Chapter 5

Today will finally be the day I meet my grandfather and I'm so proud. I can't wait to go to the place where my kind lives, a place where everyone has wings at his back and magical powers, a place where no one feels like a castaway because of their abilities and a place where everyone is the same.

"Something tells me that someone is really excited to go home." Richard said before sitting down next to me.

"Why won't I?" I asked before glaring at him, "but how will we get there?"

Richard smiled, "We will have to get The Tower Of Two Worlds."

"What is The Tower Of Two Worlds?"

"It is a magical tower, and it is the only way to get to Firce."

George and Isabelle came out of their rooms with some bags, both of them were laughing as they came out of the room and they looked thrilled.

Richard walked over to George. "Guys, if you are ready to go, then I think we should leave."

We all left the house and headed to the car. There Richard and I sat in the front seat while George and Isabelle took the back seat.

I fastened my seat belt, "Guys, how long will the trip take?"

Richard fastened his seat beat. "Approximately 30 minutes."

The engine roared to life immediately Richard started it and after that, off we went to the Firce.

"Richard you know that you will be famous after this. Isabelle commented.

Richard smirked. "Isabella I am well aware of that but to honest I don't need the fame."

"How can you need fame when you are already famous." George stated, "Girls literally follow like as if you are a god.

"Jealous?"

"Why should I be when I already have a beautiful, beloved." George placed his arms around Isabelle's waist and dragged her closer before kissing her neck.

Richard rolled his eyes, "I don't think you guys should make out here, at least have mercy on Annabelle."

Everyone laughed at Richard's comment.

I licked my lips. "Guys, what will happen when we get to Firce?"

"Well, you will meet your grandfather." Isabelle continued. "Then a coronation party will be hosted, but we will host it when you like it."

"I think you should let it happen today, Anna." George said

"Shut up, George." Richard snapped.

"I will love the coronation party to be held immediately I get there."

"It has to be your choice, Annabelle." Richard advised, "George loves parties so he will tell you to set the party today but it has to be your choice Anna."

"It is my choice Richard besides, I really love parties."

"Suite yourself."

We talked nonstop, but Richard, who had to announce that we had reached the gate, interrupted our conversion. Isabella and I were mad over the fact that he interrupted us while we were talking, but my angry disappeared immediately I laid eyes on The Tower Of Two Worlds, the tower was huge and well hidden.

"What do you we do now?" I asked.

"We get out of the car and we flap." Richard responded.

"But if we leave the car, how will you get it?"

"Don't worry about that, Anna."

We all got out of the car and took off to the skies, Richard lead and landed on a particular dark floor of the tower, we all landed next to him because he was the one leading us.

"Richard this place looks..

"Creepy I know, those goblins love darkness."

"Goblins?!"

"They used to live in The Mystic Realms, but they always caused trouble, so all the kingdoms banished them but your ancestors were compassionate, so they made them this tower as a place to stay under the condition that they guard it."

"So they take care of this place."

"Exactly"

Richard snapped his fingers, and the whole place lighted up.

"Who did that?" a cracked voice asked

My attention turned to face the person who was coming out, but I realized something and that was Richard was not scared at all. It felt like as if he did not care who it was.

"It is me, Cidarian." Richard said.

"That voice it can only belong to RICHARD."

A goblin came out the shadow, and he was glaring at Richard.

"What are you doing here?" the goblin asked

"Is it not obvious, Cidarian." Richard laughed.

"Why were you sent to get the princess?" Cidarian muttered.

"Let me guess, you are angry that they sent me because I do not always follow your rules."

"You know just leave immediately." Cidarian yelled before chanting some spells that caused a magical door to open up.

"Please leave now, Richard." Cidarian pleaded, "I promise to send your car immediately."

"Nice job boy." Richard commented

"I am a 145-year-old goblin, I am not a boy." Cidarian yelled out

"Yeah, whatever." Richard muttered before he signed us to go through to the door.

*******

I had my eyes closed while we crossed to the door because Richard said so. Some things I hate the way he behaves like my boss, but either way he is a nice guy and he is also cute.

"I think you should open your eyes now," Richard whispered.

The palace looked so beautiful, I could not believe that I will live in such a real beautiful place for the rest of my life.

"I think we have left someone dumb struck." Richard said.

"This place is amazing." I exclaimed out, "I can't believe that I will live here for the rest of my life.

George smiled. "If you love the exterior design, then I am sure that you will flip when you see the interior designs."

The gates were open for us to enter the palace by the soldiers who bowed to me to show that they recognize me as their princess.

"Welcome home, Princess." Richard muttered.

A palace of glass and crystal stood in front of me, the sun was shinning brightly on the palace which made it glitter brightly.

"Beautiful right" Richard spoke behind me.

I nodded my head in approval; I have always been a fan of Disney, but this palace is nothing like to those.

A lot of workers were outside during their respective chores but each of them stopped immediately they sited Richard, their eyes were on him and I am sure they want to know whether he brought the Princess along and immediately they sited me they all gasped and rushed me, each of them were yelling 'Your Majesty.' or 'Her Royalty.'

Richard laughed when he saw my facial expression, I have never been the girl that likes popularity or attention but it seems like I need to love it.

We left them and went inside the palace, and what I saw left me in awe; it felt like as I was in a dream. The paintings were beautiful, and the furniture was amazing.

"Richard!"

We turned around to see a middle-aged woman who had her hair tied in a bun and her wings were black and pink.

"Victoria!"

Richard ran towards her and gave a tight hug, from his facial expression it obvious that Victoria meant something to him.

"How are you my boy?" Victoria asked

"Victoria, I am not a boy anymore." Richard cried out, "but anyway I am doing alright."

Victoria's eyes left Richard and landed on me. "You always fulfill your promises, no matter how difficult it sounds."

She came to me and curtsied before calling me Princess Annabelle.

"It is an honor to meet you again your highness."

"Thanks but can I ask you to do something for me?"

"Whatever you say, Princess."

"Please do not call me Princess Annabelle or Your Majesty because you are way older than me and you should also not curtsy to me."

"As you have commanded Annabelle." Victoria said.

Richard came behind Victoria and hugged her. "Annabelle, this is Victoria, she is my second mother and she will be your personal maid."

"Second Mother?"

"Well, she has always taken care of me, especially after my parents passed away."

"Richard had always valued her as his mother because of the way she has always handled him since when he was an eight-year-old child" Isabelle chipped in.

"Richard is my son, he might not be my son by blood, but I see him as my son." Victoria bragged

"I really love the way the two care yourself to be, it's amazing." I commented.

"Richard, I think you should take Annabelle to see the king." Victoria suggested.

"I was just about to do that."

It is time to see my grandfather, the person who I have always long to see, but I kind of felt scared because I had no idea how he will react when he sees me.

Annabelle, you must wait and see.
