Chapter 1
Today is the day Violet has been dreaming for, at least it has been since she was seven. Today is the day she would finally be adopted. And who else to adopt her than King Adam and Queen Belle, she would become the princess of Auradon, technically, something she never thought would happen.
The twelve year old was not sad about leaving the orphanage that she had called home for her entire life. She wasn't close to anyone at the orphanage, the kids were often mean to her and made fun of her. She only ever had one friend at the orphanage, she still considered him her best friend, Miguel. He was the kindest, funniest person she had ever known, but he was adopted five years ago, leaving Violet all alone. They had exchanged letters for awhile, but that died out.
"I'm sorry I have to leave." Miguel said.
"Don't apologize, Miguel. You've been adopted, you should be happy." Violet told him, a sad look covered her face.
"You'll find a family soon, I promise." Miguel tried to cheer her up.
"Don't make promises you can't keep." Violet replied.
"Hey, we can write each other, and we'll still be best friends." Miguel reminded.
"You've always know how to cheer me up, Miguel." Violet said.
"It's my job." Miguel replied. Miguel had left after that, but she never saw him again, she had assumed that he had forgotten about her.
Elsewhere, Ben was sitting in his office when he heard a knock at his door. As he looked up his parents were entering the room. "Are all the papers from the orphanage filled out?" He asked.
Belle nodded. The papers Ben was talking about were the adoption for Violet. Ben still remembered the day that he had met Violet during a visit to the orphanage with his parents. It was just like yesterday.
A nice looking woman with red hair and blue eyes had met them in the foyer area of the orphanage. "Hi, I'm Jenny Foxworth, and I'm glad that you decided to come visit us today." Jenny introduced. "Prince Ben, if you would like, you can look around and meet some of the kids, while I talk to your parents." Ben nodded and was off.
He walked a little when he came across a door that read 'Library'. He opened the door slightly and saw a young girl curled up on the couch reading a book. Ben didn't want to disturb her, she seemed very peaceful while reading, so Ben closed the door and went on till he found some other kids.
Ben talked to these kids for awhile, they seemed oblivious to the fact that he was their future king, which he liked. But for some reason he could not keep his eye off of two boys that stayed to themselves in the corner. They talked to each other before sneaking out of the room.
Ben's curiosity got the better of him and he silently followed the two boys. They entered the library that Ben had visited earlier, Ben watched from the doorway.
"Well, if it isn't the little bookworm?" The taller one had asked mockingly.
"What do you two want now?" The girl glared at them. The two boys glanced at each other before ripping the book for the girls hands. "Hey!" She shouted. The two held it out of her reach. They were both taller than she was so even while jumping she couldn't reach. "Give it back, Jake!"
Jake laughed. "If you insist, bookworm." Much to the girls horror, Jake started to tear the pages out of the book. The girl felt the tears to well in her eyes as the pages floated to the ground. Ben felt anger rise up in him, his mother had taught him to never destroy a book.
"What's wrong with you two? How could you do that? You're just a bunch of stupid jerks!" The girl yelled.
"Who are you calling stupid?" The other boy asked. He went to punch her in the jaw, but she caught his arm and twisted it backwards, making him scream in pain, before pushing him to the floor. She than ran through yen other door, the one that lead outside.
Ben clenched his fists and walked into the room. He grabbed the book from Jake. "Why did you do that? She's smaller than you two, that was uncalled for!" Ben said, trying to remain calm.
"Sorry," the two sarcastically apologized. They then ran from the room. Ben went out the other door, the one the girl had gone through.
He looked around a bit, but found her sitting in a tree. He decided to climb up and talk to her. "Hey, are you okay?" Ben asked. The girl shook her head. "I saw what they did. I'm so sorry, you don't deserve to be treated that way."
She didn't speak for a few moments. "I just don't know what to do, I can't stand up to them. I'm scared."
"But I saw how you had defended yourself when that one boy tried to punch you. You are not some helpless little kid. And I think we can assume that you are smarter then them."
"I wish I hadn't done that. Violence never solves anything." The girl told Ben. "Jake and Leo will probably just tease me more now."
"Listen, I'll talk to Ms. Jenny. I'm sure she can help you." Ben promised.
"Thank you," the girl smiled.
"I'm just trying to help. What's your name anyway?" Ben asked.
The girl seemed to hesitate, not knowing if she could trust this stranger. "Violet." She replied.
"I'm Ben," the Prince responded. "If you ever need anything, just tell me."
Ben came day after day, and eventually Ben invited Violet to the castle. Violet was nervous about going, but she agreed. Ben showed her the library and Belle let her take some books to read.
Violet got closer to Ben, Belle and even Adam. They would read together and play sports. Violet was soon visiting the castle several times a week. Ben would visit the orphanage as well, but as he got busier the visits would become more sporadic, though he always made time for Violet. Ben was the first friend she had since Miguel had been adopted two years earlier.
Violet was the first person Ben told his proclamation to. Violet was very excited to meet the VKs, but she was offered to attend advanced classes elsewhere in the kingdom for six months.
She had heard all about what had happened with the VKs, and after those six months, she returned to the orphanage and met with Ben. He was so excited, especially to introduce her to Mal. Violet liked Mal, she liked anyone with Ben that was not Audrey, and eventually, Violet viewed Mal as a sister, like she viewed Ben as a brother. But now, a month after Ben's visit to the Isle, they would become actual siblings.
The limo had arrived at the castle, bringing Ben out of his memories. Violet stepped out of the car and entered the castle. "Ben!" She exclaimed and she ran up to him and hugged him.
Ben looked over at his parents who smiled. "Hey Vy," Ben greeted, using a common nickname for her. "Welcome to the family."
Violet looked at Ben, then her new parents, and back at Ben. Her eyes filled with tears. She hugged Ben again. "Thank you," she whispered. Belle and Adam joined in the hug, and for now the family was safe and together.
