Chapter 10

Miley's POV

I open my eyes and I see that I'm outside with a huge piano. Wow that is amazing. I sit down on the piano bench next to him. He starts playing random notes and he plays a couple songs I heard before from when they have dances in the courtyard. He takes my hands and starts pressing on keys with my fingers. The sounds that the piano makes were much prettier in person instead of listening through a window. For a split second I didn't think I was in the palace under the rule of a king. I thought I was outside and free. Mind you I love my job now and I wouldn't change it for the world.

Princess Danielle's POV

I'm sitting by one of the windows in the common room and I see Prince Nicholas and his servant playing piano and giggling.

"Kevin, look at them." I say.

"Yeah, she makes him happy. He was never that happy until she came into his service. He was born into the strict regime of our grandfather. Our grandfather believed that we should not lift a finger and treat our servants poorly. There is a reason why the citizens called that the Dark Times." Kevin explains.

"He seems to be gentle with her. She seems to be happy with him." I state.

"Yeah. He told me that he loves her. I honestly wish he didn't have to marry Princess Selena. I really like you and I don't mind that my Dad chose you." I tell her.

"King Kevin, there is someone at the door who requests to see you. We searched him for strange material and everything. Please come to the foyer, but come alone." The servant says.

"Thank you Kingsly. I'll be there in a moment. Danielle please excuse me, I have to go deal with this." Kevin says.

"Certainly, Adieu King Paul Kevin." I state.

I sit down again and I start to think. What am I going to do about marring him? Well I guess I don't really have a choice since my father chooses who I marry. I do love Kevin, but I doubt that Prince Nicholas likes Princess Selena. I close the blinds and I go down the stairs. I go down to see Dad talking to Kevin.

"Good evening Father." I state as I bow down to him.

"Princess Danielle, we are to return home immediately then shortly there will be a marriage between you and Prince Paul Kevin." Dad says.

"Alright, Goodbye Prince Paul Kevin." I state as I bow down and leave him.

His servant opens the door and he gives me a quick smile before he returns inside. I sit in the carriage and I head back to my palace.

Joe's POV

Nick and Miley head upstairs to my room while I wait for the person to come up to meet me. The clock strikes 9 and she appears in my room.

"Good evening Prince Joseph. How may I assist you?" The servant as she goes to bow.

"You don't need to bow down." I tell her.

Suddenly Miley and Nick come into the room.

"Oh Salutations Demetria." Miley says.

Demetria or Demi, wow. Her name is almost as beautiful as her.

"Demetria, how would you like to become my new servant." I ask her.

She looks at Me and then to Miley. Miley gives her an encouraging smile.

"Yes. I will." She says nervously.

"Come with me and show me to your room, I am going to help you move into your new room that is situated next to mine." I state.

She looks at me awe struck and then we go down the stairs.

Nick's POV

We leave Joe's room and Miley starts to go downstairs.

"Where are you going?" I ask.

"I'm going downstairs to see Princess Isabella. She is crying." Miley says.

"I'll come down with you." I offer as we both head downstairs.

I see her go into the room and immediately start to calm down Isabella. Her interactions with her are so gentle and perfect. She holds her like Isabella was meant to fit into her hands. Wow she is such a motherly figure for her. She is sitting in the rocking chair feeding her with a bottle.

"You know you can feed her if you like." Miley says.

"No He can't! And neither can you! You Filthy Slave!" A maid yells.

"Elizabeth, that is enough. I can do what ever I like and so can she. She is my servant and I give her permission to hold the baby. Also you never call her a filthy slave again or I will tell my brother to exile you immediately!" I state boldly.

Isabella starts to cry and fuss.

"Shh, it's ok Isabella." Miley says trying to calm her down.

The maid leaves the room giving Miley a deadly stare.

"Don't bother with her. She is a maid with an attitude. If she causes you problems, just tell me and I'll have her exiled immediately." I tell her.

She merely nods and continues with the baby.

"Ah, Is she asleep?" Kevin asks as he slowly appears in the doorway.

"Oh Hello Kevin. Did Princess Danielle leave? Was she satisfactory to your loving tastes?" I ask.

"Surprisingly yes. She is the type of Princess who is laid back and supports the education of servants." Kevin says.

"Well that's good. When is she moving in here?" I ask.

"Well, if it all goes well, a month." Kevin states.

"Ah, Joseph has found a new servant. She seems kind." I state.

"A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W,X,Y,Z." Miley sings quietly.

"Her alphabet is truly improving. How is her writing?" Kevin asks.

"Alright. She can write all the letters and she can write her name." I explain.

"Wow. That is really good. I'll leave you two to talk. Please make sure Joe brings his servant to breakfast tomorrow morning. I would like to meet her." Kevin says as he leaves.

Miley gets the baby asleep and we leave the room quietly.

"Come Miley, I have some work for you to do." I state as we pass by a group of people in the hall.

Miley's POV

Inside I'm quite excited because when he says I have some work for you, it means he has some letters for me to draw or a book to read. I quickly get behind him and we go upstairs.

"Alright, I think your ready to try writing letters without me drawing them first." Nick says.

I look at him nervously.

"Do you think I can do it?" I ask.

"I don't think you can, I know you can." He encourage as he gives me a kiss on my forehead.

Nick's POV

Alright It's official,I love her. She is perfect. She smells like a bunch of fresh roses and acts so kind and gentle.

"What the heck is "She" doing?" Someone asks.
