Reina's eyes then skimmed through the outer rim of the dance hall, her eyes landed on a white haired male on the other side of the dance room. "Who is that white haired male Sir Zayne?"

"Ah, guess your parents never told you. Princes from other kingdoms have come here to try to court your elder sisters, they are of age to be courted. But as you can see no one wishes to court them. That male in particular has a reputation for dismissing women or making a fool of them rather loudly. Neither one of your sisters has the guts to go up to him." Zayne stated

Reina looked at the elder male. "What's his name do you know?"

"Crown Prince Sylus." 

"I'm going to go talk with him, if he knows what's good for him he'll be cordial with me." Reina said as she looked at the male once more

"I mean this sincerely-best of luck Princess." Zayne said shaking his head

She went around the ball room past her siblings who were all complaining about her, she made her way to the white haired male who raised an eyebrow at the brunette princess. "Princess."

"You are the only male aside from my idiot siblings who is not on the dance floor. May I inquire as to why?"

"I have no interest in getting to know anyone with a lack of intellect. The females who are left lack the intellect."

"You don't know me, you cannot group me with a bunch of moronic silver spooned women." Reina said placing a hand on her chest where her heart was

He let out a scoff "I heard you speak, but are you sure you have what it takes to do what you say you can?"

Reina didn't back down and stepped closer to the male. "What makes you think that I can't do as I've said. You don't know me. You speak bold for a short stick male who holds a gold spoon over his head like he's some great thing that people should rave about. You aren't special." Reina said seriously

The white haired male let out an amused chuckle "You are a feisty little girl, I may have gotten you wrong after all. Spend the night with me and if I like what I see throughout the night you might end up leaving this kingdom for my own."

"I barely know my family and siblings-I have nothing to cry or miss about this place."

The male held his hand out to her. "May I have this dance Princess Reina Hartman?"

She nodded her head and placed her hand in his as he led her to the dance floor. A lot of people gasped seeing that he had actually accepted being around a female and it was the youngest princess of the kingdom. The white haired prince half expected her to step on his feet but the entire time the two of them danced she never once did. When it was time for the large celebration feast to happen the Crown prince was seated beside her, so he pulled out the chair for her which she thanked him for. 

She sat down with her dress properly under her before he pushed her in. She kept her hands on her lap as she saw across from her was her elder sister Stella who had both of her elbows on the table as she was leaning against it while she talked with the people around her. Reina kept quiet as she just listened to everything around her until the dinner was served out. Once it was she still kept quiet as she had her napkin placed on her lap within her left hand as her right hand she used to pick up the right utensil for her to use. 

The prince watched her every move and was curious about the ways that she was different from her elder female siblings. It was half way through the dinner that the king spoke up. "Reina, my daughter. I have noticed you've never spoken a word-may I ask why are you okay?"

"Father I am well, I have been taught not to speak a word until spoken to. No one around me wishes to speak to me so for that reason alone I do not speak. Though since you ask such a question I must ask...has any of my siblings gone through an etiquette class or have they all but forgotten who and what they are?"

All four of her siblings who sat across from her stiffened hearing her question. The king looked at her confused as the rest of the table stared between the king and his youngest daughter who spoke. The entire table was quiet hearing the youngest princess speak.

"They have in their younger years, pray tell what have they done is wrong?"

"If I may pick at everything father?"

"You may."

"Let's start with my eldest brother-Elias, he is to take your place. His napkin is around his tie not on his lap. He isn't a child anymore that looks barbaric and childish. Not to mention he has both hands on his silverware when he just needs one. Let alone he is slouching and has been talking with his mouth full of food this entire time. It is rather disgusting to watch. Next-Justin. Following suit of Elias. Doing the same thing but worse, he has had his elbows on the table and pointing with his fork and knife. That is rude and disrespectful on many accounts. Next-the supposed it 'ladies' across from me. Stella and Morgana. I never got to know who is who and honestly I don't care to. The one right across from me in the pigtails has been showing off her body like she is a low class woman with no class or stature to her, which is probably why no man wishes to court her. Not to mention her napkin is still on the table instead of her lap. She's using all the wrong silverware for everything she has eaten, she points and talks with food in her mouth and with her fork in her hand. The other woman...Oh goodness me, I've heard her swear like a traveling bandit worse than those who I've encountered getting to the middle section. Not to mention have you seen how she eats. The mess around her plate, the wrong silverware she uses. If you wish to have these for represent our kingdom-I implore you father, get them back into those lessons they are not ready to be seen outside of this kingdom. They will make a mockery of our family name." Reina explained with a sigh

"YOU FUCKING BITCH ASS WHORE! HOW FUCKING DARE YOU!" One of her sisters yelled as she got up angered

"Stella sit down and watch your tone with your sister, I gave her permission to speak her mind so she did. There will be no consequences for what she has said-though it pains me to say that she is more than right. The four of you have been given classes that you have ignored. Your sister has not taken those classes and look at her. She is everything you four are not." The king said seriously
