!" Someone calls out, She turned to look and it was Miss Bridgerton her self "Oh hello Miss Birdgerton. How may I-"
" Did I charm the Queen?" She asks, Cassandra thinned her lips "Maybeee?"
She took a Glass of punch a chugged all of it "I do not want to be the-"
" Do not worry, I already talked her Majesty out of it... It looks like she's still considering.." Cassandra says as she took a sip from her Punch. Eloise Breathed Heavily "Calm yourself, You'll be fine."
" I hope I will"
Then the Trumpets went off. Cassandra places her glass down and ran back to her Position, The Queen glides her way to the floor
" Your Presence is Noted, and Your Queen most Appreciative. Allow it to now be my Honor to present the Seasons Diamond. " The Queen eyed Eloise. Oh No.
" Miss Eloise Bridgerton." She says a the Crowd gasps and looked at the Young Bridgerton, Eloise was Mortified. Cassandra thinned her lips
" I-" Eloise couldn't speak. With her Last resort, She ran away. Lady Bridgerton chased after her daughter, Cassandra sighed deeply

Lady Whistledown
It is no Secret that Her Majesty the Queen has an Discerning eye when it comes to choosing, But who would have expected that Miss Eloise Bridgerton is to be a victim from her Majesties eye, Yes, Miss Eloise Bridgerton. The Season's Diamond, The most Incomparable. Wherever the Young Miss may be, Let us all hope that she herself will be enjoying the Attention her Majesty placed upon her.
" Lords from the Above. Victim?" Cassandra asks her Aunt in disbelief "That is how she insults me so." The Queen chirps as she patted her Pet Pomeranian
" Unbelievable...." Cassandra says as she continues to read the sheet
But... I should say there is Another Gem already in the Corner... waiting to be Noticed?
Her Majesty The Princess Cassandra Elizabeth Schmidt
The Latest Visitor in her Majesties Palace since a few weeks before the Presentation, Often seen with the Seasons Diamond. It is no hiding that they are Friends, This Author is Envious knowing that these two Gemstones may help eachother in the Future because of their Reputations as the Seasons most Incomparable.
Lords from the above, The Princess is Finally Involve in the Scandal sheet. She threw the sheet at the Table and placed her elbow on the Arm rest and covered her mouth with her knuckles
" Hm..." The Queen hums "Does she belittle me that so. Helping? I would never dream of helping Miss Bridgerton or else we'll both find our names Back in that Scandal sheet." Cassandra rebuked
" Do not fret dear, I will uncover that Writer-"
" Your Majesties, The Carriage is ready to the Races..." The Butler announced, Cassandra nods and stands up. " I must get my Ladies if you will excuse me Auntie."

" Oh goodie! Look at the Horses Anne!" Ella exclaims "All horses are the same, Animals." Anne says as she puts on her gloves
" Are there any Biscuits?" Ella asks the Queen and she chuckles " More than you can ever Imagine my Dear."
Ella smiles and keeps looking out the Window "Poor Aurora couldn't join us, I'm rather getting suspicious of her." The Queen whispered to Cassandra " I trust Aurora with all my life, I'm sure she just got a Cold."
" Hm..." The Queen hummed "May we stop here" The Queen commands and the Carriage stops. The Footman opened the door
" Your Majesty." The Footman says as the Queen stepped out of the Carriage, All of the people bowed down to the Monarch as she began so walk to her tent
" What a Lovely afternoon." Ella says as she took Cassandra's arm "Are those... Oh my!" Anne exclaims as she ran forward to the stands. She took the scarf from an hook and Felt the fabric
" Oh my, French Fabric!" Anne says happily, Ella then follows her as they inspect the scarf. Cassandra chuckles lightly as she walked towards them "You want it?" The Princess asks, The 2 Ladies look at her in Disbelief
" No, I was just admiring it." Anne says and Cassandra rolls her eyes playfully "If you Admire it so." She took out her Coin purse "Wait No No-" Cassandra paid the man responsible for the Stand
" Cass-"
" It's necessary to have a Souvenir bought in England, It will be a Decade before we come back here again." Cassandra says and Anne smiles "Thanks."
" Cassandra Dear, Come along now, The horses are not going to stand in the Blazing heat all day long!" The Queen called out to the Princess
-
High Flyer won and poor Nectar got injured "Will it be alright?" Ella asks Cassandra and she hums in approval
" Oh dear, It's best if we get going, The sun is already kissing my skin!" The Queen exclaims
" I Would prefer to stay here Aunt Lottie, I'm sure I'll find some ways to entertain myself." Cassandra adds and The Queen nods "Yes, Yes just make sure not to loose anything while I am gone." The Queen says as her and her ladies leave for the Carriage
" Did you just stay here for the Tiny Cheesecakes with Blueberries on top?" Anne asks Cassandra and the Princess eyes her
" What? They're good!" The Princess protests " Gosh, Well if we are really to stay here, we must atleast buy something hmm?" Anne asks the Princess, Taking her arm
" I've already BOUGHT you something, it is Ella's turn." Cassandra reminds Anne "But Ella Isn't here... Is she?" Anne asks, The Princess looked around and Ella was indeed not around
" Oh lords." Cassandra mumbled
Anne Hums as Cassandra took her leave outside the tent
-
" Where are you Ella." Cassandra mumbles to herself as she looks around, Then she spotted her, With the Man he danced with earlier this week
" Ella!" Cassandra shouts as she stomped her way to Ella "Cass, Something wrong?" She asks as she was toe to toe at her "I was looking for you..."
" Well -- Francis was also looking for me." Ella says as she took the Gentlemans arms " Your Majesty." He bowed and Cassandra put on a Fake Smile " Your Grace." Cassandra greeted the man
Francis was an Earl, Came from the Long line of the Latimer's. A high respected Man who is already 1 and 30 while Ella is 3 and 20. Love is all that he seeks, Unsure if he also seeks the Pleasurable pursuits of the Martial bed
" Mm... We must get Going now Ella. There are more duties to do." Cassandra tries to pull her Lady away but she resists " May we just please spend more time?" She begs, Cassandra eyes her. "Fine, You have until 3 o' clock"
Ella smiles and runs back to him, Cassandra sighs knowing that One day, all of her Ladies will get married and leave her.
" Lovely Afternoon Is it not Miss?" A man asks, She turned to look and see it was a Man, Handsome, With an Top Hat and a Navy Blue coat.
It was No denying that He was indeed a Bridgerton
" Pardon me Sir but I believe I do not know you..." Cassandra says and the Man Looked at Him
" Viscount Bridgerton, And you are?" He asks the Princess and she fixes her Posture
"Princess Cassandra Elizabeth Schmidt" Cassandra introduced herself, The man looked at her as if he has seen a Ghost. "Lord Bridgerton?" She asks
" Pardon me Your Highness -- I was simply absentminded for a Moment-"
" Anthony, Oh Your Majesty." Lady Bridgerton greeted the Princess "I am Surprised to yet see you here, The Queen had just left a few minutes ago."
" I have decided to stay back and enjoy the Lovely sights here." Cassandra explains and Lady Bridgerton nods
" And I also hope that you have received the Invitation to our Country Estate next week yes?" Lady Bridgerton asks, Cassandra looked slightly confused
" I haven't received a Letter yet, But I would be delighted yet" She pauses for a moment to clear her Throat " My Brother -- Prince Fredrich is Coming to visit again after, Last season."
" We would be honored to Invite the Prince aswell." Lady Bridgerton happily chirps
" I trust they are to come to the Country earlier than the other guests Yes?" Anthony asks his Mother in which she nods
" I am sure." Lady Bridgerton says
" Lovely to make your Acquaintance Bridgertons, But I believe I must head back to the Palace."
" Ofcourse Your Majesty" Lady Bridgerton curtsied as Lord Bridgerton bowed. Cassandra smiles as she walks away
" She is a lovely Lady." Lady Bridgerton compliments
" Indeed Mother." Anthony says as he took her arm
