As my eyes opened, I sat up quickly, and I gasped, holding my neck as I looked around, my hands trembling as I looked around where I was. I saw a mirror in front of me, and my eyes widened. I looked so much younger. I froze as the realization hit me. I went back to when I was 7 years old. I froze as I looked at myself closely. I had long, bright white hair that flowed down my back like a river full of silk streaming down my back. My eyes were a diamond purple. You could see the intricate designs of a diamond in my eyes. I smiled as if I were alive, knowing that God had given me a second chance at life. I got off my bed and went to my window as the fluffy white clouds covered the bright blue sky slightly. The warm sunlight shone down on my face as the soft wind blew past my face. I heard the door creak, and I quickly looked back and sat on the window frame, looking at the door like a maid walking in. My eyes widened as it was my favorite maid. Her name was Evelyn, and she was always kind to me until she had to retire since she had to move somewhere else far away. That's when everything went downhill really quickly. I got off the window seal and ran towards her, hugging her tightly. She gasped slightly in shock as she looked down at me with a soft smile and hugged me back. I missed her; she was like an older sister to meâone who cares.
"Princess, are you okay?" She asked in a soft, caring voice. I nodded, still hugging her, as she smiled and patted my head softly. I looked up and saw that she was looking down at me as her light, wavy brown hair was put into a short ponytail. As she had hazel eyes and held a soft, caring expression on her face, there was nothing bad about her. I let go and stepped back as she set down a tray of food with milk. My eyes sparkled, as if it were my favorite drink. I sat down at the table and started to eat the sweets and the milk, as they were delicious. I heard the door open, and I froze as it was my little sister Zoe. She smiled at me brightly and hugged me. My body tensed up as she hugged me. I realized how she felt about me and that she was putting up an act in front of people.
"Oh, sis, you're here; how wonderful..." I muttered softly as Zoe smiled, and her eyes were closed. My eyes went dull for a second as I knew exactly what she was thinkingâthat she had to hug a lowly thing like me as all she saw in her mind was me covered in nothing but dirt and trash. As she opened her eyes, I quickly put on a soft smile as she smiled at me with a bright smile that anyone would fall for. I got off the chair and placed my hands on my nightgown with a soft smile as I tilted my head to the side.
"Sis, I must get changed, so if you will, I will politely ask you to leave so I can get changed," I said with a smile as I saw her eyes widen slightly, her eyes lowered, she smiled and nodded, and she walked the other way as I saw how she had an annoyed look on her face as she was only a year younger than me. As I heard the soft click of the door, I let out a heavy sigh as I brushed back my hair. As Evelyn looked at me as she walked towards me, I smiled at her as she smiled back. She patted my head as she walked towards my closet. I sat down and waited as she took out a dress for me to wear. It was a white, flowy dress with small pearls hanging from the side. I smiled as she helped me put it on since today was a really hot day. I yawned as I looked in the mirror and saw how I looked. I smiled as I looked pretty cute, and my hair was done in a fishtail braid. I smiled as I wore a silver headpiece that had purple heart diamonds on it, as they were small pieces. I wore a silver pearl necklace that matched the outfit, as I was now ready for the day.
As I put on a pair of white shoes, I looked at them as they looked pretty. I looked at Evelyn, who was in awe as she bet I thought I looked adorable. I walked out of my room as Evelyn followed behind, as she was my maid. I walked through the empty hallways as I walked past different paintings, and I took a deep breath in the air. It smelled like lilacs. I smiled as I remembered this smell. As my dress flowed behind me, I headed to a room as the guards opened, revealing my fiance Caspin. He was sitting on a red leather couch as his legs were crossed. He had blonde hair and blue eyes, and he was pretty attractive. I walked over as he looked over at me. I sat down as one of the other maids walked in and set down a tea. I grabbed it and took a sip as I placed it softly on the glass table as I looked at him sitting in a good posture.Â
"I heard some people say you were sick. Are you ok, your highness?" he asked as he looked to the side, not even looking at me. This was how it always was. I looked down at my hands as I wore white gloves as I looked back up and smiled as I placed both my hands together and against my cheek as I smiled brightly.
"I'm ok now. I was sick for a few days, but I feel a lot better," I said in a cheerful tone as he looked at me with a weird look. I sighed, lowered my hands, and looked at him. He grabbed his tea and took a sip. As I looked to the side, I stood up and walked away before stopping.
"I asked you to come here today because I am ending the engagement, so you don't need to see me from now on," I said as my back was facing him. He froze, stood up, and clenched his fist tightly as his eyebrows lowered.
"Why, your highness?" he asked in a cold tone. I smiled and turned around to face him, as he just glared at me.
"You like my little sister Zoe, so why should I marry someone who doesn't like me? So I'm helping you by ending this marriage," I blurted, and he froze as he looked to the side, knowing I was right. I smiled and walked away as I held confidants. I had an annoyed expression as this was one phase of my plan to run away. I smiled and headed back to my room as the doors closed behind me. Caspin looked at me as he stood there alone in the room as Zoe walked past me and walked in. I looked at her coldly as she had a smile as she touched Caspin and smiled. What a weirdo.Â
As I entered my room, I laid on my bed and hugged my pillow tightly as I thought about what had happened today. This was only phase one of my plan before I escape this hell of a place. As I lay there, my eyes slowly closed as I drifted off to sleep as I breathed softly. As the hours went by, my eyes opened slowly as I looked around, as it was dark. I yawned as I looked around the room and sat up. The moon was shining brightly in the sky as the stars filled the sky. I got off my bed as I walked towards the window as I sat on the window sill, looking at the stars as they were beautiful. I smiled softly as I leaned my head against the edge and closed my eyes, falling asleep again as I was really tired from today.
Before I knew it was already morning, my eyes fluttered open as I looked around. I looked down and saw that I was on my bed. I raised an eyebrow, as I thought it was just Evelyn who put me on the bed to check if I was okay. I shrugged it off and saw that the morning sun shone through the thin curtains, hitting my face softly. I walked to my window, looked down at the ground, and saw that the whole family was sitting and talking to each other as I held onto the window that was opened. As my eyes went dull, knowing I was never welcomed, I turned around, facing my back towards them, and walked away. Evelyn walked out of my bathroom as she opened the door for me. As I was going to take a bath, I smiled at her as I wrapped a towel around my body and lowered myself into the warm water. As the lilacs were in the water, I smiled and relaxed as I leaned back, tilted my head back, and closed my eyes. After 35 minutes, I got out. As I got ready, I put on a blue and white dress that was slightly short; it went to my knees as I wore blue shoes to match the dress. Blue diamonds were on the dress with pearls, and as I put my hair into a half ponytail, as the rest of my hair flowed down my back, there were small braids that went down my back also. I put on a chain head piece, as it had a blue diamond in the middle and small diamonds around, spaced out perfectly. I smiled at my outfit, as I always liked when it matched my outfits. I looked at Evelyn, and she always thinks I'm pretty when I wear whatever.
as I walked out of the bathroom I walked out of my room and walked down the empty hallways as I made my way outside as the guards opened the doors for me as I walked out I walked down the hard pavement as I had a calm and collected expression plastered on my face I smiled softly as the smell of flowers filled my nose as I walked in the garden butterflies flew past me as I lifted my finger up and one landed on my finger as it was beautiful it had blue wings as as it had a black border around the blue I smiled as I looked at it, it flew off my hand as the wind blew past me I walked to where I heard the laughter and saw that my family was there, as they stopped laughing once they saw me. I saw Mateo's eyes widen as he saw how I looked as the sunlight shone down on me as my bright white hair strands covered my diamond purple eyes as they sparkled under the sunlight as everyone was star struck at how I looked.
"What is it, Pricilla?" Nefia asked with a cold tone as she drank her tea. I smiled as I tilted my head to the side as my father walked beside me. I froze as I looked up at him as he walked past me. I backed up slightly as he was the one who gave the order to kill me once Nefia yelled to hang me. I gulped before stopping and standing my ground as I smiled and bowed in an elegant way as I closed my eyes. He looked back at me as his red, ruby eyes stared down at me.
"Good morning, your majesty," I said in a soft tone as everyone's eyes widened. As I did so, I lifted my head as my eyes opened slowly and my long eyelashes fluttered slightly as the beauty mark under my left eye showed, as it was the exact same spot as my father's. I smiled at him as he glared at me before looking away.
"To you as well," he said as I smiled and everyone laughed among each other as I looked at them all standing there as I felt left out. My father walked past me as I looked up at him as I followed him. I don't know why I did, but I just did. As I walked behind him, he stopped. I bumped into him and fell. He turned around and glared down at me. I held onto my knee as it was red. This is so embarrassing.
"ow..." I muttered as I looked up and froze as he was now crouched down to my level as he looked at me with a calm look as I looked up at him. My eyes widened as I was lifted into the air. My eyes widened in confusion as he put me on his shoulder before walking. This was so uncomfortable. I stayed quiet as he walked to my room and set me down on one of the chairs. Evelyn rushed in, worried about me, as she looked at my knees, which were red. I smiled nervously as she started to apply oniment to my knees. She had a worried look on her face as I looked up and saw my father looking at me with his arms crossed. He turned around and walked away as I saw his broad shoulders and his jet black hair. My dad was very attractive, and I guess that's why people always want to get with him. He left as the door clicked, and my knees were badged.
I stood up as it wasn't that bad and smiled as I heard the door open it was jinx my little brother ran in and hugged me I smiled and hugged him back he was the same age just I was born before him. he looked at me as he had light blue hair and ruby red eyes as he had both characteristics like nefia and father. I smiled as I pat his head as he was taller than me but the same age as me. I sat down as I took a sip of tea as he ate the snacks that Evelyn got for us.
"What brings my little brother here?" I asked as I looked at him and raised an eyebrow slightly. He smiled before it faded slightly, as he had a similar chain-head piece as me. I looked at his outfit and smiled as it matched mine, as he wore a blue and white suit that had small diamonds and a small pendant that was the symbol of the Tysuige family. I smiled and took a sip of my tea.
"What's on your mind, brother?" I asked as I took a small sip.
"It's hard since my mother keeps forcing me to wear stuff like you, which I don't get. If she hates you so much, then does that mean she hates me to the point that she is matching my clothes with yours? I don't get how she is even finding out what you wear," he said in a frustrated tone. I lowered my cup as my eyes widened. I looked to the side and saw Evelyn as she was cleaning one of the coffee tables as my hands trembled. I shook my head and looked back at him.
"Some maids come in and out of here. Sometimes I leave my outfit for tomorrow out on my couch, so maybe that is it," I said with a smile, knowing damn well it was a lie. I smiled at him as he nodded with a sad look. I stood up and held my hand out to him as I smiled at him as he looked up at me.
"Let's go have fun and get away from here. How does that sound?" I blurted out as his eyes widened as he looked at me. His eyes sparkled brightly as I smiled down at him, showing my teeth as he grabbed my hand. I grabbed a black cloak for us both as I put it on for him as I held his hand and rushed out of the palace. This will cheer him up.
