Chapter 2: A Fated Meeting
Rin's big eyes blinked once. "Go on," her mother whispered, pushing her forward to the line of seven-year-old boys. She looked back for reassurance before stepping toward the boys.
Her mother spoke in a strong, powerful voice, "Choose any servant you want. They shall serve you from now till death separates the two of you."
It was Rin's birthday, and the sun was just rising over the horizon. Several purebloods stood in a rigid line, personally selected by the king and queen.
Rin tilted her small head of lustrous hair and surveyed the line. She walked forward with her hands clasped behind her back, stopping in front of a handsome young man with mahogany hair and eyes that stood a little more than a head higher than her. He bowed low so that his head was level with hers. Rin quickly pressed her lips to his cheek and stepped back as the servant fell unconscious.
The courtier straightened up and announced, "The princess has chosen her servant!"
Cheers erupted throughout the court as the little girl turned around with a bright smile on her face and walked out of the room with a light dance in her step.
