"Princess Ruthy, it's time to have breakfast," said Genesis, one of my maids. I rose from my reading table and straightened my gown. I glanced at Genesis and showed her a bright smile, where she giggled and returned a smile as well. As I was straightening my gown, Danielle, my other maid, rushed to my said, "Let me do it for you, princess." "Oh no, it's okay. I can handle it," I said and winked at her. Danielle and Genesis bowed. My maids are used to my attitude- the winks, gestures, and speech, but I don’t act like this in front of my Father. He’s the King, of course I won’t get away with it. I may be his daughter, but I am also a princess. A princess who should act with decency and pride- which I sometimes lack. I’m still growing, okay? "Now, let's go." I positioned my tiara while walking down the hall and came down the stairs. The guards opened the double-doors which led to the Dining Hall. "Good morning, Father," I

I cat-walked my way to the throne room where my Dad is supposed to be waiting. The throne room is one of the biggest rooms in the palace where we sometimes hold meetings with the whole royal family. "Yes Dad?" I asked as I stood in front of his throne. "Have you signed the papers?" He asked and I nodded. "Very good. I hope nothing absurd will happen during the parade," Dad added. There was a brief silence before Dad spoke up. I made my way to my seat to join him. "Have you ever thought of getting married?" Dad suddenly asked and I almost choked my own saliva. "What?" I exclaimed and cleared my throat. What’s with the sudden topic? Well, Dad usually speaks to us about sensitive and confidential topics to ask for our opinions, but this is the first time he mentioned marriage. "I'm just a little worried, dear. You'll be turning eighteen in a few months. The court will bring up the rule again- about you needing to be married to be

My maids are currently putting me in my peach lace tube gown that has pointed tips on the breasts. "Isn't this too revealing?" I complained as I looked at myself in the tall mirror. Is this even appropriate? "It looks perfect on you, Your Highness. You look absolutely stunning," Genesis said. I heaved a sigh. I feel like this is so inappropriate. It's a parade for the orphans- for children! "Please let me change," I pleaded and they sighed. At last, they let me change into a dark blue lace gown with thin off-shoulder sleeves. At least it's not a tube. "We're running 5 minutes late, Your Highness," Danielle said as she pins my hair into an elegant bun. "A princess is never late," I said and wore my transparent heels. I walked to the back of the palace where our float is parked. Sir Angelo and Sir Saint were waiting at the bottom of the stairs. "Ruthy, you're late," Dad said as I climbed the stairs. "Sorry. I had

"Are you sure you're okay Keith?" I asked while my maids tighten my gown. I held a breath while they tie my back. I can't believe I'm going to live my life with gowns this tight. "Of course, I am. Today is the grand celebration for the orphanage. I heard Mom set the desserts for tonight." He excitedly said and I hummed. I was wearing a rose gold fitted gown with a lace top that has long sleeves. My maids put on light make up as I requested and attached daisies around my hair. "You look gorgeous, Ruthy. I hope there ain't no suitors around?" Keith teased and we both laughed. "If there will be, he better be royal or it's his end," I said and chuckled. Keith immediately went to the Ball Room while I haste. He looks really excited for the desserts. The guards opened both the doors and I heard instruments play. "Your Highness, Princess Ruthyelia Nobingale of Rinovea," Sir Saint announced and the visitors bowed. The music played and the room

Sir Angelo was called to accompany some of the guests who were going to arrive soon so I was left alone. As I walk to the Ball Room, I saw some of the guards running toward the main entrance of the palace. Are the guests here already? I followed them and waited patiently in front of one of the fountains. A warm welcome wouldn't be so bad. "Your Highness! You have to get out of here!" shouted one of the guards who was now running towards me. My brain didn't immediately process the situation. The next thing I knew, I heard gun shots from outside. I dropped to my knees and had a shock. It suddenly hit me that there are so many people here right now. Then I heard commotion just outside the doors. "Your Highness!" I heard Sir Angelo. He came to me and pulled me back to my feet, taking me to the safe room. "But everyone else in the Ball Room..." I said with a shaky voice. I just can't imagine the people getting hurt because of me, es

"Ruthy? Are you feeling alright now?" Mom asked as she entered my room. I just finished washing and my maid was busy putting me on my dress. "Yes, Mom. The wound is healing very fast and I'm glad to get back to work now," I said. I wonder how this day is going to be. Although a lot of re-construction is happening, the palace is kinda noisy. "We actually offered Noah a place in the kitchen. He seems to have the skill in baking." She started as she sat on my bed. My eyes widened. "Oh. So he has the skill. And did he accept it?" I heard my Mom giggle. "He said only if you let him to." I found myself smiling with the thought. I just talked about giving him and his uncle a new bakery, that won't be postponed. "Thank you, Genesis," I said to my maid and then left my room with Mom. Outside my room, Sir Angelo was waiting. "Breakfast is ready, Your Majesty, Your Highness," He said with a bow. I saw the uncertainty and worry in

Noah's "And this is the fourth level of the East Wing. This is my room," Prince Keith beckoned as he opens his double-doors himself. His room was spacey. His ceiling was painted in Greek pictures, his wardrobe was in the color of beige and his bed was twice my size at home. "Woah, that is one large playhouse," I commented as I notice the other side of the room. It was a like a whole playground in one room. There was a mini castle, a wooden horse fit for his size and miniature figures that were at least 3 and a half feet tall. "Well, I don't usually play anymore because of my asthma, but still, I use them because most of them are from Ruthy," He said as he slowly walked towards the toys. I smirked. "So, your sister spoils you huh?" I teased. "Correction, it’s 'the princess'." He cleared his throat. We then walked back outside where he led the way to the room beside his which was on the other sid

Ruthy’s Me and my family are now in front of the main doors of the palace, patiently waiting for the Wilhems. I was holding a basket of sweets and Dad was holding a bottle of champagne. Keith, who is beside me, was fidgeting on his suit. “Keith, can’t you stay still?” Mom complained who was on his other side. “Sorry, Mom. My collar is a little uncomfortable,” He said, adjusting his collar. A few seconds later, the trumpets played and Sir Saint opened the doors. “Presenting, the Royal Family of Wilhem.” King Ricardo was in front, wearing a plain white coat with gold linings and an elegant single-layered silver crown. Queen Josephine, who wrapped her arm on King Ricardo’s arm, was wearing a long, asymmetrical plum dress with her hair in a bun and of course, the same crown King Ricardo was wearing. Behind them, was Princess Althea and Prince Thomas. Althea was wearing a yellow pouf dress that reached her knees and

"That- is crazy," Althea exhaled as I finish my story about the invasion. I laid down on the carpet we settled and sighed. "I told you. The world is giving me everything lately." She laid beside me and said, "By everything, you mean Noah too?" I stiffened and she laughed. "Don't tease me like that. Nothing is going on between us," I explained. Why is she even having those thoughts? I haven't even spoke about Noah yet and she only saw him once! And it was while he was serving us food! "Eh- don't put it that way. I didn't even say it like that." and she teased me even more. She laughed and I laughed too, but then I felt my chest tighten that I had to place my hand on it. She suddenly stopped. "Are you okay? Is it the wound?" She softly asked. I smiled at her. "It’s like some side effects. I guess the wound was too deep after all. It was weird for it to miraculously heal so fast." She hugged me lightly. "I guess we
