It's The Beginning

Kledina's POV

I was getting my dress fixed up by Lady Wendy, our maid. I insisted she didn't have to do such but she did it anyways. I was looking at myself and at her in the mirror with a worried look. She eyed me with concern.

"Princess, there may be a bit of a concern within the kingdom but a little water doesn't hurt anyone." Wendy spoke with a reassuring tone, it was like she could read my emotions and thoughts like an open book. "But this isn't just a little water! This is an entire flood, thanks to Father casting out that Warlock guy!" i spoke with my eyebrows furrowing.

"Do not speak lowly of or to your superiors, he does so much to protect the Village, if i were you id be grateful to have such a charming man as my relative" Wendy said with a small smile. It made me cringe as she lifted my arm to stitch up the new dress. I stayed quiet as i was thinking to myself.

After Lady Wendy was done, she stood back from her work and smiled. "Oh Princess! What do you think?" she asked me, i looked at myself in the mirror, giving myself a bit of a turn. Pink wasn't exactly my favorite color but i wanted to be nice. "It's quite beautiful Lady Wendy" I spoke with a smile forming on my lips, the glazey lipstick making them shine.

"Your Prince will be quite delighted to see you in such a beautiful dress!" "My PRINCE?!"
