The Crownless Royal

“What did you just do there, young lady?” Her father’s hard voice echoed in the small room that she had just stepped into, breaking her temporary freedom. She didn’t know that she was being followed. “You acted like you’re not a princess in front of the prince!” He hissed.He locked the door, afraid that someone would hear them. Behind him is her mother, just looking at her with her cold eyes, as if Hannah was just a commoner working for them. “I just did what I thought was right, father.” Hannah said calmly, as she fixed her gown. “Thought right?! That’s absurd! The prince was insulted because of your behavior!” Prince George raised his hand and made Hannah close her eyes, waiting for the slap.This is also normal in the Ruiz household. Physical abuse was a normal punishment, especially if you didn’t meet their expectations or if you didn’t do well.But after a few minutes, a slap wasn’t heard. “You should be thankful; the Prince of Norway is looking for us right now.” He said har

“You piece of disappointment!” Hannah bit her lip as the sting on her left cheek from her father’s slap covered her entire being. As soon as her parents saw her when she went inside the palace, she was dragged until the limousine that brought them home. It took days to travel from Norway to Andorra via land, but since her parents were not in a good mood, they called a chopper on. Her father was fuming mad that he didn’t talk while traveling. It looked like her father had enough of her mistakes since as soon as she was dragged into their house, her father immediately lands his hand on hers, without minding the people who were around. Even her own mother couldn’t care less. “I already warned you, young lady. Your only task is to shut your mouth and act like a good girl.” Her mother’s voice was void of emotion, as if she was just giving her instructions. “But you still failed. You’re such a disappointment to our family.” “Do you know what those people say about what you’ve done?” Her

Prince Joachim, who was sitting on Hannah’s left, looked at her confused when she turned her whole body on his side. She could feel that everyone at the table stood to greet the newcomers.“Hannah.”She bit her lower lip and flinched when her mother called her. Hannah tried to relax her expression as she slowly stood and went to her mother's side, who was looking at her incredulously.“These are Prince Alexios and his siblings, Princess Olympia and Prince Ezio of Greece.” Hannah smiled, still looking directly at them, and curtsied.Your Highness, we’re sorry for being tardy on this important event. We encountered a minor accident on the road." Prince Alexios reasoned ashe kissed the back of Hannah’s offered hand.“Call me Hannah. And I hope you are all okay. Your Highnesses’ well-being is more important than anything.” She commented. It’s actually a sincere comment, but she bet her life that her parents were very proud of her reply. Hannah mentally rolled her eyes. However, it looke

She has also felt it since when Prince Alexios sat beside her a while ago. However, she shrugged it off, not wanting to assume anything from it. Princess Astrrid, however, pointed it out, making her conscious of anything she does. They were having lunch at Celler d'en Toni, which was also in Andorra la Vella. Minister Kal introduces different main dishes that Hannah already knew since they were also served in the palace sometimes. The vintage style of the restaurant is evidence that it has been present since the early times. The restaurant was passed from generation to generation; thus, the menu has an authentic taste that the customers always love, especially Hannah. The restaurant was one of the country's tourism prides because it had been around since the beginning. Hannah and Astrrid were enjoying chatting while waiting for the main dishes when she felt those shivers. That just meant that he was staring again. She sighed and put down her utensils. “Do you have something to say

“The scheduled tour in our country will push through until the end of the week. But that’s it.” Her father continued.All the people at the table looked confused as they stared at each other.“May I ask what’s the reason for the postponement, His Majesty?” Prince Henrik asked seriously.“The Palace of Norway contacted us.” Everyone looked at Princes Flint and Jet, who just continued eating. It looked like they already knew about this. “They wanted the princes to be present during the choosing of the bride for Prince Flint, which will be happening next month.”Murmurs filled the table. Hannah can’t help but glance at the mentioned prince. He was still continuing to eat as if they were not talking about him. She can’t read his expression. When Hannah looked around, her gaze was drawn to Catalina, who was hurling daggers at her, prompting Hannah to roll her eyes and return to her meal.“What’s the rush though? It's not like Flint is so old for them to marry him off early.” Princess Akari
