His Royal Highness

Magic

It has been a week since the ball and I haven't seen Levi, he hired a secret tutor for me in magic and I start my lessons today. He said only my ladies and one maid could accompany me plus Noah, so I prepared myself with Violet and headed for the meet-up spot. A carriage was waiting for me outside the Castle to take us to my tutor, this would be an everyday thing until our wedding in four months. I had to learn basic spells before then and start getting advanced before my birthday, which would be the day of our wedding. Months of magic training sounds like a bore to me but my mother was a witch and so am I, I wanna be connected to her as much as possible.

I got into the carriage with Sasha, Violet, and Mikasa while Noah sat with the carriage driver and we headed off.
"It will be a thirty-minute ride to the location Your Grace." Violet said I nodded.
"I can't believe you're mom was a witch!" Sasha said.
"Me either, but she was and to think I am too." I said.
"I always thought you were weird." Mikasa said, I glared at her.
"What? I'm only speaking the truth." she said, I huffed at her.
"Her mother was the greatest woman I ever known." Violet said, I looked at her.
"She would sing to Lady Aria every night before bed and her voice was that of an angel." Violet said, I smiled.
"She sounds wonderful!" Sasha said, Mikasa nodded in agreement.

I looked out the window as we came up upon a mansion, I figured it was the tutor's house. We came to a stop and Noah opened the door and we all exited, the place didn't look like it was up-kept by anyone. The door opened and a woman walked out she was beautiful with long white hair and blue eyes, I was mesmerized by her.
"You must be Aria." she said I nodded.
"Come in." she said as she led us into her house. The inside was beautiful nothing like the outside was, it was breathtaking that I forgot my manners.
"This place is fucking beautiful!" I said, Violet slapped my arm.
"Lady Aria!" she yelled, I covered my mouth.
"Oh please, I don't mind such language since I use it every day." she said.

She led us into the parlor and we all say down while Noah stood next to where I was sitting, a maid brought in tea and snacks. I drank some tea and she introduced herself.
"My name is Arianna." She said, my eyes widened.
"That's my full name!" I said, she smiled.
"Yes, after all, you are named after me dear niece." she said, my eyes widened even more and I dropped my teacup.
"Lady Aria!" Violet says as she cleans up the mess.
"Oh don't worry about it, dear child." Arianna said as she pointed to the mess and it cleaned itself up, everyone gasped.
"She just used magic!" Sasha yelled, Arianna chuckled.
"You're mother and I are sisters, blood sisters, we grew up around magic in our covenant of witches and warlocks." she said.

My mother has a sister and she lived with a village of witches and warlocks? How is any of this true? And how did Levi find my Mother's sister? I had so many questions for her but I would wait till she was done.
"So, that would make you?" Sasha asks, I scowl at her.
"I am actually over two hundred years old and so would your mother if she had lived." she said, I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
"How are you two hundred years old?" Mikasa asked her.
"Witches are granted the ability to never age once they turn twenty and have mastered beginner magic." Arianna said.
"How did Prince Levi find you?" I asked her.
"He didn't. I found him. It's time for you to unlock your Mother's powers before you turn twenty or you will not unlock them till your twenty-fifth birthday." she said.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing, when I turn twenty I will never age. How is that even possible? What about Levi? I felt like my brain was going to explode with all the information I had just gotten, I looked over at everyone else who was as shocked as me.
"Why didn't you come to save Mother?" I asked her, she looked down with sadness in her eyes.
"She forbade me from ever interfering in her timeline." she said.
"What does that mean?" I asked her.
"It means I can change someone's fate just by changing their timeline." she said, I gasped.
"Why would you listen?" I asked her.
"Because changing her timeline would mean she wouldn't have married your father." she said, my eyes widened.
"And then I wouldn't be here." I said, she nodded. I felt sick to my stomach and wanted to lie down but I had to stay focused, I was meeting my Mother's sister my Aunt and she was my tutor in magic.
"Do I look like Mother?" I asked her, and she smiled.
"So much like her." she said as she stood up and pointed to the ground, suddenly a mist appeared, and in the mist formed a woman who was so beautiful.
