Brielle's POV:
I stood at the front of the ship, watching the sunset. Beautiful colors of vibrant orange, bright yellow and soft pinks and purples danced across the water. This was bliss, if only my thoughts hadn't interrupted it. What if this prince doesn't like you? what if you don't like him? what if he's cruel? agh I sigh i know I don't need to worry I have made many inquires about him and they all say how wonderful and charming and caring he is. I talk myself down and watch as the last glint of light from the sunset disappear as it does I get a feeling in my stomach, and a tingle through my skin. I thought it was just nerves so I walk around to the back of the ship and see another ship in the distance. I turn to the captain, "Jack, do you see that ship?" "Ay miss, we believe its a merchant ship also heading to England." He responds. I nod, still seeing the slight worry in my eyes he says "Don't worry miss, even if it be an enemy ship we are keeping a safe distance, and we are well armed. But again no need to worry they are not flying an enemy flag." he gives me a smile. I feel assured. "We will be there by the morning miss and its getting late. why don't you get some rest?" he recommends. "Thank you captain, I will do that." I walk below deck and head to my cabin. It has been a long day and I am exhausted. I open the door and undress for bed, father allowed me to wear trousers and a blouse with boots. I prefer to wear these clothes when traveling. However tomorrow I must dress "acceptably" according to Milli, my lady's maid. She went to England a few days ahead of us, to prepare everything for our arrival. Ahh I lay down on my bed and I can feel sleeps warm embrace.
I jolt awake, the moonlight hitting my exposed skin. I felt that strange feeling again, but now I smell a sweet scent like the forest, I like that smell. I dont know why I keep feeling like this, maybe I'm just nervous DAMN I hate this! I just need to get some more sleep! I lay back down and force myself to sleep.
