Two

I wake up as usual but today is the ball. Why dad have to do that, what if I just try to hide and come back when the prom is finished.

" Stop thinking about hiding Lilith ." Said Blanche who bring me my dress for tonight, but I don't want to see it for the moment. I hope that it's simple, but spend time with the prince of Eden is going to be difficult for me. I sigh.

" I'm going to take a shower and then eat , you can go to you own room now ." I command Blanche.

"Okay , but if you need help with something just call me" she said before living my room, and then I went to took a shower.

I let the water sink before put myself in it, I think about what will happen today.

Once I've finished I get out of the shower and just get dressed simple, because after all the ball is only tonight.

Someone comes into my room without my permission, without any surprise it's Lise, she has this annoying habit of coming into my room without warning.

" Lilith you better not embarrass us. I don't understand what Dad sees in you but know that if you make even one wrong move I will take your place. " If I could, I would give her my place, but what an arrogant woman.

" I'm your big sister and you owe me some respect Lise" I sigh, she can be so annoying when she gets into it.

"And anyway, the prince will be far too impressed by my beauty, he won't even see you." Ugh she's so annoying.

"If you say so, will you get out of my room now before I do it myself?" I say threateningly.

"I'll see you at the ball, big sister," She laughed before finally walking out of my room.

She's far too arrogant, everyone loves her without really knowing what she's like. She loves money and being the center of people's admiration, people say she looks more like a queen than me. I find that stupid because they don't know her like I know her.

"Lilie are you here ? " I shout, since I woke up I didn't see her and that weird.

I get out of my room and start to search her in the castle, but it looks like she is not in the castle.

" Your searching something princess?" Asked a maid.

"Yes , I don't know where is Lilie and I wonder if something happened to her ."

"I saw her outside a few minutes ago , maybe she is still there , you can go and see if she's there. "

I get out of the castle and see were Lilie is, I start to run after her, but it looks like she didn't even see me.

"Wait for me Lilie. " I shout starting running "Where are you going like that ?"

It's not like Lilie to don't obey what I say, I follow her until we reach a part of the forest that I've never been before it's dark and there are a lot of dead leaf.

Lilie stop for a moment and then someone appears from nowhere and pet her. I come near Lilie to take her back.

" Is this wolf yours ? " The stranger asked me, by her silhouette and her voice we can tell that it's a woman, I can't see her face, but she is very tall, maybe more than dad.

"Yes it's mine , come here Lil..." I don't have the time to finish my sentence when the woman attack me with a knife, I dodge her attack, but I still got cut on my cheek, and it's starts bleeding.

"The heck, why did you attack me? " I said angrily, she just tried to stab me, I should be more careful with her. I start to back away from her and I think she saw how afraid I was.

"Interesting, very interesting, I didn't think you would be able to dodge my attack. " She looks at me and then at Lilie.

"Your here to kill me,aren't you?" My heart start to beat faster, I'm afraid, and I didn't even think of bringing a weapon with me.

"No I won't kill you , I do have a mission but it is the opposite of what your thinking. " I can see that she is smiling under her mask through her eyes. She's still watching me, maybe in too much detail, it's embarrassing.

I notice while looking at her that she has black eyes with small horns that stick out of her mask on her forehead. Demon are supposed to be far from Elspeth so that weird.

"If you don't want to kill me.What are you doing here ? " I think for a couple of minutes and then remember that I had a blade hiding in my boots and I take it without her find out.

"I can't tell you , but you will know soon . " I take the opportunity when she is distracted to stab her and look like it work. I take out of her belly my blade, and I'm proud of myself.

"Good try princess , but that don't affect me." She is laughing, she is healing herself back ,and then she came and lick my cheek where she cut me before, and I take a few steps back. She smells like burnt vanilla.

"Your blood taste good you know." She just licks my face but now the pain that I had feeling is gone, like I was healed.

"Your weird you know." I said, this situation is really too weird for me.

"Yes I know , but now your healed and that great."

"But your the one that got me hurt. "I respond.

"Yeah, I have to go but I will see you next time , Lilith." she said before leaving somewhere else. She knew my name, but I'm a princess that normal.

"Princess , your here ?" It's a guard, he must have been told to come take me, and that why the weird woman left.

"Yes , let's go back to the castle now." I pet Lilie and then she starts following me.

"What were you doing here alone princess?" I don't think I should talk about my encounter with this strange girl earlier.

"I just folow Lilie, and I wanted her to go back with me."

"Oh , it's okay but don't get here alone next time it could be dangerous for you ." We head back to the castle, and what I think is only about this girl and why did Lilie came to see her when I was here.

Sorry for the spelling mistakes.
