Who would ever have guessed that the sister of Isabella Sw...
Attarah awoke with a start to a blinding light infiltrating the room through the open curtained windows, plaguing the room with incessant daylight. Rolling away with a grown, her fingers gripped tightly at the pillow below her.
Eventually she realized that it was not a pillow at all, her hands grasped at a thick fabric, a thick fabric that also lay around her small body, a cloak. At first she was resistant, not wanting the contact to end but she eventually opened her eyes to come face to face with Caius.
"Good morning princess" he whispered at his ever minty cold breath flew into her face, waking her up more. Attarah yawned and rolled away to sit upwards, rubbing her eyes and squinting until she recognized Aro and Marcus also present.
"Are you okay my sweet?" Aro questioned, she seemed dazed but what did they expect from a girl who'd only just awoken. Finally she managed to slide to the edge of the bed where she stretched, her back bone clicking as she did so.
"I'm fine" her voice was foggy, a morning voice that the kings didn't recognize.
"Are you ill my sweet princess?" Caius asked and Attarah giggled, clearing her throat.
"I'm fine...when was the last time you spent a day with a human?" She giggled again, they clearly didn't know much about humans.
A knock sounded in the room.
"Masters" a voice greeted as a girl entered, she was small and had dark hair like Attarah but was clearly older, along with having an Italian accent.
"Attarah, this is Miranda, she is your new handmaiden as Jane is rather busy" Marcus introduced as the girl frowned.
"Handmaiden?"
"Every queen needs a handmaiden my love" Aro smiled as he stood behind her, his hands resting on her shoulders gently. "Miranda, help Attarah get ready and escort her to the kitchens for breakfast. I'm sorry we cannot join you today love, we have a meeting"
Attarah whipped around to face him, her arms wrapping around his waist gently as she looked up at him. "That's okay love" she smiled and he chuckled, leaning down to kiss her forehead before leaving with his brothers.
"I shall draw you a bath my lady" Miranda smiled and Attarah returned it with only a slight frown.
"Please call me Attarah"
"I cannot, the kings will become very mad at me."
"Well, when we are alone, be free to call me what you wish then?" Attarah asked and the girl smiled as she entered the bathroom to draw a bath for the girl.
----
Attarah stepped out if the bathroom wearing a robe to find her new handmaiden waiting with a makeup case and assortment of hairbrushes. Attarah sat and Miranda got to work on making the queen look beautiful.
"It must be nice being the Queen" the handmaiden attempted to begin communication with the girl.
"I wouldn't call myself a queen, I'm barely even an adult and I have been given no lessons, I have been waiting to be told how to be a queen but nobody has taught me anything"
"I think a good Queen doesn't require lessons, a good Queen has a kind heart, that is what you have I believe and you will balance your kings" Miranda smiled as she braided her curls.
"I get rather bored"
"I have been given a list of activities that are available to you from the kings, they want you to have fun here. There is also a lesson timetable if you wish for it?" Miranda asked and the girl suddenly smiled.
Attarah felt elated to finally have a purpose in the castle, something to do and something to look forward to, up until then she was filled with boredom.
"I'm done your grace, shall I help you into your dress?"
"That's quite alright Miranda, and please call me Attarah." The future Queen prompted.
-----
Finally, Attarah walked through the stone castle with Miranda slightly behind her. Also alongside her were a girl named Regina and a boy named Clark, both vampires who'd been given orders to protect her.
"You look beautiful your grace"
Attarah was now dressed in a long peach dress with white embroidery and white heels, a golden swan pendant swinging from her neck. Her hair had been braided into a flower crown which she adored.

"Thank you Miranda though it was all your doing." The girl giggled as they entered the kitchen to find a meal prepared. Attarah sat and the guards took stance at the doors.
"Sit with me Miranda?"
"I mustn't your grace" she stammered.
"Well consider it an order to sit and dine with me?" She asked and Miranda did so awkwardly, accepting the food given to her by her new Queen.
"Tell me about yourself Miranda?"
"Well, I am a single mother of two children, my husband abandoned me and my children stay with my sister during the day who also has three children. We all live in a two bedroom apartment on the edge of town and I am the only one in work as my sister is pregnant again."
"Well, I do believe you deserve a pay rise for your hard efforts" Attarah smiled "I shall speak to the kings"
"What about you your grace? What is your story?...if you do not mind me asking"
"No, it's quite alright to ask questions. I come from Washington in America. I have a sister and I lived with my father who was the chief of police. A while ago my sister met a vampire named Edward and they are now married. At their wedding, I met the kings who recognized me as their mate and brought me here"
"What is your sisters name?"
"My sister is called Bella, I'm not sure whether she is human or vampire now though I do hope she is a vampire for that is what she wanted to be" Attarah smiled.
"Do you want to be a vampire?"
"The only way to love an immortal is to be immortal yourself Miranda, and I love three."
