Hey guys what's up? Yeah so here's my 3rd chapter and just to make it clear Stephan is older then Darien sorry when I first wrote the story I had Stephan be younger but it didn't make sense cause the oldest always rules the home country so I changed it a little. Oh and any one who is reading this and I like from England or Europe and like I got some stuff wrong please tell me. Well here it is.

Oh and italic writing is thoughts.

Endymion awoke with his sisters ice blue eyes staring down at him. She was angry he could tell. He rolled back over trying to go back to sleep.

" Oh I know your awake Darien! So don't try to fool me. It wont work." Clarissa said with annoyance. Her long black hair up in a tight bun her soft green dress had a few dirt stains on it.

He sat up and looked at her. " What have you been doing? Rolling around in the courtyard?" Endymion questioned.

" I was sewing on the grass with Lita and Amy. I don't see why it is any of your business." She said and sat on the edge of the bed.

" Why do you pester with them? They are truly little wenches." he got out of bed and went behind his changing curtain.

" They are not wenches they are countess's. And they are going to be my ladies in waiting." She rolled her eyes. " But I have not come to talk to you about that."

"Then what have you come to talk to me about?" He inquired emerging from the changing wall with his riding clothes on.

" Its about father…" she stared.

" What has he done this time?" He asked in annoyance.

" He thinks he can just ship me off to where ever he likes!"

" You are going in 5 years! Why are you dreading this now!" he said trying to prove a point.

" But my heart is not there, it lies hear." She said her voice consumed with sadness.

Oh yes. Gregory Charles Demott, the son of Author Demott Earl and Count of Appleton. How could she possibly love him? She is only 14! And how could he love her he is only 17.

" And what does this have to do with me?" he asked waving his hands in the air.

" I thought you could be able to talk to him. Persuade him to let me stay here."

" You know you shall only remain Princess. Stephan is going to be taking rule."

" I don't care about that! Please just talk to him. I beg if you." She said her head drooping.

" I… today is not a good.."

"No" she interrupted. " if you do not talk with him I shall tell mother and father that you bedded that whore of a maid. What's her name….Sarah! I will tell them you bedded her!" She hissed at him. Her eyes full of anger.

"You spied on me?!" he questioned. Anger in his eyes

" No you sick man! Like I said I was sewing with Lita and Amy and some of the other ladies and it is all gossip. You really should be more careful Darien. Or at least pick a maid who wont flaunt it around the castle." she said with sarcasm.

How can she go from sweet and innocent to melancholy to as hot as the fires of hell? I hope Serenity is a mute. Women should be seen and not heard.

" I shall try my best." He sighed in defeat.

Clarissa ran over to him and gave him a hug. " My thanks to you brother." she said and picked up her skirts and left the room.

Endymion walked over to the door that adjoined his room and what was soon to be his wife's temporary room. He had heard that she was beautiful, but still he did not wish to be wed. He was only 23 years old. But that wouldn't stop her from arriving in a month. She supposedly had a fire to her that was unlike any other but was very shy at times. To him Serenity sounded like a hassle something that would be bothering him forever.

He glanced once more at the door and then walked over and grabbed his black tunic and left walking down the hall the great stair case and watched as all the servants scurried around whisking that rugs and cushions and swept the floors.

" Sarah!" he beckoned threw the great room. As soon as he called a petite maid came walking up the stairs her long wavy brown hair was up in a tight bun with a white cap on top of it. Her dark chocolate eyes meet his.

" Sarah when your done down here I would like a bath drawn. And I will need you to assist me in some maters." He said giving a seductive smile for what he really meant.

" As you wish your Majesty." her low velvety tone replied.

He smiled has he watched her walk down the hall. He continued to walk down the stairs and out of the palace in to the stables to Shadowfaxes for a quick ride around the meadow.

As he rode around the country side he couldn't help but be glad that Stephan would be coming home in 3 weeks he had been gone for far to long.

Ok that's the end I know its really short but I promise the next one will be a lot longer and plus in the next chapter Serena and Darien meet! So love y'all!! Bye bye
