When I got into my room I continue crying,The next day I went to beg dad not to let the marriage happened but he told me something that shocked me“Aurora you have no right over your self, I am your dad but before that I was the king I can't risk the life of my people because of you,And also this marriage is going to happen and nobody not even the gods can stop it ,so stop behaving like a lost child and start getting ready for the marriage",Those where not my dad word,those words can never be my dad word those are the words of a King as my thoughts were running wild hot tear flow from my eyes. The days ram so fast that it was already four days to my wedding when I came up with an idea to run away,I was not a warrior princess like my best friend Rose but I can ride a horse very well,So I waited for the sun to set and I watched as everyone in my castle fell asleep,I put some drugs in everyone food that help them to be fast asleep.So midnight came and tip toe out of the castle I quickly got to my personal horse and rode off,I left the castle but I don't no where to go I rode to a place in the woods and got tired a slept off and when I woke up I found my self in Rose's village, Wow my horse really doesn't want me to get married to Lucian I thought.Back at the Castle everyone was looking for Aurora the king was angery“Do you all mean that non of you saw her living the castle!!?,What useless guard, Chief Guard I want my daughter back to this castle before night fall do you understand me!!!!",“Yes your highness they all answered and immediately started a search for me,“Dad you drove Aurora to this point you should have...",“Shut up James you might be the crown prince but I am still the king and no matter what this marriage will hold"Dad said and left. In Rose's castle her parent,King Harry and Queen Esther welcome me with open hands they asked me why I didn't come with my guards and I gave some excuse,Rose took me to her room and I explain everything,Rose is my best friend and also James' soon to be wife,she was sad and pitied me but she said she can't help because her dad has already called my dad"What!!,No Rose do something I need to escape I don't want to...",I looked outside her window and found my guards I ran out of the room to escape but I was caught my our chief guard “please don't do this taking back to the castle means me getting married to that emperor,do you want your beloved princess to die in the hand of that emperor ",I try to explain to them on our way back to my village but they were not ready to listen and took me straight to my dad“Dad I ..."“Aurora you should not have tried to run sway,Lock in her room and she is not supposed to come out until the day of her marriage ",“Dad please My King"I cried and scream and I was taken away by the guards,I felt betrayed and hurt . Days ran so fast and I can't believe I am the one standing on the alter with Lucian.But Lucian is very good looking and tall,after the wedding Dad called me and hug me I didn't hug him back and he understood why,I hug my mom and brother silently crying,I looked at Rose in anger and I guess she also understood why,When I got into my carrier with Lucian and look at my home, Family,maid and my horse one last time before we rode off I silently cried and prayed for all this to be a nightmare.
