the darkest royals

•He is who?•

''Are you into women?''

I push him away from me and get up angry immediatly.

How dare he say something like that?

I mean I have nothing againt gay people or lesbians or any sexuality in general.

But me and being into women?

If my dearest lover had heared this.

''I am not into women believe me, I do enjoy the company of men a lot but my priority are my people.

Just to make that clear to you, I will never set a love to someone before the love to my nations, that is nothing I can do as monarch.'' I say this confident and strong because it simply is my belief.

''So do you sugget that I never love you?'' He laughs while saying it.

Oh how I hate people who don't take me serious. But I do want him to love me. If he doesn't, I will never trust him. If he loves me, it could help my nations in the future. His love is nothing I desire as a woman but as Queen and Czarina it is something I do need.

''No, I know that you probably are also not glad about this arranged marriage but i think that for both our sake we should build a friendship and it may bloom into love.''

He also gets up and looks into my eyes, he comes closer and whisper ssomething into my ear ''You are a hopeless romantic aren't you?'' Now a small but visible smile covers my face.

He is right, I am in fact hopeless romantic but I have experienced that most men aren't. I can only pray that he does.

''Well I love reading, especially love stories and poetry. I see a marriage as something for lifetime and as the purest kind of feeling. I would suppose that I am hopeless romantic and that could also be one of the reasons I never dated as much as others. I believe that your soulmate will cross your path one day and that you'll then know what true love is.''

I look him deep into his eyes and I gotta admit that they are gorgeous.

''Do you know who Edgar Allan Poe is?'' He asks quietly and my eyes may have gotten bigger as he asked that.

''Of course I do, i read everthing he wrote.'' From the sound of my soft voice he should know that I enjoy talking about literature. And that I am glad to know that he seems to have a little knowledge about poetry.

''Maybe I can show you around in my libary tomorrow?'' Unlike a couple minutes ago his voice sound calm and gentle.

''I would love to Theodor.'' His expression seems to reflect mine as he smiles widely as I do.

He gets even closer with his face and this time I know what he is going to do but this time I won't stop him.

He kisses me gentle and he seems a little surprise that I let him kiss me.

I press my lips a little harder against his and as soon as I do so, he wraps his strong arms around my waist.

I end our kiss and look him deep into his ocean eyes.

''I think I should go to bed now.'' I say calmly while looking on his lips again.

I can see a little bit of disappointment in his eyes and on his face but the he finally say ''Then have sweet dreams Carla.'' He lets go of my waist and kisses my hand.

''So do you Theodor.'' I quickly go into my room and sleep.

I know that If I had stayed longer, he would have thought that I am easy to get and that is a huge lie.

As I feel sun shine on my face I hear a male voice saying ''My lady come on wake up.'' As I open my eyes and see that Sebastian pours tea into a mug.

''Sebastian!''I sit up and smile. He was still there. At least something that will never change.

''He didn't held his promise and put me into a room far away from you.''He tells me something I already know while giving me the mug.

''I know, I will explain my plan to you and Ciel later this day.'' I say calmly while moving around the spoon in the mug.

''Earl Grey with a little bit of milk just like in England.'' He expains smilingly as I sip the well known tea.

''When exactly will Ciel arrive?'' He laughs a little because my voice still sounds so sleepy.

''In half an hour.''

''What!? But I am not dressed yet and my hair might look like a birds nest!''I say shoked while getting up and runing in front of the mirror.

''Don't worry, i got you princess.'' He says proudly. And after half a hour of getting me into a corset and into a light blue dress with flowers which doesn't even cover my knees, brushing my hair and gettingj ewellery on me, we rush down to the gates of the palace.

And out of experience I am fast in heels, in fact I should get a award for this. While running through the hallways of this swedish palace at least 7 servants had to dodge away from me and Sebastian.

Yes I am going to be your queen.
I just smile as I think this and run down the stairs like a little child.

Before Sebastian and I arrive at the gates, I can find my guest at the entrance of the palace.

There in front of me stands a 15 year old boy who is a little taller than me. He has the same hair colour as me and even greener eyes than I do.

''Ciel!'' I immediately rush into his arms which he had opened the second he saw me. We share a long hug and he gives me a kiss on the forehead.

''I missed you my dearest princess.'' He says with a beautifully calm voice.

''I missed you too, my dearest twin brother.''
