Throne Of Allure

Chapter 1

Daisy

"What's your dress for the ball?" Willow asks me, as she takes a sip of her water. Florence, Willow and I are sitting out in the garden of the palace. The weather is pretty good. 

Florence June Hawthorne is the princess of Vafra and one of my best friends. Her parents are the king and queen of Vafra. She and I grew up together. She was born a few months before me, but we are the same age. 

Willow Blake is the daughter of one of the world's most famous couples. Theo and Wren Blake own a lot of hotels around the world. Willow became friends with me and Flo when we were 3 years old. 

And there is me. I'm Daisy Emmet, daughter of the prime minister of Vafra, Atlas Emmet. My mum is a pretty famous lawyer. She owns her law firm. My parents are really good friends with King Spencer and Queen Dahlia. 

"No clue but I am thinking of going for something blue," I reply to Willow's question. "What about you, Flo?" 

"I'm thinking of yellow." She replies. "The ball is three days away. We need to go buy the dresses as soon as possible." Willow and I nod our heads in agreement. Just before I can say anything, an annoying voice interrupts me. 

"What are you guys doing, sitting in the grass?" Louis asks. Louis also known as Louis Graham Hawthorne is the prince of Vafra and an annoying creature. I hate his guts. Sad to say that he is my best friend's brother.  Next to him is my dear brother, Everett Emmet. 

"What does it look like we are doing?" Flo asks, looking up at her brother. He doesn't reply. 

Everett turns to me. "Daisy, let's leave?" And I nod. I get up from the grass and say goodbye to Florence and Willow. And just when I thought I'd leave peacefully, Louis speaks up. 

"You aren't going to say bye to me?" 

"And why the fuck would I do that?" I ask him, looking into his annoyingly blue eyes. Before Louis can even reply, Flo speaks up. "Why don't you get going? We'll meet each other tomorrow to pick out our dresses." I nod and leave not before glaring at Louis.

My brother just dropped me off at my apartment. I would have used my car to get to the palace, but Everett dropped by yesterday, so we decided to go in his car. My brother and I are close to the royal family. It's like the palace is our second home. Everett is closer to Louis and Maxwell while I am closer to Florence and Adelaide. 

After 10 minutes of sitting on my couch and staring off into space, I get up and go into my bathroom to change into something comfortable. I wore grey sweatpants with an oversized shirt last night, so I got changed into that. I walk into my bedroom and grab my laptop that was charging. I settle on my bed and open my laptop. I open Google Docs and click on the recent document. 

I still haven't told anyone I am an author. I have 1 book published, and I am writing the second book, but I'm in my writer's block for the past few weeks. The deadline is December 24 and currently, it's September 25. I have around a few months which is enough time if I get out of my writer's block. 

My first book is Moonlight and my pen name is Lou Em. I chose Lou because I always adored that name. Am I ever going to tell my parents about me being an author? Maybe. I don't know how they will react to it. 

After about 10 minutes of staring at the laptop screen, I decided to put on a song to make me get ideas. I go onto Spotify and go to my playlists. The song 'I Wanna Be Yours' by Arctic Monkeys plays. I slowly hum to the song and try writing, it kinda works. 

After an hour of writing, I close my laptop and put it back on my desk. I check the time on my phone, and it's 5:13. I decide to go grocery shopping for dinner since my fridge is empty. I go to my closet and pick out a quick comfy outfit to go out. I chose a pink knitted sweater since it is cold. I have a tank top under it. I also chose some grey sweatpants to go with it. 

(A/N: this is what I imagined but you guys can choose it yourself.)

I go and get my purse, grab my car keys and put on my shoes. I make my way to the elevator and step in. I press the button and scroll through my phone while waiting. I hear a ding and walk forward. 

"Going somewhere, Miss Emmet?" I hear Joe's voice. I look at him and smile. Joe is the sweetest old man you'll meet. He has a heart of gold. He's the security guard of this apartment and the best person who can keep you company. 

"Just going grocery shopping, Joe," I reply to his question.  He smiles. "Okay, be careful." 

I nod and leave. The shop is near my apartment. Just a 3-minute walk. I walk into the supermarket and grab a trolley. The supermarket isn't full of people which is great because being the prime ministers daughter isn't easy. I mean, yeah, you don't do shit like your father, but you'll get followed by paparazzi. Should I have gone in disguise? Yeah. But it's alright. I look like shit anyway at the moment. After getting everything I wanted I go to the cashier and check out. I didn't get that much since I can just go back tomorrow with my car since if I do get everything I wanted today, I wouldn't be able to carry everything. 

***

I unlock the door of my apartment and enter with the groceries. I leave the groceries in the kitchen and check the time. It's already 6:00. I've been at the supermarket for too long. I get ready to cook while thinking of tomorrow. I have to go dress shopping.

A/N: It may not be much but I feel like shit. I feel like it's not good enough but that's for you to decide.  I am not really familiar with royalty but I always had scenarios for this so I hope it's good.
