Once Upon a Time

★°•☆Chapter two☆•°★

☯~When the people of the Other World were too desperate during the Great War with the dark ones, they started imaging a different reality- one that was peaceful and joyful.~ ☯

My grandma is the high queen of the Kingdom of Snow and Ice. She's my mom's mother. My mom left her kingdom when she married my father from the Cloud Kingdom. 

My grandma, Dorothea van Clifton is such a powerful woman that everyone is afraid and gives her full respect. She can control my mom with just a word, even that my mother is a queen herself. I realize that the reason my grandma wasn't at today's council is because my mother is afraid of her reaction. 

I have to go to her kingdom and ask her to stop this marriage. She'll stop it, I know she will. 

''What will your grandma do?'' Alora asks.
''She'll force my mother to stop this marriage the same way my mother is forcing me to mariage.'' I say and open my pink luggage in a cloud form. I put some dresses and shoes in it, just in case I need them. 

''Uh... how will you go to your grandma's palace my princess?" Felicity asks, ''Last time I checked your grandma lives days away and you can't leave the castle without your mother's permission.'' she says with a polite smile.

''Yeah, there is that too.'' I sigh, my shoulder's dropping. How am I supposed to get out of this palace? And mostly the most, how am I going to go to another whole kingdom?

I sit on top of my luggage as I set it on the floor and hold my head between my hands, my blonde hair falling like a waterfall around me.

''Don't worry, we'll figure it out.'' Alora says putting a hand on my shoulder.
''How?" I glance at her.

''The two kingdoms leave tomorrow, right?" Isa asks and we nod. ''Why don't you leave with them? Camouflage in the carriages and steal one of the ponies to go to the Snow and Ice kingdom.'' she shrugs.

My eyes widen and I get up in surprise. ''Isa, you're a genius! This is an amazing plan.'' I say, my smile wide. 

''Okay, so we'll do it?" Alora asks and I nod in excitement.
''I have to make things ready then.'' Felicity says, disappearing in the closet. 

Is my first time leaving the castle without my mom's permission, this is going to be huge.

A knock comes on my door, and I frown as it wakes me up. I look at the time with sleepy eyes, it says it's five clouds in the morning. Oh, for the dark clouds, what do they want so early?

I sit on my bed, fix my crumbled nightgown and hair and say, ''You may come in.''

The door opens and Aurelius walks in. I narrow my eyes at him, ''What are you doing here?" 
''I wanted to see my future wife one last time before our weeding.'' he smirks.

''I'm not marrying you, Aurelius.'' I say.
''We'll see about that.'' he says, blowing at his hair who are standing in his eyes, making them fly away. 

The clouds will freeze over and fall from the sky if I allow this marriage to happen.

''Get out of my room please.'' I say with a fake smile. He narrows his eyes at me and leans at the bed's board. 
''Wait until I marry you Evangeline and this attitude of your will be gone. Only your gratitude and good manners toward me will be left.'' he threats and I gulp. 

He smirks and turns his heals to walk out.

Wait, he said he wanted to see me one last time before marriage, does that mean that he-
''Are you leaving the kingdom now?" I ask and he turns at me eyebrow raised.
