“Tell me Mother. What was written in the letter?” Princess Annabelle asked again. She was afraid of hearing it but life left her with no choice. She needed to know the truth before her father wakes up.“The Emperor asked for your sister’s hand in marriage. I don’t know what to do anymore” the queen buried her head in her hands. Crying in front of Annabelle, made her weak but it was better than tearing in presence of Rania.“But that is no bad news mother. Rania liked prince Alaric right from the beginning” Annabelle said, as she smiled forcefully. “She will be glad to marry the man she love.”“You don’t understand, do you?” The queen dragged the blanket from the edge of the bed and covered her husband. “This is not a normal marriage. Rania always wanted a love marriage. I even promised her many years ago that the man she will marry will be madly in love with her.”An

  On the fifteenth day, I rushed to the throne room when  the messenger arrived from Aragón. He said the reply would have reach us few days ago but there was a little argument about the wedding. “What happened?” My father asked. “Why the delay?”“Prince Ivar. He was sick so the Emperor had to wait for him to recover first, my Lord”  Antonio answered with a bow. He went to where my father was sitting and handed a letter to him.My heart beat faster as he struggled to open the letter. My eyes moved with his, while the letter was read silently. Was the news bad?“Tomorrow?” The king asked with a surprise look. I wonder what was the content of the letter!I moved closer as the messenger knelt down in front of the throne.“My king, that is the final decision of the Emperor. We have no choice than to obey” he told us. “Se

*****Princess Rania's POV.We traveled for days. Most of the time, we took rest in villages. Of course, They received and hosted us well. Every one wanted to dine with the world's Emperor. When ever I was asked about my husband, the empress was the first to answer. She Interrupted me in such a way that I became suspicious of her. They were hiding something away from me.On the eighteenth day, we arrived in Aragón. No body told me that but I knew at once it's was the capital. The buildings were beautiful and artwork dominated the city. From the window of my carriage, I could tell that the people were happy to receive me. But was I ready to be their prince's wife?No. I refused the prince even before we got married. Nothing was going to change my mind after marriage. Once I reach the palace, I promised to be polite and ask for privacy, till further notice. He bought me like a slave. Distance was his punishment.“My Lady&rdq

Alissa came back with a big frown on her face. She looked like she was slapped by a ghost. Speaking about ghosts, it seemed they existed in this palace. Although it's was big and beautiful, the palace still lack something. I couldn't picture what it's was but the people here were not really happy. Every one looked like they were going to die soon. I wondered how my dear husband might look?Alissa passed over and whispered to the queen whose face clouded with confusion. (Ever since we arrived, she carried that same expression.)Again, she stood up and left me there. People came around to congratulate me. In the midst of those happy ones, were the sad faces telling me welcome to hell, Princess. The young princesses who came gave me a look that stirred jealously. They said congratulations to you, prince Ivar’s bride. On the other hand, I knew they were wishing me quick death, so that they could take my place.I wished they were bold enough to tell this to the

**Princess Rania’s POV.I got downstairs and the women of the harem stared at me. Alissa who was knitting a cloth was surprised to see me. I walked to where she was and sat next to her. “ What are you knitting, Alissa?”“A table cover for the empress” She answered, fixing the needle under the drawings on the cloth.“I see.. please teach me too” I pleaded.“No my lady” Alissa refused. “By the way what are you doing here? It is your first night with the prince.”I looked at them pitifully. They did not know the man who they called Ivar. He was wicked and heartless. He made me shivered in the room like a Christmas chicken. “The prince sent me out of his room. That’s why I came here to join you, ladies.”The women laughed. They whispered among their selves but I did not care. Alissa was not pleased at all. She grabbed my hand and took me to the corner of
