How a Royal fell in love with a Commoner

Chapter Twelve

“ I am speaking on behalf of Princess Sarah.” Elizabeth, Queen of England said to the cameras. She looked even older on TV. “As of 10 minutes ago Sarah Leone De Medici has abdicated her claim to the Italian Royal Throne.” At this the Paparazzi cameras started to click as if there was no tomorrow. “I am also happy to announce that the marriage of Princess Sarah and Lucas Jansen, they were engaged this morning” There were claps from the press at that announcement.. Sarah and Lucas beamed at the cameras. Beatrix and Anne standing next to them in the background. With Sky HD the ring sparkled like a bright star as Sarah showed off the ring.

The scene changed from outside the Palace to the news room.“ And that is the latest headline of this hour. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth has announced her granddaughter’s engagement to Lucas Jansen. The details of this marriage have not been announced but will do soon. The other news about the Abdication of Lady Sarah is the reason for the Marriage as it says in European law.. ” Mikolina switched the TV off. She had had enough.

In the Palace apartment Mikolina sat in silence. The room dark and still apart from one small lamp in the corner. Mikolina lost in her thoughts what was she doing? What she had to go through today was very painful. She wanted nothing more but to stand up and give her blessing. Sarah looked so happy when she walked in with Lucas into the room. She was no longer the little Princess who would run around the Palace gardens at her grandmothers Summer Palace. The sweet little girl who loved her grandmother.

Mikolina got up and walked over to her desk. The soft cream carpet felt warm and homely under her feet, she sat at her desk and picked up her IPhone. She tapped the application where she had all her albums. The albums called “ Sarah. Girl to Princess.” Pictures of Sarah filled the screen of the IPhone.

Naturally strawberry blond, pictures of Sarah at 3 months old flickered off and on the screen. Mikolina looked into the child’s eyes, the amount of love she had for granddaughter hasn’t just gone. It was still strongly there. Mikolina placed the IPhone back on the desk and held her head in her hands.

“It was supposed to me to announce her engagement to the word’s press.”  Mikolina shouted angrily to herself. Her tears came flowing down her checks even harder. She was caught by surprise when her IPhone rang. She didn’t even look at the caller because if she did, the phone would of bee flying across the room.

“ Hello.”

“ Your Majesty. How are you feeling?” The voice of El Douche came flowing down the line.

“ You bastard.” Mikolina shouted. Her blood was starting to boil at the sound of his voice.

His laugh made Mikolina cringe. “ I want this to end.” Mikolina said. “ NOW.” She shouted down the phone.

“ Your Highness this game hasn’t even started. I will get what I want, and I will get it. Even without your help. You’re on borrowed time Your Royal Highness.” The phone hung up and Mikolina sat there in anger. She looked at her phone and in one swift moment she flung it at the other side of the room before falling to the floor crying.
