Dave was talking with his father while he was eating.
"Where is your bride?" Paul asked Dave.
"She is still asleep." he told him.
"I need to speak to her. I want to know where Stephanie might be." Paul told him.
"Go and see if she is up." Dave said.
"Alright." Paul said and walked off towards Dave's room where Anna was.
He knocked and opened the door. Anna was sitting up in the bed. She had the sheets pulled up to her chest.
"Yes?" she asked him.
"I was wondering if you knew where Stephanie might be?" he asked her.
"No, I am sorry I do not. I saw her last at the banquet." she told him. She was telling the truth about Stephanie's whereabouts.
"Alright, thank you, and sorry to bother you your highness." he said, smiling.
"Bye, Paul." She said laughing.
Anna got dressed and was making her way to the dining hall.
"Anna?" Chris asked her. She turned to see him.
"Chris!" she said and hugged him.
"Morning, Anna, I was wondering if I might be able to talk to you this afternoon?" he asked her.
"Yes, meet me in the garden after lunch." she said.
"I will be there." he said as he went to do his walk of the grounds.
Anna walked in and ate with Dave. She was happy that it was over with, but she was getting used to her new place in life.
"Princess?" a servant asked her. She looked at them.
"Yes?" she asked them after realizing it was her.
"This is for you." he said as he gave her an envelope.
"Thank you." she said as they walked off.
She opened it and realized it was a letter from Stephanie. She quickly excused herself and went out side to read it.
Anna,
I hope that you are enjoying being princess. I hope that you get this the morning after your wedding. I am going to France. I will be queen of France. I wanted to tell you so badly, but I thought that you might be upset. I hope that we can remain friends, if we ever cross paths again. Your friend.
Stephanie.
P.S Give the other note to Paul.
Anna sighed. She hoped that Stephanie could be happy with John. She sure was not going to be able to.
Anna was walked back to Dave's room when she saw Paul.
"Paul, may I talk to you for a minute?" she asked him. He nodded and walked over to her.
"Here." she said and handed him the note.
Paul opened it and read it.
Paul,
I am sorry that I cannot be with you. I am going to be the king of France. I hope that you will find someone to love and who will love you back.
Stephanie.
He growled as he finished it and crumpled it up.
"You knew?" he asked Anna.
"She mentioned she was leaving, but not the she was going to France." Anna said.
"You could not tell me?" he asked her.
"Paul, she did not love you. You are better off to fall in love with someone instead of forcing them to love you." Anna told him.
"Dave did that to you and you did not run away." Paul said to her.
"I am not going to run away from my obligations." she shot back.
"I am an obligation?" Dave asked her. She looked at him and sighed.
"Come on. Paul, we will deal with France later today." Dave told him.
Dave dragged Anna to his room. Anna just followed him. She knew he needed to know the truth.
"Am I an obligation?" he asked her.
"Yes, in a way, you are." she said.
"Why?" he asked her.
"Because, Dave, you were not the person I truly wanted to marry." she said. Dave was now fuming with anger.
"What?" he asked her.
"I am sorry." she whispered. Dave slapped her across the face. He thought she was truly in love with him.
"Who are you in love with?" he asked her.
"No one." she said. She wanted to protect Randy.
"Liar! I know that you are in love with someone. I just need to figure out who." he said.
"Dave, please." she said as she approached him.
"Shut your mouth! You have nothing to say." he told her as he shut the door behind him.
Anna sat on the bed and sighed. She knew that any hope of a decent marriage was gone. He deserved the truth, but she hated to have to tell him.
