Hell I
Ophelia's POV;

Clack...
As I walk down the hall that's decorated in black and silver metal on the walls to my father's office I look straight ahead until I'm met with huge doors with a gold handle.
*Knock
*Knock
"Enter!"
I hear father's voice then open the door and walk in. I see that he is still looking as young as my second brother that just turned 15. I stop walking at the steps to the thrown that father resides and bow my head.
"Ahh... You look lovely Ophelia. That's a extravagant dress your wearing." My father notices the blood red dress that I'm wearing with black lace leggings and black design on my left shoulder. That straps go from the front than cross as an x from behind. The dress ends at the middle of my thigh and I have on black heals with my long black wavy hair down covering my back.
"You called for me father?" I ask then lift my head up.
"Yes, you will be going to Seattle to find your elder step-brother a wife that is his taste, obedient and smaller than you." He states as I walk up the stairs to stand next to him.
"Yes, father" I answer him than I clench my right fist and raise it to my chest and turn to walk away from his thrown. I stop in my tracks when I hear,
"Also you'll be going to a meeting for me while you look for his bride." He states giving off a look or expectation.
"Yes, Father." I say and bow as I continue walking out of his office.
~~~
As I close the door I sigh...
Well going to Seattle won't change the temperature of the weather which hasn't affected me since I was born father always said that I was his favorite child because I didn't say anything unless necessary or cry for no reason.
I walk back passed the garden on my way out of father's castle, seeing Alex plucking mother's flowers. I felt my face turn cold and walked up to him and grabbed his hand as he was about to pluck another flower.
"What do you think your doing, Alex?" I ask him as he looks up at me frightened that I gave him a harsh tone because he was my favorite younger sibling.
"I-I was j-just taking them for M-mom's grave." He explains trying to avoid my eyes.
"Hmmm," I sigh calming my breathing.
"Well you shouldn't take the flowers from her garden you should get the ones in father's garden that he doesn't care how they're used but you may not lay your hands in this garden Alex it's mother's." I tell him, grabbing to pick him up and hold him with my left hand while he rapped good arms around my shoulders. He was the only one allowed to hug me ever since he was born. Not even my father was allowed to hug me I always slapped those that tried to grab a hold of me in a hug. As I stretch out my right hand and the vines that and around the flowers grow and extend to make a boarder around the flowers and take back my hand the smile at Alex to reassure him that he's not in trouble.
I walk with him in my arms and turn a corner of the garden and walk up to the flower garden that father has a maid take care of.
"You may take as many as you want from here to put on mother's grave. Alright Alex?" I tell him while putting him down to the ground and he runs over to the flowers and starts to pick the ones he wants. I look around to find a maid.
"Master Alex is allowed to take flowers from this garden." I inform her which in turn she bows her head.
"Yes, Ma'am." She said and goes over to Alex.
"Alex, she will assist you while I am gone alright?" I tell Alex as he raises his head.
