Here you go!

After like half an hour we arrived in front of a huge, wonderful and fancy castle. It looked wonderful. 'So he lives here' I thought to myself getting out of the car as the driver reached the trunk to hand me my bag. I took it from him thanking him. My father than hugged me tight as he cried into my shoulder. I hugged him back for the last time. It must be very hard for him too since he never cried before. I told him I loved him and told him to take care of my mother and brothers and himself as he got back in the car. I waved him a goodbye as a tear escaped my eye. I whipped it as the car disappeared through the night's darkness.

I took a deep breath as I walked towards the huge gate of the enormous garden of the castle. Suddenly some bodyguards with black suits and glasses that were protecting the castle stopped me and I asked me what I wanted.

"Tell the king Vincent Johnson's daughter is here" I said simply.

As I did the gate flung open. As a tall man figure appeared through the darkness. Automatically the bodyguards stepped aside looking at the ground.

"I knew you arrived, I know everything." Said the man starting to walk towards me. As he came slowly closer I looked at him. He had large teal eyes and jet black hair. He was one of the most handsome men I ever saw. But what a self-centered person! Like how on earth does he say that he knows everything?! Anyway.

"What's your name princess?" he asked checking me out.

I blushed and said looking at the floor a bit embarrassed as he was checking my body out "I am Courtney Rose Johnson your majesty."

"You can call me Duncan" he said smirking. "And by the way happy birthday" he finished.

'Happy birthday!' I thought to myself with rage. 'It's the worst birthday I had because of him and he says happy birthday after taking me away of my family?!'

'Courtney calm yourself down! And don't say anything!' I said to myself.

"I see you brought some bag with you! You didn't have to. You will have a dresser full of fancy clothes and I will tell someone to put you more dresses because as it seems dresses look good on you he said looking at my body in my pink dress again.

"Thank you"

"You are very welcome princess!" Why the hell does he call me princess!? But before I could comment I saw him snap his fingers. Quickly a bodyguard came close to us and took my bad.

"Come in" Duncan said putting his hand on my lower back what made me uncomfortable as we walked in the beautiful garden that surrounded his castle. As he was that close to me I could smell his perfume. I loved the smell it was unique and hypnotic. I immediately forgot about his perfume as I heard the gate close after us as I gulped. When I did he immediately looked at me and said: "What is it?" He heard me! I assumed. "I am fine just a bit nervous!" I said as he draw a pleased expression on his face.

As we entered the castle I was speechless. It was huge! Even bigger than our castle. My family is very rich but his must be beyond rich! Even the smallest thing here was very expensive. The huge living room we entered had two stairs; one on the right and one on the left. Everything was breathtaking here. I was taken out of my thoughts by Duncan's voice: "You seem to like the place, don't you?"

"Yes. You've got a beautiful castle." He just chuckled and pursued crossing his arms. "This is Veronica." He said as a blond young women with brown eyes came to us dressed as a maid. She will be at your personal service as well as Emily." He said as I looked at Emily who was standing behind her colleague. She had light green eyes and orange hair. She was young too. "They both will be at your service and whenever you need anything you can ask them and now they will guide you to your room and when you are done unpacking you stuffs eat something and let them guide you to my room I need to talk to you." I nodded gulping as I saw Emily carrying my bag.
