How you fell in Love - Edmund x OC

Chapter One

Arylia was always a kingdom of traditions. Being the Queen, you were obliged to follow them but there were many you adored and looked forward to. Just a few you don't agree with.

You are the younger sister to your brother, High King Alexander, there was always pressure on you.
-----
Your parents always wanted peace. In order to achieve that, they lived in good terms with the immediate neighbouring countries, which included, Frosia, Bourbonin, Narnia and Limen.

To ensure that, every year the royalty of one country visited them, stayed with them for two months or so. Within a month's gap, you visit them. Next year, the country changes.
-----
This tradition was loved by everyone and was practised for years until your parents died in an unfortunate accident.

Not after a moment, Alex's been crowned the High King and you the Queen, you both didn't even look at each other before restarting this tradition.
-----
So, the first country visiting you was due this morning, Narnia. Aslan being a dear friend to your parents and you, you decided to go with them.

High King Peter, Queen Susan, King Edmund and Queen Lucy. You've heard all about them, but meeting them is the first time.

Almost all your neighbouring countries have changed generations and you hoped to be friends with them.

All this rushed to your mind in the morning. Shaking your head, you woke up.

A soft knock was heard, by your maid, Martha.

"His Majesty asks for your presence, your Highness." came the kind voice.

"I'll be there, Martha. Thanks." you quickly reply and get up.

You freshen up and wore clothes that are presentable and walk to the table.

"You're late, Dar.'' Alex smiles.

Dar is what your nickname is, Alex always calls you that like you call him Alex or Al.

"I'm sorry, Al." You smile and reply.
-----
Soon after a little discussion, you decide to take a walk in the gardens while waiting for your guests.

"Ah! Here they are!" Al says as he hears horses.

You smile and walk towards the gates. You were excited as hell.

You see four horses in view and they get down and give them to the stable person at the gate.

Conservative kingdoms prefer ladies bowing so, as much as you hated it, you bowed. But to your surprise, all four bowed right back.

You hid the surprise and smiled at them.

"Welcome to Arylia!" You say with a bright smile.

"Thank you!" Queen Lucy says

"Follow me," Al says, grin not wiping off.

Al and the Kings walk forward talking something, while you wait for the Queens.

"Been here before, Queen Susan?" you ask.

"Just Susan, please." she smiles. "No, never here. Aslan speaks great of Arylia, though"

"That's true! Aslan does speak of you, Adara!" Lucy says.

"Haha, really?" you reply.

You soon reach the doors where Al looks back at you.

"Show the rooms to Edmund and Lucy?" he asks.

"Sure!" you say.

"You shouldn't have bothered," Lucy said.

"Aw, it's my pleasure, Lucy," You say.

You see Martha in the hallway and she quickly bows to you.
