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.

A Late Night Visit

A while after dinner I retired to my room to get ready for sleep. Tricia has prepared my night gown so I have changed in them.

"Do you have any other orders, princess?" Tricia asked.

"I'm good Tricia." I smiled. "You go and get some rest as well."

"Thank you your highness. Then I will retire now." Tricia bowed and left the room. She slowly closed the doors.

I sat down on one side of my bed and took a book from my bed side table. I am not yet sleepy so I continue to read the novel that I was reading before.

After some time I heard a light noise in my balcony. My heart raced a little.

'What if it is an intruder?' I thought to my self.

Luckily I have a knife hidden under my pillow. After my kidnapping, I have always armed my self with small weapons that can be concealed.

"Don't worry..." A familiar voice of a man said. "It's me."

"Leon!?" My tense muscles relaxed after hearing his voice. A smile crept from my face. "You've come."
