I offered the curtsy to the king and the queen, and I heard a chuckle from Emmett, Edward's twin brother and my good friend. He was thirty minutes younger to Edward and he was the complete opposite of Edward. Edward was very proud about their traditions, while Emmett couldn't take anything seriously!

He must be finding it hilarious to see me offering the curtsy. In the normal case, Edward might also have made fun of me, but he wouldn't do it in this situation.

He was under tremendous pressure, and honestly I was scared, too! So there was a very high probability that he would be the king in the very near future, and I had no idea what to make of it!

I had been preparing myself to get ready to be the 'princess' someday, but to be the 'queen'? I shuddered even at the thought.

"Hello Isabella... I was dying to meet you," I saw the epitome of beauty walking towards me.

Okay, the pictures and videos didn't do justice to her beauty!

"Hi, I'm Rosalie Hale," she smiled.


"Who is the girl? I've seen her in many of your pics," I asked Edward.

"That's Rosalie Hale," he said, "She is the daughter of one of the Dukes."

"She is beautiful," I commented.

"Yes, she is... and she is very proud of it," he chuckled.

"She should be. She is so pretty!" I said, "So are you guys childhood friends?"

"Yes, she's a good friend," he said, "She is Mom and Dad's favorite. In fact, Mom was really sure at some point that she was going to be her daughter-in-law," he chuckled.

Huh!

"So I guess I should not have high hopes from this relationship and accept that you're going to marry her someday?" I joked.

"Well, I might think about it if you give me a divorce some day," he shrugged.

"Man! I've a feeling you're going to dump me for her some day," I joked, "I mean, look at her!"


My eyes flickered from Rosalie to Edward.

Man! He had such a terrible taste in girls!

I mean, why would he fall in love with me when he could have it all with her?
