CHAPTER 1: WHAT? MY FATHER? THE KING?

APOV

I had never been afraid of planes, but as I hugged Phil right now I realized how much fear I had of actually going in it. It wasn't exactly because of the flight or the height – those I could handle – what I couldn't handle was the knowledge that once this plane took off, we were never coming back, this was our destiny, our future and our duty. I guess that all of this must sound strange to you; I mean you don't even know me or my story, so let me tell you about it for a little.

My name is Alice, I'm 14 years old and I live in California with my mom Renee, her husband Phil and my sisters Bella and Rose. My sisters and I are triplets but we are total opposites. Rosalie is tall and has wavy blonde hair to the middle of her back, she has the body of a model and light brown eyes, Bella is a little taller than me but still short, she too has a great body, she has wavy dark brown hair the same length as Rose and her eyes are a shade darker, I'm the short one of the three, pixie like if you want, my hair is short and spiky and my body is amazing like my sisters', my eyes are a dark brown color, almost black.

If you think that our differences are purely physical you couldn't be more mistaken, our attitudes were even worst. Rose is the strongest one, she never lets anything bring her down, she doesn't get hurt because she doesn't even give people the opportunity to get near her and she can be a total bitch if she wants, Bella is a little bit more open but she refuses to believe in love while Rose and I are hopelessly romantics, she is really strong too especially when Rose needs us, she really likes to be on charge though and she is very bitchy too, well the three of us are but only when needed, Bella also loves to listen to music and read, she says its relaxing. My sisters say that I'm the spark of the house, they also say that I am like a little pixie because I'm really bouncy and full of energy and short too, its nearly impossible to be angry with me and people are always gravitating towards me, apparently my happiness is contagious, I'm the most open of the three but also the most sentimental, I get hurt too often – much to my sisters' dismay.

Well the reason we were boarding a plane is that my mom Renee passed away a couple of days ago, I remember the day clearly.

Flashback

My sisters and I were getting ready for school and, my mom was supposed to be doing breakfast, we had been discussing on the color for today – we dress the same color but in our own styles – when we heard a crash downstairs. We immediately dropped the clothes and raced to where the sound had been; the kitchen. When we entered I heard someone gasp but I don't really know who, after that the details became fuzzy – apparently my mind its protecting itself from the shock – the only things that I remember are that an ambulance came and took her to the hospital, the doctors told us that she had died from a heart attack, we didn't even knew that my mom was sick, she was always very chirpy, her attitude almost like mine, a little childish and impulsive but she was never the weak one. Bella says that we never knew because we saw her like wonder woman, always protecting us and putting herself after us. She was the best, her funeral was the next day and it was full but we didn't had any family in there – besides Phil – because my grandparents had died a couple of months before. What surprised us is that when we arrived from the cemetery a woman was waiting for us and asked to talk to Phil, hours later they came upstairs and handed us a letter with my mom's last wishes, the letter was like this;

My beautiful daughters:

If you are reading this it means that I died, I want you to know that you are the best thing that ever happened to me and that I don't regret anything I did for you, but I think that its time for you to know the real story. Remember when you where kids and you liked to play princess dress-up and that I used to tell you that one day you will grow up and you'll marry your prince charming. Well those words are true and not in the figurative sense.

My real name is Renee Swan Brandon Hale – not Renee Dwyer – I was born in the royal family of Georgia, I was forced to marry your father when I was 18 years old, his name is Charles Swan Rhodes Miles the Third; king of England, that my dear babies makes you princesses of both countries. I ran away after you were born because I didn't wanted you to live the way I did, the life of a princess may sound glamorous but it's anything but. I wanted you to be able to have a normal childhood and to give you the opportunity to choose who you'll marry in the future, instead of being forced into arranged marriages, I wanted to give you the opportunity to make your own mistakes and not force you into someone else's. I just wanted the best for you, your happiness.

If I'm telling you this right now is because I decided to send you to your father in England, I have no doubt that Phil would be a great father, but I'm looking for what's best for you, you can't use your money until you're 18 and I'm sure that Charles would be able to give you anything you might need, you are finally fulfilling your dream of being real princesses, no more games, this is the reality. Your grandma and I have been training you for a while, in case your father died and England needed a ruler, that is the reason why you used to spend your summers in Paris and learning 3 course meals. It was all for your future, I was sure this day was going to arrive, and it did sooner than expected. In a few days you'll be moving to another continent and I want you to know that I'll be there with you every step of the way, encouraging you and pushing you for the best.

I love you my little princesses and I'm so proud of you, I'll always be there.

Love Mom.

End of Flashback

When we finished that letter we were all crying, I've never seen my sisters cry so much but I guess that the shock of the news and the knowledge that this was the last thing she wrote for us before dying was just too much. We immediately started packing our things and now here we are about to leave a plane that will take us to our new house. I was shaken out of my thoughts by my sisters calling my name.

"Alice sweetie, are you okay?"

"Yeah it's nothing Bella, just thinking" I should have know that they weren't going to drop the subject; they know me too well to tell that something big is bothering me.

"That's stupid Al, we know something's bothering you so you better tell us what it is" that is exactly the reason that I love Rose so much, she's so damn pushy

"It's nothing Rose really, I was just thinking about mom" her faces fell instantly and I knew that this was as hard for them as it was for me; our mom's death is the worst thing that could have happened to us.

"I know that this is hard Ali, but we promised to let her go, that was the pact we made when we left Cali, remember? We promised to start fresh, ok, a clean break sweetheart, I know it's hard but we have each other, right?" I grabbed their hands before assuring them

"Yeah girls, Remember? Together forever, doesn't matter what"

"Obviously, besides how are we supposed to make guys fall at our feet if we are all depressed and shitty" Rose tried to take the conversation to lighter grounds and that's how we spend the rest of the flight, joking about boys and imagining our new life as princesses.

BPOV

Upon arriving to the airport I could feel my sisters anxiety building up, we were going to met our father for the first time ever and well he is the king of England, we have no idea what awaits for us at his house – our new house. On the front doors there was a limo with a man holding a sign that said our names, we approached him and introduced ourselves.

"Hello" Rose was trying to be nice to the man but apparently he didn't took the hint because he didn't even glance her way when he spoke

"Good Afternoon, is there something you might need girl, because I'm really busy right now"

"Well I really thought father would send someone nicer for his little girls; Bella, Alice remind me to tell daddy to get me another driver as soon as we arrive home, please" finally the man looked at us and the look on his face was pure, unadulterated shock. We must have been described to the people that worked in the castle because he immediately started apologizing.

"Oh God, I'm so sorry Princess Rosalie, please –" Alice cut him before he could complete his apology

"Save it, we don't care" he shut up and opened the door of the limo and we got inside without another word; yup already acting like spoiled princesses. The inside of the limo was like every other one so my sisters and I spend the entire trip to the castle staring at the view outside and gossiping about anyone and everyone. The castle on the other side was totally gorgeous.

It was in the middle of a beautiful blue lake, the walls were cream-colored and looked like hey could be thousands of years old, every single piece of land was covered in grass and every window in the castle had a gorgeous view, the castle was divided in three parts, the South building – named after Rosalie – the North Building – named after Alice – and the Northwest Building – named after me – I actually think we were named after the buildings but anyways; all the castle was protected by two meters high walls and guards, I think that the king of England must need protection, right? If I thought that the outside of the castle was gorgeous then the inside was breathtaking. It was all painted in white but the parlor was full of paintings and pictures from the royal family, my mom was in a lot of them and there was also one from when we were born. It had a huge staircase made of mahogany just in front of the double doors and a chandelier hanging from the roof, all the furniture was either made from marble or mahogany. We were looking at the picture from our birth when a voice broke trough the peace of the castle.

"I think we might have to make up for the lost ones" I turned around just to find myself staring at the king of England, my father; to say we were speechless would have been an understatement "Hello, my name is Charles Swan Rhodes Miles the Third or Charlie, dad works too if you wish" his British accent was thick and his smile contagious. Charlie looks a lot like Alice but tall and with brown hair like mine, seeing no response from us he started talking again and walking towards us "So, aren't you gonna give at least a hand shake to your father, after all I don't meet my supposedly long dead daughters everyday" Alice was the first one to react and immediately hugged him, next Rose and at the end me.

"Sorry about earlier, there are just too many things in so little time; it's overwhelming; can we start over?" Char – I mean my dad nodded and Ali continued "Heyy dad, my name is Alice and these are Rosalie and Bella" she motioned to each of us and we gave him another hug.

"Well its so nice to finally meet you, I've been hoping for this day for almost fifteen years" he smiled at us and motioned for us to follow him "let me show you your rooms" we trailed behind him and the house actually took my breath away "we were going to put your rooms in each of your buildings but we thought that you girls would prefer to be together so you are going to be in the main building, the northwest one – or Bella's – and your rooms are connected by a door" we arrived to the front of three doors and three maids opened the rooms "pick one"

The rooms were incredibly gorgeous; the first one had a black frame bed on the floor, very low and modern. With hot pink silk sheets. The walls were also hot pink with little mirror mosaic pieces scattered along the walls. The floor was black parquet floor. The bed was so large it could fit at least ten people on it. Above the bed was a large painting in black and white of Rose, Alice and I laughing when we were in Paris at a little café that had been at my grandma's since it was taken.

"I call this room" I yelled to my sisters, they ran in and gasped; after seeing mine they left to inspect the other rooms, seconds later I heard Alice yell

"THIS ROOM IS TOTALLY MINE!"

Her room had baby pink walls with a large white princess bed. The floor was light parquet with a thick white carpet. The curtains were layered in different shades of baby pink and white. It was Alice's style.

"OMG! Guys come on, look at this" I looked at Alice and we both ran to the other room

The third and last room was all red. The walls were red with some cursive script in maroon on top. The bed was a gold metallic frame with black sheer curtains over it. The comforter was gold with red stitching and red pillows. The floor was the same black parquet just like my room. Her curtains were blood red with black under them. It was glorious and vixen like just like Rosalie.

"Oh God, guys these rooms are perfect for us"

"Well Rosalie it is because they were made especially for you" we turned to the door and Charlie was standing there watching us "I ordered them when you were born, your names and your personalities as babies inspired this rooms and you just picked the ones that were meant to be yours"

"Thanks dad, they are truly perfect" we all hugged him and said thanks

"You're welcome Alice. I'll give you girls some time to unpack, see the castle and get ready, we'll have dinner at eight and there's a special guest I want you to meet"

"Thanks dad, we'll see you at dinner… ummm dad what do we have to wear for dinner exactly?" Rose was right we have never been to a special dinner, so we had no clue; my dad thought for a minute and answered her

"Well Rose, what do you girls normally wear for dinner?"

"Oh daddy that's easy, we normally wear sweats or pajamas"

"Alice hon, why would you wear your pj's to dinner"

"Well dad…mom wasn't much of a cook so we usually just made sandwiches or something easy and we ate in our rooms" my dad chuckled and muttered 'go figure'

"Well girls we can't let you wear your pj's to a dinner with the queen of France, can we?" we gasped and Alice was the first one to recover, much in Alice's style

"OH MY GOD, REALLY AS IN QUEEN ESME!" my dad nodded and she squealed, Rose and I were left speechless. "OF COURSE WE WONT WEAR PAJAMAS"

"That's what I thought…In the south building there's a room full of clothes for this kind of events, I'm pretty sure you guys will be able to find something suitable… it's in the second floor above my study" we nodded and he left

"Bella hon, is there something wrong?" I knew Rose would eventually ask, she noticed me being silent and that jus meant that I clearly wasn't ok

"No Rose, it's just too much for one day… I guess" I sighed and they really looked worried "I'm okay girls I just figured this would be really different" a white lie wouldn't hurt right, no need to upset them, telling them that I wish we weren't here but home…

"How so Belly?" Alice used my childhood nickname to cheer me up but not even that worked much.

"I don't know I figured my dad was going to be all over us, ya' know like all…" I was at loss of words, something that rarely happened but I settled for the most self explanatory "fatherly"

"I'm sure it's nothing Bella; he mustn't be one to show emotions, that's all"

"You're right Rose, why don't we forget about this and go to figure out this place?"

"HELL YEAHH!" Alice grabbed our wrists and took off running

We wandered through the castle for a while and it was truly breathtaking, it seemed like from a fairy tale; I felt like I was in that movie I think its called 'Princess Diary', like a normal girl swapped off of reality to be brought to learn to be a princess, the only difference was that we were already amazingly good looking. Every time we passed by someone they would bow to us like in old times and it was making us really uncomfortable.

"Girls remember me to tell dad to order them to stop doing that, it's kind of creeping me out" I laughed and joked with them

"Well Alice, you just might want to add that to Rosalie's request for daddy" Rose punched me lightly in the arm and laughed

"Bella's right Rose, I didn't know that you had practiced how to be a spoiled princess, I mean daddy, really?"

"Hey stop it, he was being an ass, hadn't he noticed that I was trying to be nice?" that just made us laugh harder

"Rose I don't think everyone will guess in here when you are being nice and when not"

"Probably Bell, but they'll learn eventually"

"I'm already sorry for them" Rose punched us lightly and we kept walking in a comfortable silence, the sun was starting to set and we decided to head to Alice's building – strange, right? – When we arrived Rose remembered that she had to go to pick her cell because she left it charging and she told us that she'll be back in a while, we offered to go with her but she refused, Rose can be so stubborn at times.

RPOV

Upon arriving to Alice's Building I suddenly remembered that I had left my cell charging on my bedroom

"Heyy girls, I have to go back to the main tower, I left my phone there"

"Do you want us to go with you Rosie?" my sisters were always so nice but there was really no need to waste time in going all back

"No Bells, it's alright, it'll just take a sec, I'll be right back" as soon as the words left my mouth I took off running, there was no need for a fight with them now, it will just end up in me going alone anyway. I ran all the way back to my room – I had great stamina – and found my cell on my bed stand charging. I checked on my inbox and it read 'YOU HAVE 14 MISSED CALLS' OOPSS! Remember me not to leave it next time. When I was on my way back to the place where my sisters were, I decided to go to my dad's study to let him know where we'll be, I stopped dead in my tracks outside of the door when I heard him talking to a woman.

"I'm telling you Esme, they will be perfect for each other" what the hell is my dad talking about with the queen of France

"Did you already tell them what I'm here for Charlie?" Told who?

"Well not exactly, but I'll tell them tonight at dinner"

"Don't you think that your daughters at least deserve to know that they'll be meeting their mother – in – law?" WTF! I couldn't believe my ears

"Esme, their mom just died and they were sent to fly to another continent, they don't need to know that they're engaged to your sons" WAIT! ENGAGED TO WHOM! I couldn't listen anymore, I ran as fast as my feet took me to where my sisters where, when I arrived I was out of breath

"Rosalie, what's wrong? You look like you just run a marathon"

"Alice shut up" I took a deep breath and tried to explain them everything without freaking out "girls you won't believe what I just heard"

"Well, tell us" I sometimes forget how B and I are so alike, always so antsy

"Okay I was making my way here but I decided to tell dad where were we going to be so I went to his study first but I heard him talking with Esme –"

"Wait, Esme as in Queen Esme of France?"

"Yes Alice, that Esme, anyways I was curious to what they were talking about so I decided to listen to them –" again I was cut off but this time by Bella

"Rose I can't believe you eavesdropped on my father, that's so not nice" I was really exasperated, this was important

"Would you two stop interrupting and listen, its really important" they nodded and motioned for me to continue "Okay so as I was saying I was making my way here but I decided to tell dad where were we going to be so I went to his study first but I heard him talking with Esme – and yeas Alice, Queen Esme – so I was curious to what they were talking about so I decided to listen to them – yes I eavesdropped Bella – and I heard them saying that tonight we were going to meet our mother – in – law commonly known as Esme" it took a few seconds for the words to sink in, but when it did they gasped. They both shouted

"WHATT?"

"What you heard, apparently we are secretly engaged to Esme sons"

"OH NO NO NO, I'M NOT GONNA MARRY SOMEONE I DON'T EVEN KNOW… IS CHARLIE INSANE" Bella was pacing all around the room and shouting, she was really angry "I KNEW THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG, HE COULDN'T BE LIKE THAT, THERE HAD TO BE SOMETHING, I KNEW THAT WE SHOULDN'T HAVE COME HERE, I JUST KNEW! ARGH!"

"BELLA!" Alice grabbed her by the waist and hold her still "listen to me, we wont marry okay, this was what my mom meant in her letter, but he's wrong, you'll see we'll find a way to get out of this one"

"Yeahh, and how do plan to do that Alice, huh?"

"Well I don't know Rose, but we'll think of something" we were thoughtful for a few but Bella came up with the best idea and that will leave us time to think about everything.

"I know" she motioned for us to get closer and we complied "how about we skip dinner with our mommy – in – law and go to the garden to have it instead'

"Bella, how do you plan on getting out if dinner?" a mischievous and wicked grin spread on her face and she answered

"Well Alice, we will tell one of the maids to bring food for us and she'll tell dad that we fell asleep because we were tired or something, we do have an excuse after all"

"Hey that could actually work, ya' know like jet lag or something and we'll 'apologize' in the morning when we will hopefully have a plan"

"Of course, LETS DO THIS GIRLS!"

And we exactly just did that, a really friendly and young maid packed a basket with food for us and on dinner time we climbed down the balcony – on the fourth floor, I must add – and left to the gardens. The maid told Charlie that we were really tired and had fallen asleep without even unpacking and that she didn't want to wake us up. Surprisingly he believed her because no one came looking for us, we spent the rest of the night plotting against our newly acquired engagements and we came up with some really imaginative ideas, we didn't knew what my dad had on mind but we could surely take anything down. As long as we were together nothing will defeat us, I just hope that my mom is watching us and looking out for what's better like she said. And let's pray that we aren't making our biggest mistake ever…
