(AN: hey guys im sorry for the lack of updates. My computer stopped working and thankfully now that it's working I can give you an extra long chapter. Haha I just start reading and next thing I know there's already 1000 words. Hopefully that will make up for not updating. Im not always going to write this long of chapter so please don't be disappointed, if the next ones are short. Anyways hope you guys like it.)
Caroline's POV
(Back in Carolines room)
I can't believe mama arranged for me and Tyler to get married! The thought of having to walk down the aisle only to have Tyler there at the end makes me ill. Yes there might be a decent guy somewhere deep, deep, DEEP down but I highly doubt it. Im so relieved that mama agreed to me choosing Damon, yes im still depressed about Klaus but hopefully Damon will be a suitable second choice. He seemed nice at least; I just hope this will work out. If I have to marry Tyler in the end. I just might have to do something rash.
Once im in my room, I decided to call on of the maids to run me a bath. After the shit that's happened today I think I need it. It takes them only minutes to arrive and fill the bath.
"Thank you" I say
"Your grace" they smile and curtsy. And with that they leave
ugh I hate that title. If I had my choice, the only thing they would call me is Caroline. Sometimes I wish I wasn't the princess, but you can't change your blood. Plus if I wasn't the only heir of this Kingdome. If want to be able to help this Kingdome and make sure we will never go to a war, this will be a peaceful country under my rule. Mama has told me about the wars that have happened in the past, and the lives we lost. I want to make sure we don't lose anybody.
Once im in the warm water, I go into the peaceful mood, that I can only enter when im in a warm bath or when im reading a good book. I wash my hair, and body. Once im all clean and smelling fresh I head back into my room to get changed into my nightgown. In the middle of changing
I hear a knock on my door.
"Come in please." I call out
luckily I have one of those dressing privacy screens.
"One moment please." I say
when im finished and I pull on my robe, I turn the corner to see who is in my room.
"Hello your grace, sorry for the intrusion. But your mother asked me to tell you to write a letter to lord Damon Salvatore explaining your choice."
"okay thank you." I finish with a smile
she doesn't leave which is odd. They always leave when I say thank you.
"Im I excused your grace."
"oh yes please do go, sorry."
She curtsy's and leaves. Oh weird they never asked if they had been excused before.
Oh no, I forgot. Mama and father told me that once I choose someone my status is upgraded. But how could I remember when I was barely in my right mind when they told me.
I grab on of the oil lamps and head over to my desk. Pulling out some of my yellow scented paper and my green ink pen. Before I start writing I can help but bring the paper up to my nose to smell it. Mmm I love the smell of gardens whether it's the perfume stuff, or smelling an actual garden.
Once im done admiring the paper. I set to work on my letter to Damon.
What on earth should me write- oh hello Damon because Klaus is not going to accept my proposal and my mother almost made me marry Tyler and the only reason I can get out of that marriage. Is to choose you.
My mother would have a field date if I ever sent a letter like that. So I end up just sending a quick simple letter.
Dear Damon
as you probably know, I had to pick a male suitor from the gathering that took place. I know we never really talked, but I would like to offer a proposal. Not a marriage proposal but a dating proposal to see if we can work out. I would be very grateful if you accept this proposal.
love
Princess Caroline
Damon's POV
I wake up, cocooned in my feather blankets. Oh how I don't want to get up, but I know breakfast will be served soon. And if I don't show up mother will probably send out a search party.
Once im dressed and sitting at the breakfast table with my family, my mother brings something up.
"Damon a letter has come in for you." she smiles when she hands the slip of paper to me
I take a look at the envelope. It seems like a normal letter, but the one thing that catches my attention is the royal seal stamped on the wax that encloses the envelope.
Curiosity gets the better of me. When I open it, I see that it's from the princess.
