A New friend
“Good Morning My Lady, I hope you had a quiet night” Ella greets me as she goes to open the curtains to my bedroom. “Good Morning Ella” I pull my sheets over my head trying to go back to sleep. “My lady we need to prepare you for the arrival of the guests they are arriving today,” Ella says “Please One more minute I will wake up,” I tell her, “but my lady you have a long day ahead of you and His Majesty the King awaits your presence,” she says, knowing the kind of man my father is I decided to come out of bed. I look at her and she’s smiling “well done Ella you have managed to ruin my day” I hiss at her, she just continues smiling as she goes to make my bed. I walk over to my bathroom and close the door, she has prepared my bath with white and red roses. I chuckle remembering the conversation I had with her when my father announced during breakfast two months ago that I will be getting to Crown Prince Aiden Higgins Of Ireland. “I can’t believe you will soon be married to the Crown Prince, Future Queen Katherine Madsen Higgins” Ella Keane at your service!  she said sounding so happy as we got to my room, I went to my dressing table and started combing my hair when she noticed I was quiet she asked me what was wrong “what if he doesn’t like me or maybe I don’t make a good queen?” I ask while still combing my hair “My lady is sure you will make a very good queen, they are going to love you. You know I am going to do on the day royal guests will be coming, I will prepare your bath with red roses petals and white. Do not worry about how beautiful you are and a pure heart you have.'' Yes, I was a very beautiful 5’4’’ 23-year-old with a slender figure with green eyes I had a brother who was the Charles who was the Crown Prince and Elsa my elder,  I was an introvert and the only friend I had was Ella, she was 4 years older than me but we were still friends. Ella’s parents were slaves, who were killed 10 years ago because her father was accused of stealing Jewellery from the family he was serving.  Her Mother was a Palace maid.  our laws were if you were found stealing, they would Hang you and your entire family. I met her when she was trying to run away from the guards who were trying to catch her behind the castle walls, she bumped into me when I was trying to pick flowers from my mum's garden, my nanny pushed her away and she fell right to the ground.  “Watch where you are going young lady, you have hurt the princess” nanny shouted at her, I looked at her she was in rages and frightened I couldn’t help but feel pity for her before she could run the guards chasing her had already grabbed her. I watched as she was being dragged away but she kept looking at with pleading eyes. “Martha, what wrong has that young lady done?” I asked my nanny “Her father stole from the household he was working for” My nanny answered. “Are they going to kill her?” I asked “Yes” Mumbled Ingrid “What wrong has she done, Being that man’s child” “Unfortunately that’s the way it is now Your Highness, Poor thing she will be hanged because of her father’s sin,” Martha said, “we need to go back to the palace now or else His majesty won’t be too happy if we are late” As we walked by going back to enter the castle, I saw the young lady being dragged away like a criminal. My heart wasn’t at peace knowing that an innocent person was going to be killed because of her father’s sins. I turned away from the Castle and ran towards the guards who were taking her away, Martha was right behind me chasing me when they finally stopped me I had already reached the Dungeon they were taking her cause the hanging would take place the next day noon. “Your Highness, what are you doing?” She spoke heavily panting “Martha, We can’t let them kill her” I pleaded with her tears rolling down my face. I knew I didn’t have the power to do anything but I was hoping Martha or the guards would do something. “Your Highness, There’s nothing I can do, this is the law and I can’t anything.” I went back running the to the King’s chambers with tears rolling down my face. Before I could enter one of his guards blocked my way, “I need to speak with the king,” I told him still crying “Am Sorry, Your Highness but the king asked not to be disturbed” He replied, “I just need to talk to him, tell him it’s very urgent?” I told him but he was not listening to me, Father!!!!! Father please I need to speak with you!! *Inside the Kings Chamber’s* “Go and find out what is bothering the princess,” The King asked Theodore his Butler, I saw him come out. “What’s wrong your highness you sound distressed?” Asked Theodore “They are going to kill her Theodore and she didn’t do anything wrong,” I said while crying. I explained everything to him, he went back into my fathers’ I waited at the door for hours but there was nothing from him and Martha was there pleading with me to go back to my room.  It was now night and Martha had gone to fetch Charles from the look on his I was certain she had already today him everything, “You need to rest Katherine, you know the laws of our kingdom” I kept quiet without answering him cause he wasn’t going to help. “You haven’t eaten anything since morning, you need your strength” He went on talking, “Am going to stay here till he changes his mind, we just can't kill people just cause someone carrying the same blood committed a crime towards the rich?” I told him, “I will talk to him if it helps” I looked at him, “but am not saying I will do anything” He stood up and asked the guard to open the doors and he was allowed to enter. “Good Evening, Your Majesty!” He greeted my father, “Prince Charles! How can I be of any help?” He asked my brother “Your Majesty, My apologizes for disturbing you but I understand you know of the situation that has brought me here.” Charles Said, “If this is about Katherine’s request, tell her this kingdom has laws and am here to make sure they are enforced,” He said, “Forgive me your Majesty, but if she continues sitting there she will fall sick and we might lose her again” When the King heard this his heart sunk, Katherine was a remainder of his wife who died when giving birth to her. Charles came out with a scroll declaring Ella was free as a slave and she could live her life freely, she offered to serve me for the rest of her life that’s how we are here today.
