The morning sun shines into the room and lighting the room. She blinks and slightly yawns.. The most beautiful girl in the kingdom, one true to her name...
"Princess Dawn... It's time for your royal bath" said her Lady in waiting from outside the room, behind the closed door.
She talks to herself... "Can't a girl have her pretty sleep. It is just eight in the morning".
"I'm sorry your highness but you really need to wake up."
"Elsa... You're disturbing my sleep". Replied the drowsy princess.
"Your highness, please you have a pretty tight schedule today. And her majesty would get pretty angry at me if you don't wake up now. Please don't let me lose my job". Pleaded the Lady in waiting.
"I love it when you beg Elsa... " she giggles.
"Okay, that does it, princess. " Elsa signals the guards standing outside the princess's chambers and they open the door for her while smiling.
"Same old, same old. The princess and Elsa, what a pair." One of the guards spoke smiling to the other guard.
"Princess Dawn of Grendel, heaven knows I've been patient enough. Get up young lady".. said the angry Lady in waiting."
"Ohhh kill joy. Well, I've got to give it to you, your patience lasted umm ten minutes. You're improving".
"Princess Dawn."
Dawn covers her head with the cover sheets, an evil grin was registered on Elsa's face and she drags the cover sheets off Dawn's body. She moves closer to the window and open the drapes letting the sun rays enter the room more.
"Close them, Elsa, this is not fair".
"Life is not fair. You are a princess and with it come responsibilities. You have your dance class, etiquette class, history class, strategy class and training. You need to get up. I can't do this every day. Please". Begged her lady in waiting.
"Loosen up Elsa".
She snuck up close to Elsa while she was distracted with her thoughts and use her pillow to hit her head.
She giggles." You should have seen your face earlier Elsa... "
"You just... huh princess.. " before she completes her statement, Dawn hits her on the head with her pillow again and laughs in the bed. Elsa takes another pillow and draws closer to where Dawn was on the bed.
"Oh no, you don't."
"Ohh yes I do Dawn."
"No noo you do not dare Elsa."
"Is that a dare Dawn... You know me, I am terrible at backing down".
"Ohhh I hate this side of you".
"Nooe you love it princess, and you love bringing it out, get ready."
She smiles as she lands the pillow on the princess, and hits her trice. Feeling satisfied, she smiles and turns around. Dawn gets up and hit her with her pillow again.
" Pillow fight... Haha hahaha haa haha..come on Elsa, admit it, you love it" she says to Elsa as she hits her with her pillow and Elsa hits her with another pillow. They engage in a pillow fight, suddenly the doors swing open and the girls froze in their stance ready to pounce on each other, but the eyes glaring at them made the pause.
"What in the world is the meaning of this.? "
"Your majesty. I'm sorry. " Elsa quickly regains her composure and bows to the queen.
"The princess should be having her bath now, instead you both are here indulging yourselves in a child's game. " said the queen.
"Yes, your majesty. I am very sorry, it won't happen again. Please excuse me. "
She exits the bed-chamber to the bathroom to prepare the princess a bath.
"Mother, you know Elsa wasn't at fault here. I made her do it. "
"Is that the morning greeting I get from my one and only daughter?.
"Sorry, mother. Good morning. How do you do?" Asked her caring daughter.
"I am fine my dear. You need to get ready, today is an important day. "
"What's happening, today mother". asked her curious daughter.
"Well, you just wait and see. Elsa, is the bath ready? "
"Yes your majesty, all done". replied Elsa.
"Okay, I'll leave you to the task Elsa. See you at breakfast my love. " the queen said and walks out of the door.
"Phew.. " she sighs and turns to look at Dawn.
"Well, that went well I guess" she smiles at Elsa. "I'm sorry I got you into trouble." Dawn apologizes to Elsa.
"It is okay, princess. I should not have allowed you to sway me. It is my fault, as your lady in waiting I should know best. Now come your bath is ready just the way you like it. "
"What would I do without you Elsa" she gets up from the bed and moved towards her bathtub.
"Literally nothing your highness " she laughs at her reply.
"Honestly everything dear" she smiles back at Elsa. "That's why I learnt behind mother's back." she seems thoughtful and suddenly broke out of her thoughts when Elsa lightly touched her shoulder.
"Your highness".
"My my. Enough chatting already. We have alot of things to do".
CHAPTER 47“I cannot promise you riches and fireworks as grand as this, but all I have to give you now, is my undying love for you.”“Eric…”As soon as his name left her lips, he pushed his head forward and surprisingly she found herself not backing out from him but leaning closer till their nose brushed against each other.With eyes fluttering close, Eric snaked his free hand up to gently cup her face in his hands and his lips captured hers in a hot kiss.BOOM!Several fireworks flew into the sky at that moment further beautifying the scene. From afar they looked like a couple in
CHAPTER 46"It's beautiful."Elsa appreciated the scenery and the thought behind everything. A bright smile danced on her lips as she turned to look at Eric. "I love it," her eyes twinkle with delight from sheer happiness. "Thank you."Finally, Nick let out a long sigh and returned her smile."I'm glad you like it, but that's not all.""It's not? There is more?" She asked again. To her, this was already more than enough, but here he was saying there was more.Right now she felt free like a bird, especially with the gentle breeze of the cool afternoon sun blowing against her skin and ruffling her hair. Elsa took a lung full of clean fresh air and exhaled loudly."There is more. You won't have to wait long though, as it is about to start."Elsa's brows creased in confusion, trying to fathom what other surprised he had but his charming expression gave her quite the assurance and as he stood, she followed him, moving close to his side.She followed the line of his eyes and her eyes landed
CHAPTER 45By the time they had left the store of the fortune teller, Elsa was already red like a tomato. She could not help or stop herself from blushing crazy when her mind played back the lady’s words.Nick felt amused watching how far she could turn red from embarrassment and he didn’t fail to take note of every reaction.They walked on, enjoying the views in the marke
CHAPTER 44“YES! Ahh, haha–ha~”Her short laughter filled the vicinity as she bobbed up and down on her feet with her hands raised in the air right above her.Watching her like this, Nick could help but get more and more captivated by this new side of hers, her childlike side and he loved it. Loved the way she became free with him.“It is time to fight?” His cool voice brought her back from her chirpy state and she landed on her feet, with her playful smile now completely gone.He felt bad he had to stop her. E honestly loved the way she spread her wings like a free bird but then time was running out and he knew she would soon go. He also had another engagement to handle.“I hate that I am the one to say this, but let’s move on?” he asked, gesturing with his head for them to move to their previous destination.“It’s okay. I guess I got carried away and behaved unladylike. For
CHAPTER 43"Four fingers," he started and Dawn blinked at him in confusion. "When you hold, turn your wrist outward and release."Before she could comprehend further, he moved his hand, so he was raising it to his back and his hands grabbed on to three arrows and brought them forward with him.Right before her eyes, she watched in full display how a three arrow shot was carried out.As he said, he turned his wrist holding the arrows and string facing outward and placed them on the bow just above his other hand on the bow.He turned the bow a bit, tilting it to the right and then released his hold.Swoosh!
CHAPTER 42At the last sentence, her face dropped. This didn't go unnoticed by Nick who was staring at her beautiful face and noticed the worry and sadness from her tone and face."Hey," he called out to her. Dawn raised her head to look at him. "What's wrong?" He asked, his already calm voice becoming softer and more pleasant to her ears in a soothing way.Dawn shook her head before replying him. "No, it is nothing. I just remembered something.""Are you sure?" He clarified once more.She nodded at him and averted her gaze in a different direction other than his face.He knew she wasn't completely honest with h
CHAPTER 41“Do not cry, my love. It would be okay, Dawn would finally come to realize that all we do, we do because we love her.”“I hope so too. I miss my baby,” Amelia cried, letting the tears she was fighting back,
CHAPTER 40"Hello there, I thought you wouldn't come,” Eric replied her, with a cute smile spread across his face, making him all the more handsome.Elsa who was still catching her breath couldn’t help but feel her heart flutter at his smile.“Were you having so little faith in me?” She asked him. He could sense a hint of laughter in her voice and his smile broadened the more.“No, I did not have little faith in you. It is just that you weren’t sure if you would come or not.” Eric replied to her question and proceeded to help her off the horse.“Ughh, there you go. Nice and easy.”“Thanks. So what are we going to be doing now that someone succeeded in stealing me away from my home and brought me here.”Elsa’s cheeks turned pink at her own words, blushing at the thought that his sweet words earned him her coming here.“Umm, let us see,” his fingers tapped on his chin lazily in a thinking manner. The next minute his eyes lit us as though an idea suddenly popped up in his head. “Ahh, I kn
CHAPTER 39Dawn took some steps towards Nick, carefully not to make any noise.AHEM!!Nick whipped his head in her direction, and upon seeing her, he finally relaxed. He had not thought she would show up any longer and resigned his fate.She came down from her horse and led it in his direction. Nick moved as well, taking several steps in her direction.They walked up to each other and stopped in the middle. Rather than saying anything to her, he rubbed her horse's mane first before returning his gaze to her and greeted her horse."I missed you," he said to the horse, nuzzling his face on it.'Is he trying to make me jealous?' she thought to herself.Needless to say, even though she knew he was doing it intentionally, she just rolled her eyes and walked past him, leaving him to tend to his newfound love.Not getting the reaction he had hoped for, he spoke to her, his attention still on her horse. "I see someone is jealous
