Chapter 1 - The arrival

A pretty damsel dressed in a corporate business attire came walking in through a long hallway. As she approached the exit door the stationed guard gave a bow and flung open the door as she made her way out of the lobby.

She exuded so much elegance and confidence the officials could barely take their eyes off her. She was none other than Skyler Jones; her brown hair was neatly let down and her brown eyes glittered. She looked like a no nonsense business lady.

She walked through the lobby with heels looking all elegant, then she stopped in front of a man...more like the king sitting on the throne, he had the same hair colour as hers."This meeting is dismissed" said the king with dat all the officials stood up and bowed before taking they leave.

" Skyler what a pleasant surprise to see you here" he said smiling. "Good day father" she said bowing her head down then she looked up "why would you be surprised when you called me here" she said with one of her brow raise up. " wow your still the same old Skyler you don't ever change one bit" looking at her and chuckled a little. "Father why do you send for me if it's not important then permit me to leave I have a lot of work to attend to" she said looking at him with no emotions on her face but still he just continued staring at her. "in that case good bye father" just when she was about to leave he said" Skyler you need to get married" only that one word shocked her to her core but she managed to compose herself she then turned "And why the sudden information dad " she said. "Hmph Sky and you know I have ruled this kingdom for many years now and I can't just allow this kingdom to crumble after all the efforts I have put into it and the only way to keep it together is too make an alliance with a kingdom that our last hope and to make that alliance I would have to make you get married to a noble prince from one of the greatest kingdom" as all those words left his mouth she thought she was in a bad dream all she wanted to do was to slap herself to get up from it but it then dawn to her that it was all reality.

Marriage was the last thing she had in her head it was never her plan to get married if possible she wanted to remain a spinster but here was her father saying she was getting married. "I can't dad and I'm not going to do that" she said with anger in heart. "well sorry to say Skyler but you don't have a choice" he said.

"wow so you could do anything just for your kingdom and not even care about me" she looked at him in disgust; I care about you Sky but you have to understand I can't be counted among the weak rulers of Rashkut and whereas you're 20 years almost all other princess in other kingdom have gotten married since the age of seventeen and here you are not even being appreciative for the time and freedom I have given you to move about freely just working on the company and nothing else it's time and I'm not going to listen to you anymore more so get ready for he is arriving this kingdom today towards evening
