2020-05-17 09:54:58The day went by quickly, and after dinner I swung by Mia's room. She was doing her make up. I could tell she was trying on the new eye shadow palate that had arrived a couple of hours ago. I gave a light knock to the door.
"Come in!" She said cheerfully, without looking who it was. She was too concentrated doing her eyeliner to check on who it was.
"For all you know, I could be a mass murderer that you just let in," I teased as I sat down on her couch.
"C, mass murderers don't knock," she chuckled as she finished her eyeliner. She turned to face me. "What do you think?"
She was wearing a deep blue look. Starting with a little bit of white in the crease of her eye, that then turned into shades of gorgeous shiny blue, from lighter to darker. The black eyeliner gave a great contrast, and was winged. She had only done one eye, but she already looked fantastic. "I love it," I smiled widely.
She winked at me, "Thanks babe," she smiled and started doing the other eye. "So, how was your class?"
"It was pretty good," I admitted. "I'm so glad I chose Spanish and not Japanese."
"And how was your teacher?" She asked with a very innocent voice.
"Mia," I warned.
"What, is he not hot as they said he was?" When I didn't answer, she gasped. "Oh my god, please don't tell me he in fact is an 86-year-old man."
"No, no," I gave up, "he is pretty hot, and probably is 18 or 19 years old."
"I knew it!" She squealed. "Tell me everything."
After I told her about my encounter with Mr. Winters, she smiled victorious. "He is totally into you."
"M, he's not," I said immediately. "Besides, it's not like I could ever date him, Kyle exists, remember?"
She groaned. "Right, right," she paused, and a smile slowly came across her lips. "Suddenly I feel like studying Spanish, what's your schedule with him again?"
"Seriously?" I raised my eyebrows. It's not that I had anything against Mia studying with me, but we both knew that she did not enjoy learning new languages. Reason why she just finished learning Italian, and decided never to study ever again.
"Ye- No," she chuckled. "Too much work, even for a cutie."
"That's what I thought," I grinned.
I loved spending time with my best friend, so much that hours could go by and we just wouldn't notice. Which is why It wasn't until my mom came into her room asking me to go to sleep, that we realized it was past midnight.
Queen Ashley walked me to my room, and we didn't say a word the whole way through. I could still feel the tension from the argument in the morning. Once we reached my bedroom, she stopped me.
"Kyle is arriving tomorrow at 6pm," she announced. "So you will need to wear your best clothes for dinner, I want you to make a good impression. You can even ask Mia to do your makeup and hair."
I held back a groan and looked at her, "Mom, I am not going to wear makeup just for Kyle. In fact, I'm still considering if I will even wear make up for the wedding."
"Look," she sighed. "I know you don't want to do this, but I'm tired of fighting. I love you and I want what's best for you," she took my hands. "If you don't want to do it for me and Dimitri, that's fine, but at least do it for Florence. That's all I ask of you," she pleaded.
"I love you too mom," I gave her a small smile and she kissed my cheek.
"I'll see you tomorrow morning," she returned my smile and left.
I took off my high heels, and got into my pajamas. As much as I loved getting dressed up every day in dazzling gowns, my pajama was my favorite thing to wear.
I got under the sheets and tried to sleep, but for some reason all I could think about was Liam. If I didn't have to marry Kyle, could he and I ever be a possibility? I shook my head and tried not to think about it. It's not like if something could break the whole alliance without causing mayor issues.
Starting tomorrow, my new life was about to begin, whether I wanted it or not.

Having Kyle in the castle wasn't as awful as I thought. After a couple of days, I kind of got used to his presence around the halls. Although the best part was, that I didn't have to see him most of the day. If I did, it would usually be during breakfast or dinner, but even so, we didn't speak. It was perfect.I woke up to the giggling of a 10-year-old who was jumping on my bed, singing a song happily."What do we have here?" I yawned. "If it isn't my favorite princess," I said as I grabbed her legs and pulled her towards the bed, making her fall.She shrieked and giggled, hiding her face behind her pink teddy bear."Morning Abby," I smiled as I tickled her."No!" She laughed and tried to stop me."You know, it's very rude to interrupt someone's beauty sleep," I teased dramatically."It's almost noon!" She protested with a smile, sticking her tongue at me.

I sighed as I stared at my corset, it was 5 pm already, and I had to get into my corset if I wanted to wear my light blue gown. It had little sequences on the top part, creating a V shape with tiny diamonds and strings, as it went down, it got bigger and puffier. I loved a puffy dress. In the skirt part, it had breathtaking patterns, traced with some sparkly white thread. It was one of my favorite gowns, and I had to admit it made my body look amazing, giving me some curves and a bit of cleavage.Mia helped me get into the corset, the crinoline cage, and finally my dress. It was hard breathing with it, but I had gotten used to it, besides, it was worth the look.In the end, I decided to actually wear a little bit of makeup. Having some mascara, blush and a light red lipstick. My best friend was wearing a beautiful light pink gown, the bodice was also in a V shape, but it was covered with handmade flowers. The skirt of it was plain, but it was

I walked into the tuition room and noticed my new teacher was there. His back was facing me, and he was writing his name on the board. Liam Winters. I walked to my usual spot and put my stuff down, sitting on my chair.He must have not noticed me, since when he turned around, he jumped, cursing quietly. He was younger than I expected, in fact he looked around my age. Mia was right, he is pretty handsome. He had a mixture of blonde and brown hair, and his eyes were light brown, a couple of cute light freckles traveled between his cheeks and nose. My tutor stood there speechless as he looked at me. Quickly, he cleared his throat and blushed with a shy smile."Sorry, I didn't hear you come in," he smiled apologetically. I liked his voice, it was sweet and tender. I couldn't help but to smile back. "I'm your Spanish tutor, Liam Winters.""I'm Chloe," I said looking away.Godwhen did the room get so

The moment I walked into the dining room I knew something was off, my mother, the queen, who sat next to my father, had a very bright smile as she saw me walk in. I knew that smile, it meant trouble.I walked to my seat and quietly sat down, soon noticing that everyone was watching my every move. I cleared my throat "Is everything okay?" I asked suspiciously.My mother's smile just grew wider. "Of course," she said. "We just have some exciting news for you.""Oh, what is it?""Well, as you know, now that you are 18, you will have to move to Starsley after you marry prince Kyle in November," she smiled. Right, Kyle Edwards. Prince and heir to the Starsley throne, or as I like to refer myself to him, a complete douchebag. Not only does he take every chance to flirt with every girl that crosses his path, but he is also arrogant, cocky and overall annoying. But the marriage is something that was planned since I was conceived, in o
