I arrived at the ball with my family. It was full of so many people. I greeted the king and queen of tarai who hosted the ball and sat down waiting for us to leave.
One of the princes there sat beside me and introduced himself as prince zayn. He seemed polite and gave me a good company. We talked for a while and I told him my love for horses and not very surprisingly he also had interest in horse riding. He loved reading just like me, we shared so many interests and had so much in common. It felt like we had known each other for years.

Soon the music started and I actually was having a good time, better than I had expected.
Prince zayn stood up and offered me to the dance. I refused since I don't dance but he insisted so I gave in. He pulled me to the dance floor and I looked up towards his face, gazing into his deep emerald green eyes and then we started dancing to the rhythm. It felt like love at first sight. I don't fall for people as fast but maybe it was because he was this attractive or hot or maybe because of his green eyes that made me so weak.
I got so lost in the dancing that I didn't even realize everyone had stopped and it was just two of us in the middle of ball room.

I didn't like the attention so I stopped dancing and smiled at him. I whispered "we should probably go and sit now, everyone is starting at us". He whispered back " it doesn't matter" he smiled but understood.
We both went and sat down. "My parents are calling so I have to go but I'll be back" he said. He stood up and made it to his way while I started looking around to everyone.

I realized the that queen Jude was staring at me like I had done something wrong. I saw zayn approach her and say "hey mother" I gasped. "Shit" I said to myslef. I then realized the queen must be definitely staring because I was dancing with his son when this whole ball was suppose to be about none other than Zayn's soon happening engagement.

How was I supposed to know zayn was queen Jude's son. I just thought he was a good looking prince invited to the ball just like me.

I felt so embarrassed. I don't even know why I got the unnecessary attention.
I looked and saw a very pretty lady standing next zayn. I assumed she might be her soon to be fiance, the one he was getting engaged to.

Everything felt weird so I decided to go outside for some fresh air. I came across this garden with fountain in the middle. I went and sat down next to the fountain where bunch of daisies laid. I started questioning my thoughts. "Why did I even come here in the first place" I said to myself. I mean yeah it was wierd he danced with me but why would he do that if was getting engaged soon?. "Anyways" I said to myself. The place was so crowded and I didn't have the energy to deal with it so I guess I would spend the rest of the time here.

While I was still in my thoughts, admiring the beauty of nature and the sky, I heard a loud noise behind me, a thud. I turned my head and saw zayn with a creepy looking old woman.
