Mismatched

 The cold in Sandringo Castle that day was unimaginable. The castle has been in chaos since the day before, the duchess has been in labor for awhile now and there was no hope. The duke has suggested they moved her to the royal public hospital but his mother advised him against that. “A lot of attention will be on us.” She had told him that night.With a heavy heart, he watched his wife, the duchess go through hell while bringing him the piece of his happiness. It was a painful thing for him to do which made him leave for the private underground bar owned by his friend. He believes he needssomething strong to help him drown in the sorrow of what his wife is going through. “What are you doing here?” His friend asked the moment he saw him entering the bar.Unlike the duke, his friend is an American who came to the United Kingdom to pursue his dreams of becoming a successful business man, he knew he came to the right as he became a frie

The aroma of freshly baked croissant woke Alice from her nab. After she had finished reading the letter, she decided it was best for her to take a nap and get her mind off unnecessary matters. She took a peek at the wall clock above her and realized that she had actually lost count of the time.  It was already past dinner, and according to her assumption, desert should be served at that particular time. She wondered why her grandmother is yet to send for her when on a normal, she would have blast Alice’s head with reasons why she should never miss any of the food gathering, even if she is alone.  Alice made her way to the adjoined bathroom in her room and cleaned her face. She then used a clean white towel to dab on the face before she changed into a pair of t-shirt and a mummy jeans before she headed for the dining area. The house was awfully silent unlike every other day that the first t

The sun shone brightly into the sky. A black silhouette stood out in the balcony, she was wearing a flimsy nightwear which had tightened most of her body.  She slurps away her wine which was poured into the drinking flute by the maids. A lot was going through her mind at the moment. She has a lot to deal with, for example making sure one of the princes which she might end up choosing when she sees them doesn’t fall in love with someone else. Then she is yet to receive the invitation card for the welcoming party for Prince Arthur that will be held later in the night at the Hillsborough Castle. Her parent did receive one for each of the two of them but yet, she got none. Her parent’s assumption was maybe the man who passed the invitation card didn’t get to give them hers but she knew the queen did it intentionally. Her source told her that no lady who will be among the girls who the princes are going

Perhaps it was the way she had dressed, that night as all attention was a tipsy Chloe and the way she sways her body to the tune while the prince held her hand. The dancing fall was left for the duo as they danced their heart away, not realizing that. The queens face held a smile, it is the first she had seen one of her boys interested in a lady that much. Especially Arthur, he keeps things to himself. The influence of losing his parents at that young age had affected him, to the extent that he had to see a therapist. And luckily for them, he improved but differently. It was an achievement for the queen. Now since, he might be interested in Chloe; she will make necessary preparation as time is not on her side. The dance ended and Prince Arthur let go of Chloe. He was feeling dizzy because he was used to dancing that much. Even in the united state, where he is in a situation where he had to attend a dance or party, as the foreigners calls it, he always makes sure he doesn’t involve h
