Princess Jade West's POV
"Betrothed. Betrothed .Betrothed I've said it a hundred times but still it sounds weird," I said to my personal maid, Cat, who was brushing my hair. Cat looked at me and smiled.
"It should be your dream you're getting married to Prince Beckett Olive, and soon you'll be Queen Jadelyn Oliver. It's every girl's dream to be an Oliver, and you've wanted to get married ever since you were two" Cat squealed in excitement. I smirked I knew she was in love with the Oliver family's servant Robbie Shapiro.
"Yes but that was when I thought it was an option, now it seems as if I don't I will have be thrown in the dungeons, It's as if I don't have a choice anymore," I said to Cat. She smiled at me and said
"If you need any help, I'm always here," Just as she said that an idea popped into my head.
"Take my place as queen," I said to her. Her face showed a look of horror and confusion. Claiming yourself as part of the Royal Families, when you're not, can cause you to be killed.
"What do you mean Princess Jade?" she asked with her innocence filled voice.
"You know how we both are traveling to Prince Beckett's kingdom, to make accommodations to the Palace so we can live there? Well you could pretend to be me and spend some time with the servant Shapiro boy, while I annoy Beckett!" I said with excitement. I am amazing.
"What good will that do you?" she asked. Tsk tsk naïve Cat.
"He won't want to marry someone with a mean personal maid and when he finds out the affairs between you and Shapiro . . . well he might have the two of you betrothed," I said reasoning with the child like-minded maid.
She finally nodded in defeat.
"Please calm down, nothing bad can ever happen!" I said reassuring her.
"Prince Beckett was going to wish he wasn't born. I have always hated people like him, too narcissists, self-centered, and smug," I complained to Cat about the Prince.
"Princess Jade! Prince Beckett has a heart of gold!" Cat said to me.
"Yes? Well so does a hardboiled egg," I replied and marched down to the Throne Room where Father Dearest, who was currently talking to some of his most, trusted advisors.
"Ahh! There is my lovely daughter!" He said cheerfully. My Father had always loved me unconditionally, no matter what.
"Father with all respect I was hoping Cat and myself could departure for Prince Beckett's kingdom later this evening?" I asked. He rubbed his chin for a few seconds before clapping his hands twice. A few moments after clapping 4 servants came.
"Get ready for Jadelyn and Catherina's trip to the Oliver Kingdom," My Father said.
Prince Beckett get prepared for the worst 7 days of your life.
