Chapter 9 - Chapter 8: The Prince

"Good morning my children." My father said looking at us.

"Good morning Father." I replied

"Good morning Dad!" Addison and Jacob said in unison.

"Good morning your majesty." Charlie said.

"Lisa, I would like to introduce you to Prince Luke of the crystal kingdom."

"Good morning Prince Luke." I said to him with an indifferent voice.

"Good morning Princess Lisa." He replied

"I want you to show Prince Luke around the castle before the other Princes get here." My father explained.

"Can we all tag along dad?" Jacob asked looking at my dad, his eyes pleading he says yes.

"That's up to Lisa and Prince Luke." He said diverting the question to the someone else.

"I'm ok with it if Prince Luke is." I said as I turned my head to look at him.

"I was hoping to get some alone time with you Princess, if that's ok with you three, I would be more than happy if you can along next time."

Soon we finished breakfast and the little trio went to the garden to play while I had to show Prince Luke around.

"This is out library." I said while showing him our huge library.

"Do you come here a lot?" He asked me while looking around.

"I do, I love to read and this is one of the only places I can go to escape the stress of being a princess." I replied, while going to sit at a table near by.

"You know my castle has a huge library too, I'm quite found of it." He said coming over to sit with me.

"Why do you want to marry me?" I asked.

He was taken back by my sudden question and I continue to ask "Is it for the riches at our Kingdoms has?" As I finished what I was saying he just laughed at me.

"Why are you laughing?" I asked confusion in my voice.

"Your really cute when your interacting me." He said as he slowly stopped laughing. "But the reason I'm willing to marry you is because it will benefit both of our countries and my first duty is too my country." He explained. I agreed with him that our first duty was to our country. I just nodded my head at what he said.

"Why are you marrying?" He asked as he raised his eyebrow.

"Well like you for my country and so that my younger siblings will hopefully have the chance to marry for love and not an arranged marriage like mine. Even tho I could never get my fathers crown that will go to Jacob." I told him he just nodded in response, taking in what I had just said.

"Your a great older sister." He told me. I smiled warmly at him.

"Shall we go, your highness?" I asked as I began to stand up.

"We shall, my future queen." He said calmly walking to the door with me. As he said that I could feel my face heat up.
