Hey, me again I just wanted to deeply apologise for such a short chapter last time. I just didn't have time and wanted to update before my Wi Fi ran out. Actually, I have to wait til the 25th of May for it to restart so now am kind of using my schools Wi Fi to update. I said that the previous chapter would feature Rebekah but I am certain that this chapter will be long enough for you guys, and will revolve around their meeting.
And just so you guys know Tyler will appearance but it is going to be only a few chapters the have him in it.
I really hope you like it! And I love your reviews but please I crave for some suggestions because I almost always get some case of writer's block.
Anyway, Ta Bekk
Please Do Enjoy!
"The trumpets blared a familiar tune and the carriage travelled up passed a fountain. The first thing she sees is their village folk standing in a line holding basket of food like fruits and bread. She thought that the horses might be starved but was pulled from her thoughts when the carriage came to an abrupt stop"
The carriage jolted forward and the wheels stopped suddenly, catching the princess off guard Caroline then realised that she had arrived. There awaited standing was a man and what Caroline made out to be possibly his daughter.
Mikael stood strong next to his only daughter as the hand maiden got out and opened the door before a beautiful blonde stepped out. His family had waited over a month for the King of France to issue his daughters' arrival; He mentioned that she was very reluctant about moving to England. But most apprehensive about their families joining because of her marriage an arrange marriage in fact.
The King of England had announced her arrival a few weeks prior in order to get his kingdom ready, His daughters' seventeenth birthday gala should be exquisite and he had invited the princess to attend. Mikael had chosen the oldest of his sons and the second youngest to woo her in order to proceed into the marriage. Henrik was too young to get married and Niklaus was not worthy of marrying an heir of one of his alias, he was not his true son just a worthless commoner that he chooses to have live under his roof.
Rebekah was dreading meeting this girl who supposably going to marry one of her brothers, if the princess was to wed than she would have to know their families' secret and she knew that her father would make her become a monster that they were. Rebekah didn't have friends that were girls she didn't like them much. Her thoughts of this one princess were that she would be fake, two faced, stuck up and stupid. But the judgmental princess was going to be proved totally wrong.
The Blonde Beauty stepped out of the vehicle and her maiden curtseys before she walks over to the village people, takes two apples then retreats to the horses before she continues to feed them the fruit. She thanks the driver and he kisses her knuckles as she bows. As the princess walks softly over to the Royal subjects Mikael puts on his only smile to greet the beautiful girl.
"Your majesty, I'm honoured to welcome you to my kingdom, I wish you the best in your future here" He stated bowing his head to kiss her knuckles.
"My lord, you home is very beautiful, but I would enjoy my time here a lot more if you would just simply referred to me as Princess or Caroline" she curtseys
"As you wish Princess," Mikael smiled "I would like you to meet one of my siblings, this is my beautiful daughter Rebekah, I am certain you two ladies will be the best of friends"
"Pleasure, I am sure," Rebekah fakes a smile
"Princess, I am delighted to attend your ball tonight," Caroline starts "I here believe it will be magnificent and Happy Birthday to you."
Rebekah smiled. Maybe this girl will be at least tolerable to have around. It's not as if she will survive anyway, no reason to get attached she thought. The Princess before Rebekah was beautiful; she had big bright sea blue eyes and golden locks that fell down her shoulders. Her slender frame stood out and she had a nice bust which must be appealing to most men.
Rebekah had big green eyes, stunning pale blonde hair. She was also slender but was petite. Her skin tone was a slight olive colour as Caroline on the other hands was a pale ivory but yet still equally beautiful.
"Thankyou, did you want to walk with me our maids will carry your luggage," Rebekah suggested
"Yes I will walk with you, as for my belongings there is really no need," Caroline stated "I don't mean to be rude but I would rather do it myself, because if anything was to break it would be my fault and I don't see why anyone should be punished over me,"
"Of Course Princess, but I do insure that my men are truly capable of delivery your stuff to your chambers safely, and if there was anything tarnished you could punish them as you see fit?"
Caroline took a few moments to think it over. She really didn't want strangers carrying her stuff just in case they took a peak into her belongings. But she nodded agreeing with the king wanting to make a good first impression of course, she did not want to come across as rude or ungrateful.
She bid farewell to the king before Rebekah linked her arm with hers , as they began to walk around the front garden together. Caroline wasn't sure if the other girl was being fake or not like she was assigned to look after Caroline. But Caroline didn't mind one bit anyone is company.
"So which one of my dear brothers do you think is worth pursuing?" she blurted out as they walked to sit on one of the nearby seating benches.
The question caught Caroline off guard. All of the Mikaelson sons had good looks because of the photographs she had seen or mostly paintings but she wasn't the type of woman who just picks a man over his appearance, she would have to get to know them first.
"Um honestly, I do not wish to pursue any of your siblings because I do not believe that this arranged marriage is right." Caroline admitted.
Now Rebekah was the girl surprised by her statement. "Well that would be a first of many." Her brothers always had women drooling over them . Some of them were pretending to be her friend just so they could get closer to them.
Caroline sniggered at the statement. "Well I'm not like most ladies, I like charm, charisma and intelligence not boring, snobby men."
Rebekah smiled she was beginning to like this girl but so would never admitted, they would have to compel it out of her. "What are you saying? Looks do not matter," she questioned a smirk playing on her lips.
Caroline smiled cheekily at her. "no they don't, but if some smart, charming man walked into the street I would certainly do a double take," Caroline explained "Looking is fine, I just would not touch until I had known of him better,"
Rebekah nodded in agreement and the two princesses fell into a silence. Rebekah did not know what to say she really didn't have long conversations especially other women, she had had a few odd meaningful talks with her brother Nik but that was it. The princess would usually get the point.
"So do you have any special hobbies, talents? Anything like that," Caroline asked trying to build conversation. She liked talking rambling mostly, her friends usually had to stop her from going to one subject to a completely different one.
"Me talents? If you count shopping or fashion sense a talent then sure," Rebekah said laughing. This girl was trying to start conversation. She thought she would at least try. "What about yourself?"
Caroline shrugged. "Nothing really, I like the odd swordplay, and I can play piano,"
"Pet Peeves?" Rebekah asked before answering first "What I find so up most annoying is when men have really bad breath or odour it drives me insane ,"
Caroline laughed at that. "There was this one poor but ruthless homeless man just outside the castle, and his feet smelt so bad that my father the king actually had to dispose of him by throwing him feet first in the quarry, It was the funniest but the most refreshing memory of my life,"
"You think that is funny, my brother Kol played a prank on my older brother Niklaus. So Nik got back at him by putting horse manure in his tooth brush, undergarments and shoes it was hilarious, yet Kol is so vain that he was convince that it was somebody else but the stench kept following," Rebekah laughed holding her stomach.
Caroline threw her head back in laughter her laugh was the most gorgeous, rich laugh, just by hearing it would make you smile. Both girls kept talking and generally bonding when Henrik came running from one of the arches that led into a passage towards the main courtyard. He had a giant smile on his face.
"Sister! Sister!" Henrik exclaims "Kol and Elijah are fencing, it is spectacular! Come?!"
Caroline recognised the boy from the photograph his slick jet black hair. Caroline was astounded. Rebekah got up and glared at her younger brother for his rudeness.
"Henrik, this princess Caroline Forbes," Rebekah gestured to Caroline "Princess this is Henrik Mikaelson my youngest brother,"
The boy looked at his sister than at Caroline and stood in awe, she was truly stunning. Henrik leant forward and kissed the back of her hand. "Hello Henrik, would you mind if I came to watch as well?"
He just nodded vigorously and gulped a yes out. Caroline thought he was very sweet as the princesses followed the small boy through the passageway and up a few steps. His paced quickened obviously excited to get there, Caroline lifted her sand wood brown coloured dress so she wouldn't trip.
In the courtyard was Niklaus standing against an arch with a smirk on his face while watching his two brothers fighting with swords before him. Niklaus had told his youngest brother to go fetch his sister for more of a crowd.
The siblings always loved watching each try and prove who is more dominate. Elijah and Nik would always be the last standing. Kol had always been to cocky and sure of himself that he got distracted trying to think of a snide remark.
Kol was currently in the lead but he knew it. Elijah took that to his advantage as Henrik comes bolting up the stairs with Rebekah in toe and then the most extraordinarily beautiful girl Niklaus was ever going to lay eyes on after that moment her hair glowed like gold at the peak of the stairs where a big ray of sunlight appeared. She didn't notice him at all, but Kol certainly notice her. He was so distracted that Elijah swooped the sword under his knee caps as his footing gave way Elijah pointed his iron sword at his neck. "Surrender Peasant,"
Henrik started laughing Rebekah too. Caroline smiled a little too but there was a slight redness of her normally rosy cheeks. Her smile faded when she realised the man who had won had a red stain along his forearm she knew he hurt himself. "Oh my Goodness, You are injured are you okay?!Does it hurt?" Caroline rambled as she stood in front of the man already holding his arm in her palms. He smirked "I assure you, that I am perfectly well," He said his accent made him come across as friendly.
"I am fine darling, thankyou for your concern." Kol got up dusting his slacks off with his hands,
"I am Elijah Mikaelson, I welcome you into our home and into my family," He said kissing her hand
"I welcome you into my bed princess," Kol offers as Elijah scowls at him " I am Kol Mikaelson pleasure is all mine,"
Elijah bumped him " why is it that you have to be so rude, where does it get you," he almost yells at him.
"It is okay Prince Elijah, I am sure your younger brother was only kidding," Caroline said sweetly "It is a pleasure to meet you both,"
"I am sure it was, with my fencing skills and all," Kol answered cheekily
Rebekah rolled her eyes and Niklaus smiled before walking towards the beautiful creature. Caroline didn't noticed him before now. "I believe that you are becoming too cocky of yourself brother,"
Caroline turned to the sudden deep accented voice "My name is Niklaus but you love, can call me Klaus ,"
How was that?
Did I keep up my end of the bargain?
