This story is all about Alanna going to the convent and then she visits the
palace because her father arranges a marriage with Gary (the younger,
obviously!) of Naxen to solve the family feud they have going. Alanna falls
in love ... but not with Gary and Gary's in love... with Lady Cynthera of
Elden. What will happen?
1 Chapter 1
Alanna sighed. She was betrothed to a member of a house Trebond had been fighting with since her great Grandmother's deceit; Naxen. Now, herself and Maude were travelling to the palace for her to meet her new husband, Gareth of Naxen, or Gary as her twin brother normally referred to him as in her letter. The only good point of the visit, as Alanna saw it, was the fact she would get to meet her brother after seven years of being apart.
Alanna and Maude waited as the gate to the magnificent palace was opened and they were directed to Duke Gareth's Chambers where Alanna and Gary would officially be introduced. The King and Queen would also be there so Alanna was dressed to in the finest gown she owned. Not comfortable to ride in for five hours. The servant showed them in and after bowing lefts. Alanna and Maude both curtsied to the King and Queen. As she straightened, she took a quick glance round the room. Thom was there, grinning over his knowledge that his sister would be hating every moment of what was going on. Duke Gareth was smiling warmly at her, with a hand on the shoulder of a person who could only be his son, Gary and, beside the King and Queen was a young man with jet-black hair and sapphire blue eyes. Alanna bit back a gasp. He was the most handsome she had ever set her eyes on. The only problem was, with a crown on his head, he could only be Prince Jonathan of Conte, heir to the throne.
Short. I know. Tell me what you think and I'll carry on. I want five reviews!
