AMMELIAS POV

"May I have this dance?" Caspian asked while making a little bow and putting his hand out.

Is it just me or do I think this is unusual. In my past life, boys who are at age 7 doesnt usually act like this, they usually throw tantrums if they cant buy their favorite car toy or if they cant go out and play. They are cute but they are little devils which makes them not cute. If you get me. But this 7-year old boy has too much charisma and his aura screams Im a freakin prince. You should be honored that I bothered asking you to dance. Which makes me want to say I didnt ask for this.

I sigh in sadness and annoyance thinking of my fate. Which didnt go unnoticed by the prince in front of me which made me replace it with a smile.

I hope that I wouldnt have to have contact with any of the capture target so that I wont feel burdened but here I am, going to have a freaking dance.

Soooo should I act bitchy? Nah, I might make my death come nearer. Should I act like the sweet, cuddly heroine? Nah, she shows too much weakness, I hate looking weak even though I am kinda weak. If I act like myself, I will look like an idiot. I, too have my pride and dignity to keep. I guess I should just look at the sweets at the corner. Which reminded me, Luisa also made my dress a little pocket to keep my chocolates. Ah, food really do save the day.

"We shall." I replied and took his hand on mine. He then, guided us to the dance floor.

I just kept looking at the candies and chocolates while we dance. The prince amused eyes on me was unnoticed when he realized where I have been looking at when I was dancing with a prince.

I could see several kinds of chocolates. I could see white chocolates, normal chocolates and.. oohh.. dark chocolates are my favorite. There were also chocolates with peanuts but I was not a big fan of it. And there were a lot of candies I.

"Melia. Lady Ammelia." Caspian called me through my day dreaming.

Oh.. I apologize Your Highness but I didnt quite catch that. I answered surprised, I tried to calm myself and not make a bigger fool out of me. Gosh I ignored the prince, the freakin prince. Ignoring people is considered bitchy right? Right? I might get killed on the spot for making treason! Wait, is this considered treason? I mean, people on televisions usually kill the people who is talking to them without permission right? So what more if they ignored the prince.

"You are drooling." The prince chuckled, pointing at the left side of his lips.

I might get killed by this

'Wait. What?! I am drooling! Id rather die of embarrassment now.'

I flushed super bright red and reached out to my hanky which was in my pocket and wiped the so said drool right away and placed the hanky back in my pocket.

"I. Uhh.." I stuttered, not knowing what to say. Please kill me now.

He chuckled, I did not know My Lady was that hungry.

"I.. I apologize my prince for showing such a disgraceful display." I said, calming myself and trying to move on, on what just happened.

"Caspian."

"Pardon?"

"Call me Caspian. Father told me that I will get engaged to you soon." He answered while bowing to kiss my hand and left me there panicking and confused on what just happened.

'Is he mental? How does he think a drooling lady is worthy to call his name?'

Well, I must make the most of it before he finally gets disgusted of me but he didn't seem as cold as cousin Mia had said.

Now, lets get going to those chocolates!

CASPIANS POV

'The main family who was the reason for this ball has not arrived yet. They are 5 minutes late.'

As I was thinking about that, the doors opened revealing Duke Anderson and his son, they just stood down the stairs after entering which was weird since they were supposed to greet us.

After a few minutes, the doors opened again revealing one of the most dashing girls in the kingdom making all the guests quiet down and stare at her with wide eyes while some gasp and covers their mouth.

Her white dress and white flower crown makes her blue eyes and hair look clearer. Her silver hair above her head looks like a halo which made her shine more.

She was gracefully going down the stairs but I could see that she was nervous since she doesnt look at the people in their eyes. When she smiled down her father and brother, everyone held their breath.

"Hoo.." I heard father say.

"Is this brothers fiancée?" My brother, Amir asked.

"So this girl will become my sons fiancée." Mother said while judging her. "I guess she will do for now."

"You are too harsh my dear."

"I just want her to be able to handle the people of the high society. Womens fight is very different from you boys. I want my sons fiancée to be able to handle that especially if they were to be queen."

"Boy? I am a man." My idiotic father pouted at mother.

I swear in our family, mother is the king while father is the servant.

But I guess you are right. I hope her gorgeous face is not for nought.

Father has always been curious what Uncle Xaviers daughter looked like since he was always secretive when it comes to her.

I do admire Uncle Xavier since he was an intelligent man, but once her daughter is in the picture, its like all his intelligence are thrown out.

"Greetings their Majesties of the Imperial Palace and His Imperial Highnesses." The family greeted.

"Rise." I hear father order.

People were still staring at the girl while some started talking about her.

When father requested that I should dance with her, I was quite excited. I wondered what kind of lady she is but what Uncle Xavier said back almost made me chuckle and I noticed the girls heated gaze to her father.

When we were finally able to dance I thought she would be focused on me but it seems like her attention is elsewhere so I followed her line of sight and chuckled quietly when I saw it was the sweets table.

I almost panicked he dance was starting to end yet I did not have a chance yet to hear her voice.

"Lady Ammelia, Lady Ammelia, Lady Ammelia." It took me three calls to finally snap her out of her day dreaming.

"Oh.. I apologize Your Highness, I didnt quite catch that." She said a looking a little flustered.

I didnt know what to say next so I said the next thing in my mind.

'Sweets... food... hungry... mouth... drool...?'

"You are drooling." I almost smacked myself and I chuckled inwardly at my idiotic attempt to create a conversation with her.

"I.. Uhh.." She said getting all flustered.

She is adorable, and she isnt the type to force herself to me. She also doesnt seem to care about me seeing she was too focused on the sweets so I have no problem. The only thing left is what my parents want. Someone who can handle these snobby high class nobles.

I ordered her to call my name. there is nothing wrong to become closely acquaintance first with my fiancée.

After kissing her hand, I showed a satisfied smirk to father showing that I have now problem with her yet.

Walking towards my friends, Lukas and Anthony, I looked back and chuckled when I saw her already eating sweets at the corner.

When I faced my friends again, I noticed Anthony giving me death glares and Lukas laughing at us.
