Chapter One
-Isabella-
"You can't be serious father!" I scream as I stand infront of his large desk.
"Oh I'm serious and don't use that tone with me young lady, I am king." He says.
"I told you they are all lies. Rumours spread to hurt me."
"Rumours Isabella? Rumours? A picture tells a thousand words for peopke like us it tells more than a thousand. Rumours dont just affect you they affect the entire family."
"I know."
"It wouldn't have happened if you knew."
"Father please give me a second chance."
"It's too late. Count yourself lucky I'll at least let you pick where you'd like to go."
"Pick whatever country you want to go to."
"Dad." I sob.
"Would you prefer I pick for you?. He threatens knowing full well I wouldn't like that.
"Fine Italy." I say drying my tears.
"Good choice." He says continuing with his mail.
"You can go and begin packing your things at once. You leave early tomorrow morning." He says.
When I get to my room I toss the first family potrait I see across the room.
I grab my laptop and check out Paper Crown, the countries teen news dite of sorts.
I see the horrid picture and headline and decide to check out the comments.
Jenny368:Wow she's such a slut. I thought royalty was supposed to be proper.
Harry101: I'd still hit that though. I mean she's a princess who wouldn't want to show off that they f***ed a princess.
Sam: I thought she was decent. Damn she's f***ed or should I say royally f***ed.
After reading about a 4 dozen commentss I see them, posts from my own friends insulting me.
Jas.mine.Q: she's always been a thirsty slut. #ThirstyPrincess
J.B: her family must really wish she wasn't a Tatentino now. I would disown her after this.
H.Colton.W: She should just die, I mean how is she going to face the world now.
Sophia.V: guess she isn't a virgin anymore.
"Sopia Vittor-Smith, Henry Colton Whyte, Jasmine Quartz and Lucus Blythe." My so called friends have all turned on me.
Lost in thought I don't even hear Christian my older brother enter my room and get behind me, until he speaks.
"Really the Paper Crown. Why are you reading that runbish." He questions.
"It's the news." I sob.
"No it's a teen gossip site." He says closing my laptop.
"I dry my tears but more slip out." Chris engulfs me in a hug and I ugly cry sime more.
"Did anybody ever tell you that you have the uglyiest cry ever?" He asks after I've emptied out my tear ducts.
"Shut up." I giggle then hit his chest.
"I heard dad's sending you away."
"Yeah." I respond drying my tears and leaving my brothers warm embrace.
"Where to? For how long??" He asks.
"Italy, I don't really know how long, O guess when everything calms down, when dad calms down."
"Do you want to go?" He asks merubbing my shoulder.
"I do especially after seeing the comments my own friends left on paper crown. I just wish I wasn't going with any security. I guess dad thinks I need babysitters now more than ever."
"I can help you get away from your security detail Isa."
"Really how?"
"Pick a different place you'd like to go to besides Italy."
"Switzerland."
Ok thats easy I can get you a train ticket from Milan and to Zurich or Geneva. But first I'll have to give you a fake passport tomorrow morning so that no one can track you when you move between boarders. Then I can send you money after you've contacted me and set everything up."
"Really Chris? You'd do that for me."
"Your my one and only sister, my only sibling infact. I'd do that and more." He replies placing a kiss on my forehead.
"Ill give you the new passport and so.e cash tomorrow morning. I suggest you empty your piggy banks as well."
"Thankyou big brother." I say hugging him again before he leaves my room. I hope this works.
After I finished packing last night, I've been trying to sleep but I just keep tossing and turning remebering the comments on Paper Crowns.
My door opens in the middle of the night and I make out a huge silhouette.
I'm just about to scream when the lights go on and I realize it's Christian.
"Oh its you."
"Who did you think it was?" He qustions.
"I don't know a thief." I respond.
"This is a heavily guarded fortress, you would have heard your guards down the hall struggling if someone tried to break in."
"Whatever, why are you here at this time."
"I brought you your passport and train ticket from Milan to Zurich." He says handing them to me.
"And here is some extra cash. He says handing me a bag of cash.
"How did you get all this at night Isn't it too much?"
"Seriously? You ask like you arent a Tarentino."
"Anyway you won't be for a while youre now Isabella Hart and you'll be leaving with an english speaking family in Zurich."
This bag of cash is just in case we don't get in contact soon, diposit it in a bank and ration it wisely." He adds and I nod.
"Here is your new phone, I've put in the number of lady you'll be staying with as well as mine. But don't call me unless its necessary I'll call you. I'm sure that once dad finds out you're missing he'll keep tabs on me. So it might be risky. I'll call you as often as possible."
"Thankyou Chris."
"Anything for our little princess." He says. "See you in a few hours." He adds yawning and exiting my room.
"Yeah you need to rest. Sorry for keeping you up so long.Goodnight." I wave as he leaves.
My clock reads 03:28 hours and I try to close my eyes but I can't. So I stay up and watch as the sun begins to rise at on the early morning.
I take a long shower around zero five hours and get dressed in a pink chanel suit with tights and a matching skirt. I tie my hair into a pony tail.
No sooner had I put the bag of money Chris gave me into my suitecase than the maid knocked on my door.
"Come in." I reply and the door opens
"Breakfast is ready my lady." She says beaming.
I wonder why is she happy to get rid of me? The dubbed prolem child.
It doesn't matter. I smile back. "Thankyou."
I hope I'll be able to get through breakfast without a fight. I think to myself as I descend the stairs of my wing.
