together.
“C’mon pretty boy, I’ll explain on the way, you just show me to this dinner, and things will clear up.” I smirk.
Oh, this will be good.
Chapter seven
Anna
Demetri started laughing at me as he led me through the hallway. I punched his arm.
“Ow! Sorry! Geez! But you have to admit it’s funny!” He tried to reason. I had just explained my situation to him, and the dodo bird thought it was funny.
“No it’s not! You try waking up in some room you don’t know only to find someone wants to make you look like Jigglypuff the Pokémon ate you! Eventful yes. Funny? Ask me again when I get out of here.” I scowled at the black marble floor. He chuckled.
“I really like you…but as a friend! Don’t flip me again!” He said quickly when he saw my challenging gaze. I smirked at him and jumped up to pat his head. I really hated being this short sometimes. He laughed when I missed, and I gave up with a huff.
“Awww, you’re too cute! I just want to stick you in my pocket!” He cooed patronizingly. I stuck my tongue out at him. We made it to these double doors that went all the way up to at least 15 feet. Wow! I was about to open the door when he stopped me.
“Wait, wait, wait, wait! I have to see their reaction! So stay here real quick and then come in after you hear the okay.” He said hurriedly. I shrugged and said okay.
Prince Zachias
I sat there bored at the long table as these girls tried to shamelessly flirt with me. We were waiting on the last one to arrive before we could start and eat. I saw some girls sitting across from me and I politely smiled at them at them and they giggled back. Wow. I then see Demetri rush in and I give him a confused look as he sat next to me, since I saved him a seat next to me.
“Where’s your girl my boy?” My father asked at the end of table. He had to talk loudly since the table was annoyingly long. I could tell Demetri was trying not to laugh as he struggled to talk.
“Your Highness, she is just outside those doors.” He answered. I bent closer to him.
“Why didn’t she walk in with you like the other guards did?” I asked lowly. He tried not to laugh again.
“I wanted to see your reaction.” He managed to get out. I quirked an eyebrow as he motioned for the butler to open the door. Everyone gasped especially the girls. Demetri was trying hard not to crack up.
The girl before us was beautiful. I was wondering why everyone seemed shocked, as all I could see was her face, and it was angelic and graceful looking. Then I looked at her attire and knew why everyone gasped.
She was not in a formal gown like every woman in here. She was in jeans and a t-shirt, with simple shoes. But I thought she pulled it off quite well. I couldn’t even focus on her clothes that well, as her eyes held me captive. I wanted to know where she would be sitting and saw the only available seat was just to the right of me. I wanted to grin at that.
She did a playful smirk and literally skipped over! She definitely had a playful side and her eyes shown a mischievous glint to them, letting me know she was not to be messed with. She smacked the butler’s hand away that was trying to pull out her chair.
“I have to hands, so I can do this. Thank you though.” She smiled kindly at him. He showed shock but held it in. No one had uttered a single word, as it was so silent I swear I could hear heartbeats. This mischievous angel then spoke looking at the other girls.
“So, how long did it take you all to get ready because it took me five minutes!” She smiled at them. Some laughed under their breaths while others scowled. One girl who had black hair and looked particularly nasty spoke to her.
“Well…it shows. But if it only took you that long, then why were you so late?” She said in a squeaky voice. Ow, her voice
