Sonehri's POV
I watched as Katherine packed our things. She hadn't spoken since I told her she had to come with me to Aryan's Kingdom "Are you mad that you're coming with me, Katherine?" I asked getting up and sitting next to her, she just shook her head "Then why won't you speak to me?" Katherine sighed and looked at me "I'm just a little nervous about leaving the castle without your brothers or father coming with us. I've grown up here all my life. In fact I have never seen past the kingdoms gate without a male to a company me. But I'll do anything for you Princess." She gave me a small smile "How about we put you in that new dress I made before we go?" She suggested and I smiled at her, good thing that she is coming with me "Sure that sounds lovely. But I still feel like you are not telling me something. But you don't have to tell if you don't want me to know. I trust you" I told her standing from the bed so she can tie my corset and dress me
Soon we were arrived at the Michelson castle. It was huge almost as big as mine. I'm still mad at having to spend the rest of my life with this cold and rude person. But none of that mattered right now. I had find out how the castle was run, the army's secret weapon, and what fighting technical they are showing the fighters. Which Aryan or his father would most likely have written somewhere in their studies, I found queen Alysee waiting for me, she welcomed me to the castle, Katherine and I were shown to our new rooms, which were connected so she had easy access to me at all times. I was grateful for that; Katherine was the closest thing I had to a best friend. Once she finished unpacking our things Leah came into my room
I watched the princess entered heading towards me, she looked at Katherine "leave, now" Leah ordered her with very arrogant tone, Katherine looked at me "I'm sorry your highness but only princess Sonehri can order me" I slight smile to Katherine when Leah glared at her "How dare you? this is my castle that you are in" She stated and was about to slap Katherine when I catch her hand "she is my maid, princess and if you insult her I will take it personal" I stated let go of her hand when she glared at me like daggers then left angry "I'm sorry I don't want to cause any troubles" she said when I sighed "troubles are still to come don't worry about it" I stated and looked from the window thinking about the war that I become at the middle of
~Leah's POV~
I stormed into Aryan's room he was with one of his maids I rolled my eyes and she walked out quickly "have you ever heard about knocking" he said annoyed when the maid looked down and left "listen this is my castle I'm the princess of it and if a brat princess going to come here and think she rule everything just because you're getting married she is dead wrong" I said raising my voice angry when Aryan rolled his eyes "what happened?" he asked when I told him about what happened
At Harold's castle Damon followed Nicholas who was heading to the main gate on his horse "Nicholas!" He yelled his name when he went down of the horse "where are you going?" he asked "to Sonehri" Damon looked at him with suspicious look "what she will need one of us beside her now, and mother will go in a while to help her, so I thought about going earlier" Nicholas explained "and this has nothing to do with Princess Leah Michelson, right?" Damon said sarcastic when Nicholas looked at him without saying a word "we don't need another war she is engaged, Nicholas" Damon warned his brother "I won't do anything reckless, I promise" Nicholas stated then rides his horse heading out of the gate
~Sonehri's POV~
I was in what suppose to be my room now; I was brushing my hair looking at the mirror when I heard a knock on the door "come in" I yelled and Aryan entered, he stands looking at me for a while without saying anything, then he cleared his throat "what did you do?" he asked when I looked at him "I didn't do anything" I answered simply "Leah was so upset the way you treated her in front of your maid" he said "Katherine is my maid respecting her is part of respecting me, is that clear" I stated making myself clear "who do you think you're, acting all confident with your big ego you will be my wife that mean I will own you, you will be my property and if this war was still on, you would have been my odalisque" He said as he came closer me, I keep taking steps back until the wall stopped me, he looked at me with a smirk "you're beautiful scared" he commented "I'm not scared" I protested when he walked away from me then turned around "don't cause troubles" He stated then left, I sit on the bed he makes me feel so uncomfortable
~Aryan's POV~
I walked out of her room, she look beautiful different than the first time I saw her, her beautiful brown eyes and hair cascade on her shoulders showing the natural beauty of her face, what am I think? Stop it Aryan, I thought then walked way when I spotted my mother she looked so upset, she walked towards me, I bow in respect for the mother queen "your highness" I bow in respect then stand straight "Aryan, what that I heard?" she asked upset "what's wrong, your highness?" I asked "Leah disrespected princess, Sonehri and I won't allow this....I didn't raise you to be like this" She said with serious tone "I'm sorry your highness" I apologized to her "Aryan, she will be your wife you have to love and respect her beside we are hosting a ball tomorrow celebrating your engagement" I nodded, I really hate that they are forcing me to do this, I went to my room to find Cassie prepare the room, She looked at me with sad face "What do you want Cassie?" I ask sitting on my bed, she walked over "Now that you're getting married where that leaves me, my prince? I know you don't believe in love, which is sad, but I still do. I believe that we are meant to be my prince." She said coming closer touching my face with her hand, great this was the last thing I needed to think about this morning "Cassie, We are not meant to be your blood is not royal nor holy. I will never be with you." I told her the voice cold and firm. It's time she understood where her place was in this kingdom and even my favorites had to behave, Cassie's eyes filled with tears and her face became red. She looked at me "How can I be in love with you and you don't feel me?!" She said at me then stormed out of my room. I shut my eyes enjoying the pace and quiet. I don't know why she's so upset I just told her the truth
~Cassie's POV~
I was very mad that this stupid princess arrived and the ball tonight it all was a shatter to my planes, I have to see her they all talk about how beautiful she is, I found Olivia headed to her room with a food tray "Olivia, wait I will take it" She looked at me surprise, I never do anything the maids do, I was only serving prince Aryan, I was planning to be his wife, the mother of his child …. The heir of the throne, but this princess will ruin all my planes; I knocked on the door when her maid opened the door "what do you want?" Katherine asked "I brought the princess food" I said and she let me in, I looked at the princess, she was really beautiful as they all say but she won't be here for long, her maid notice that I was staring at the princess "what are you still doing here?" Katherine asked a little angry "sorry, I just heard that the princess beauty and I wanted to see her, sorry your highness" I forced myself to bow in front of her "what's your name?" Sonehri asked "Cassie, your highness" I introduced myself when she smiled at me "you may go Cassie" I bow again and left, I have to get rid of her
