why me...

part one

I woke up. I stretched. I got dressed.

"Good morning Litzy. How are you this morning?" Ryann asked as I left the girl sevent lodge.

"Can't complain. Is there anywhere I need to go this morning?"

"The prince would like his room cleaned before he is done with breakfast."

"First, second or third?"

"Third." I sighed.

"Thank you." I walked up to the cleaning station and up to the royal hall. First door on the left was the first man. The next door was on the right. That room is for the twins. Two down on the right was the third prince. Everyone was asleep. I knocked on the door. I waited. He opened the door.

"Are you the maid?" I saw his bare feet.

"Yes sir."

"Look up." I knitted my eye brows together.

"Sir?" He sighed.

"I said look up." I looked up at his chest. It was bare also. He sighed when he knew I wasn't going to look up any further. It was against the rules set here that we cannot look a royal in the eye. Or even look at their face. He moved aside and let me enter. He walked over to his closet and grabbed some cloths.

"I would like my cloths that aren't clean taken down to the laundry room, My bathroom cleaned. Along with the windows shined, bed made and the clean cloths folded and put away where they belong. And I want it done by the time I get back from breakfast with my father and brothers. Is that clear?"

"Yes sir." I answered towards my feet. He sighed again and walked around me and shut the door. I looked up and looked at the room. I had my work cut out for me. Cloths on the floor, the bed needed to be made-not changed though, I myself just changed it- and the window looked like a good cleaning was needed. I sighed and headed strate to the bathroom. I turned on the light and found myself looking at a beautiful bathroom that actually was very clean. I sighed and quickly got to work.

The toilet was easy to clean and the shower just needed some clear cleaner on the doors and I headed over to the sink and counter. It was pretty clean but I wiped it down to be sure. I grabed the towl and wash cloths and replaced them with fresh ones that were in the closet right by the door.

As I left the bathroom and entered the other room. I picked up cloths that needed to be washed and put them in a pile. I picked up the other things and folded the cloths and put them where they belonged. The room almost looked clean. I went over to the window that covered about half of the wall. I sighed and pulled out my glass cleaner and sprayed the rag. The window was easy and finally I fixed the bed. First I took the pillows off and then I pulled the white sheet passed where the pillows would lay. Next came the black blanket that felt like velvet and pulled that to the length of the other one. Lastly I pulled the red comfeter up and placed the pillows where they belonged. I looked around the room. Finished.

I grabbed my bag of cleaning supplies and then the pile of cloths. I turned around and jumped as I looked at the prince in the eyes. I should of felt fear, but I didn't. He had deep blue eyes that shifted back to a sky blue color. He had a thin mouth and a sharp nose. His cheek bones where evident and so was his smiled.

"See now, thats not so hard after all was it?" I looked back down, but he gentlty and he rased my head. His hand felt weird again my skin. Almost like it was heating up. His face was inches from mine when I finally looked. I could feel his breath on my face, it smelled like chocolate and vanilla. I had a strange urge to kiss him. I don't know why, but when I looked back at his lips all I could think about was how much I wanted to feel them against my face. They turned up into a smile. Not a cold smile, but a gentle at ease smile, like I had just said what he was going to say himself.

"You did." His voice played with me as his lips moved to form the words.

"what..." I wanted to ask him what he ment but my voice wouldn't listen. He chuckled and leaned his face forward. I tried to pull back. I was human. I was under him. He should of wanted someone else. He should of wanted someone with more power. Someone who wasn't human.

"Silly girl, I need you," He said before his lips touched mine and I dropped what was in my hands. I felt warm and content. Like this was where I belonged. He kissed deeper and walked forward making me walk backward and land on the bed with him over me. His kiss deepened and I followed suit wrapping my arms around his neck. There was a small voice that said this was wrong, that I shouldn't be doing this. That he deserved better than me, but like everyother doubt he wiped it away with a deeper kiss.

He pulled away and looked at me. Questions flooded into my mind.

"Do you know what today is?" He said as he loomed over me playing with my hair. I thought hard and than it hit me.

"H-How old are you?" He smiled.

"Twenty-one." His eyes changed color again.

He was 21! He could now find his soul keeper. When a beig with power turns 21 their soul cries out to them and they go on a surch for their soul keeper who is their other half. The one person that they will spend the rest of their life with. And I am the Princes Soul Keeper! I am just a human. I have no power! I-he interupted me with a kiss that washed all my doubts away. His ocean of calm swept me away and calmed me down. All I wanted was him. I felt him smile as he put his hands on my hips and made his way down lifting my legs so I had to wrap them around his waist. He picked me up and and crawled further on the bed. My guess would say we were in the middle of the bed when he put me back down and kissed me with more passion. I wanted him near me-no I needed him closer. I needed to feel his warm skin press against mine.

Someone knocked one the door and the Prince pulled away with anger in his eyes.

"What do you what?" a muffled voice came from the other side.

"Prince Isaac that servant that came to clean your room this morning, was she still here when you came back from breakfast?"

"Why?"

"Her servant guard has more jobs they need her to do before lunch." Oh crap! I forgot I had other chores to do. I've never been late to any task I was given.

"She's still here. I'll send her to him when she's done here."

"Thank you sire." The man said before Prince Isaac looked back at me.

"W-when will I be done here?" He almost seemed hurt by my question than he smiled.

"Once I've claimed my soul." When a power being finds his soul keeper he has to claim his soul and give her her soul, but the prosses is long and trust me you don't want to know all the details.

"I have to work though..." I wanted to stay here more than anything, but I also knew I had to go work to earn my place here. He sighed and then leaned down to kiss me again. Just a quick kiss, but it was enough.

"Fine, but I'm not letting you out of my sight." He got off of me and I missed that closeness we had. He was going to be the death of me. He chuckled as I sat up and made my way off of his bed.

This was going to be one hell of a day.
