In our world, there are a very few rules. Keep families safe, don't question the law, and give mercy when you can. Though here that's not saying much. Our kingdom is at war with our brothering kingdom Dalton. A century of war has left our kingdom for ruin and our people hungry and cold. I didn't care much for any of these things. I was orphaned and alone from day one. But here I am part of the New Order for our kingdom. We're the last stand for this land and if we can't take down the leader of Dalton.
I was trained to be a lethal killer, and especially with my special abilities made me a forth runner as the go to girl for taking down powerful people and multiple assailants. But they have me taking care of the heir to the throne, a body guard if you will, for the princess of Mickenly.
"Princess, it's time for breakfast," Santana called through her large mahogany door. There was grumbling and then a call inviting Santana in. Santana has been doing this for a month and is already bored. She enters and closes the door. The princess then sits up and stretches the sheets falling from her body revealing her bare torso. Santana frowned and rolled her eyes.
"I believe I've told you make sure you're decent before inviting people in your room Princess," Santana says. She rubs her blue eyes and then looks at Santana. Her blonde hair falling messily over her shoulders.
"And I believe I've told you to stop calling me princess, you know I hate that. Brittany, try saying it with me, my name is Brittany," Brittany said getting up. Santana rolls her eyes and sighs.
"Just put your clothes on Brittany," Santana answers ignoring Brittany's comment.
"Oh come on don't you find me attractive and besides you know how uncomfortable I am sleeping with clothes on," Brittany replies looking through her different dresses.
"I do find you attractive but that's neither here or there, I am here to take care of you to protect you," Santana says watching her dress.
"Oh please Santana, you're a glorified baby sitter," Brittany says. Santana stares at her feeling slightly offended.
"Excuse me? I am a Knight who was put in charge of the Kings and Queens' daughter, I am not a glorified baby sitter," Santana replies. Brittany giggles.
"Of course Knight Santana, so what's on the agenda for the day?" Brittany asks brushing her hair out.
"Breakfast, horse-riding lessons with Berry and then sword fighting lessons Fabray followed by lunch and then music lessons with Jones along with praying and free time to do what you wish then dinner, bath and bed," Santana relayed. Brittany smirked at Santana and walked towards her.
"And you say you aren't a baby sitter," Brittany says before walking past her and out of the room. Santana huffs and follows her. They enter the dining hall.
"Brittany my daughter did you have a good rest?" her father David asks.
"Of course I always sleep soundly when I know Santana is watching over me father," Brittany jokes with a smile taking a seat.
"Exactly why I assigned her as your guardian. Tell me Brittany what do you think of young knight Lopez here?" David questions. Brittany looks at him confused for a second and looks to Santana who also looks confused.
"Why do you ask?" Brittany asks him.
"Oh honey there's nothing to worry about, we just want to know if you have taking a liking to Santana or not," her mother Elizabeth says and smiles at the woman setting her food down. "Why thank you Tina," she says. The young chef nods with a smile and continues handing out food.
"Well yes I have but what does that have to do with anything?" Brittany says before smiling a thank you to Tina.
"We were thinking that you two would make a wonderful pair to take over the kingdom after your mother and I retire," David says taking a large bite of his breakfast. Santana's eyes widen in shock while Brittany chokes a little on her food.
"As in being married?" Brittany questions clearing her throat and taking a drink.
"Yes, exactly. Santana is a strong leader and you have a gentle touch. Exactly what this kingdom needs once this war is over," Elizabeth replies.
"Santana please take a seat and eat with us while we discuss," David says gesturing to the chair next to Brittany. Santana hesitantly sits.
"Father, mother I am too young to be married let alone betrothed to someone," Brittany complains.
"Brittany you are eighteen and Santana is twenty you're plenty of old enough. Most people have been married by age fifteen. We've been plenty lenient on you because we believed so far no one was suited to be with you and wanted to make sure you actually liked the person you are betrothed to," David says. Brittany huffs and shakes her head.
"When I said I liked Santana that didn't mean romantically. More as I don't mind her watching over my shoulder twenty four seven. Not I want to hop in the sack with her," Brittany explained. Santana coughed a little taking a sip of the water in front of her.
"Santana what about you, what do you think of our daughter?" Elizabeth asks while David and Brittany argue.
"I… she is beautiful and wonderful your highness, but I never pictured myself as the married type," Santana replies.
"I see, do you like my daughter?" Elizabeth questions with a smile, "you two seemed to have come close since you've been brought here," Elizabeth continues.
"I, it was my duty to protect her I have to get close," Santana replies.
"It still is your duty, but Brittany has never let herself get close to really anyone in the castle aside from Quinn and Quinn is already betrothed to Rachel. You are a different story, Brittany acts differently around you and though she may argue I really do believe my daughter has taken a fancy to you," Elizabeth says. "Would you take my daughters hand in marriage?" Elizabeth asks.
"I'm not opposed to the idea madam, but I believe she is," Santana says, she and Elizabeth look over at Brittany and David still arguing.
"BRITTANY THAT IS ENOUGH! This decision has already been made. You and Santana are betrothed. As soon as this war is over you will be married and set as Queens of this kingdom that is final," David yells standing. Brittany flinches back.
"This isn't fair!" Brittany screams, "I don't want to be betrothed!"
"I could have married you off long ago child but I waited for you to fall for someone which you have yet to do. I can no longer wait for you. You are betrothed that is final," David grounds out. Brittany stands with tears in her eyes and runs out crying. David sighs and sits down.
"Come dear she'll be fine," Elizabeth says. David nods and looks at Santana who is still staring at the doorway that Brittany ran through.
"Brittany will come around Santana, don't think she has a hate for you because of this. She just simply does not want to be married at this moment," David says. Santana looks at him and nods.
"Of course sir," Santana says. She stands and walks over grabbing Brittany's barely eaten breakfast and grabs her drink before going to find the princess.
XXXXXXXXX
After searching for a while and finds her riding her horse Charity. Rachel is off to the side instructing her. As Santana gets closer she hears them talking.
"I don't want to be married Rachel," Brittany says.
"I don't see why, your father has been amazing in the area, most parents marry off their children as soon as they're of age. Is it Santana? Do you not like her?" Rachel asks.
"It's not that Santana is fine, I'm just not ready to be married," Brittany explains.
"Good, cause I was going throw a fit if you didn't like Santana. I mean she is gorgeous and have you seen her without her armor on?" Rachel questions.
"No, I haven't. Why?" Brittany asks stopping her horse to look at Rachel.
"Well her-"
"Brittany," Santana says as soon as she's close enough. Rachel shuts her mouth and blushes slightly hoping Santana didn't hear her.
"What are you doing here?" Brittany asks a little harshly in which she flinches at. Rachel looks at her in shock.
"I… I brought the rest of breakfast. You didn't eat much and thought you'd like to eat more," Santana replies holding up the plate and drink. Brittany suddenly feels guilt hit her chest.
"Yeah, I'd like that," Brittany murmurs. Rachel looks between the two and clears her throat.
"Well looks like lessons are done for the day. I must go check on Quinn now… uh Princess as always a pleasure and Knight Lopez good to see you," Rachel says bowing before running off. Brittany gets off Charity and grabs her reigns. She heads towards the stable and Santana follows.
They reach the stable and Brittany unclasps the saddle and is about to pull it off before Santana grabs her wrist.
"Allow me, you should eat," Santana says. Brittany feels a rush of electricity run through her arm.
"Thank you," Brittany whispers and goes to where Santana set the food on a barrel. Brittany takes and bite and watches Santana.
"I apologize if it's cold, you're a little harder to find than you'd expect," Santana says while she easily lifts the saddle up and sets in on the gate. She leads the horse into its stable area. She closes the gate and walks over to Brittany. Santana shifts uncomfortably on her feet while Brittany stares at her.
"Uhm, Brittany I want you to know that I would never force you to marry me or to do anything that you aren't ready for or do not wish," Santana says. Brittany finishes her food and stands.
"Well in the case I wish for you to remove your armor," Brittany says. Santana's eyes widen and her jaw drops.
"Pardon?" Santana chokes out.
"Take off your armor Santana."
I don't know… what do you think? Should I continue it? :/ Sorry for mistakes.
