The Lost Princess

Chapter 10: Princess Anna

With Bruce in my arms we loaded back into the carriage. Im very happy I found Bruce. I was drawn to the hell hounds as soon as we walked into the pet shop. Bruce walked up to me right away! Once I heard his voice in my head, I felt like I found my best friend.

What are you thinking about my princess?

Im not a princess yet, Bruce.

Youll always be my princess! And youll make a great one at that!

Thank you, Bruce! Im glad I found you!

Talking with your familiar? Nick asks me.

Yes, I am! I respond back with a smile on my face and I lean into him.

I love this girl so much!

I love you too Nick! Nick looks at me baffled.

I didnt say that out loud, sweetheart! Everyone looks at me.

Is it possible for Anna to get a power with just being adopted by you and dad? Leora asks Queen Jade.

Its a possibility that we will have to explore when we get back to the castle. The rest of the ride is quiet, and Bruce stays quietly in my lap. Soon we are back to the castle and unloading out of the carriage.

Welcome back everyone. Bartholomew greets us.

Thank you, Bartholomew! Can you make sure we have all the supplies necessary for the girls familiars please. Queen Jade addressed him.

Of course, your majesty! Bartholomew looks to Leoras kitten and then to my Bruce and he pales slightly and then gets to work. As we head inside another one of the servants comes out in a hurry.

Your Majesties, Lady Julie is ready for the princesses in the fitting room and the king is waiting for you in his office with important matters my queen! Queen Jade rushes off and Leora and I look at each other with worried glances. Then we head off to the fitting room where Lady Julie is waiting for us.

Ah Princesss youre here! I have your gowns ready to be tried on! She gushes. Leora tries hers on first and it fits perfectly! Its a emerald green strapless dress with a slit up one of the sides and gemstones scattered around making it sparkle. I try mine on next. Its a ruby red dress with a off shoulder strap and corset boddice. It flows down my body like water. It shimmers in the light like a diamond.

I must say you out done yourself Lady Julie! These dresses are beautiful! Leora exclaims! I nod my head in agreement trying my best not to cry with how beautiful they are! I look in the mirror and almost dont recognize myself! I look like a true princess. We change back into out clothes and have our dresses sent to our rooms to change into latter for the ball.

Thank you, Lady Julie they are truly beautiful! I say as I exit the room.

Come on Bruce! Lets go I want to show you your new room! Bruce jumps from the chair he had been sitting on and runs over to me and follows me through the castle to my room. In my room now is a dog bed and some puppy toys and treats. Along with a food and water bowl.

Welcome home Bruce!

I was home as soon as you found me my princess! Bruce says as he checks out the dog bed. I sat on my bed and watched him explore and play with all the toys.

Do you think the people will accept me as a princess? I ask Bruce. He stops chewing on a bone and looks up at me.

Of course, my princess! Your kind, courageous, and royal in all ways that matter! Bruce jumps up on my bed and starts licking my face instantly calming me down.

Thank you, Bruce! I really needed that! I cuddle Bruce close and stay that way until its time to get ready for the ball! Once it was time I got up and left Bruce sleeping on my bed. I went into my bathroom and took a quick shower. Then I went into my closet and grabbed the ruby red dress and put it on matching it with black pumps. I did light make up just putting on some eye liner, eye shadow, and lipstick. Next, I styled my hair by blow drying it out and then curling it leaving it down. I put on some golden hoops and a ruby necklace.
