MasukHaving 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.
"No that's not-," I stopped as I looked at the clock. She was right, it was 11:47. I had overslept.
Adeline took my distraction to her advantage and escaped my arms, running to the door while gigging.
"Hey come back here you little rascal!" I smiled and ran after her.
Clearly, I did not watch my step as I accidentally smashed into someone, falling on top of them.
"Oh I'm so sor-," I stopped as I looked down at a very shy smile.
"Morning your highness," Liam chuckled as he helped me get back on my feet.
"It's Chloe," I smiled. "Sorry about that, I didn't see where I was going."
He chuckled, "It's not a problem, you did seem quite concentrated on your prey," he teased as he nodded his head to where Abby had gone.
"Yea," I ran my hand through my hair and realization hit me. I was still in my pajamas, and my hair was probably a mess. I blushed furiously, "I should probably go change." I said quickly and practically ran back to my room.
"Cute pajamas!" Was the last thing I heard before I locked myself in my room.
After a very long shower, I had some tea and cupcakes with Addy, who had invited me to her extremely important tea party. Who was I to refuse such invitation?
My mother and some maids were there too, along with Addy's pink Teddy Bear Lara and her twin dolls Sophie and Sophie.
"You overslept," mom told me as she drank from her tiny tea cup.
"Sorry about that," I said softly, looking at her. "I just stayed up late studying for my Spanish classes, I have my first exam tomorrow."
"Speaking of, I heard about your tutor. Your father and I are not really happy about him."
"What?" I frowned. "He is an excellent teacher."
"He may be an excellent teacher, but it is clear you two have something more than a professional relationship."
"That's not true," I lied. Okay, so maybe I did stay 30 minutes more than I should just to talk to him a little bit more, but we were still professional. Right?
"Little bird has told us that you call him by his first name, and he calls you Chloe."
"That doesn't mean anything," I huffed.
"But it could," she sighed. "Look, you have duties to follow. And those most definitely include marrying Kyle, so be careful. If you and him are ever seen being close, it will be considered treason and you won't see him again. Understood?"
I looked down to my tea, suddenly I wasn't hungry anymore. "Yes mother," I replied.

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
The 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 win
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
