L'aire had first thought about popping in to Treasured but... that didn't seem like a good idea. Popping into Treetop, no biggie... Treasured... well, she didn't know her Queen that well so perhaps calling ahead would be smarter.

L'aire had first thought about popping in to Treasured but... that didn't seem like a good idea. Popping into Treetop, no biggie... Treasured... well, she didn't know her Queen that well so perhaps calling ahead would be smarter.
*Ring Ring*
After a couple of rings, someone finally picks up the phone on the other end.
"Thanks for calling Treasured. This is Katrin speaking," said the Winter Queen's familiar voice on the other end.
L'aire didn't expect Katrin to answer the phone, for some odd reason. She had intended to make an appointment or something.
"Hello, this is Sasha. I was wondering if there was a good time for me to stop in sometime?" The Winter Fairest said with a gentle lilt in her voice.
Ah, shit, does she know my public name? I can't remember. The Dancer nearly corrected herself, but she didn't want to chance interrupting her Queen.
There was no response on the other end for a few seconds.
"Sasha? I do not believe I know someone by that name, no?" said Katrin in response. "Store hours are from nine in the morning, to seven in the evening." There was another pause.
"You may stop by after closing time, yes?" said the Onyx Queen after the pause. Perhaps she had recognized the other Fairest's voice; why else would she ask her to come once business hours were over?
Way to go L’aire, not telling your own Queen your other name. Damn it.
“Oh okay, I’ll stop by then.” Although the Winter Dancer froze a moment as Katrin said after hours…and had just said she didn’t know a Sasha. “Thank you very much.” The Fairest said honestly, but waited until her beautiful Sovereign disconnected first.
And the Winter hoped her conversation with her Queen didn’t go this awkward in person.
"I will see you then L'aire," replied the Queen on the other end before hanging up.
After the phone disconnected she looked at it a little stunned. What the... she just said she didn't know a Sasha... How the hell did she know that?
Later that evening, she'd make her way to Treasured.
