In The Name of Love : The Beginning
“What’s your name?”
“It’s Cathleen, Milady…”
“They told me that you were a princess before…”
“Yes, I was. That’s before your father invaded our country and make us his prisoners…”
Marian observed her thoroughly. Well, she indeed such a delicate beauty. Her yellow grain hair sleek falls to her back. Her eyes spark with life. Even though she knew that she couldn’t live gloriously as she was before. Her rosy cheeks are the match of her oval-shaped face.
Just like her.
Everything about this girl is just a reflection of herself. A perfect mirror of hers. That’s why…
Marian needs to work on her plan now. Or never.
An idea flashed into her mind.
“How if I give you a chance, Cathleen?”
“Another chance for being a princess once again?”
Cathleen sneered and narrowed her eyes suspiciously.
“Is this some kind of joke?”
“I believe it’s not..”
“Or a trap, perhaps?”
Marian chuckled at her false accusation.
“Why would I do such a thing, Cathleen?”
“It’s reasonable. You’re the daughter of our enemy..”
“The only thing that I shall do is distrust you..”
“An enemy of my enemy is my friend. Did you familiar with that phrase?”
A bad hunch crept into Cathleen’s mind. She sneered out. Tried to confirm her presumptuous thoughts before.
“Don’t say that you are going to be…”
“Yes, you’re right, Cathleen…”
“You indeed very smart…” Marian cut her off all of sudden.
“You’ll be replacing me. You’ll be me…”
“And, I’ll be out there…”
“What would you do out there?”
“Young lady, it’s none of your business…”
“So? Do we have an agreement, Princess Cathleen?”
“But, how if they found out someday?”
“Oh, they won’t …”
