A year ago.....

I was sitting in our garden on a fountain playing with a rose as I swung my feet back and forth.

"Princess why don't you go play with the other kids" my nanny asked.

"Cause they don't like my eyes and am not the queens biological child and my mother was the most wanted murderer in the world they are afraid of me" I said looking down at the rose as my nanny comforted me.

"Princess don't be sad when you grow up you'll see how unique you are and your eyes it doesn't matter who your family is as long as you make your mark that stays forever" Nanny Adelle said smiling.

"But my mom has already made her mark and now she's locked up somewhere I don't know and it was a bad mark now they all hate me I don't think it can ever go away" I said jumping off the fountain and landed on the ground.

"Princess be careful" she said fearing for me to fall.

"Where is father" I asked already knowing the answer.

"He is out with princess Salena and Prince Kaleb my lady" and I forced a smile

"You know Nanny your the only one in this palace who cares about me and even if you don't and is just pretending I appreciate you for not treating me as the maids treat me" I said smiling bitterly.

"I'll go up to my room you don't have to follow me" I said to my nanny and began walking back to the palace leaving the anny behind.

The guards ignored me and kept on talking not even greeting me they just acted like I wasn't there but it's happens so many times that I don't care anymore.
I walked in the ballroom and found my way to the stairs I lifted my dress and walked up thinking of my mother, I wonder what she would have done if she were here Maybe with her personality she would burn down this whole palace not even ashes would remain. But am not my mother.

As I reached the top My half brother Kaiden came into view he was the second eldest and he hated me with his entire soul and heart.
For the reason I will never know. It's not like my birth affected him in any shape or form he just hated me.

"Prince ka-" I tried to say but he sneered at me and grabbed my arms pulling me to him and then he screamed at me.

"Don't call my name out of your mouth, You bastard!" he said then shoved me making me almost stumble down the stairs but luckily I held the railings. I looked up at him shocked I always knew he didn't welcome me but to try and kill me was something I never expected.

"Broth-ah" I screamed as he slapped me making me lose balance and tumble down the stairs.
I really thought that I was going to die I was at the top of the stairs and in mere seconds did it take for me to roll to the bottom.

As I fell I got a glimpse of his face he had no remorse he didn't care if lived or died he just looked at me with satisfaction and walked away not even calling for a doctor.

My small body landed at the bottom of stairs and I was going in and out of consciousness this part of the palace isn't often used and most servants are preparing for the feast in the west hall far away from here.

I laid there for a while barely keeping my eyes closed, I looked up at the stained glass ceilings and admired the artwork of an angel holding a baby.

So pretty.

I was just about to succumb to my injures when I heard my nanny call out for me she was crying heavily but I was paralyzed and could barely move I just wished I could tell her.

It didn't hurt. Then she'd cry less, doesn't she know she needs to save her tears on people who matter like her family.

With that thought I saw the world slowly go black, I was in a coma and I knew there was no way in hell was I going to let this continue to happen.
