Damian
"Marry me... you get to add the kingdom to your territory, but I rule it ending the war and making me queen."
What the hell is happening, this short stack princess is actually bargaining with me and this might actually work. I am definitely kicking myself in the ass for even thinking about agreeing with this idiotic idea. Before I can think through the proposal thoroughly I stupidly respond.
"If that is what you want Princess, we have a deal, but I promise you I'll make your life hell if you ever make me look bad."
I have my notaries write up an agreement and send her back to her kingdom with it so she can speak to her father about this idiotic idea.
I watch as she walks back to her carriage and I can't help but wonder what this sham of a marriage is going to lead to.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What exactly am I getting myself into with this girl. I have plenty of girls throwing themselves at me, but not once has someone looked at me with such defiance and determination. Those beautiful haunting blue eyes have been the reason for my sleepless nights lately. Every time I close my eyes I see them and no matter how many women I use to distract myself I am always seeing those eyes staring back at me.
That damn princess.

Amabella
It has been a few days since the meeting. News has already gone out about the wedding and the end of the century long war. Surprisingly my father agreed to the marriage, he's probably praying to get better so he can get his hands on Damian's kingdom. Leave it to my father to use his only child as a pawn to get what he wants and not what is best for his own daughter or the kingdom.
Thinking of this reminds me more of Greg, he knew of my father's corrupt ways and no longer wanted to work for him. He only stayed because of me, maybe he would still be alive right now if he had never met me.
I stand here looking at my reflection while I am being fitted for the wedding dress that bastard of a king sent me. I don't even get a choice on the dress I get to wear. I always dreamt of my wedding day, I would wear my mother's wedding gown and I would marry the man I loved and not some heartless king, but this is the only way to end this horrible war that has killed so many and even led to the death of my love. If it wasn't for the war I would be in a different dress and I would have an actual smile on my face with tears of joy streaming down my face, but that will forever be a fairytale now that I have put myself in this situation.
"Your highness." The seamstress, Damian sent, said snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Yes, I am sorry I seem to be in my own little world today." I say with a humorless laugh.
"I was just asking if you would like it tightened anywhere else or if this fits nicely?"
"Oh," I look at myself in the mirror again and realize the dress is too tight " actually can you loosen it a bit, it seems to flashy for a wedding."
The look of shock on her face surprises me.
"Is something wrong?" I question after a few seconds of seeing how surprised she is.
"Of course not your highness, it is just that normally the woman the king sends me to want the dress extremely tight and showing way to much. They are also incredibly rude, I guess I just thought you might be like that." She says without much thought.
I let out a small chuckle. " I like you Miss Rose you are refreshingly honest."
"I-I"m so sorry I didn't mean to say that out loud that was very rude of me please forgive me your highness." She begs.
I just laugh and smile. "It is all right, and please call me Bella, we are friends now. I enjoy your company and I am going to need someone to talk to after I marry King Damian. Now please tell me more about the poor women that have thrown themselves at my future husband, they seem interesting."
We spend the next few hours laughing and enjoying each others company rather than getting much work done on the dress.
