•Emery's POV•
The Crown, my world revolves around it. It's hard not to when you're next in line to the thrown.
Her Royal Highness,
Princess Emery Alexander Montgomery.
My whole life has been in the public eye, from the moment I was born to right now, I've had cameras in my face filming my every move, waiting for me to make a mistake, fall, say the wrong thing, act the wrong way.
In a few years-on my 24th birthday, I'm expected to take the throne when my father retires. I've been training for this my whole life, taking etiquette lessons, foreign languages classes everything you can imagine,
I've taken a class for it.
Normal childhood?
Never heard of it.
Kinda hard to have one with the lifestyle I've been given. Don't get me wrong, I'm very grateful for everything I have and the opportunities I get with my title.
When I was younger I used to imagine my family and I were 'normal', with normal jobs, and a normal house as I got older I realized that was never going to be possible so I gave up on that dream.
My parents weren't around much when I was growing up I always had a nanny to watch over me.
Speaking of family, let me introduce you to mine.
Firstly, there's my lovely younger sister Annabelle or The Princess Annabelle Lilian Montgomery depending on who you're talking to. She's truly a spitting image of our mother with her light brown hair and green eyes, While I have darker brown hair and brown eyes, I've always been told I look more like my father anyway.
My sister and I have always been close, despite our five-year age difference, I mean we had to be since we didn't have many friends growing up.
Next, my mother, Her Majesty Queen Genevieve. My mother tries her hardest to be around for me but it's a little too late for that to start so let's not get into that. When I was younger she was just like my Father, completely consumed with this life. Now that she's getting closer to retirement she's slowed down slightly.
Lastly, there's my father, His Royal Highness King Alexander Montgomery the third. We've never been close, he only talks to me when I'm needed somewhere or I must learn something more to prepare for the crown. To him, public image is one of the most important things for us to keep up.
