I sat brushing my hair while looking out the window as Ben was getting fitted for his coronation suit. The proclamation he was planning on making was very risky that's for sure, and as his royal advisor I made that clear, considering four other students from Maldonia and Arendelle were coming as well. But soon I gave in, knowing that it was good thing to do.
"Mistress, is silk a good fabric for you coronation day dress?" I was brought out of my thoughts as a seamstress shoved a swatch of gold fabric in my face. Annoyed, I was her off saying it was fine, earning a laugh from Ben.
"Not happy about wearing a dress are we?" he mused.
"I just don't understand me being blessed either. I'm not becoming the ruler". As the king's royal advisor, I'm going to be blessed after vowing to keep Ben on the right track for the good of the country. Which, considering his manipulation skills, seems impossible.
"Well you're really going be the one running the country and making the decisions. One of which is choosing my future queen" he said, giving me an evil smirk.
"How long are you going to continue the dating charade with the frilly pink monster?" I teased, with my name for Princess Audrey. Considering, she hates me for denouncing her as a good match for Ben in front of the council, I have no doubt she has a harsh name for me too. She tried rubbing in my face when Ben dejectedly accepted her invitation to date. But I knew Ben. Doing it to spare her feelings until a true match has been made by me and my father, King Adam's royal advisor and best friend.
He sighed. "I don't know. I've tried dumping her, but she keeps changing the subject"
"so…you've become a doormat?"
He glares at me when his parents enter and start speaking to him. I bow and leave the room. I don't want to deal with King Adam when he goes into angry beast mode. As I walk through the halls of the castle, I start to make a mental list of what to do IF Ben's proclamation passes. Let's see, 3 girls, 5 boys. One's going to have to room with me the other with Doug, talk to Fairy Godmother about a Remedial Goodness class…
I'm suddenly pulled out of my thoughts with King Adams yelling and the tailor walking past me, white as a ghost and whimpering in fear. Oh Lord, he must have told them about Maleficent's daughter. I rush back to the room just as Ben was pleading. And my father was there as well, giving me a nervous smile as I enter the room. King Adam notices and gives me a pointed look.
"and what do you have to say about all this?" he growls
I walk over to Ben, linking my arm with his, and standing tall before I speak
"Your majesty, you believe in the art of discipline, which I commend you for. But in punishing the villains, you are also punishing innocents who weren't even around when said crimes were done. And since they haven't committed a crime at all, is it really fair to give them the same punishment their parents"
I feel Ben's hand squeeze mine in support while Belle looks to her husband with a pleading face
"I suppose the children are innocent." He says finally walking away. Belle comes over and says "well done" to the both of us. My father gives me a giant grin, hugging me.
"You are going to make a terrific advisor Lorelai. Your mother would be so proud."
He kisses my cheek before going to join Ben's parents while Ben and I walk over to the window, both praying that this plan would work.
Hey, this is my first serious fanfic, and yes, I'm going to be having five OC's, including Lorelai and her love interest. Try and guess which kingdom he'll be from. Lol, anyways, review, fav, and follow it up m little Evilettes in training! Ta ta!
