Note: Sorry guys I messed up on the second and third story, well not really but I just put down mother when the woman is really her godmother...sorry
"Your majesty, a woman is here to see you, she said she had information on when the princess will arrive." The man said to the king as he bowed.
"Send her in" The king said waving the man away. The man stood up and opened the camber door and spoke softly before he opened the door, to let the guest in. She walked in. Her hair the color of a sunbeam and her eyes a solid blue. The king pointed to a seat, in which she took after she curtsied.
"Your majesty, I have news on the princess." She told him.
"So I have been told" He retorted.
"She is in the kingdom and talking to the king." She told him with a wide grin. The king stopped and frowned as he thought over what she said. Then it hit him and he jumped from his seat and quickly made his way to her as she rose from her seat. He hugged her, and she felt her air constrict. He then pulled her away but not letting go of her shoulders.
"What is your name child? I only know of your mother." He told her. She smiled and nodded, showing him that she understood.
"My name is Mina." She told him.
Serena walked into her home two days later and saw her godmother staring at a letter in shock. Serena walked to her side and asked her what the matter was.
"The prince has invited us to the wedding" She replied in utter shock. Serena felt her heart rip at the news. Darien was to be married to another. Not her. She reminded herself over and over again. But either way a tear slipped from her eyes as she turned and headed to her room as quickly as her feet could. Once there she threw herself on her bed, as she sobbed. Her godmother knocked on the door.
"We have to go Serena, now" She ordered. Serena sobbed again. At the sound her godmother opened the door surprised at the sight of her daughter crying. She rushed to her side and rubbed her back as Serena sobbed.
"What is the matter dear child?" She asked softly.
"I can't go mother" Serena told her in between sobs.
"Of course you can child." She told her as if it was ridiculous
"No I can't mother, because I love him." She told her still sobbing. The godmother stopped rubbing the child's back at the comment. She was stunned once again today.
"Now Serena, the prince has invited you to his wedding, this showing that he cars for you Serena. I'm sorry about you heartbreak but we must go before the wedding starts" She told her.
"Why?" Serena asked.
"I have very important business at the kingdom. We must leave now" She told her getting up. Serena sat up and nodded okay. She smiled at the child and kissed her forehead before leaving her to pack.
Two days later, the day before the wedding, Serena was walking throw the market, looking for food for supper. Her godmother was trying to address the king about her property, or something of another. For the past two days her godmother has asked a audience with the king and repeatedly has been shot down. Serena didn't really know why her godmother was so determined to see the king when he won't see her. So Serena spent the days usually outside trying to forget why she was there, or inside crying about why she was there. Today she was outside and trying to keep a smile on her face, which was very hard to her. She stopped at herb vendor. She closed her eyes and smelled the spices. Each spice had they're own distinctive smell. That's When she felt a presence behind her.
"I didn't think you would come." said a husky voice that was full of anger. She flinched at the ton and turned around to face the man that held her heart. His eyes now cold as stone and his face showing as little emotion as he could. But he could hide his displeasure on seeing her. She dropped her face to stare at the ground.
"You did invite me didn't you?" She said back, with as much anger as he did.
"Ah, I did but only because I didn't think you would care enough to come." He told her. She clenched her fist at his remark.
"I don't and I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for my godmother, and the only reason she's making me go is because she has important business with the king." She told him walking away. He gritted his teeth at her retreating form and quickly followed her.
"How dare you walk away from me!" He bellowed as he grabbed her arm and forced her to face him.
"It is rude, I will admit" Said a soft voice from behind him. Serena looked at him in terror, wanting more than anything to be buried in the ground. But his expression surprised her. He closed his eyes gritting his teeth more, as a woman came to his side. She had long golden hair and solid blue eyes. If Serena knew better, woman could have been her twin or something. They looked so much alike. Darien let go of Serena's arm. Serena then bowed to the woman.
"I'm sorry about my rude behavior. I have to get home quickly; my godmother is waiting for me. It's was nice to see you princess." Serena said as she nodded and walked off. They left leaving Darien behind with Serena. Once they were out of sight she started to run to her hotel. Once there she threw herself on her bed and cried her eyes out. Darien hated her. He didn't even want her at his wedding. She felt herself slowly fall into a hole. Like she was as low as low can get, and she could never get out.
