Lovette was walking down the Great Hall of her family palace. She was wearing a light green gown with a crème colored ribbon around the waist with it tied in a bow at the back. She had a brown camisole like top under it. Her thick black hair was curled, so it bounced as her crème heels clicked across the marble floor.
“Good morning, sweetheart.” Laine, her mother told her. “Princess Lovette, Shall I make your bed?” Thia, their maid asked her. Lovette nodded. “Yes, could you bring me my gold Tiara as well?” Lovette asked.
“Yes madam, I certainly will.” She said. Thia looked as if she was 12, but she was really 15. Thia smiled as she walked to Lovette’s bedroom. She made the bed and straightened the room up. Then, she careully took the gold Tiara out of it’s case and brought it to Lovette and placed it on her head. Lovette smiled at Thia and then went to fetch her little brother, Ridden.
“Ridden! Wake up!” Lovette said and jerked the covers off of her brother. Thia came in and looked at the two. “Princess Mernaselli! Don’t let the King see you! He hated it when you do my job! Let me do this!” She said in a whisper.
Lovette grumbled. “Let Daddy deal with me.. Go fetch breakfast Thia.” She said in her British-like accent.
Thia smiled and went to get breakfast. She set the dinner table in the Dining room and smiled.
Lovette got Ridden up and then told him to get into his day clothes. She walked downstairs into the foyer and found a man dressed in an army suit. “May I help you?..” She asked him and looked at him confused.
“Yes.. I am looking for the Mernaselli family.” Kaimen, the soldier said.
Lovette smiled at him. “I am Lovette Mernaselli. You may call me Love.” She said with a smiled. “I will fetch my father.” She said and smiled. “Come with me.. Let me show you to his study.” She said and lead him to the observatory, her father’s study.
"Daddy!" Lovette said as she knocked on the door.
'Come in.." Zachary, the king, said. Lovette walked in with Kaimen. "Daddy, This is one of Vanity's soldiers. He wishes to speak with you.." She said.
"No madam.. It is you I wish to speak with.." Kaimen said and bowed in front of her. "I was sent to protect thee." He said and stood up and looked down with her.
Lovette looked up at him. Why was there a need for her to be protected?
