Staring at myself in the mirror, I really loved what my personal maid, Eve, did with my hair, it was perfect, and I think I just found a new favorite color, cause the yellow dress Eve had me in was perfect.
" Do you like it?". Eve calm voice asked behind me, while I just nodded smiling holding her gaze through the mirror, she smiled back showing me her cute dimples, I wish i had those, don't get me wrong, I was also a beauty, my red curly hair long up to my waist line, brought out my dark eyes, and my glass skin, as lord Henry liked to call it, made my perfect body even more perfect, like I said I was a beauty, but sometimes I felt like I wasn't as perfect as Eve, she had that dark long waves, passed her waist line, and her body could bring any man to his feet, it's like she was purely made to be a living temptation.
" Lost in thoughts again my lady". I snapped out of my daze to see Eve giving me the look.
" Nope, and Genevieve, my lady?". Genevieve was her name, but sometimes I was too lazy to call her that and I just ended with Eve, and I definitely don't like her calling me my lady, she was only a day older than me.
She gave me the look again, but this time slightly pointing towards my door, and I turned to find my mom, staring at me with a smile, how long as she been there, why didn't Eve say something.
" I see, Eve really did out did herself". My mom said, walking towards me. " Yeah and I love this dress". My mom and Eve chuckled making me smile.
" I can't believe your already eighteen, it still feels like you were born just yesterday". My mom said, pulling me into a hug.
" Yeah, but I would always be your little princess". I said the minute I let go. " Now, now, the guest are waiting for the birthday girl, let's go". I nodded, smiling.
Walking down the halls, I could never get used to it's beauty, getting into the ball room, there where just so many people, I mean it was a princess birthday, but still they where just so many.
" Have fun, let me search for your father". I nodded while she walked away, leaving me alone, this where the times I wish Eve wasn't just my maid.
" Enjoying the party?". A deep voice wispered close to me ear, making me jump and missing my feet, but the hand caught my waist pushing me back into his body, and I turned just to find lord Henry.
"Bloodly hell, you scared the living daylight out of me". I wispered hold his shoulders trying to still caught my breath, his hands didn't leave my waist, that I was greatful about that, cause I wasn't sure if I could stand on my own properly.
" Your just so cute". He chuckled making me glare at him, this where the times I wanted to kill him.
" It isn't right for a gentleman to go about scaring his fiance, and calling her cute right after". I mumbled and saw his smile grow.
" Princess I could be anything but gentle with you". And that took me by surprise, and it didn't help if I had a really dirty mind, he chuckled and I could see he did that on purpose.
" That's not right". I fumble, trying to control my face that's going to explode, he leaned closer and placed a kiss on my red cheeks, staying longer than usual.
" Your my fiance, soon to be wife, I don't think I should be right with you". He wispered holding my gaze, and somehow I forgot how to breath, something was different about him today.
Ever since we got engaged six months ago, lord Henry hasn't been this blunt with me, sure he would crack a little dirty joke every now and then, but he hasn't been this serious with me.
lord Henry was my father most trusted and powerful subject, we where kind of friends, before we got engaged, I mean he is just seven years older than me, but we some how got along, i guess that's why being engaged to him wasn't a big deal, but he always kept his distance, I mean he hasn't even kissed me, only kisses on my cheeks and hands since we got engaged, but now, the way he was staring at me I felt like if we weren't in the ball room, he would surely be doing lots of inappropriate things to me.
"I..I..I..". Hell I didn't know what to say right now.
" Am I coming off too strong?". He asked, pulling me closer, making me wrap my hands around his neck, staring at his brown eyes, while I just slightly shook my head, God he was even more handsome up close.
His gaze fell to my lips and I just hold my breath, was he serious?, He wasn't going to kiss me here in center of so many people, his gaze ment mine, as if asking for permission, he was crazy, but I didn't stop him or gave him permission, I was too busy holding my breath.
" There you are hazel". I heard my father's voice behind me, and I quickly pulled out of Henry's hold, to see my dad smirking at us, hell just how many people had seen us like that.
" I see lord Henry found you?". My dad winked, and I suddenly wished I could disappear.
" Your majesty". Lord Henry bowed and I finally noticed the wine he was holding all this time, was he drunk?. " Is it okay if i steal her real quick , we need to make an announcement". My dad asked, still throwing the looks at me, oh living god I just want to disappear.
" Sure". Lord Henry answered, before leaving a kiss on my side head and walking off, remind me to kill him later.
" I see I made a right choice didn't I?". My father teased and I just nodded. " Let's go".
We walked up to his throne, staring down at everyone, my father clapped his hands gaining everyone's attention and suddenly all eyes where on me.
" Today we gather here, to celebrate my daughter's birthday, where she would become a woman, a woman of honor, beauty and grace, and also to know she would make our kingdom stronger and better, as she would legally be lord Henry's wife in three weeks". The clapping erupt and my gaze found lord Henry, in three weeks I would be his wife. " She would be our princess of honor and my lovely daughter". My father finished smiling at me the claps erupted and the music followed, and everyone got a dance partner, my eyes found lord Henry talking to a man, he played with his drink before gulping it down his throat, he was off today.
" If you keep staring at him like that he might disappear". My mom said and I turned to meet her sly smile.
