(Eve's POV)
"I DON'T UNDERSTAND! WHY DO I HAVE TO MARRY THAT JERK?!?" I say.
"He's been a good family friend since you were a child Eve!" My mom says.
"I DON'T CARE! I DON'T LOVE HIM!" I yell.
"I WILL NOT HAVE MY DAUGHTER DISRESPECT A FAMILY FRIEND! GO BACK TO YOUR ROOM EVE!" My father yells, slamming his fists on the table.
"NO! NOT UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND!" I yell back.
Then, my father slaps me and I fell backwards. Crying, I run to my room.
In my room, I could hear my parents talking.
"You were too harsh on her, Edward." My mother says.
"She must learn, Laura!" My father says.
Then, I hear a knock on my window.
"Hey, it's Adrian." The voice said.
"Wh-what are you doing here Adrian?!?" I say.
"I'm helping you escape, that's what."
"But what about?" I ask.
"He's dead." He says.
"What?" I ask.
"Sheesh, do I really have to spell it out for you? D-E-A-D. Dead." He says.
"How-"
"Don't ask."
Then, Adrian grabs me and goes down the rope.
"Run! Run as far away as you can! This place isn't what you thought it was." He says, gritting his teeth.
Suddenly, a hole in a wall blew up ad revealed my father stabbed with a sword by a hooded person.
"Run! They'll kill you!" He yells.
Without hesitation, I ran.
I ran far away to an odd land.
I walked into a garden, and saw a man, who was probably the same age as I, tending to flowers.
"Um... Excuse me? What is this place?" I ask.
Then, the person spoke with a voice I swore sounded like an angel.
"Château du Versailles." He says.
"My name is Eve, sorry about not introducing myself." I say.
"Bonjour, Mademoiselle Eve. Je m'appelle Shiro."
"English?" I say.
"My name is Shiro." He says.
"Nice to meet you, Shiro." I say.
"Same for you."
