Chapter 8 - Marriage.

I found my self in somewhere unfamiliar. I wanted to stand up but something held me back , I was tied down .Fear griped me. Where was I? Who took me captive? Why was I tied down? All sought of question skipped through my mind. I was just a princess with no possessed powers. If i had powers, I would have thought my powers were the cause of the kidnap.

All this thoughts came to an end when a tall hooded man came in with a sword in his hand, probably the one who jacked me earlier. followed by a man dressed in royal clothes and I knew he was royal.

" wow, I didn't know that the princess my brother dared me on was this beautiful." he said and a grin came across his face.

I was unable to talk and do anything. I wanted to scream, attack, ask and do all the things I could think of but something kept me still.

" Don't be afraid little princess, I am crown prince Gordon and I didn't mean to scare you but I hate loosing that was why I went on with my brother's stupidness. " I looked at him and thought of what to say before I finally spoke up.

" What kingdom?. What did your brother put you up to?. Why choose me? When will you....." he cuts in as my question became too much.

" Calm down girl, which one should I answer. " he said and sat on the chair which the hooded man had brought for him.

"What did your brother put you up to?" I said and he sighed before answering..

" I an from the kingdom of Salvador and I and my brothers were looking through a book about the kingdoms and their princess , we saw your picture and your history , then one of my brothers suddenly came up with the idea that....." I interrupted his story.

" that you should get me kidnapped?." I said and felt I figured it right but no it was rubbish.

" don't jump into conclusions, by the way you talk too much." he said and I cursed underneath. He picked up his story.

" One of my brothers dared me to get married to you , and I hated defeat so I accepted. You're beautiful anyway." he said and the word marriage was the last thing I wanted to hear.

" You say what!." I said putting a surprised look on my face.

" I just decided to inform you cause I would soon be sending a marriage letter to your kingdom." he said and with that he stood up and left.

The hooded man took me back to the river side and I was all so confused and went back to the palace immediately and as soon as I got to the palace, a maid told me that my mom wanted to see me and the first thing that came to my mind was about the lime in William's water.

I got to the living room and I could see a smile on mom's face.

" so mom, what do you have fore?." I asked trying not to make it too awkward.

" good news. The kingdom of Salvador just sent a message that their crown prince was asking for your hand in marriage. " She said and it suddenly dawned on me that the prince that took me had already sent the message.

" Mom, did you accept?. " I asked and wanted the answer to be negative.

" Of course, what do you expect." she answered and something suddenly hit my chest like a wild fire. I was still young for all this. I simply nodded and left for the garden.
