It's been such a long time!
I thought it was time with a new story.
This story is about friendship, love, trust and hate.
Royal Love
Chapter 1
"Eva? Eva, where are you?"
King Don was searching after his daughter, princess Eva. "Where is that daughter of mine?"
A soldier walked over to him. "Is something wrong, sir?"
"My daughter is gone," Don said as an answer.
"Don't worry, my lord," the soldier said. "We will find your daughter in no time."
The king thanked him and started to go back to his bedroom. Why is this always happening to me?
Meanwhile, in another place of the castle, a young girl was sitting and admiring the beautiful day. It was Eva.
She had her father's black hair, reaching to her shoulders (no red top here), and her mother's crimson eyes. She was wearing a long dress in green and gold with long sleeves.
"Princess, we've been searching for you." Eva looked up and saw a young soldier.
"What's the matter?" Eva asked.
"Your father is searching for you."
Eva sighed. Not again!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Eva met Don in the royal hall. "What is it, Dad?"
Don looked up at his only daughter. "Eva, I have news for you."
"For me?" Eva asked.
"That's right." Eva walked over to him. "The crogs are getting closer."
"The crogs? Why are they coming?" Eva asked.
Don sighed and walked towards her. "We aren't strong enough to take care of them ourselves. Therefore, you will marry Nourasia's prince Aikka."
"What? Are you forcing me to marry some stranger?" Eva exclaimed in anger.
"This is for the kingdom's safety," Don said. "The nourasians are great fighters and an ally with them will be a great chance to defeat the crogs."
"But what is my role in this picture?" Eva asked annoyed.
"By marrying Aikka, the allies will be joined," Don said.
"What about me? Can't I choose who I wanna marry!?"
"Eva.."
"No, Dad! You don't understand! I REFUSE TO MARRY A STRANGER!"
And with that, Eva ran out of the room, leaving Don stunned over the young princess' speak.

"Princess Eva?"
One of the youngest maids, Rose, knocked on Eva's door.
"What?" Eva tried to be polite, but the anger was too powerful.
"May I come in?"
"S-Sure.." Eva sat up in the bed as Rose opened the large door.
Rose came in and closed the door behind. She had black hair in a ponytail with green eyes. Rose came over and sat down next to Eva. "I don't want to interrupt your thoughts, but perhaps you should give the prince a chance."
Eva sniffed. She couldn't answer yet. She felt that Rose had more to say.
"Maybe he's not that bad," Rose started. "Maybe he's a nice, young man."
Eva looked up at her. Rose laid the towels on the floor. "May I say something.. Eva?"
Eva's eyes became wide. No one had called her just Eva before, except for her parents. It felt so good to feel normal... "Of course."
Rose smiled a warm smile. Eva knew what Rose's smiles could make a person feel inside. Warm and calm. "My mother used to say: 'You never know until you see it yourself.'"
Eva sighed. "I've heard it before, but... I always thought it wouldn't be necessary."
Rose smiled friendly. She stood up. "Well, it's your decision. Have a good afternoon."
She grabbed the towels and walked out of the room, closing the door behind.
Eva smiled and lay down. "Maybe I should. Maybe I should give him a chance."
And with a smile pasted on her lips, Eva fell asleep.
End of chapter
That was a great chapter!
