Anthony's P.O.V.
After Victoria leaves to go do chores and such, I was pestered by a swarm of girls, each one prettier than the next, but none as pretty as Victoria. I already miss her fair skin, sea green eyes, brown wavy hair that reaches past her shoulder bone, and the way she doesn't treat me like a Prince, just as an old friend.
I smile, and treat them all just as kind as the last.
I should have a talk with father later about his promise!
*Flash back*
"Father, do I have to go to the prep school?" I whined.
"Yes, son, it's for the best." My father replied. "You don't just want to stay because of that ugly slave, Victoria, do you?" father asked.
I blush, and look down.
"You're hopeless, son!" Father had exclaimed.
"Just promise that you'll take care of her... No harm should come to Victoria!" I glared at father.
"I promise." Father replied, looking me dead in the eye.
*end of flash back*
The ball is finally over. I march over to father, and embrace him in a firm 'man hug.'
"So, father... I would like to know... did you uphold your promise?" I ask.
My father is holding a wine bottle in one hand, and some 'blue moon' in the other.
"Ask Victoria herself!" Father exclaim merrily, and the woman surrounding father laugh.
I chuckle slightly.
"You know... I did... and she said that you treated her well while I was away... but funny thing!" I laugh a bit, just for the presentation, "She had bruises up her arms! But you know... that couldn't be you!" I pretend to be in deep thought about who could've done it. "You know, I think that we should de-head who ever did this!" I lie.
My father laughs, "I think it was that other servant, John, we should de-head him!" my father exclaims.
I sigh, yawn, then walk away. My father is an idiot most the time... the other half of the time, he is drunk! this is a time where he is drunk.
I'll ask him again when he isn't drunk.
A/N: sorry it was kind of short! XD hope you enjoyed (And don't worry! John is already dead, so they can't de-head him... unless they want to de-head a dead person... that would be weird)
