Broken Rose

Chapter 1

I sit on my little stool near the window looking at two birds in a tree. One sitting in a nest which i guess is the mother and the other bird is perching on a branch right above the egg and mother. Who I guess is the father. I envied them. The two birds found love while i am still stuck in this estate waiting for my prince charming to find me. But that is a waste of a dream. Now i am waiting for my suitors to come so that I may pick one to be my husband.

Oh. Wait. How rude of me. My name is Meloney Folk. Daughter of Frank and Debbie Folk. We are a Business family with a big wealth. My hobbies are reading having a walk in the garden and dreaming about my true love.

We live in a huge estate on top of a hill that creates a shadow over the small town below us. Here is a story about me and what will happen to me.

"Mel, Come down here. The men are here for you;" yelled my mother from downstairs."Okay. I'll be right down." "Alright but don't run. Ladies do not run." Man, my mom can be so. So. Man i can't even think of a word for her. I took one final look in my mirror to see if my hair and makeup is okay. Once i'm done fixing me up i grab my jacket in case i want to go outside. I race down the halls even though mother said not to but i was in a hurry. When I turned around a sharp corner i felt like I hit a wall. I fell back onto my butt.

"Are you okay miss?" Strange i never knew walls could talk. I looked up expecting a talking wall But instead I found the most drop gorgeous guy on the planet. He had hazel eyes and dark brown hair. He had a white long sleeve and back pants with dirt on over him. I guess I was staring at him for too long because their was a smirk growing on his face. Great he is that kind of man. He put his hand out for me to grab but i smacked his hand away and rolled my eyes. I don't need to talk or even look at a guy who thinks that they can just smirk at a girl who is on the floor because of him. As i stood up he walked in a circle around examining my body. "Oh good. There's no tears in your dress. I would hate to see a pretty lady with a torn dress." That just made me blush. "And it looks like the pretty lady can get embarrassed to." And with that he smirked. Now that made me mad. "Look here you." "It's Dimitri. Dimitri Morgan." "Okay listen here Dimitri Morgan. You were the one you got into my way. Now you should apologize for what you have done. What would have happened if I fell and broke a bone in my body. You would never be able to pay off that bill." He stood up even more straighter so it looked like he was gonna hit the ceiling. "Look here, girl. I was just minding my own business when you come running down the hallway like a madman. You ran into me. So unless you want me to tell the king about your incident you should back into the kitchen and make me something to eat." I was shocked. Just shocked. I can't believe that he thinks that I am a servant. I guess I was so shocked that i didn't see him leave my sights. I can't believe someone thought I was a servant. I started to walk again but a slow sluggish pace. By the time I went downstairs to see my mother. "Good lord what took you forever. The men are already here. They had to wait for you.... What's wrong sweetie? You don't look so good. Are you feeling okay?" I looked up to her with tears on the brink of coming out. "Mom do I look like a servant?" Mom just looked at me so shocked. "Honey song, You look like a princess you are. Now we have to find your future husband." She kept talking and pulling me into the room where she put all the men. As soon as I opened the door and looked all the men. I stopped at one man and was shocked. Why him. Why of all people does he have to be here. It was the man who bumped into me. I'm guessing he say me to cause he looked mortified when he saw me. And I may or may not have grinned cause now he knows that I am a princess and I so am never gonna pick him. I walk around straighten my back holding my head up high. Trying to hide a smile behind my face. As I finish looking at all the men's faces and appearances I walk back to my mother and turn towards the men. "For as you know. This is my daughter Melody Folk. And she is her today to search for her new husband. The one to win her heart will be her new husband. Please try to behave Mel." She looked directly towards me when she said my name. "I will mother." I put on the biggest fake smile I can put on without hurting my teeth.
