Our Prince Charming(discontinued)

Chapter 7

Disclaimer: this chapter has mentions of abuse and violence.

She could not understand why he had approched her. The only conclution she could come up with in her head was that he must be trying to use her for power. Nothing else made since, unless he wanted to use and humiliate her.

Why would the "prince charming" choose her over someone like Jeanette? Someone like that lovely princess?

Should't the lovely princess naturally end up with the prince?

Athanasia bitterly thought laying tiredly on her bed. She didn't like it, the thought of them togather. It set a bitter taste in her mouth. And everyone who knew Athanasia knew she prefered sweets. A part of her wanted to belive that the new charakter she never heard of was there for her.

Someone who would change the storyline and save her, stop the endless cycle of pain she was trapped in.

She wanted him to save her, despretily so. But the bigger part of her had given up long time ago. She went towards her closet and looked for a gown she could wear to the ball that was coming up. The ball Augustus had invited her to.

'What if its a trick? I'll go there and he's already there with another date?' She sighted.

Soon she realised that either the dresses she had already been worn before or were very old.

She sighted to herself.

Perhaps she should wear the same dress she had the other day?

She shook her head and went out in the gardens to get some air. And there someone stood. A butler seemingly holding some type of box in his hands.

Obviously trying his best hiding it in his coat and failing due to the size of it.

She snickered as she saw him.
And eventually she decided to go up to him.

"Sir?" She asked making him jump up in surprise.

"Ah yes-princess?!?"
The man responded.

She snickered again amused by his antics. She cleared her throat.

"What is it your holding there?"

She asked trying not to sound to curious.

The man perked up and smiled at her.

"Oh it's a gift from young master pierce" he said with a smile.

"A gift?"

She imagined Augustus sending gifts to Jeanette and for some reason that taught sent a bad feeling through her.

'Why should I even care?' She thought.

"It's actually a gift to you from young master your highness" her head instantly went up.

Confusion was written over her face.

"What did you say?"

The man answered the same again though this time it sounded more like a question.

"He sent it to you?"

She became quiet.

She then walked towards him and took the gift.

Then she turned around and went back to her chambers without saying a word.

She opened the box and her eyes widened.

In the box there laid a beautiful silk silvery dress which had small blue flowers embroidered into it.

Suddenly lily called her name out. She immediately shut the lid of the box and threw it under her bed so that no one would see it.

"Yes?"

"It's dinner time your highness"

"Alright" she responded.

"What the fuck do you think your doing?" A booming voice shouted not before slapping the teen before himself.

"Sending gifts and being friendly with that wench of a princess?"

"You have no right to ruin our family name brat!"

The man pushed the boy in the gut.

The boy threw up some saliva and coughed as he fell to the floor.

"She is not a wench! And I'm not befriending her I'm courting her!"

The silver haired boy exclaimed only to be met with a hit after another.

"What the fuck did you say boy? You will not court her. You will do as I say boy or you will face consequences"

the man spat on the boy before walking towards his office door.  Then he stopped and turned around.

"I expect you to start pursuing princess Jeanette" then he left the boy alone.

"Dream on you bastard"
the boy muttered to himself while his purple eyes shined in fury.
