The Forgotten Princess

Alicia Rosalyn Von Heist is the youngest daughter of King Edward of Alvannia. She is an illegitimate child born from a maid in the castle her father has fancied. After her mother died when she was young her father took her home and ‘adopted’ her. Because of her low birth and illegitimacy she was neglected by her father the king and bullied by her stepmother the queen and her step-siblings. When she was 16 years old a war broke out with the neighboring country of Grandcrest. The war lasted for two long years and the two countries have made a truce at the end. The Grandcest empire demanded a princess to be married to the young king. It is said that the king of Grandcrest specifically asked for the hand of Alicia. Alicia was 18 years old when she was sent to Grandcrest as the fiancee of the young king who was said to be a cold blooded evil tyrant, King Regaleon of the Grandcrest empire.

Engagement Party (1)

It was the day of the engagement party. All people in the palace are so busy preparing.

I was still lying in bed. It was still early and the sun has just came up. I am still sleepy after last night. I remember last night when Regaleon visited me. We were at my veranda, admiring the night sky full of stars and the moon. Then Regaleon got down in one knee and took a small box from his pocket. He opened the box, took a diamond ring out and proposed to me.

Remembering last night, my heart was thumping loudly in my heart. I can't resist screaming in delight. And because I don't want to alarm the maids outside, I burry my head under the pillows.

"Ayyeeee..." I made a controlled scream. I was kicking my feet in the mattress as if my whole body was being tickled.

I have prepared everything, so I am sure that this evening will all go according to plan. I plan to stay in bed for a couple of minutes.

"Princess, good morning." Tricia came barging inside my room full of energy.
