the next selection

My mom never really talked about how she and dad met. So I always thout it was something romantic like they met on a beach or she bumped in to him one day at the coffee shop. I did not exepect that she was in the selection and she fee in love with my dad the guard and in got kicked out of the selection. Yeah tharts right I'm Milena Woodwork. My parents are the famous Marlee Woodwork and Carter Woodwork who were whipped because of a affair during the selection. I knew my parents worked in the palace but then moved to Midston where we live now. So you can imagine my suprise when they told me the whole story. I guess since Prince Cameron Schreave waabout to have his selection they thought some old gossip about what happened might resurface especially since I'm 18 and I can enter.

When the letter arrived in the mail you can imagine my shock when my mother told me to enter. Of course I entered being a 7 we didn't have much money so it would help a lot but I didn't get my hopes up because I knew how many girls would enter but still Friday night we all sat around the TV and our neibours waiting to see who got selected.

Gravils oldest son, Joel, walked on stage jut like his father used to do. He asked Quessn America if she had any advice for the girls. She simply replied " Just be your self and don't be scared to share your opinion". Queen America was a lovely Queen and a lovely mother as far as I can tell. Joel also asked Prince Cameron's little sister princess Madeleine what she thought about the selection. She replied in her cute 6 year old way that she was looking forward to having a big sister.

Finally they got to the announcement of the selected girls. I was so nervous that I couldn't even look at the screen. I heard some thing that wounded like my name and then girly screens. I turned around just in timeto see a picture of me with my blonde wavy hair and my green eyes and a big smile flash across the screen. The prince smiled and the king and Quinn looked shocked but weren't sure if the new me.

That was the moment my whole life changed .
