The Forgotten Princess

Alicia Rosalyn Von Heist is the youngest daughter of King Edward of Alvannia. She is an illegitimate child born from a maid in the castle her father has fancied. After her mother died when she was young her father took her home and ‘adopted’ her. Because of her low birth and illegitimacy she was neglected by her father the king and bullied by her stepmother the queen and her step-siblings. When she was 16 years old a war broke out with the neighboring country of Grandcrest. The war lasted for two long years and the two countries have made a truce at the end. The Grandcest empire demanded a princess to be married to the young king. It is said that the king of Grandcrest specifically asked for the hand of Alicia. Alicia was 18 years old when she was sent to Grandcrest as the fiancee of the young king who was said to be a cold blooded evil tyrant, King Regaleon of the Grandcrest empire.

Fire Fly Lake

Regaleon and I was walking side by side. We are a little far away from the inner palace but we are still inside the palace grounds.

The sun has set just a while ago. The moon is not yet fully out and the sky is full of twinkling stars.

"Here, take my hand." Regaleon offered me his hand. "You might trip on the way."

It was getting a bit dark because it was just past twilight. I take his hand that I can only see because it was extended right in front of me.

This wasn't the first time I have held his hand, but still it makes me shy. I hear him chuckle lightly.

"What are you laughing at?" I said shyly. I am just happy that it was dark because Regaleon would have seen my face that is so red in shyness.

"I have held your had quite a number of times before." Regaleon said teasingly. "And yet you are still shy towards me."
