20 Chapter 20

"Hello, Israel." Came an angelic voice opening my eye's but I saw no one; Sabine is that you? I asked picking myself off the ground.

"Yes dear, I'm glad to see that you've finally found your way home".

Home? The word feels unfamiliar on my tongue I mean I haven't been at home since my parents d-died, I mean the people who raised me.

"I know all of this is very confusing for you dear," She said in a smooth motherly voice.

How could you possibly know that?! The man I'm in love with is in a coma, I came here to master the healing ability of my gift but look how that turned out, I'm stuck here! I snapped.

If it wasn't for him I wouldn't even be here, I muttered flopping down on the swing that was in the garden.

"He'll be okay dear".

Have you not heard a single word I just said? I said I'm stuck here!

"I heard you dear, I'll teach you how to use and controlled your powers so you can leave when you like but you have to come back home we need you, your destiny is here and you can't escape what is meant to be".

Okay, sabine you have my word, I promised to return here once blake is well.

"Goodie I can't wait, you have so much to learn" she squealed like a teenager who's just received a car for her sweet 16th birthday.

So when do we start? I asked while chuckling at her behavior.

"After the king announces you returned".

Okay, I think.

"So it's set, so I'm going to be sending you back now".

Wait!

"What is it dear?"

When will I be able to see you? I mean if we're going to train together... I trailed off.

"Soon dear". I heard her angelic voice fading.

I woke up to the sounds of music; what time is it? I asked while rampaging through my luggage for my phone, aha there you are! I shouted in excite powering it on I watched as it comes to life then suddenly there was a knock on the door and came zander with a young girl by his side.

"I see you haven't unpacked yet?"

I've been busy.

"Okay well Israel meets Claire, she'll help you get dressed for the festival".

Thanks for your consideration zander but I can dress, no offense Claire.

"It was the king who gave the instructions take it up with him but I would advise you not to, it's been ages since he saw his daughter he's just concerned".

Fine.

"Good now I'll leave you, girls, to your pampering".

"I'm going to get the shower running for your bath ma'am," she said walking over to the bathroom.

Okay and please call me Israel or Izzy.

"Okay Israel," she said with a small smile.

So Claire how old are you?

"19"

Okay so how long have you been at the palace?

"Ever since I was a little girl my mother was a servant here and she always brings me to work with her," she said while checking the temperature of the water.

"Your shower is ready now Isreal I'll just go and find you a dress," she said walking through the door while closing it.

Removing my clothes I stepped into the shower, as I applied shampoo into my greasy hair I massaged through the scalp, after rinsing I begun washing my body.

Reaching for a towel I wrapped it around my body and leave my midnight hair to cascade down my back while water droplets fall from the end, entering back into the room Claire was going in and out of the walk-in closet with dresses of all colors in her hand.

Walking over towards the bed where the dresses were laid out, there was red dress, blue dress, yellow dress, gold, violet dress, pink dress, black dress, gray dress, peach dress, navy blue, pink & white dress, etc. but one, in particular, caught my eye's it was a white sliver velvet dress covered in sparkle diamonds stones, single brace with diamond studs, open septum, sliver flowers designed on the breast area, thigh-high split, slat patterns, and it flows in a fishtail style.

It was beautiful like nothing I've never seen before. This is the one! I exclaimed to claire.

"It's beautiful, you would look like a princess in this dress Israel".

I would.

"Let's work on your makeup"

After one hour of Claire pampering my face and fixing my hair It was finally time to get dress, looking at myself in the vanity mirror my make up was natural, with wigs, and Smokey eye making me look fierce, my hair was done in a fishtail braid with the remaining layers curled to perfection.

After getting dressed I paired the look with some silver pumps, I look pretty good as a model off the runway.

"It's time for your announcement".

Nodding at her we make our way to the ballroom where I was met with zander;

"You look beautiful Isreal".

Thanks, it's all because of Claire.

"I have to go get ready for the celebration best of luck Israel," Claire said with a smile on her face as she attempted to walk away.

So zander I'm I expected to give a speech or something?

"No not at all"

Walking into the ballroom was like walking into Disney world, there was a huge red carpet spread out on the floor, a sparkling chandelier was dangling from the ceiling, the gold walls stand out, it was all beautiful.

"Come on let's take your seat on the throne".

As I attempted to walked towards the throne the crowd parted ways for me while they whispered in a hushed tone, with my head held high and zander by my side I walked towards the throne where I was meet by the king and a girl I have yet to meet.

Standing on the right side of the king he began with his speech.

"Welcome faeries and elves you all know the stories of my lost daughter, of my late wife, your deceased queen has returned home to fulfill her destiny".

I watched as the crowd of people erupted in cheers; "now it's time we crown the princess as the rightful heir to the throne, bring the crown" The king demand.

As he takes ahold of the crown from Zander he gently places it on the top of my head, and in the corner of my eyes, I saw the girl who was standing beside the king earlier with an angry expression.

As I was crown princess of the kingdom the people begun to celebrate while some approached me to show their respect.

As I was making my way over to Claire someone tapped me on my shoulder, turning to face them I came to face with a handsome looking guy.

"Hi I'm prince Nickalus from the elf kingdom, I came to witness the returned of the lost princess".

Blushing at his word's I said it's nice to meet you prince Nik, and that's how we spend our evening being acquainted with each other.
