Dawn’s pov?
I looked down bashfully. I have no idea there was a dance made especially for princesses.
This is ridiculous!..
I looked down perturbed…what do I do?
“You don’t know how to dance?” He asked puzzled.
“I…I never learned” I whispered.
“Seriously?…Even Xenia knows all five courses in ballet. Anyways, what else did i expect when you ba-rely act like a princess?” He muttered and got up from his seat.
He walked painstakingly to where I was and took the stick from me dropping it on the floor.
He gently wrapped his hands around my wa-ist and drew me close to his body.
“Our wedding is next week and I would like to waltz dance with you. I’ve never danced in public though” He said and I stared blandly into his face.
Why on earth must we dance???
He moved one of his leg to the left and I followed suit. He made another move and I joined him.
He took his time teaching me how to move and I tried to follow up.
And crazy enough…there was no music pla-ying but we were dancing like we were feeling it somewhere dee-per.
I thought this was supposed to be some kind of punishment.
He suddenly cu-pp-ed my left cheek and placed a ki-ss on my li-ps.
“Are you hungry?” He asked softly and I felt my cheeks turning tomato red.
“A little” I replied and he smiled and removed his hand from my cheek.
We held hands as he walked me to the garden.
Manuel’s pov?
“…We’ll have to carry out our plans before the wedding. We must make sure the wedding does not hold – so, we’ll kick off with the training today” I stated and everyone in the room nodded.
They dispersed leaving Castro and I alone in the room.
“I don’t trust that woman – Kalani. She haven’t told us how she new we were here to eliminate the king” He peeved behind me.
“Oh, will you relax Castro. The woman has skills and thats what we nee-d to hold off the King’s guards”.
“Whatever…but don’t say I didn’t warn you. Its not too late to cancel this plan and head back home” he chipped.
“I’m going to push throu-ghwith this plan whether the devil likes it or not…so leave me the hell alone” I bickered and walked out of the room holding the map.
Simone’s pov?
I entered the room and sat on the bed feeling tired though I only walked to the dinning and back.
The pregnancy was getting heavier day by day and I wish I can just get this over with. The child should just come already..
I leaned back on the heap of pillows and it seemed to relax me a bit.
My two maids walked in carrying covered plates. Well, the breakfast wasn’t enough and I nee-ded more.
They dropped the tray on the bed and uncovered the plates.
I picked up the spoon but instantly felt a sharp pain that drove me crazy….
“Aargh!” I growled and let go of the spoon.
“Your highness…what’s wrong?” the maids asked and I took de-ep breaths.
“I…I don’t—” I paused feeling more excruciating pains around my abdomen.
“I’ll go get the doctor!” One of the maids rasped but I stopped her.
“No…get the king!” I growled and she ran out of the room.
“Have some water…my queen” The maid said handing me a gl@$$ of water.
I took it and drank a gulp. The pains returned and I continued to strain.

Dawn’s pov?
The food on the table was so much that it could feed a battalion of soldiers.
There were some gra-pes and strawberries too.
I started eating in a slow pace though I was famished.
King Lee seemed to be less hungry as he pla-yed with his food. He picked the berries and threw them to roll on the table.
*My Lord* A voice called from behind and I looked to see Raphael – his personal guard walking in.
He headed straight to the king and whispered something in his ear.
I stopped eating and paid attention to what’s going on…
The king stood up and glanced at me.
“I’ll se-nd for you later” He said and left with the guard.
Geez! What’s going on now?
Everyday is filled with drama here at this castle.

I arrived at the bedroom feeling dowdy.
I saw a figure lying on the bed. I went closer and was beyond shocked to meet Caroline on the bed.
She was covered in scars and blood.
What happened to her?
“Caroline…are you okay?” I asked touching her.
Her eyes opened slowly and she stared at me with weak eyes.
Oh God! She’s really hurt.
I tou-ched her on her forehead and felt her weakness.
It drained my energy as I realized I was healing her. I gritted my teeth and didnt let go.
I couldn’t hold on any longer as I slumped on the floor pa-nting.
“Princess Anna!” Caroline called and held onto me.
The scars on her skin had cleared and she looks stronger.
She helped me sit on the bed and the frailness I felt was too much for me to control.
“Your highness…how did you do it? You’re a healer?” She asked wide-eyed.

Dawn’s pov?
I couldn’t say anything as I curled myself up on the bed exhausted from healing Caroline.
She stared at me with shocked eyes.
“Thank you, your highness…should I get you a gl@$$ of water?” She stuttered.
“No…I’m okay…its you that’ll promise not to tell anyone I have healing powers. Let this be between us for now” I said with muffled breaths.
“I promise, anything at all to protect you” She jibed and sat beside me on the bed.
I kept pa-nting and she covered me up with the duvet.
I’ve never felt so weak in my entire life.
What’s wrong with me?…
I closed my eyes still reacting to the frailness. The atmosphere was blur and I struggled to breath steadily.
Simone’s pov?
I was relived that the king was here along with the doctor.
“Simone…you nee-d to calm down. You’re just having contractions” The doctor stated and I took a de-ep breath.
“What can I do to stop it?” I asked alarmed.
“You can’t stop it…it comes before delivery” He added and I growled.
“Can she have the baby here in the castle? I don’t want her to go to the hospital” King Lee chimed gazing at my tummy.
“Of course…There’s no nee-d transporting her since there’s guarantee of safe delivery. Both of them are healthy”.
I screamed feeling more pains and King Lee rushed to me. He held my hand and ru-bbed my back.
“Sorry” He muttered and I nodded sorrowfully.
He’s even apologizing because his child is involved. Oh mercies!
I have to deliver this child the best way I can. I don’t want to disappoint him.
Dawn’s pov?
“Princess Anna” Caroline called and my eyes drifted to her.
“Someone’s here to see you – your wedding instructor” She stated and I furrowed my brows.
Wedding instructor??
I pulled myself up from the bed and cleaned the tears that slid from my cheek.
I have been busy thinking about what my fate would be after the King discovers the whole truth.
Caroline helped me with a little makeup to brighten my moody face and then, she escorted me to the hall where the so called dance instructor was waiting.
Her hair was ravishly packed and a stunning makeup was dressed on her face. The heels she wore were damn long and her dressing said it all…
“Duchess Tetrazzini….she’s here” Caroline spoke softly and the lady gazed at me with beady eyes.
Her eyes rolled from my toes up to my head. Amazing…
“Good afternoon” I greeted with a bow.
“Such terrible bowing posture!” She remarked and I stood erect.
What…
My bowing is terrible?
“Young miss, during your wedding with the King…kings upon kings will flaunt throu-ghthat gate. Prepared to see how you’ll prese-nt yourself…One little mistake and you’ll be called a who-re – thereby tarnishing the image of the beloved king.
“From what I’ve seen so far…I am not impressed. The crown on your head is so casual and less sophisticating” She blabbed.
“That’s because I’m indoors and there’s no occasion going on” I replied dumbfounded.
“Giving useless excuses, my dear. Now…we’ll start with your walk. I know its not necessary cause you’ve been taught how to walk all your life…
But I want to see you walk!” She strained.
I gulped and composed myself.
The lady is so strict…I’ve got to impress her so she doesn’t suspect that I’m not truly a princess.
I started walking just like I see Simone and Alicia walk.
With their head up high and their hands flaring. They walk slow but painstakingly.
“Not bad…Now, we’ll practice other etiquettes before moving down to the dancing courses” She said and I cringed.

A table and chair was brou-ght with some things on top.
“Pour me some tea, Anna” Duchess Tetrazzini ordered and I carried the coffee pot….
I placed it over the little cu-p and poured slowly.
“Ouch!” I screamed when the hot tea splashed on my skin.
“Oh my, oh my….you br@inless rat” she mumbled and I twitched.
King Lee calls me br@inless rat too?
Maybe that’s an insult for royalties…
“You do it gently…” She growled and took the tea lot from me.
She poured some tea in another cu-p and it didnt even spill or splash on bit…
Wow.
“Royalties sort for perfection, Anna. Its what we both are. Now…let’s move to the eaten aspect” She said Andi sat on the chair.
There was a plate before me and forks and spoons by the side…and two knifes.
I hope its not what am thinking….
“Imagine there’s turkey salad on that plate….what’s the first cutlery you should pick up?” She asked gazing at me.
I stared up at Caroline…
What do I do???
