Chapter 1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"It's a honor to meet you Mr. Williams." I hear someone say from in the distance.
I turn in the direction I hear it coming from, just to see a reporter talking Mr. Williams and praising him for his incredible work.
Stepping fully out of the car I thank the driver holding the door open for me.
Walking down the line of people who are here to see the son. Past the cameras and the reporters who try to get me to talk.
Finally stepping inside the palace. You can see only the most elegant and elite people have been invited.
Seeing the faces I see they all hold fake smiles. I see that all these people have secrets that they don't want to people to know.
Walking up to the bar asking for a water.
"What can I get you?" The bartender asks.
"Water, please." I instantly reply.
A group of men walk up to the bar showing off their expensive shoes and watches to the people of the venue.
"What are these?" Exclaims a young women at a table.
"Calamari, miss." The young man reply's not looking her in the eye.
"What? Calamari? This is not Calamari. I should have you fired for serving me this type of food." she says.
Scoffing to myself, these people here don't even know the definition of not having.
Walking up the table with the young man and women.
"Excuse me, is there a problem here?"
The girl looks up at me and smirks at the boy. That doesn't go unnoticed.
"Actually yes. You see this server here tried to serve me this food."
"Yes, I see. I will send this right back to the kitchen."
With the snap of my finger the boy takes the food away to get another.
Walking away I am stopped by a person.
Turning around I see the same girl beckon me to her table. And doing a horrible job at it.
Walking to her she has the nerve to be snobby with me.
"Yes?"
"What is going to happen to that server?"
"He went to the kitchen and is getting the chef to make you a new order of Calamari."
"That is all?"
"Yes, that is all."
"Didn't you see what he brought me? That food was outrageous."
"Well what do you want us to do with him?"
"I want him fired of course."
Holding my tongue back from saying something that I will regret but happily enjoy saying to her.
"Miss, as you can see around me that there are a lot of people here to see the coronation and firing a server tonight just can't be done."
Rolling her eyes and attempting to dismiss me with a snap of her finger like I did the server she miserably failed.
Still standing there watching her.
"Why are you still here?"
"Miss, was that your way of dismissing me? And most of all copying my movements aren't very original but, what can I say nothing about you says original."
Walking away feeling impressed with myself and earning a few snickers from our fellow bystanders.
"Can everyone please find their seats. The announcements will start very soon."
Going to my table and see I have been given seats with Mr. Williams and his family.
"Ms. Carter, I see you have been able to make it." Mr. Williams says to me.
"Yes, I wouldn't miss this event."
"I see. My secretary said it took a little while to get a response. He said he got a response the night before."
"Well, I didn't know what my plans were for tonight. So I postponed my response till last night."
He said nothing just looked at me and nodded his head and walked away.
Immediately my eyes scan around the people and see guards at every exit and entrance. Were as I didn't see this before.
And it has started...
