"I don't love him father! I don't even know him! I refuse to see this through!" and that's that. thought Kally as she turned her back to her father, King Jonathan, and crossed her arms. Kally, now 16, had never wanted to be betrothed to anyone who she didn't love. And she never believed her father would make her. Now it seems that she was wrong.
"I'm sorry Kalasin. You have to marry Prince Jethro. It's in the alliance with the Copper Isles. This topic is not up for compromise."
"But, Father!"
"No buts, you will marry Jethro and that is that. Nothing you say can make me change my mind."
"Fine, if that's the way you feel." Kalasin stomped out of the room, bumping into her older brother, Roald. "Oooooooh I hate him. I don't know how you can stand him."
"You must be referring to Father. Kally, It's not that bad. He makes good decisions. Look at me and Chasikimi, he betrothed us and we are happily married. You underestimate him too much."
"I don't care, I'm not marrying that man from the Copper Isles. I simply refuse to and no one, not even you can make me change my mind." Kally pushed passed her older brother and stomped to her bedchamber. I HATE being a princess. Kally thought as she kicked away her old doll from her path. I just despise it! Sometimes I wish I could just pack up and leave this place. Go somewhere where I could make my own choices and do what I want to do. She looked at the doll she kicked. It was the first doll she had ever gotten. When she was still in her crib her father and mother had given this doll to her as a birthday gift. When she was 2 . . . . . "How I wish I could go back to being little." She thought aloud. " I wish I could go back to Pirates Swoop and play with Thom and all them and see Daine again when she healed the bird. Bt no, I can't I have to stay here and be pretty and act perfect. And impress fathers guests and be a puppet for his kingdom." She glared at the doll. "I wish-" a knock interrupted her. "Who is it?" she snapped at the closed door.
"Milady, T'is I, your humble younger brother." Called the voice from behind the door. "May I come in and gravel at your feet?" the voice continued.
"Liam," Kally sighed," Yes, you can come in." The door opened and in walked Liam, now a squire at the palace. "Hey Laim, what have you been up to? I haven' seen you around as often as I would've liked. Not that I could be around to much, what with Father ordering me around like I'm a servant."
"Ahh, now I understand your grumpiness, your highness. Father is arranging a marriage again for you and who is it this time? Tusaine? No no no, it's the Copper Isles. I remember, Prince Jethro. I hear he's quite a handsome man."
"Yes handsome and as think-skulled as any hair brained idiot would be."
"Oh, my poor little older sister, you have to realize that your prince charming is not out there and face the facts that your doomed to be sad and lonely, married to a rich, handsome man who will protect you from harm forever." Liam continued his mocking speech, standing up and lifting an arm for affect.
"Be quiet," snapped Kalasin, throwing a pillow at her brother, sending him laughing out the door. "Oooooh. Everyone is making me so mad today, I'm going to see Daine." She decided and walked out the door to see Daine at the stables.
"Daine? Daine? Where are you???" Kally called looking around the stables. "Daine? Are you here????" "Where is everyone?" Kally looked everywhere for her friend. Finally giving up and ended up getting her horse and riding away.
