A PRINCE AND HIS MATE-chapter 1
Natsu's POV
My name is Natsu Dragneel and I am the prince of the Dragneel kingdom. It's really nice to be a prince, because you're like Stinking rich and everybody likes you, especially the girls, but it's really boring and frustrating at the same time, because they like you only because you're a prince, without knowing you personally or even talked to you once! Anyway, apart from those things there is one that I have a big problem with right now, they want you to marry a princess and become king once you're at age, as if being prince wasn't bad enough, and don't even get me started about the marry a princess thingy, because I think it's totally wrong to marry someone you don't even know. I just want to marry the one I choose and not whoever my parents tell me to. Actually I remember a story I read once about how every dragon slayer has a mate, their partner for life, about how fate is supposed to bring them together and about how they share the same mark(and I just happen to have a weird mark that I don't know what it is). Ok, I told you about that story, because...yep you guessed it, I am a dragon slayer, a fire dragon slayer to be exact. I really wonder if I really have a mate and if I have how is she like? where is she right now? will I ever meet her? I so want to meet her as soon as possible because somedays ago I came at age to marry and become king and today I am meeting my fiancée, princess Lisanna, to whom I am getting married to in 3 months, which I would like to avoid and just find my mate and marry her, since I know she's the one for me.
"Natsu! What in the world are you doing in there!"
Huh, is that my mom, but why is she shouting like that, doesn't she know how to knock? I better go get the door...
"What is it mom, why are you shouting, don't you know how to knock?"
"Are you kidding me? I've been knocking on your door for minutes now, what were you doing in there?"
"W-what...I was just thinking some stuff""yeah, stuff like how I don't want to marry that princess.
"Mmm, that's rare for you"
"Whatever mom, what did you want?"
"King and queen Strauss together with princess Lisanna are waiting for you to come see them"Wait, they are here? does that mean I am not going to meet my mate, or will I just meet her in those 3 months that I have left before the wedding?
"What, they came already?...whatever i'm coming"
I followed my mom and started walking down the halls of the palace, while I was trying to kill my boredom by looking at the paintings on the walls, but of course it didn't work.
We're now behind of the big doors of the main room of the palace, where they're waiting for us. My mom opens the door and the big room with the closed curtains at the side, tables full of flowers, even more paintings in it's walls than the hall's walls and with bright lights doing the job that the sun could do too, but doesn't do because it's like a tradition to have the curtains closed.
In the middle of the room is my father, king Igneel, my mother who just joined them, queen Akiko, Lisanna's father, king Akihiro, Lisanna's mother, queen Hisako and finally my fiancée, princess Lisanna.
I now have started my way to them, feeling quite bored, because none of them are interesting,and also feeling sad, because they're making me marry someone I don't want to and mad for the same reason. They are all looking at me with a 'uh, so you finally decided to come' kind of expression, or atleast most of them, since lisanna is looking at me like I am a freaking god or something.
