I feel empty, and I think I feel water around me. I am drowing ? No. I got executed.
Then, what I am feeling ?
Slowly, I open my eyes. I see a white, with golden details ceiling. I blick one, two and three time my eyes.
I AM ALIVE ? I tried to look around me but I can't, my head is so heavy. And, I realized I was really in cold water.
Suddently, a maid came, I know it because of her clothes. She has brown hair, she looks damn sleepy.
"Uh." She sigh. "I was told that babies can't move by their own when they are on their belly.".
She took me out of the cold water and put me on a furniture.
"You should die."
I open my eyes, she just said I should die?? And, I am a baby ? What happened here ?
Because of the darkness I can't tell the color of her eyes, but I know she's looking at me cruelly.
She sight again as a new maid came in the room.
"What do you think you're doing ?" asked the new maid. She's out of breath, as if she had run.
"I tried to drown her." answer the other maid, the one who took me of the water.
I tilt my head, I don't want to realize that she tried to drown the actual baby. Maybe she did it, and that explain how I end up being here when I'm supposed to be dead. Poor baby. I don't know if it's because I'm a baby now, but I yawn tiredly.
The maid who came push the other and hold me thight in her arms, like she wanted to protect me.
"Sleep my dear Princess, tomorrow will be a great day for us to introduce you at your father, sleep, my dear Alice..." she whisper, her voice disappear in the dark as I fall asleep.
"My dreams are just dreams"
"Say it again"
"My dreams are just dreams"
Who is talking inside my head ? I can't recognize the voices.
"You can do everthing, if you want something tell me, okay ?"
"Dad."
"Yes, Lilian ?"
"Thank you."
"No need, we're family after all."
Ahh, family huh. They're dead. My family is dead because of the Rukkha empire, and I, Lilian von Ebilon got reincarneted somewhere.
I can still hear the call of my big brothers.
I am sorry.
" Princess..."
I'm hearing someone calling for me. I slowly open my eyes. The nany from last night that save me is standing next to my bed. If we can call my bed a real bed.
"It's time to make you ready to meet the Empror." she says, and I can cleary tell she's not excited about that.
Her light golden eyes lose sowly their light as she prepared my dress.
"Everything went well in the past for your sliblings, so it should be okay."
I don't know if she tries to ressure me or herself.
She dress me in a light yellow dress, with white ribbons. Then, she took a miror to show me my reflection. And wouah.
My hair are pink, a dusty pink. I can tell they're wavy but pretty short, I am a child after all. And those eyes, desaturated green. Everyone can fall in love with this girl. That nanny called me Alice, and Alice is so lucky, when she'll grow up.
Lifen, the nanny who saved me from the other, Hannah hold me to my new father. When we arrived, a beautiful young lady, with the same pink hair as me was standing outside of the throne room. When she looks at me and Lifen, her purple eyes widen. It remember me the amethyst.
Lifen bows as she said :
"Your Highness the seventh princess."
Seven ? She's older than me, and I am a princess. I can't remember if Lifen told me which princess I am.
"So, it's her ?" the seventh princess asked, raising an eyebrow. "Whatever."
We enter with her in the throne room. Everything was so weighing. Lifen arms thight against me, she really wants to protect me. I look at her and shift to see the Empror and as I saw him, my wish to be happy in this life disapear.
"Alice Von Rukkha." His voice he's deep and I'm grateful there is no miror here because I can't imagine my face right now.
"Welcome in your family. The thithteen princess of this Empire."
