"Its the best day in Racalyn, as Princess Minnie, who is also known as the Princess Of All, is back into the golden gates of the kingdom, after her curse was broken." Everyone applauded the beautiful princess.
I sat on the throne provided for me, watching everything going on. There were offerings given to the maiden who brought Princess Minnie back. I turned my head sideways and I saw Prince Reagan beside me.
"I can see you're enjoying the event." He smirked. I didn't give him a reply.
Shockingly, a courtier came forward.
"I'm sorry, Princess Rose. Get up." I stared at him with a surprised look.
"That's Princess Minnie's throne."
"Okay." I said with a sigh and gritted teeth.
I backed off, while Princess Minnie sat on it, with a crown and expensive diamond necklace on her neck. Prince Reagan stared at his wife. We made merry, wined and dined till late at night, when the people of Racalyn returned to their homes. After the last bite of chicken, I went to my bedroom. The first thing i saw was Princess Minnie - eating the fruits I'd placed there!
"Princess Minnie..I'm sorry but this is not your place." I tried not to yell.
"Oh. I see. But I'm the Princess of all. I can sleep in any bedroom." She folded her arms.
"This isn't just any bedroom but my matrimonial bedroom." She kept on eating my fruits.
"I'm sure you heard me."
"So, you're gonna kick me out?"
"If i had my way, I would have done that." Prince Ethan entered the room in his tuxedo. Some maids followed him.
"Minnie! What brings you here? You're supposed to be in your bedroom." Ethan smiled.
"I know. But I'm the Princess Of All, remember? And when you were unmarried, we used to share a room, and Reagan has no problem with it." She said.
"Yes Minnie, but now, I have a wife and we need to share a room now. We can have pajama parties later, okay?"
"Later when you're old and feeble? I can't believe you will just throw me out of your life just because you're married now!" Tears welled up in her eyes. Ethan went towards her and held her hands.
"I'm sorry Minnie. I've really hurt you tonight. So, a pajama party, what do you say?" Ethan winked at her.
"Yes! Yes! Yes!" She wrapped her arms around him. I couldn't believe the 'Princess Of All ' could have a babyish attitude.
After we all changed into our nightdresses, they started playing cards, while i sat on the bed reading a book. I was tired and pissed, as their noises gave me headache.
I turned around and noticed the cards they were playing. Each had a name, and a silhouette on it.
Queen Jennie
Queen Eun
Queen Kayla
Queen Jana
Queen Alana
Queen Ahyeon
Sapphira
Sapphire
Xiao Lien
Xiao Chen
Racalyn
And May.
"Can i play those cards too?" I asked them.
"Nope!" Minnie snapped.
"Its a 2-player game!"
"Then can I play after Minnie?'
"Would you please stop being our headache? I'm trying to win this game."Minnie yelled.
"Best of luck then." I retired on the bed, watching the game. Just as i was about closing my eyes, I heard an ear-splitting shriek.
"Yay!! I won! I won! I won!" Minnie jumped around like a little kid.
"Oh." I said.
"Yes Rose! I defeated Ethan! May defeated Racalyn!!!" I gasped on hearing that. I sprang up and started bouncing on the bed.
"YASSS!!! WOOOHOOO!!! MAY DEFEATED RACALYN!! YAY!!!" I flew into Princess Minnie's arms and we hugged tightly. Prince Ethan was looking angry. He grabbed our hands and shut us up.
"Would you guys keep quiet?! Its late in the night and everyone's sleeping!" He whispered and saw my smirk.
"Minnie, go to your room! Go, go, go." He pushed Minnie out.
"Wow. It hurts that you were defeated, isn't it? We should play the same cards and see who sleeps victorious."
"Are you challenging me?"
"That's the questions losers ask." I laughed. He sat on the ground and swiftly shuffled and arranged the cards.
"You're May, I'm Racalyn!" He said. We started the game and I couldn't help but ask myself what the cards were all about. But what I was facing was more worse.
*Thinking about the cards and the portraits*
*Struggling to win the game and show my competitive and problematic nature*
*Staring at his ever cute face and vanilla lips*
You would have named someone like me, a loser. But...
"TA DA!! I WON!" I raised my cards up in jubilation. He slowly opened his mouth, wasn't expecting my win. I leaned forward and slid my tongue inside. He grabbed my waist and deepened the kiss. I felt a mix of emotions as his hands went under my nightgown.
"Stop." I muttered, but it didn't seem like he was ready to stop. So i bit his lip.
"Ouch!" He pushed me.
"What are you doing, Rose? What will you gain from all this?" I gave him a cheap look.
"I need an explanation to all of this!"
"If you ain't stupid, you'll realize that coming to Racalyn this time around, Isn't a joke. And being your wife isn't a mistake. I want to know what the bolt on my lap is all about. Xiao Lien has been telling me stories about May and Racalyn, Queen Eun and Queen Jennie's friendship. I wish to know where Queen Eun is so I can just save their friendship." I told him. He was silent for a minute before groaning.
"Now, is that why you bit my lip? Is that why you're giving in to Reagan? He's only a demon! He'll get you pregnant and murder you." He said in a warning tone.
"I have an idea about his cruel personality. That's why I'm being gentle and applying wisdom."
"You're not applying any wisdom! If you were, you wouldn't have gone to the point of actually kissing him there in your bathtub!"
"If you have a problem with that, then just find me the history, and several other things i need to know." I folded my arms. He sighed and went off to sleep.
If I really wanted something in Racalyn, i needed it forcefully because its not easy.
The next day, i heard Minnie's wreck. The sounds were faraway but i heard it too clearly. I jumped out of bed and ran outside.
The sounds were from Queen Leah's room.
"What do you mean? You can't just dump my son like that! Have you forgotten our rules here in Racalyn? Any woman that decides to just abandon her husband, especially a royal prince should be stoned to death!" Queen Leah was furious.
"Prince Reagan treated me like I was nothing. I wanted to sleep on my matrimonial bed, and he just kicked me off. How horrible is that!" Minnie was crying bitterly.
