Teana's heart skipped a beat when the doors opened . The Throne Room was rather large and that meant a long walk from the doors to the actual throne of the king. At the other end of the throne room was Pharaoh Aknamkanon and his son-the soon to be husband of Teana. Teana noticed the Pharaoh first. She couldn't see him clearly, but he looked vaguely familiar. 'I must have met him before', she mused.

Then Teana saw him. Her fiancé. Prince Atem of Egypt. Her future husband. He did indeed have tri-colored hair, she could make that out from afar. He was tanned, like expected. Teana tried to make out his face, but squinting to see him better did not work.

The first thing that Atem noted when the doors opened was the fact that Teana was in fact, pale-skinned. Atem recognized her father from a distance right away. As they were approaching he noted vaguely how different his fiancé and her father were. For a split second, a rather bad thought crossed his mind. Could it be that Teana was the illegitimate daughter of the King's wife, or perhaps she was adopted? Then she wouldn't truly be of noble blood...

Atem shook that thought out of his mind. 'Stop assuming nonsense.' He told himself. When he came to look again he saw Teana and her father approach the thrones.

Atem and his father stood up. It was proper etiquette to meet visiting foreign royalty standing up. The two Egyptian came face to face with their guests.

Teana was able to see her fiancé better now as she was approaching them. Teana noted he seemed to be in great thought. 'Wonder what he is thinking about?' She noted that his eyes were an amethyst like crimson color. Truth be told, she thought his eyes were beautiful. She noted that he did have a well-built tanned structure, expected of an Egyptian prince.

His hair, oh his hair! It really was three colors in one! His hair was the most unique part to him. It was... crazy! It seemed to be defying gravity. It spiked up in different colors! His hair was divided into three layers. The back tips seemed to be magenta, with black colored hair making up a big portion of his hair in the middle and the rest of his hair was blond. His bangs were like blond lightning bolts and some of his blond strands were shot up into the air, defying gravity once again! How on Earth did he get hair like that?

Teana could not lie. He was pretty attractive.She had met her share of attractive men before, trying to woo her with their looks, gifts and riches, but none of them looked anything like Atem. Atem with his sharp crimson eyes, tanned well-built body, tri-colored hair. It was just so... different. She couldn't tell if she thought it was any more attractive than those gorgeous princes that she met, but it was very different.

As they approached the throne, the two royal Egyptians stepped down and met the two royal Nubians.

Atem studied his bride to be. Atem was surprised to realize that her pale-skin made her look very visually pleasing and make her skin seem luminous. The pale-skin wasn't unattractive at all! It rather suited her well.

She was attractive. Very attractive. No, she was gorgeous! She wasn't very petite, but she was well-shaped and thin. 'Beautiful she is.' Atem admitted. Atem noticed her eyes. They were a brilliant blue and they were big. They were like big pools of rivers. Bluer than the Nile itself.

Her shiny, long brown locks of hair swayed as she walked. The texture of her hair was so smooth and silky, very rare indeed in these parts. She was tall, even if she was wearing heels. Without them she would still be tall for a girl nevertheless. Luckily Atem was a bit taller than her with her heels on. Atem never understood how women could walk so gracefully in them. How did Teana walk so gracefully in them?

She was gorgeous, no doubt about it, but when she opened her mouth to speak; would he still find her attractive?

Ok, so I posted it a little more earlier than I usually do for you guys. Right now Atem and Teana haven't officially spoken to each other or talked, but I thought it was very important that I capture their first impressions about each other before they officially meet because those do leave an impact. Next chapter they actually meet and come in contact with each other! Excited? Whether you are or not... please leave a review on what you think! (Please no flames!)
