CHAPTER 1
"Beep Beep Beep"

My Alarm clock goes off and the sun is coming through my window I slowly awake to see the maids standing with a tray of food

" good morning Princess Rose" they bow and wait for me to sit up as I do my father walks in and they leave us alone

"Rose I have something important to tell you and I need to say it without you interrupting "

I nod my head and start eating the fruit that was placed before me

" It is arranged for you to marry sir William , the kingdom is in danger and with him by your side and as your husband he can protect you"

I gasp and spit out my food and look in shock

"How can this be father I can't marry sir William he is your best knight and captain of the guard"

he looks at me disappointed and walks out to the window as i clean up the mess i just made on my clean bed , he sighs in disproval and turns to face me

" You have no choice the wedding will be in two weeks , I am only doing what is best for you and the kingdom my darling Daughter"

he sighs and walks out of the room as i think about what he has said. married I can't be married although I have had a crush on William for along time but oh i don't know what to think at this point

I walk out to the terrace and i feel the warm sun hit my face, the wind blowing my blonde hair softly, I look towards the pasture and see William training with the other knights and i sigh deeply thinking that in two weeks we are to be married , it sends a shiver down my spine as i see him get on his horse and smile up at me

I quickly turn around and walk back into my room to change and look like a royal Princess.,

Soon after talking to my father about the marriage to William, I headed over to the castle garden to clear my mind a bit. The castle garden was a large, amazing place filled with many beautiful flowers and plants. I loved coming here to spend my time alone.

I was a bit surprised to see William standing near a bush of roses, looking like he was mumbling something to himself. I was wondering what it was he was mumbling, but I also saw him holding something in his hand. He had a bouquet of red roses, probably for me. I smiled a bit and decided to go and talk to him.

"Sir William?" I asked, and William quickly turned around, hiding the roses behind his back as soon as he saw it was me.

"P-princess. You know not to sneak up on me like that. In fact, what are you doing here? Didn't you have to go speak to the king about something?" William replied sounding a bit nervous. I was actually a little surprised. William was never normally this nervous. I gave him a smile, trying to tell him that he doesn't have to be so nervous.

"So, what are you doing out here all by yourself?" I asked. William looked around a little, almost like he was looking for some kind of excuse before revealing the roses from behind his back.

"I was getting these, for you." William answered with a bit of a smile. I smiled a bit, flattered that William had gotten the roses for me. I wasn't too sure what I should say, and I could tell that William was looking for an answer from me.

"Princess, are you alright?" William asked, but telling from the tone of his voice, he sounded more annoyed than worried. I nod in reply, and he just sighed a bit and shook his head, handing me the roses and starting to walk away.

"William, where are you going?" I asked, but he didn't answer me at all. He did seem pretty mad, so I had to just give him his space. At the same time, I was wondering where he was going.
