Rewrite The Threads of Fate

Chapter Two: When A Dream Is Reality

"What do you think? I did light makeup as you always liked and pretty hair pins"

I raised an eyebrow looking at myself as I was indeed beautiful but this wasn't me as I smiled at her.

"The makeup is beautiful but I want to do my hair if I may?"

The woman looked confused for a second but nodded in reply as I took the pins out my head and started to braid my hair as that's how I liked wearing my long hair, I smiled adding some flowers to it for some pretty effect before looking at the woman who looked amazed and were smiling, I blinked thinking this was wrong or something.

"It's so pretty..Definitely teach me onward on how to do this and ill do this for you instead."

I nodded my head smiling as I stood up and we left the room I was in and the manor, I was shocked how pretty the place was. She walked me around a bit showing me different places that the "Princess" would love to go when she needed some air. I smiled thinking this girl must really wanted some alone time away from people as she had many spots in the manor.

"Can I ask..How did she.. pass?" I asked her gently while looking at her as we walked.

She nodded her head. "Illness I'm afraid, she was very sick since birth..and it soon ended her life."

I thought about it as I was also born sick, but it wasn't as serious as they explained. I nodded and didn't ask anything further about it, we passed by some maids as they bowed but gossiped how pretty I was. I couldn't help but feel somewhat shy. I gave small smiles to them walking by but kept my hands in front of me folded as that was the right way to walk.

I kept trying to think how I was going to do this, act? But that would be weird and wrong if I acted as his dead daughter.. But what if I was indeed reincarnated as her..which would also make this weird.

Two large guards were standing guard outside the double doors before one spoke up loudly and announced my arrival. I swallowed hard and tried to keep myself from a panic attack. The door's slowly opened and I walked inside while loads of faces turned to look in my direction. The four boys from last night were there sitting down as well. The man who I would guess was the King, he stood in my presence as he stared deeply at me and I couldn't help but give a small smile as I stopped a certain amount away.

My hand maiden looked at me and whispered. "Bow.." She said.

Oh crap right, old school stuff. I slowly got down on my knees and bowed respectfully to him.

"Rise." His husky voice said as he walked to me and helped me up off the ground, he slowly reached forward and cupped my cheek. I looked into his eyes and you could see he was a good Father to this girl and I felt bad he thought I was her.

"You look so much like her.." He whispered.

"She does sir, Though her manners are a tad off and she doesn't seem to remember a thing, I'm sure I can help her learn such things." She reassured him by bowing.

"I..I've been told I was reborn and I'm your daughter, forgive me but I don't remember anything." I said lying through my teeth as I played the role.

He nodded his head rubbing my cheek. "Sadly that's one of the side effects of being reborn I've been told...But don't worry these four will protect you no matter what." He said as he raised his hand as the four males rose.

I looked over at them remembering their faces but also the male's who dropped me on my ass, I gave him a little glare which he noticed before I smirked and looks to him.

"Thank you...Father." I tried to say as it almost made me choke just saying that was weird but the man's face looked like it meant everything to hear me say that.

"Anything you keep you safe. Now lets get you set up in your proper room and you can start your studies again..." He nodded to my hand maiden as he turned away and went back to his chair as I bowed once more before turning and walking past the boys and out the doors. As they shut behind me I groaned out loudly finally breathing.

"That was so scary.." I whined to Ai who giggled and rubbed my back.

"I know but it will get better if and when your memory comes back." She assured me gently.

"Yes, so let's not waste our time babysitting you hmm." A voice said from behind us.

I jumped as it did indeed startle me, I turned seeing the four of them as I sighed not realizing' they followed us out.

"Oi.. Trust me I don't want you following me around like a dog either, especially since you dropped me when we first met." I glared as he glared back.

One of the boys laughed before smiling as he bowed. "We should properly introduce ourselves hmm? I'm Kai. The youngest of the four.."

"Hello Princess, I am Dajian. The smartest of the four." He smirked, bowing to me.

I nodded my head. Great, I had to remember faces and names. I gave a fake smile to him as I looked at the other's.

"I'm Kai, The youngest sadly..but the most loyal out of them." He snickered as his brothers gave him a dry expression which made me laugh.

"Hello Princess, My name is Tao. I'm the Eldest brother of the bunch, this is the second eldest Haoyu who dropped you on your butt when we first met." He smirked, bowing his head as he grabbed his brother by the back of the neck and made him bow to me.

I nodded, smirking.
"It's nice to meet you all, even though I'm sure we met but I'm sorry If I don't remember your names or anything. I'm trying." I lied frowning.

"Don't worry about it, Maybe it will come back to you eventually." Tao smiled at me, reassuring me.

I nodded my head smiling at him. Honestly I didn't think that would happen as I'm not the person they think I am, I'm playing a role to stay alive and to figure out what exactly is happening to me, or was I that person who died and got reborn into a whole new life to fix this person's my head spun and before I knew it the floor was the last thing I saw before passing out.
