Author: I love "Be My Princess" so I' am making this story. I do not own "Be My Princess" the only thing that belongs to me is my story and my OC's. Enjoy reading readers.
I'm a Princess?
~…X…~
"…" A young female with long white layered hair that reaches down her waist was staring at an old man that seems to be wearing a butler clothes standing a few feet away in front of her. Her emerald eyes did not waver as the old man talks to her in a soft, gentle tone.
"You are the princess of Caelum Kingdom, Princess Lucian." The butler said.
Lucian's POV
"…" I blinked my eyes before looking away. What the hell is going on? This old man just suddenly showed up and tells me that I'm a freaking princess. As if I'll be believe that shit. I've been living alone since I was a child, how the hell am I a princess? "…uh huh…" I said with as much uninterested tone I could put in my word.
"I am a butler who serves his Majesty of Caelum. The proof that you are the princess is that necklace you are wearing Princess Lucian." The old man said before looking down at the necklace hanging on my neck.
"What…?" I moved my eyes down towards the necklace on my neck. What does my necklace have to do with any of this? "Uh…what are you talking about?" I asked as I moved my gaze back at the old man.
"That necklace you are wearing Princess Lucian was given to you by your parents when you were born."
"My parents…" My eyes slightly grew. I don't even who my parents are...well a little but I can't really picture what they look like. There was a sudden pain on my chest. I hate it when I hear that word.
"I was sent here by His Majesty to come and get you Princess Lucian."
"…His Majesty…you mean King Noctis?" I raised my eyebrows. Is this old man telling me that my father is the king of a country? Please tell me that he's joking.
"Yes." The butler nodded his head. "His Majesty is your one and only father Princess Lucian."
"…" I didn't know that I dropped my school bag after hearing the old man's word until I heard my bag hitting the ground.
*THUD*
~…X…~
"Please if you may follow me Princess Lucian." The butler said after closing the door of the car.
"Don't call me Princess." I said. "Lucian is fine."
"Ah…my apology but that would be really rude of me if I were to call you by your name." The butler bows his head before gesturing his hand towards the door of the castle.
"…." I raised my head up to look at the castle before me. I've seen this castle on TV but I never really thought much about it. I have to return this necklace and get out of here as soon as possible. I raised my hand and touched my necklace. I don't want to be involved with any of this royalty.
The moment I step my foot inside the castle two lines of maid bowed their head. "Welcome home Princess Lucian."
"!" I stopped upon hearing them call my name, What the?
"Please follow me, Princess Lucian." The butler said kindly.
"Please stop calling me that." I said a little irritated as I followed him. I noticed that the entire maid were smiling very kindly as they watch me walk down the long hallway of the castle. Damn some of those are fake smile…that's sad.
~…X…~
We stopped in front of a giant door. "…" I looked away. I really don't want to meet the king. If he is my father then what kind of a father is he for leaving me? "…" The pain from my chest grew.
The door slowly opened and I looked ahead to see a man with dark blue medium spiked hair and has the same color as my eyes sitting on the throne. He looks pretty young to be a king. I guess never judge a book from its cover. "…" I looked away not wanting to see the king's face as I walked up to the throne.
The man sitting on the throne raised his head up from his palm and his eyes immediately grew. The paper he was holding fell on the floor. "Ah…" He quickly stood up from his throne.
"Your Majesty I have brought Princess Lucian as you requested." The old man said and bows his head.
"Ah!" I didn't know what just happened but I was suddenly hugged by the king. My eyes widened when he wrapped his arms around me, tightly holding me as if he was afraid that I would disappear if he were to let go of me.
"Lucian!" King Noctis cried out. "I miss you so much!" I could hear him cry in my ears but there was no expression on my face that shows happiness at all.
"…" I don't feel anything inside me as I let him continue to hug me. There's no point for me to feel anything….
King Noctis pulled away from me but still held me in his arms. "Lucian I'm so happy that we found you." He smiled.
"…" I stared at him. Happy? Why would he feel happy seeing me after for thirteen years? He thinks he could just act like this in front of me? I pulled away from him and stepped back. I don't know what expression I' am showing to him right now but all I could feel inside is pain and sadness.
"Ah…" King Noctis blinked. "Lucian…?"
"Sorry…" I looked away from him.
"…leave us." King Noctis said not taking his eyes off from me.
"Yes Your Majesty." The butler bowed his head before walking out the door. The soldiers in the room did the same before closing the door.
"Lucian…I know what you're thinking and I'm sorry." King Noctis said with a sad expression on his face.
"…no, you don't." I said quietly as I looked up at him. "I'm sorry Your Majesty but I just came here to return this necklace." I took the necklace off my beck and handed to the king.
"…" King Noctis' eyes grew as he stared at the necklace from my hand. "B-but that's your-"
"I don't want to keep something as valuable as this necklace Your Majesty."
"…" King Noctis' eyes wavered. "…Why won't you call me father?" His tone changed, he sound so heartbroken.
"…I can't really call you my father after not seeing you for thirteen years." I smiled a little.
"Ah…" King Noctis lowered his eyes. "…I'm sorry…"
"…" I looked away from the king before lowering my hand. "I don't know what your reason for leaving me when I was a child but I don't hate you."
"Ah." The king quickly looked back at me.
"I forgive you so please take this necklace." I raised my hand back towards the king with the necklace. I don't want to keep this necklace anymore.
"No please keep it. That necklace belongs to you."
"…then I'm leaving." I turned around and started walking away towards the door.
"Ah!" King Noctis' eyes widen. "Wait you can't leave!" He ran after me and suddenly.
"Ah!" All of a sudden the king grabbed my leg.
*THUD*
I fell on the floor and hit me face hard on the floor. "Ow!"
"Please don't leave!" King Noctis cried like a little kid. "You're my only child!"
"What the?" I looked back at the king. He's crying?!
"Please you can't leave! I've searched for you since I lost you!"
What does he mean since he lost me? Didn't he leave me? "H-hey let go of my leg!" I tried to shake him off of me but he wouldn't let go at all.
"I want to explain everything to you!" King Noctis cried out again. "But I'm afraid that you'll hate me!"
"Ah!" I stopped and stared at the king. "Why would I hate you…?" I already told him that I don't hate him.
"Then please don't leave me. You're the only one I have left in my life." King Noctis said with a pained look in his eyes as he looks at me.
"…" I bit my lower lips. How am I supposed to say no to him? He's freakin looking at me with his puppy eyes!
"Please Lucian…" Noctis' lips wavered as he stares at me. He looks like he's gonna cry again.
"…oh okay fine! Just please stop looking at me with those puppy eyes of yours!"
"Yay!" The king immediately smiled and let go of me leg.
"!" My eyes widen as I stared at him. Did he just trick me?!
Noctis stood up and offered his hand towards me and I took his hand. "I'll explain everything to you. So please just don't leave." The king said as he wiped the tears from his eyes with his sleeves.
"…Your Majes-"I was cut off by the king.
"Lucian I wish that you would call me father." The king said smiling sadly.
"…I'm sorry…but I can't." I said and I bite my lower lip.
"Why not?" King Noctis' eyes wavered.
"It's not easy for someone to call a person who they haven't seen for many years to call them their father." I looked away from the king as he stared at me before lowering his eyes. "It's not easy for me….but I will call you that again in the future."
"Ah." The king raised his eyes up to me and smiled. "I can wait."
"…" My eyes didn't waver as I look at the king.
"Come with me. I want to show you something." The said as he offered his hand towards me again.
"…" I reached out to take his hand but quickly moved my hand back. "Sorry." I lowered my hand. I can't hold his hand even if want to.
"That's okay…" The king smiled a little before pulling his hand back.
We walked towards the door. When we walked out of the room the old butler and the soldiers were all standing in front of us.
"…" the only one that I noticed that had a worried look on their face was the butler.
"Do not disturb me and my daughter for today." King Noctis said kindly.
"Yes Your Majesty." The butler bows his head along with the soldiers.
"Come Lucian." King Noctis said turning his head back at me.
"…" I nodded my head before following the king.
As we were walking down the long hallway of the castle I took a glance at the king beside me from the corner of my eye. He was smiling and there was light showing in his eyes. "…"
"Your mother would have been very happy to see you." The king said and I noticed that the smile on his face quickly disappeared.
"…" I looked away. I know what happened to the Queen. A few years ago when I was six and was still living at an orphanage the Queen of Caelum died from a weak health. It was announced at the news and it went worldwide….many people mourned for the loss of the Queen and that was the last time I ever watched on TV that was related to any royalty. I have only a few memories of my mother before I was kidnapped by some man. I was traumatized that day that when I woke up I didn't remember anything from my past except a few memories of my mother and my father. At first I didn't even know why I have those memories and I didn't even know who they were. So I ignored everything since that day until now.
We stopped in front of a large door and when the king opened the door my eyes slightly grew. "…" I stood at the doorway and my heart begun to beat faster. I didn't know why but I felt like I've seen this room before.
"…" King Noctis turned his head to me before placing his hand on my back. "This is where you would always spend your time with me and your mother."
"…" I took a step back, and my legs begun to feel numb as I continued to stare at the room. The king sensed that I was beginning to feel weak and he led me to a white sofa in the middle of the room.
"Are you okay?" King Noctis asked before sitting next to me on the sofa. He had a worried look on his face as he looks at me.
"I-I'm fine…" I said. "Just a little surprised that's all."
"Would you like something to drink?"
I shook my head. "No it's okay."
I can't believe that all these memories that I forgot were all suddenly coming back to me. My head was beginning to hurt but I tried not to show it to the king. He begun to tell me everything, about me being kidnapped, my mother's death, and all the years he had searched for me.
"…" My breathing was heavy and I looked away from the king. Everything he said is all true. He didn't leave me when I was a child. Memories from the past suddenly came flooding in my head. Memories of my father and my mother, and six young boys smiling at me all came flooding in my head. My hand begun to shake as I tried to stay as calm as possible. My heart began to pound wildly inside my chest.
"Lucian?" King Noctis looked back at me. "Are you okay?" He stood up in front of me.
"…I-I'm fine…"
King Noctis leans down and touches my forehead. "You're forehead it's sweating." He wipes the sweat on my forehead. "I'll go get us something to drink." He stood straight back. "I'll be right back." He smiled kindly before walking away from me.
"No please don't." I quickly stood up from the sofa. "Ah!" My eyes widen when I suddenly felt my body gone numb.
*THUD*
3rd POV
"Huh." King Noctis turned his head around when he heard the sound. "Lucian!" He screamed when he saw his daughter lying on the floor unconscious. He ran up to her and picked her up in his arms. "Lucian! Wake up!" he shook her body but she wouldn't open her eyes. "Lucian!"
Just then the butler and other maids all came running in the room.
"Your Majesty!" The butler exclaimed.
"Get the doctor!" The king shouted without looking at anyone except for Lucian.
"Yes Your Majesty!" One of the butlers said before running out of the room.
It did not take long for two doctors a man and a woman wearing a white coat to come rushing inside the room.
~…X…~
The next day in the afternoon
Lucian's POV
I slowly opened my eyes and I was in a room that I don't even know how I even got here. "Uh…" I sat up on the bed. Uh…my head hurts. I touched the top of my head when I saw the king on the side of the bed, sleeping. "…" I turned my head towards the king.
When I shifted on the bed the king suddenly woke up. "…nn…" He slowly lifted his eyelids before looking up at me. "Lucian, are you alright?!" He quickly sat up on the chair he was sitting on.
"Yeah," I nodded my head.
"You suddenly collapsed yesterday. Are you sure that you're alright?" Father said with fell of worriedness in his tone. "We can go to the hospital if you are not feeling well."
"No I'm really alright."
"Oh okay then." Father relaxed upon hearing. "Ah are you hungry? I'll get someone to bring you something to eat." He stood up from his chair.
"…" I looked up at the king.
"What would you like to eat?" Father said as he turned around.
"….I remembered everything." I said quietly and lowered my head down.
Father turned his body back at me. "Huh?"
"I remember everything that happened in my childhood…." My voice was shaking. The first thing that came into my mind as I said this was the memory of me being kidnapped by some man wearing a black mask. "I-I remember that night w-when I was kidnapped."
"Ah…"
"I called out to you many times that night hoping that you would come and save me….b-but you never came." I felt warm liquid running down my cheeks and my body started to tremble as I recall the horrible night.
".." Father's eyes widened the moment he saw the tears flowing down Lucian's face.
"You never came to save me…" *Sniff* I lowered my head as I wiped the tears off my face. But the tears won't stop flowing down my face. "You promised that you and mother would always be with me….and that you would come and rescue me if anything were to happen to me….but you never came *Sob* you never saved me from that man that took me away that night." I couldn't hold the feelings that were building inside me. "Father, you never came!" I cried out.
All of a sudden I felt my father's arms wrapped around my shaking body. "!" My eyes widened as he pulled me closer to him.
"Lucian I' am so sorry." Father said his voice full of sadness. There was a pained expression on his face. "I' am so sorry that I broke my promise to you my child." He hugged me tighter in his arms.
"Aaaaaahhhh!" I took a gripped of my shirt as I buried my face on his chest. "Waaaaahhhhh!"
"I'm sorry…please forgive, me Lucian…"
I didn't know how long I cried in my father's arms but he never left me. He stayed with me as I fell asleep in his warm embrace.
~…X…~
It has been more than a week now since I started living here at Caelum's Castle. At first I didn't want to live here so I planned to leave one night but my father caught me when I was about to step my foot out of the castle.
Few days earlier
That's weird why aren't there any soldiers standing in the hallway? I looked around my surroundings as I continued to walk towards the door. "…"
I got to the door and when I opened the door my father was there outside standing in front of me, his arms crossed over his chest.
"Ah…" I froze when I met his eyes quickly locking into mine. Now I know why there was not a single soldier in the hallway tonight. They all knew all along.
"You're leaving aren't you?" Father said in a very calm tone as he continued to stare at me straight in the eyes.
"…y-yeah…" I lowered my head. I couldn't look straight at father.
"…." Father's eyes narrowed and begun walking towards me.
"…" I bit my lower lip and my heart begun to pound wildly. Is he gonna punish me for trying to leave this place?
~...X…~
