"Who is it?"

"It's your knight and honor"

I roll my eyes and hop off the comfy bed.
I opened the doors and locked eyes with dark brown eyes. They made me want look down immediately and so I did. For some reason I felt nervous even though I shouldn't.

"Umm, yes what would you like," I said with a bored voice. I stared straight at his chest, I hate eye contact, especially with people I don't like.

"Look into my eyes," he said in an annoying voice, it's like he knew I wouldn't fall for his tricks.
I stared into his eyes asking again, "what do you want"

"I wanted to officially greet you, I wish Steven would have let me"

"It seemed you were too busy flirting"

"It's a free kingdom"

He said that with an evil smile.
"I'm glad you said that, nice meeting you and goodbye."

I was so close to closing the door when his hand flew through.

"Wait, your name"

"NO"

I woke up and freshened up before putting on my uniform. I walked downstairs and found Steven waiting for me.

"Good morning Steven"

"Good morning, I'll lead you to the kitchen, if you need any help, I'll be here"

"Thank you," I said and went inside to get breakfast.

I decided have blueberry muffins, eggs , and freshly squeezed orange juice, with a side of bread and butter. I went hefty with servings due to the king and prince's size.

Yesterday, I asked where the Queen was and he explained how she died last year due to sickness, he believes that's why his son is acting that way. The Queen's sister is standing in her place until the King finds a new wife, but with the way he talked about her I don't think that is ever going to happen.

I whisked the eggs, the finishing piece to the meal. Eggs are always cooked last.
I placed the food on the tray and heard the voices of three in the dining room.

"No William, you need to find a wife NOW, it's what she would want."

"She would NOT want that"

"ENOUGH," the prince screamed.

"YOUNG MAN-"

"Breakfast is ready," I walked nervously into the dining room and place their plates in front of them.

I felt a pair of brown eyes on me, but decided to ignore it.
I went to bring the last plate, also the biggest to the prince.

He looked up and smiled and whispered thank you.
I smiled back, wait why did I smile back. He looked so pretty in that mom- NO.

I went back to the kitchen to eat my plate, I figured when I was done eating they would be too. I went back out to a room filled with silence and animosity.

"Breakfast was delicious thank you very much," the King said.
His sister-in-law just had an emotionless look on her face but her plate was finished and that said enough.

I went to the other end of the oak table and grabbed the prince's plate.

"My name is Ella," I whispered.

"Cane, lovely to meet you"
