The next day after a long walk we arrive , Of Course she didn't let me come alone , she made that husband of her's escort me!

My legs are worn out , they feel so weak , we don't have a horse which is the main mean of transport in our kingdom , they are mostly found in rich families,to some extent am glad we don't have one because even if we did , this old witch who has no compassion at all would have used it alone and make me run after him!

He went back after making sure I entered the massive, iron and metal sheeted , tall wide gate , full of guards around . The guards that am guessing were assigned to walk the guests inside took me to the venue . I don't have even the slightest energy to look around , am so nervous, anxious, tired and  all that .

I raise my head for the first time after entering  and my eyes meet a beautiful view of  many girls in beautiful long dresses standing in rows and columns, seems I was the only one late, but luckily the royal family isn't here yet , their royal chairs are empty .
There's no way auntie Christabel is going to have a chance here because the competition is stiff.

In my average looking black dress which is oversize making me drain in it , I struggle to walk to the last column in the middle row. Those girls follow me with their eyes , some giggling, others laughing quietly, am sure there minds are full of " what is this lunatic doing here?" Even My hair doesn't suit me , even though it looks like girls' , it's not as beautiful.

My head hanged low , but it raises instantly when I hear a man's loud strong voice announce the arrival of the royal family.

I couldn't see them clearly because of my poor height , but hey! am not that short.

Why are they here all of them anyway , it's just a servant, it's not like he's choosing a wife or something; The king, the queen, two princesses, two prince, all of them.

When they start talking about what I can't hear clearly, I decide to take an advantage of my position  and height to look around, behind me and sideways .

The first thing my eyes capture is the long walls surrounding all the palace compound at a far distance, obviously they are for security. There are knights standing at attention at the far end on my left as if ready for war.

Behind them there are long beautiful mansions which seem endless, ladies and men in uniforms busy walking around, others in and out of the mansions , am guessing they are carrying out their daily duties.

Behind me at a far end there is a beautiful garden of beautiful flowers of different colours, I could see butterflies flying around, there are green tall trees. Portions of green grass around and between them , there are pathways  .

I must say this is the most beautiful scenery I've ever laid my eyes on , am almost unable to control my urge to run to those flowers and roll in them , I stretch my neck and stand on my toes to try and see more on the other side but suddenly there's this freshness in the air around me, like fresh dew of morning mixed with a hint of fresh pine.

My neck turn involuntarily only for my eyes to meet the presence of the crowned prince, my heart skip a beat as I straighten myself looking in front. Then as if I can't hold the urge to look back at him , I look at him again .

°°Blond black hair falling on his neck , briskly thick eye brows which seem to be knitted.. am guessing in frustration or so,, sea rover blue eyes which can draw anyone's eyes in , plump full lips with a natural pink color.. so soft even by just looking at them.. so kissable.. What?! I.. no! I didn't mean that.

..An Aquiline nose which complements his cheekbones so perfectly ,basalt jaw and Spartan shoulders which speak of strength, how is he this strong!? I mean , we're about same age for heavens sake! He's only 24 and am 18 , oh by the way,, I just turned 18 some hours ago .
