(Lina)
I sat on the edge of my bed, my hands resting gently on my growing belly. The soft flutters I felt brought a quiet joy, reminding me of the little life growing inside me. It was moments like these that filled me with hope for the future, even with all the planning and decisions.
This was an important time for me and Kieran. We were planning our wedding, something that I didn't know was going to happen so soon.
As the royal guard, Kieran took his duties seriously, not only protecting me, but standing as a symbol of loyalty and strength. The people of Rivendale loved him, just as they had embraced me as their princess.
The people's trust in me had not come easily. I had worked hard to prove myself, to show them I could be the leader they needed. They now stood by me, proud of the courage I had shown during difficult times.
