I heavy breathed. I looked at Asher then to the King. A big smile covered his wicked face. He was actually smiling. Ash was just staring at his parents the past minutes, and no words came out. I stared at them for a couple of minutes and they stared back. The queens eyes were sparkled with amusement. I decided to act smart. Besides im here to kill them, not symbolize them. It would b amusing to play a little game with them.
I finally spoke. "I'm not sure what you people are putting your self into, but I assure you if I am the lost princess, do the Royals of Neveria know about this"
The kings smile grew then wider.
"Of course my dear, we just send the Commotion"
The Queen stood before the king .her gown swirled with gold vines, and her blond hair covered her entire back.
"Now that you are the member of the Imperial family, you must look and act like one"
They want to turn me into an etiquette puppet, oh great...
The maids took me into a huge room. The room had the biggest bed I ever seen. The closet was enormous and the balcony was ten times bigger. It didn't seem bad to have some luxury for my self. my muddy boots were not allowed in the room. One of the maids demanded me to take them off. I did but I threatened her not to throw them away, she was totally spooked out.
The maids stood and introduced themselves.
"I'm Silvia" said the girl with curl blond hair.
"Amoretta"
"Charlize"
The three of them curtsied.
"I'm Vera, oh I mean-"
"lady Veradetta"said Amoretta.
I gave her a sly blush. "Just call me Vera"
"Very well Lady Vera, we have orders to make you a princess material, and believe me Mademoiselle, you will be mesmerized!"
Silvia went in the bathroom and opened the bath. Charlize went to the closest and Amoretta got the towels.
It's time for a makeover.
Amoretta did my hair, while Silvia and Charlize rushed to find me a gown. Then though it seems like a dream come true, but I still didn't forget what im really here for, revenge.
Silvia pulled me a strapless black and red gown that had a black ribbon on the waste, and lace ruffles at the end.
They watched while I dressed which I though was a little creepy. They gave me a little touch up with make up and gave me a mirror. I gasped when I saw my reflection. The girl staring in front of me, wasn't me, it was someone else. Someone with beauty, loyalty and perfection. I really do look like a princess. Tears almost dropped from my eyes. the maids were clapping to themselves proudly. Silvia was right, I did get mesmerized.
I joined the Royal family for dinner. I sat right across from the king. His eyes have been focused on mine the whole time. The food was extraordinary. I never ate anything delicious in my life. Poor miss Kitten, she would be really disappointed.
Ash focused into his food the whole entire time, he didn't look at me, but when I entered he's eyes were truly amazed. Next to the Queen was the kings cousins son. He had blond hair and gray eyes. He sat the whole time broadly making jokes with the king and queen. He did have a good sense of humor. His name is Charles Swan. he didn't look at me at all the entire time.
Next to Ash was Charles little sister, Sallibella. She played with her food the entire time.
After dessert the king blessed the food. He announced that their will be a ball tomorrow to celebrate the peace between the providence and Nevernia, also to welcome me. By this far, the king didn't seem like a bad guy, but I assured my self behind that smart smile, is a cruel man.
After dinner was over, I returned to my room. I told my maids to let me change on my own, and tolf them good night. I didn't bother wear the night gown, it was just not my style. I actually missed my thick armor. Oh how it made me soo comfortable and protective. I found a shirt and pajama pants in one of the drawers and put them on. I went into the comfortable bed, and swam myself into the silky cover. The luxury seemed amazing, but I knew what was buried under the luxury is far more darker, then I could imagine.
