When our eyes met

Chapter I: Just a glance

"There's a letter. An invitation,your majesty"

A messenger began to talk, having been given the right to speak further by the woman in front of him. The glow of the lights illuminated the queen's face, making her look evil. Having the power of dark magic made the woman fearsome. It was a great reason for her enemies as well to tremble on the sound of her name. Her eyes were a light green colour. Her slim silhouette sat on her throne while a hand was playing slowly with a foggy cloud between her fingers. She didn't have the patience to listen to the whole invitation the man was reading. A quiet sigh escaped her red velvet lips and looked down at the man. He could already feel these green eyes piercing his, a really uncomfortable feeling he always had every time he went to this Kingdom. He could only wonder what this woman had done to everyone in there to be so obsessed and loyal to her. The man cleared his throat thickly as the woman brushed her black hair back and stood up before finally speaking.

"The Bright Moon brings boring messengers every single time... get to the point. I don't have more time to waste" Her kingdom and the kingdom of Bright Moon.. were standing on shaking ground. The relationships she had with the queen of that kingdom, Angella, got ruined from the time she got sent away because of her summoning dark magic. After that the only thing the black haired woman wanted was to see her under her command and she was close to achieve that.

"Queen Angela is inviting the queen and the princess of the Horde to her palace as well as the rest of the queens, kings, princes and princesses. It's a big celebration accompanied by tournaments, masquerade balls and feasts. Her majesty wishes to know your—"

The man got interrupted by the noise of the door opening on the other side of the room.

"Are you serious!? For real, mother!? You brought yet another prince to me? I told you countless times to —

Ah... hi...?" The young brunette princess walked inside the room. Her cat- like ears laying back against her head and her eyes looked at the messenger before the man bowed to her. Her mismatching eyes looked up at the queen. She was still so frustrated about all this but she tried to at least control herself even if she was late.

"I'm sorry... for the interruption..."

"Catra, you knew I would have a conversation..." Light Spinner walked down close to her and placed a hand on her shoulder in a gentle manner. Catra could feel that she was mad at her. "We are invited to the palace of Bright Moon ,my dear... I'm sure it will be.. More interesting than staying in your champers ... "

Catra loved to write books. She could write for hours and that's what she was actually doing but now with her mother scolding her about it... she couldn't do anything else than follow her in that palace. She already knew that she would try to force into marriage. Her eyes looked away and nodded "Of course... I'll come with you if you want to go" She spoke as a smile formed on Spinner's face and she took a small step away from her. She needed to get out of this place for fresh air after all. "Excuse me again, I'm leaving you two to discuss"

She bowed and walked away, letting the other two to talk. Light Spinner looked at her as she walked. Her eyes returned to the man to make sure he got the message and finally left. Catra on the other hand got prepared for their trip. She gently placed some clothes in her travel bags as she informed her maid to help her. Her companion joined her with some guards as well.

This night was slowly passing by. Catra's night was peaceful but her mother decided to ruin it. The last one walked inside the room as she set down some papers "what is it? I've been taking care of my things already... I suppose you're not going to stay so polite on the same table with Queen Angella.." Catra spoke with confidence. As much as she knew that if she made her mother really angry she would be in trouble she felt lucky enough to risk it. Her blue and yellow eyes looked up at her and crossed her arms over her chest while laying on her bed.
