Nina
Next morning I found Cleo awake and crying. When I sat up I saw I had been moved to his room. I picked up Cleo and carried her out of the bedroom. I walked downstairs and outside to the courtyard. Clothes had been put on Cleo. I sat on the ground and started to breast feed.
"Hi mommys princess. I hope grandma and grandpa haven't lost hope yet." I said. My parents have to know I'm alive. I'm now 17. Been here a year.
"Nina." A voice said. I turned. Fabian. I got up and started to walk away. "I'm sorry okay!" He blurted.
"I don't wanna hear it." I said walking away with Cleo. She clung to my upper half still sucking.
"Nina help me out here." He said. I kept walking and feeding Cleo. She released and whined. I bounced her around.
"No." I said.
"A meeting is starting so we can plan out Cleo's life. If you want decision I suggest you come." He said. I nodded and followed him. A room full of people. I sat in a chair.
"Ths life of the young Cleo Rutter will be amazing. She will be the first empress by blood. are have found her husband, he is a royal who comes from good blood. Her coorination is at age 9. Marriage at 11." The advisor said.
"No." I said. Everyone looked at me. "You can't do that. I accept arranged marriage but my daughter will not get married at 11. Or queen at 9. She'd be a child." I said.
"Empress she will learn well." The advisor said.
"She'll learn to grow fast." Fabian said. "Besides we will help her make decisions." He said. I shook my head. I got up and left. If they think this is happening they have something else coming.
Having Cleo in power so young could be awful. People want to hear their royals. She'd be 9 and defenseless. I wouldn't bare to know that someone poision her.
Would I even have power over her? I would be her mother but her the boss. What about battle plans? Ugh this could never be good.
The marriage! I'm not married! And at 11. Oh I would give anything to have her home. Cleo would be great.
If she lived there she would get to live her life like a kid. Pampered. A little princess. She would have a marriage where a man fights for here hand. She would take the throne at 19-23.
I looked at her. She looked at me. I stroked her hair.
"Make mommy a promise. You will do what is best for Mommys home not the sperm doners. Get mommy home and coming with her. Making the evil emperor become our slave." I said. She smiled making a coo. "It's a deal." I said.
