Novel & Cerita A Story Of A Princess

I mirth at my own innuendos, walking behind her to get me - fixed. The cool marble of the palace stings my feet. I prefer the bare ground that tells me the reality, not the comfort of the marbles that conceal the dirty secrets of the palace. I don't hate my life - I would never hate it. It’s luxurious, fulfilling, powerful - yet constricting, and sometimes demeaning. As a princess, I am expected to be soft, and poised. People expect me to bow down and be shy, accept any prince that shows interest in me. Huh, but I built myself different - different enough to fight the prejudices of the palace.

“Alright, Princess, lesson time.” “Lesson?” I echoed. “Yes,” she said with a grin. “We are teaching you how to speak English.” I frowned. “But I already speak English.” She waved her hand. “You speak fancy English. Royal English. Drama English. We need you speaking like a normal person. Not like a walking Shakespeare play.” “I do not know what a Shakespeare is,” I said slowly. “Is it a creature?” “No,” she laughed. “He was a writer.” “Was he royal?” I asked.

Arabella said, smoothing Raina’s messy hair. Raina nodded solemnly. She cleared her throat and began to tell a story about a princess who lived in a castle made of chocolate and had a pet dragon who was afraid of the dark. It made no sense at all, but Adrian and Arabella listened like it was the most important speech in the world. Raina’s story ended with the dragon discovering that the dark wasn’t actually scary if someone stayed beside you long enough. “And then the princess gave him three nightlights,” Raina declared proudly, her eyes already growing heavy with sleep. “One for under the bed, one for the bathroom, and one for emergencies.”

At her mother’s eyes looking back at him. “What kind of story,” he said. She said with excitement in her voice. Her favorite story. “Pretty princess storry,” she said. “With long hair.” He looked at her. “Okay,” he said. He thought for a moment. Then — “Once,” he said, “there was a princess.” “With long hair,” Liyana confirmed. “With very long hair,” he agreed. “Dark. Past her waist.” Liyana nodded. Correct detail. She approved.

He eyes crinkling at the sides as she smiles at me, this story she has told me many times before. “How are you Anya? It must have been hard being in the dungeons” She shakes her head “Gave me more time to relax” I smile at her, she may be old but she is tuff. “I saw the new king you know” I frown at her confused, she stands up and comes around to stand in front of me. Placing a hand on my stomach “He is strong, and he will lead this kingdom into a new age. An age of coexisting with other species” I place my hand over hers “You can feel he is a boy?”

"When did she call?" “Did the princesa win your heart?” I scoff. “My heart? I would need to have a heart for someone to win it, no?” “You are right, you don’t have a heart because she has already taken it… so go home, she’s waiting for you. I know our rule is not to be there the morning after… but that’s for other women, not your reina.” Mi reina… “Don’t get ahead of yourself. I just treated our guest well. Showed her exactly what this island has that England does not.”

Emily could get surprised; she kept mute for a minute; her tongue seemed so heavy to roll words out from her mouth, but she had to talk. "My princess, it seems you have forgotten in a hurry that your brother was denied his birthright, seemingly because he made his intentions known to the council that he is in love with a commoner and has decided to marry her. "Is that the same thing you want to happen to you?" Emily asked her carefully.

etc. I spent five hours in front of the desk and under the light of the lamp in different positions, nourishing my intellect with those books. I read about German history and a very interesting legend about a princess who was raised as a bird by vultures, eventually becoming a falcon. A princess who was held captive so she would never escape the nest. A princess with white wings and eyes with the entrance to paradise. A princess who was pushed out of the nest before being taught to fly.

I feel like I'm one of those bullies who takes advantage of their assets and make other people feel like losers. I maybe a Princess-like born with such fortune in front of me, but I'm still a human. I am also full of flaws and imperfections like any other person out there. Maybe I am a modern princess, but not in fairytales. --------- Third person's POV Sylvia couldn't help but lose an owl laugh because of what she heard.

But Elara tasted the poison beneath every smile. She swept into the hall beside her parents, Kael just behind, her gown of deep green catching the candlelight. Nobles bowed their heads, though their eyes followed her like hawks. Already the whispers had begun: The princess and the Ironfang heir. A match written by politics… or by fate. Her stomach twisted.
