Hermione stood on her balcony gazing at the wonderful kingdom of Gryffindor, she had just finished lessons on ballroom dancing and was taking a quick break before heading downstairs for dinner.
"Your highness, would you like me to warm the bath with the green apple scent or the strawberry one?" Her maid Verona asked
Waking up from her train of thoughts she turned around to face Verona.
"The green apple scent please, Verona."
"I shall get the bath ready then your highness."
Verona quickly walked out to prepare her bath, while Hermione went back into her room to pick her dress for the evening.
She picked out a light blue dress, with long sleeves and a pair of royal blue flats.
"Your bath is ready, Princess."
"Thank you Verona,you don't have to assist me, I want to do this myself."
"But your highness,I -"
"No worries Verona, I can do this alone without anyone's help."Hermione said giving her a genuine smile
"Alright princess, but you must let me do your hair."
"Of course." Hermione said walking to her bathroom towards the bathtub
After relaxing in the bathtub for about half an hour, she stepped out and dried quickly put on her dress and walked back to her room, where Verona was waiting for her.
"Ah, your highness-"Verona began
"Would you like me to braid your hair, or do you want to put it in a bun?"
"I don't really mind, you can do whatever you want."
With that being said, Verona twisted Hermione's hair into an elegant bun.
"You like lovely m'lady."Verona said putting on the finishing touches on her hair and placing the tiara on her as well.
"Thank you Verona."Hermione said giving Verona a hug
"It is my duty, your highness, now you must get down to dinner, wouldn't want your family to be waiting?"
Hermione nodded her head and made her way down the stairs towards the dining room.
"Good evening mother,father."Hermione greeted
"You look lovely my dear."Her mother said
"Indeed you do, my little flower, now sit and wait for your sisters, I have important news to tell you all."
"Yes, father."Hermione said taking her seat next to her mum.
10 minutes later, her sisters Bethany and Cecelia had arrive.
"Girls, I have some news to tell you all."
"Now you all know that we are at war with the neighboring kingdoms right?"
Everyone At the table nodded
"Well, the kingdom of Slytherin had decided to help us, but only if one of you become the prince's bride."
"Oh my goodness, you mean one of us will have to marry Prince Draco of Slytherin." Cecelia gasped
"What do you mean one of us? He's obviously going to choose me."
"Oh please Bethany."
"Girls, girls no need to fight over this, the prince will be coming over here for about 4 weeks, where he will be spending time with each of you until he decides which one of you to marry?" Her father said
Both of Hermione's sisters squealed as loud as a pig and took off to their rooms to find the finest dresses to impress the young prince.
"So, father when will the prince be arriving?"
"Tomorrow my dear, tomorrow."
Not feeling hungry anymore Hermione got up.
"If you will excuse me your majesty's, I would like to go back to my room to rest now."
"Of course my dear, rest up." The queen said smiling at her youngest daughter
Hermione left the dining room, and went upstairs to her own room.
She walked into the bathroom to get ready for bed and also change into her nightgown.
She climbed onto her king size canopy bed, and had quickly fallen into a deep sleep, having no idea what will happen tomorrow.
