A knock on a door was heard when Kaylee suddenly opens her eyes. She frown and fixed her dress.

"Crown Princess, a commoner named Merlin wants to meet you. Will–" She was about to complete her sentences when the door abruptly opens and Kaylee runs outside.

"Princess! Your hair!" The servant wants to chase her but she was already out of her sight. She bit her lips.

Oh no, the Princess looks like she just woken up.

Kaylee runs while easily comb her hair using her fingers. Her crown is in her mouth while she comb and put it in her head after she comb her hair.

She stops running when she saw the guards guard the door of the throne room. When the guard saw Kaylee, they curtsy and open the door immediately. Kaylee walks inside and saw Merlin kneeling in front of the King.

Kaylee smiled. "Merlin, you may rise." She said while her eyes was on her father. King Lincoln frown. He did not know why but Kaylee seems to be bias towards the commoner.

"Young Miss!" Merlin happily run towards Kaylee and hug her not minding the fact that the King is here.

Kaylee hug her back. "Good that your back."

After she meet Merlin, she saw her as a hardworking and a very loyal person even in hardship she never given up. So, she started to teach her to protect herself. Kaylee was sure Merlin is a honest girl that will never going to betray her because her eyes was sincere as if she can saw what's inside her heart. But she still need to observe her.

The end of the month, Kaylee make her status higher and tell her real identity —Crown Princess of Lincoln Kingdom. It made her shocked and suddenly bow her head.

"No need for curtsy. Whenever you see me, just greet me as usual. Also, the day on my coronation day, go to my castle and find me there. Do not forget to show this token so that no one will hurt you." Kaylee said and give her a jade token and shows that Merlin is an important person of the owner of the token.

Merlin loosen her hug and step aback.

"Merlin greets Young Miss." She said and curtsy properly.

Kaylee nodded. "Rise." Kaylee looks at her father. "Father, she is the one who guide me when I am not in the Lincoln Kingdom. She is a very hardworking and loyal girl. I first saw her that she was being bullied by the servant of young lady so I keep her in and be my personal maid."

He nodded as he listen to her stories. He was quiet satisfied with what she choose. Since he knows that the princess did not have  permanent servant by her side because of her judgement of people, it was hard to find a perfect candidate to be her personal maid. Now that she choose outside and far from his expectation, he was quite surprised. He did not know if this was faith or what. The only thing he knew that Kaylee is like a Phoenix. So many good fortune comes her way.

He wished that this will not be a curse but a gift instead.

"Do what you think is right. Today is your coronation day.  Make sure you have a good rest. We will begin our coronation after your sister's coronation day." He said.

"Do not worry, father.  I am now a big girl and soon will be crowned as Queen. But I want to see my sister's coronation day.  It will be so interesting." Kaylee said while remembering the past.

"We will do as you wish, but first change your dress." He said while looking at Kaylee head to toe. "Even if you look so adorable right now, you still look like a cute mess." He added.

Kaylee was stunned as she giggles. "I will take that as a compliment." She said and hurry back to go to her bedroom with Merlin.

"You brat! That was a compliment!" Kaylee heard him shouting behind them. Merlin can't help to smile widely that her teeth are showing. "Young Miss, your father is doting you so much." She said with a satisfying smile.

"Don't call me young miss. Right now, I am a Princess." She reminded Merlin.

"Yes, Youn– Princess." Merlin put it in her head. She remembered that one time young miss said that to be alert in everything. Even if it is a very tiny small move, we cannot make mistake or else that tiny small move can be equal to a destruction.

Right now, young miss has her real golden hair without a make up that makes her beauty be naturally shown to others. Her young miss sure is one of the top beauty... No no no... Not a top beauty,  it should be TOP GODDESS... The number one goddess she had ever saw. Compare to her identity named Hyly, it covers her natural beauty by using herbal make up that makes her face more natural and less chemical that will not make her face older instead it will have vitamins that makes her skin more beautiful. But it makes her face a natural beauty like every noble ladies out there together with her dye brown hair, it makes her more noble like.

Merlin thought that her young miss is good at handling make up that she cannot totally saw the similarities of Kaylee and Hyly if one did not notice their height and how thin and small she is will they saw a similarities.

While she is in her deep thought, she almost bump into Kaylee if she is not alert enough.

"Merlin, you are good at handling dresses, you know what to do." Kaylee look at her while pointing her walk in closet beside her bed.

"Yes" Merlin nodded and hurriedly look at her closet. She expected that there will be plenty of expensive dresses but when she saw the real deal, she can't help but gasp because on how organize and beautiful the clothes are. The shoes, crowns, accessories, dresses, night gowns, gowns, and many many more!

"It looks like my days will be fun." She said as she happily hop inside and hurriedly look for Kaylee a dress to wear.

"Hmm... She hates heavy dresses then why is there so much heavy dress here? Oh, maybe it's a gift from a member of a family." She mumbled not knowing that Kaylee is staring at her stupefied.

That's because in my past life, I love dresses that are over in accessories and a very trendy for royalties... Also to win that bastard's heart.... What Kaylee thought in an embarrass manner.

"Merlin, are you done?" Kaylee asked as if she had just entered the room.

"Yes! It is a perfect one!" Merlin happily hops to her while showing the dress she picked.

A simple white doll like dress with a small pearl every edge of the dress. A tiny diamonds are all over the cloth that makes the dress shimmering and attractive at the same time but the blue rose embroidery is the very most attractive in the dress that makes Kaylee stares blankly.

Kaylee was satisfied. "I did not know I have that dress... Well, that is surprisingly good."
