“I am curious” said the first lady “Of what?” Asked the other lady. Eager to know what she was thinking. “I heard the pearl kingdom has seven princes and the only one who wears a mask is the fifth prince, so how did he become the crown prince?” “That’s because, amongst the seven princes in the pearl kingdom the fifth prince is said to be the smartest, the genius of our time. When it comes to the economy affairs of the pearl kingdom, he is the one in charge while the rest of the princes are in charge of the social affairs. He is also feared by his brothers because of is combat skills as well. So, who do you think deserves to be the crown prince?” Asked the other lady back. “Now I understand!!!” Said the First Lady. “And also I heard that the war that happened between pearl kingdom amd star kingdom was strategised and led by the fifth prince at the age of sixteen” said the other lady. “Wow, such a genius” said the First Lady casting an eye on the mysterious man “ I never knew he was this capable”. “ I was also shocked too” said the other lady recalling the day she heard this piece of juicy gossip. “So…… uhmmm, do you know his name” asked the first lady . Maybe she can have the opportunity to get close to him before the other ladies do. “Unfortunately……nooo” said the other lady sensing her scheme. On the other end of the hall, the trumpets sounded as the eyes of the people were lurking on the door which is about to reveal a magnificent view. “Here comes her royal highness, princess Arya of Emarald kingdom” said the man at the door. Entering into the ball room she could hear different voices whispering to themselves, which she was used too. “Damn, she is beautiful” exclaimed one of the men in the crowd. “Of course she is, why does she have the name royal white flowers if she isn’t as beautiful as she is” said another man. Admiration could be seen in his eyes. While some women were jealous, few admired her beauty, accessories,clothe and figure. “OMG, can you see how beautiful her dress is? I can do anything to have that dress and her figure as well” said one of the women in the crowd with a hint of jealousy in her voice. Large percentage of women in the hall were burning with envy. Arya, who is about to be drowned by their water of jealousy didn’t even know they existed. While all men were admiring, one in particular was fascinated by another thing. He was not even curious to see how the crown princess looks like but continued admiring is wine which was served specifically to him. The wine was both sour and sweet. The wine was a mixture of different flavours which makes him keep on wondering how such a kingdom could have something as good as this. “So a kingdom like this could have such an interesting thing” thought the man raising one of his perfectly carved eyebrows. “ look for the source of this wine for me” ordered the man to the man in black behind him. On the other side, Arya was searching the entire hall for that one man who is about to be her husband. “Do you have any idea who that man his?” Asked arya not wanting to mention the man as her future husband. “No, your highness” replied Bella and Anne together. Disappointed arya signed sorrowfully “I hope it’s not one baldy old man” said Arya hopefully “Don’t worry your highness, I don’t think the queen will ever agreeable to you marrying an old man” said Anne “I am not sure” said Arya unsure “ your highness it’s time” said Bella reminding Aria it was time to sit on her throne. Arya moved forward sitting on her throne which was placed closed to her mother’s. Aria could hear her heart beating thinking if she is the only one hearing it. The king, who was sitting proudly on his throne looked at his beautiful daughter and could not be more proud than he was. Sitting on her throne. Her eyes spotted a particular man who was busy studying the wine in his hands like it was an exciting thing to do. But what surprised her the most that he was sitting were important guests are meant to sit, like her father’s official or rather he was sitting even in a more important place which means that he was more important that her father’s officials. He next sit close to him was placed five meters away from him. Helious looked up because he felt someone staring at him very hard which he could not just ignore but he didn’t sense any danger from it that’s why he didn’t react at first but now it was bothering him. He met a pair of curious eyes which looked beautiful and can make you get lost in them. It was the girl he bumped into….sorry, who bumped into him who also turned out to be the princess. “Now, things are just getting more interesting” said helious smirking, and looked away from her beautiful eyes. “Oh my God, what am I doing, he caught me while starting, and Jesus why can’t I remove my gaze just now” thought aria, as he heart palpitated. “Well, you can’t blame me. His eyes are captivating, bluish just like the bottom of the ocean where you wish to go to but knowing fully well it lurks with danger. And his eyebrows are so dreamy. “Arya” called her mother the queen. “Yes, mother” answered Arya as she was distracted from her thoughts. “Were you lost in thoughts just now?” Asked her mother. “No, mother “ Arya lied. “My daughter, marriage is not about love for you as a princess. You have to marry so as to protect your nation” said the queen. “Yes, mother” answered Arya downcast. “Of course, it’s always about the nation” murmured Arya. “Did you say something, darling?” Asked the queen. “No, mother” said Arya faking a smile. “Good days ladies and gentlemen “ said the announcer. “ you are all welcome to the ball party. As you all know, that this party is for a particular reason. We are here to bear witness to the marriage alliance between Emerald kingdom and the Pearl kingdom”. Whispers could be heard all over the room. “What is he saying “ asked a lady “Did he mean our royal white flower has been betrothed to one of the princes from the Pearl kingdom?” Asked a man. “ I haven’t even asked for her hand in marriage yet” said another man disappointed. “Thank goodness she is betrothed, we can now have all the handsome men to ourselves” said another lady who had an heavy makeup on. Which makes her look like a devil doll
