Makayla's P.O.V
It has been two weeks since Damian agreed to take the throne and today is his big day. He woke up at the crack of dawn to start getting ready. I was able to sleep for another hour or two before a younger woman in a designer skirt and blouse woke me from my peaceful slumber and practically dragged me to a room filled with racks of dresses and shoes, vanity's filled with make up and hair styling tools.
She first shoved me into a door to the right of the room and I discovered it was a bathroom. I quickly showered and shaved. Wrapping my hair in a towel and wrapping another around my body, I step into the room and she hands me a pair of white thongs and a white silk robe. I hesitate for a moment before slipping them both on. The royal family is to wear white, I am now apart of that family. I'm sure Damian will be in black like usual
I was then pushed into a chair and my towel was pulled off my head and she quickly got to work blow drying my hair. Next she took out a curling iron and curled my long hair to perfection with the front pieces pinned to the back of my head and my little side hairs are neatly curled. She begins to take out bags and boxes of make up "Uh.. Can we go light on the make up?" I ask quietly and she smiles at me
"Ah, you do speak" She mocks "Oh course we can, you have a natural beauty that should be shown off. And by the way Lily has been woken up and is in the next room getting ready too. The prince is being looked after by the current queen" She informs me and I smile
"Thank you..." I draw it out as I realize I was never told a name
"I'm sorry Luna, I'm Renee. I have worked with the royal family for the last eight years" She explains "And your welcome" She gets back to work putting a light coat of foundation on my face and picking up a pallet of eye shadows "I'm thinking gold... Do you prefer gold or silver?" She asks and I don't know what to say because I don't know what looks better on me, seeing as I don't wear this stuff
"You do what you feel looks good. I don't know because I've never been a fan of make up" She smiles and says something about me not needing it before instructing me to close my eyes and gets to work. When she's finished I finally get to look in the mirror and I love the way she has done it
I smile at her and thank her as I tell her how beautiful it looks "It helps that the canvas was already beautiful" She walks over to the racks of dresses and begins to look through them all "Damian requested a white dress but I'm thinking red... Maybe white and red if I can find one" I get an uneasy feeling in my stomach. Should I really be wearing white
"Can we try to stay away from all white?" I ask and she gives me a questioning look and I don't know whether to explain or not "I just don't know if it would be appropriate" I say and she rolls her eyes
"Damian said you might have doubts but to ignore them. You are going to be queen by his side Makayla. You should be dressed in white and so should Lily and the prince" She walks to me "Now lets get you all dolled up so that Damian gets a sneak peek at your wedding day" She says and winks "I already started shopping for certain things when they told me about the engagement. I'll have to take you shopping for the dress and maybe some lingerie" I blush at her words and she laughs "Now for that dress"
After I have the dress on she hands me a pair of white pumps and I slip them on before standing up and looking in the mirror "Oh my god" I whisper. I have never looked better, the dress hugged my body in all the right places and showed off my curves. The pumps made me look so much taller and the way my hair fell pulled everything together. She sits me down and takes my nails doing fake gel nails. There is a knock at the door "Come in" I say and Lucy walks in with Lily
"I've been looking everywhere for you. Lily started having a tantrum, she said she wanted you" She says and Lily runs to me wrapping her arms around my waist "I don't know what happened" She adds
"What's wrong Lily?" I ask and she shakes as a sob runs through her body "Lily?" I ask again
"Sh-she's here" She cries "She found me" I look at Lucy in confusion "The lady that took me away" I take a hand from Renee and gently rub Lily's back
"What are you talking about Lily?" I ask with one thought running through my mind and hoping that I'm wrong but I don't think I am
"When you made me go with the neighbors and the bad things caught us" She chokes on some of her words and my heart sinks "The lady that took me and made me go with Callie.. She's here!" She yells the last part waving her arms around and I stand up pulling my hand from Renee making her get white polish on my fingers
"Why the hell is someone that sells humans here?!" I raise my voice looking around at Renee and Lucy as they both look at each other in panic "Where the fuck is Damian?" Both of them are sharing glances of worry "I want to see Damian now before I stab someone with a damn heel" I say kicking the shoes off and starting for the door
