"Oh my! Princess Esmeralda your still sleeping?". Lolita asked in surprise as she lifted the curtains in my room.

"You have to get ready for the ball your highness or your mother will have my head for it". She walked into the bathroom and started preparing a warm bath for me.

Yup,here i was lying down thinking of how much my life as a Princess sucked. People may think that being royalty was.....well lemme say,like living in a fairy tale where you'll be treated like Cinderella and have your prince charming,with servants at your beck and call.

All that is total crap,because to me royalty is a pain in the ass. Your life is being dictated by a set of dumb rules of whats and what nots.

Not to mention the part where you get to wear those uncomfortable gowns and shoes with that awful Tiara on my head.

Gosh! i fell like i got thorns on my head anytime i wear them. Well,what can i do about it,am stuck with royalty cause its in my blood thus also making royalty stuck with me.


I am Princess Esmeralda Petrova. The rebellious Princess of the kingdom of Draeganoth. Yup(again),i enjoy being a rebel at least that's fun.

And.........i am a pureblood witch. Now that's where the real fun lies.




********************************
     "I hate attending these balls, i mumbled with my face buried in my pillow. Getting up from my enormous bed i looked at myself in the mirror.

       "Gosh!am a mess" i said with a saggy face. I combed my hair and went to check on my sister in her room. And i know by now she is already all dressed up.


         "Knock,knock" i said while tapping my fingers on Maria's door. If there is one thing i knew about Maria,its that she treasured her privacy,and trust me you don't want to go into her room without knocking, she will freak out. Maria was exactly like my mom cause like her,she sure knows how to act and carry herself like royalty.




      "Come in,its open" she said. I came in and wasn't surprised to see her all dressed up and her maid combing her long wavy blonde hair.



        "Esy!!" she shouted calling me by my nickname, still facing  the mirror. I looked at her with my eyebrows up.


        
       "Don't give me that look,your not dressed up" she said looking at my nightgown.

      
       "Maria i will get dressed up,you know i don't like attending balls,that's why am not in a hurry".




       "Oh no!,tell me you didn't" she said.

       "Didn't what?" i asked puzzled.

       "How can you forget,this isn't just any ball,its my birthday party,what kind of sister are you Esy?" she said almost in tears.



  
         OMG how could i forget today was her birthday party,i really messed up and hurt her feelings.


        "Maria am so sorry,i forgot please forgive me" i pleaded.


        "Don't talk to me, i so hate you right now". Her blue eyes were all wet with tears. Despite the fact that she's such a cry baby(sometimes),Maria is a strong witch, she is a prodigy when it comes to manipulating water her affinity.




        "Alright,I'll make it up to you"

         "No you can't"




         I smiled widely at her. And she gave me that "your acting weird" look.

   
       "What if i told you,i can help you get back together with Adam" i said. Maria had a fight with Adam her boyfriend,and since then she has been so gloomy.




        "You will?" she straightened up now smiling.

        "Yep, sure will"


         "Thank you so much Esy,now I've gladly forgiven you" she said hugging me happily.


         She loved him so much that getting back together with him mattered so much to her,can't say much about Adam though,i kinda don't trust him.



        "You had better go and dress up,Mother won't be happy seeing you like that" she pointed at my nightgown.


       "Yea,your right,I'll be going now" i said leaving her room.


         As i closed the door,turning to see my mom glaring me,really gave me a fright. Revina Petrova my Mother,she is just an epitome of beauty. Those full lips of hers,curvaceous figure,long auburn hair,not to forget her striking scarlet eyes and her commanding presence, these features really made her stand out among all witches of her time. I could swear she looked like a goddess,whenever she manipulated her element fire.


       "Esmeralda Petrova,what on earth do you think your wearing" she said looking at me up and down,eyes widened in shock.

 
          "Ummmm......well.....its kinda...called a nightgown?" i stammered. Whenever she called me by my full name, it meant trouble.


          She sighed and looked at me for sometime. Now her eyes were scaring me,i felt like my hair is gonna be in flames any minute.

     
       "You better be careful young lady,don't spoil my mood its your sister's big day. Now go to your room and get changed" she said.


       With that warning,i went straight to my room to dress up.
