Hugo's P.O.V. : 

It didn't feel right, shutting Sofia out, but I couldn't help but put my anger out on her. I chased her foot prints she left behind on the path.

"Sofia, wait." I called out as she turned around to face me, "Wanna come to my place? To study." 

"Study for what?" She asked, crossing her arms.

"The test tomorrow." 

A moment of realisation appeared on Sofia's face as she replied, "Sure." 

They strolled together, me in front while Sofia followed y footsteps as we came across a dark blue carriage with an old man holding the reins of the horses. I took a seat opposite of Sofia then the carriage rode off into an awkward ride.

"We're here your majesties." said the old man as we soon came to a stop, landing close to the castles stables.  

"Let's go." I suggested, getting out of the carriage and giving a hand to Sofia. 

I opened up the doors to lead into the corridor of the castle, where Sofia seemed astonished. 

"I never knew your castle looked like this."

Sofia's P.O.V. : 

I said those 7 words which somehow gained attention.

"Have you seriously never been to my castle before???" Hugo questioned, turning around to face me with his arms crossed.

"I have visited you a while back, but I only saw the outside of your castle..."

The silence grew between us, but then suddenly...

"Hugo, you're home!!! And..... who's this??" A strange voice echoed from the flight of stairs above me.

"Olivia, what're you doing here.." Muttered Hugo as the same girl cringed onto his arms. 

"H-hi there.." I said, trying to start a conversation, "I'm princess Sofia of Enchancia, who might you be?"

"Olivia, princess Olivia of Duskia." She replied, reaching her hand out for me to shake. 

I shook her hand then faced Hugo with an expression that displayed what I was feeling, which was "Who the heck is this". 

"Are you a friend of Hugo's?" I asked with a curious tone.

"No, I'm his fiancé." She answered with a gigantic smile plastered on her face, where as I? I was confused, fiancé? Really, he had a fiancé and never told me... 

"Olivia, can you wait with Axel, tell him I sent you and Sofia's over, please?" 

"Sure, but don't forget me!" She replied, followed by a wink as she left the room.

I waited to say something until Olivia left Hugo and I to talk. 

"Seriously Hugo, your fiancé? Anything else I need to know?!"

"Sofia- let me explain..." 

Those were the last words he said, well, before I stormed out of the castle, not wanting to see his face. I don't know why, maybe because he's a good friend and didn't tell me...? All I knew was that I couldn't face Hugo, at least not at that moment, I just had to get out of there. 

Axel's P.O.V. :

Knocks came from my door as I answered with a "Come in." 

"Hey prince Axel, Hugo sent me here wanting me to tell you he sent me over and this girl named Sofia is over... Whoever she may be."

Oh, I didn't expect this to be happening. So she's going to find out like this? Probably the worst way possible, but I should ket Hugo be.

"Okay, then take a seat."

She sat on the side of my bed, scanning the area until she saw a photo of Hugo and I when we were younger. 

"Does that fascinate you, a photo of baby Hugo?" 

"No.." 

Minutes pasted and Hugo came running in, bursting through the doors. 

"She's gone, isn't she...?" I asked, with my arms crossed as Olivia looked at me with a confused expression. 

"Yeah..."
