Chapter 2
16 years later….
Bella sat on a seat in front of a mirror in her bedroom while the maids were busy fixing her hair for the day.
She sighed impatiently. 'They never let me do anything for myself.'
"What's wrong Princess?" One of her maids asked.
"Nothing. Everything is perfectly fine. I just wish that you would let me fix my own hair once in a while."
"Princess you know why you can't. Your Father won't allow it."
Isabella sighed again. "I know that."
Ever since Bella was small her Father had ordered the maids to do everything for Isabella.
Bella understood as to why he told them to do it.
He was just being overprotective of her.
He had told her that her Mother had mysteriously disappeared when Bella was a baby and they couldn't find her whereabouts.
Bella knew that her Father didn't want to lose anyone else so that was why he had ordered the maids to do everything for her.
"You look beautiful today Princess." Esme said.
Bella smiled. "Thank you Esme."
After the maids had finished with her hair Bella walked into the throne room and sat down next to her Father King Charlie.
"Good morning Father." Bella said.
"Good morning Isabella." Her Father replied as he looked her over. "Your maids did a good job today as always. You look beautiful."
"Thank you Father."
"Hello there Princess." Someone said from behind her.
Bella jumped and turned to see that a boy was standing behind her.
He had short bronze hair, creamy white skin and emerald green eyes.
Bella smiled. "Hey Edward."
Edward was Bella's best friend in the castle.
They did everything together.
Her Father trusted him with Bella so he keeps the maids away from them when Edward is around.
Edward was also the one person where she could just be herself around him.
Edward looked to King Charlie and bowed. "Hello your Majesty."
The King nodded back at Edward. "Good to see you Edward."
"And you as well." Edward replied.
"Father can Edward and I take the horses out today?" Bella asked.
King Charlie nodded. "As long as you are with Edward then it is fine with me. Don't go out to far and don't go out for too long understood."
Edward and Bella nodded together.
