CHAPTER ONE

“Entering the hall is Your Majesty, King Zyden George X and his wife Queen Ellena.” The announcer said loudly as the couple stood at the top of the stairs. "Followed by their beautiful and only daughter, the heir apparent, Princess Hannah Antonette Ruiz from the Kingdom of Andorra." Hannah sighed as yet again her name was spoken incorrectly. It’s Antonyeite, not Antonette. She just fixed her navy-blue ball gown that the dressmakers had just made for her. It is her kind of gown. She likes to wear gowns that would really fit her curves. “Hannah, faster.” She rolled her eyes as her father called her. They were already at the bottom of the stairs while she was still at the top. She sighed, then walked to the stairs. She could feel the eyes of the guests on her. She can’t blame them. This is the first time the heir apparent of the Andorra Kingdom has appeared at a big event. Her father didn’t want her to be known to people until she turned 18. Yesterday marked her 18th birthday, and

CHAPTER TWO

“What did you just do there, young lady?” Her father’s hard voice echoed in the small room that she had just stepped into, breaking her temporary freedom. She didn’t know that she was being followed. “You acted like you’re not a princess in front of the prince!” He hissed.He locked the door, afraid that someone would hear them. Behind him is her mother, just looking at her with her cold eyes, as if Hannah was just a commoner working for them. “I just did what I thought was right, father.” Hannah said calmly, as she fixed her gown. “Thought right?! That’s absurd! The prince was insulted because of your behavior!” Prince George raised his hand and made Hannah close her eyes, waiting for the slap.This is also normal in the Ruiz household. Physical abuse was a normal punishment, especially if you didn’t meet their expectations or if you didn’t do well.But after a few minutes, a slap wasn’t heard. “You should be thankful; the Prince of Norway is looking for us right now.” He said har

CHAPTER THREE

“Because this is a private place. No one is allowed to enter this place except for the next in throne.” He answered. “The guests were already told about the places that they could roam around and the off-limits. I should have known that there would always be a stubborn guest who didn’t care about the rules.” Cockiness was heard in his tone, slightly offending Hannah. She grew up full of rules and somehow followed all of them like a good girl. Yes, there are instances when she can be hardheaded, but it still irritates her when someone calls her a rule-breaker. “So, what brings you here, princess?” She felt him sit on the other side of the bench where she was sitting. Knowing that there was no point in avoiding him, she just sighed and turned her head to watch the fountain. Silence enveloped them, only the orchestra playing in the inside of the ballroom and the crickets was heard. Until she breaks the silence. “Do you think commoners also have a difficult life?” He seemed taken aba

CHAPTER FOUR

“You piece of disappointment!” Hannah bit her lip as the sting on her left cheek from her father’s slap covered her entire being. As soon as her parents saw her when she went inside the palace, she was dragged until the limousine that brought them home. It took days to travel from Norway to Andorra via land, but since her parents were not in a good mood, they called a chopper on. Her father was fuming mad that he didn’t talk while traveling. It looked like her father had enough of her mistakes since as soon as she was dragged into their house, her father immediately lands his hand on hers, without minding the people who were around. Even her own mother couldn’t care less. “I already warned you, young lady. Your only task is to shut your mouth and act like a good girl.” Her mother’s voice was void of emotion, as if she was just giving her instructions. “But you still failed. You’re such a disappointment to our family.” “Do you know what those people say about what you’ve done?” Her

CHAPTER FIVE

The day Hannah feared finally arrived. She was mentally debating whether she should go, enjoy the freedom of visiting new places and making new friends, which would also make her parents happy, or just hide and let her parents punish her for being such a stubborn child again. She was still panicking as she watched all the maids, cooks, and even guards preparing and readying the palace for this event. Apparently, her parents won’t let this program slide to impress the royals with how “successful” the Andorra Palace is. “Relax your face muscles, Your Highness.” Hannah sighed when the royal make-up artist said that. “You don’t have to be nervous. You should be confident and be proud to show them your palace.” “Right.” She whispered but then jolted when she heard a slapping sound. She gasped and stood straight when she saw her head bodyguard, Dix, slap the make-up artist. “Dix!” She exclaimed, shockingly. “You do not have permission to scold the Royal Highness.” His voice was so hard a

CHAPTER SIX

Prince Joachim, who was sitting on Hannah’s left, looked at her confused when she turned her whole body on his side. She could feel that everyone at the table stood to greet the newcomers.“Hannah.”She bit her lower lip and flinched when her mother called her. Hannah tried to relax her expression as she slowly stood and went to her mother's side, who was looking at her incredulously.“These are Prince Alexios and his siblings, Princess Olympia and Prince Ezio of Greece.” Hannah smiled, still looking directly at them, and curtsied.Your Highness, we’re sorry for being tardy on this important event. We encountered a minor accident on the road." Prince Alexios reasoned ashe kissed the back of Hannah’s offered hand.“Call me Hannah. And I hope you are all okay. Your Highnesses’ well-being is more important than anything.” She commented. It’s actually a sincere comment, but she bet her life that her parents were very proud of her reply. Hannah mentally rolled her eyes. However, it looke

CHAPTER SEVEN

Feeling a weight on her belly, Hannah groaned and woke up. The room was still dark inside and also outside when she glanced at the window. Carefully, she moved Astrrid’s hand away from her body. Hannah moved slowly from the room, not wanting to wake Astrrid.After she got her coat, she went downstairs to get herself a glass of water. Most of the lights were turned off as she passed through the hallway. The light coming from the full moon helps Hannah see clearly. When she reached for the modern kitchen, she opened the fridge to get water when she saw a silhouette near the kitchen window.“Oh God.” Hannah clutched her hand to her heart when it was beating so hard because of the shock. After taking a breath, she fully faced the intruder.“Oh.” She muttered, realizing who was behind it. Unable to think of what to do, she just jugged the water bottle and left it on the sink, wanting to exit immediately. However, before she could entirely leave the kitchen, he spoke.“Can’t sleep?”Being i

CHAPTER EIGHT

She has also felt it since when Prince Alexios sat beside her a while ago. However, she shrugged it off, not wanting to assume anything from it. Princess Astrrid, however, pointed it out, making her conscious of anything she does. They were having lunch at Celler d'en Toni, which was also in Andorra la Vella. Minister Kal introduces different main dishes that Hannah already knew since they were also served in the palace sometimes. The vintage style of the restaurant is evidence that it has been present since the early times. The restaurant was passed from generation to generation; thus, the menu has an authentic taste that the customers always love, especially Hannah. The restaurant was one of the country's tourism prides because it had been around since the beginning. Hannah and Astrrid were enjoying chatting while waiting for the main dishes when she felt those shivers. That just meant that he was staring again. She sighed and put down her utensils. “Do you have something to say

CHAAPTER NINE

Hannah immediately stood up and tried her luck to retrace her steps. Nervousness started to creep into her being when she couldn’t still find Catalina, not even a silhouette. She was far from the river now, trailing back her steps. She feels exasperated as time goes by, especially when she realizes that the map was on Catalina’s. If she wandered without it, then she was sure as hell that there would be two princesses lost in just an hour. Calling Catalina’s name, hoping the mentioned name will hear it, but no one’s answering her aside from the birds and the breeze of the wind. She was already sweating from the panic she felt. Her heart beats like crazy, and a series of thoughts keep going through her head. Reaching for her phone, she wanted to call Catalina, but realizing she didn’t have the princess’ number, she sighed once again and put it back down. She knew if she tried to call Minister Kal, then he would help her find Catalina, but then she knew he would tell her parents. And

CHAPTER TEN

“The scheduled tour in our country will push through until the end of the week. But that’s it.” Her father continued.All the people at the table looked confused as they stared at each other.“May I ask what’s the reason for the postponement, His Majesty?” Prince Henrik asked seriously.“The Palace of Norway contacted us.” Everyone looked at Princes Flint and Jet, who just continued eating. It looked like they already knew about this. “They wanted the princes to be present during the choosing of the bride for Prince Flint, which will be happening next month.”Murmurs filled the table. Hannah can’t help but glance at the mentioned prince. He was still continuing to eat as if they were not talking about him. She can’t read his expression. When Hannah looked around, her gaze was drawn to Catalina, who was hurling daggers at her, prompting Hannah to roll her eyes and return to her meal.“What’s the rush though? It's not like Flint is so old for them to marry him off early.” Princess Akari
