Mina_Upton5dCommentedMe too, because pretty much everyone knocks first. Might be her dad. 🤔
Suddenly her door flung open a little too forcefully. Bel jerked out of bed, frightened, wondering who it could be. She doubted just anyone would barge into her room like that.- Mina_Upton5dCommented
Princesses don't really get the luxury to choose who their husbands are.
Bel grimaced and looked away from her mother, wondering what part of her apology said she was happy about the marriage. - Mina_Upton5dCommented
Staying up late to entertain the in-laws is what the queen has been doing.
"I know, but staying up late had an effect, not to mention the other circumstances also took their toll on her." - Mina_Upton7dCommented
For real, sister Hazel is right. If you have to do this, make some demands!
"It does," Hazel insisted. "You might not have a choice about marrying Prince Davien, but you can decide how everything else goes. You can make demands both to our parents and the vampires. You're only missing one chess piece, not the whole." - Mina_Upton7dCommented
I sure Bel would not be happy if the roles were reversed. She would try to help Hazel, but Hazel wouldn't fight it, I'm sure.
"Liar," Hazel accused. - Mina_Upton8dCommented
It might be too late for sorries.
"I am sorry, father," she said as he placed his hand on the handle. "It was not my intention for things to turn out like this." - Mina_Upton10dCommented
I don't think he'll play into that. You severely messed up, girl.
She wasn't going to give up without a fight. If she couldn't be direct, she could tug at her father's emotions. She could play the perfect role of the victim that she was. - Mina_Upton10dCommented
You kind of went about it in the wrong way.
There was no one on her side. She was alone in her defiance, and by the looks of things, only straws were left of it. - Mina_Upton10dCommented
Trying to negotiate.
"No, not until you get the guards off me." - Mina_Upton11dCommented
Right, don't be too selfish that those who care for you are the ones taking the brunt of your actions.
Hazel looked torn for a few seconds. "I am worried about you, okay? I don't want you to anger Father. I want you to have as much choice in this matter as possible. That's why I am hoping that in time you'll see how much this benefits not just you." - Mina_Upton19dCommented
Oh, he won't. I'm sure he intends to make her fall in love with him.
"However, we would probably still be able to keep the alliance if he is the one who ends things." - Mina_Upton21dCommentedCh 9 Hazel
- Mina_Upton21dCommented
Of course, Hazel feels like she's a selfless person.
"Yeah," Bel said, absentmindedly. "I suppose I do." - Mina_Upton21dCommented
Ummm.... well, at least she has some idea of why she's needed.
"You are too trusting Hazel. He doesn't even know me, he has absolutely no reason to want to marry me. They probably just want my magic," Bel replied. - Mina_Upton21dCommented"What if he is a terrible husband? I will be stuck in a marriage that I hate. Why do I have to do this? Surely, we can have some alliance with them without me marrying him?"

Awe... <3
"Let's go together, then." He said.
