The rebellious girl

Long long ago in a large and powerful kingdom in France, Royaume de la flora lived a duke named Lennard who was well-known for his kindness around the kingdom. He had 3 sons who were a combination of good looks and intelligence. He also had 2 daughters who were as beautiful as the goddesses in heaven.

Louis, Loria, Liam, Lucas, and Lucie were their names with the eldest being Louis and the youngest being Lucie.

Louis was the eldest and was 19yrs old. He was widely known for his intelligence and good looks. He had many women drool over him from the age of 13. He was very successful from a young age and would take over his family name once after his father's death.

Loria was the second eldest and was 17yrs old. She was famous for her beautiful blonde hair and hazel eyes. She was also widely known for how intelligent and wise she was. She is the fiance of the 3rd prince Soleil and would marry him soon after the crown prince would be announced.

Liam is the third born who is 16yrs old and is well known as he was friends with the 2nd prince Almund. He was a playboy and a womanizer. He had many innocent women fall head over heels for him. His father, duke Lennard was worried about the behaviour of his son Liam.

Lucas the fourth child and Lucie the youngest were twins. They were 13yrs old. They had bright red hair which made them different from their other siblings. Lucas was cold and ruthless towards others so many disliked him. Other than that he was excellent at swords and aimed to be a knight.

Lucie on the other hand was not very popular as her other siblings. She usually cross-dressed as a man and went around as she did not want to seek much attention as the duke Lennard's youngest daughter.

Many people were even unaware of the fact that the duke even had a daughter named Lucie. The people who knew about her would talk ill about her as she would not act like a girl her age. She would be rebellious and anger other Duch women who would complain about her to the Duke.

The Duke no matter what loved his youngest daughter very much. He never disagreed with any of her wishes. He never stopped his daughter from doing anything mischievous or scold her as he still looked after her as if she was an 8yr old kid.

Many people tried to warn the Duke about her behaviour but he did not listen to them.

The 5 kids mother Duchess Elisabeth had died in an accident at the very early age of 25. Lucas and Lucie were just a few months old when they lost their mother. Louis being the eldest took the responsibility to take care of his younger siblings when his father was not home and off to work.

Loria would also give a hand to her brother to take care of her siblings. Liam on the other hand was carefree. He never helped his siblings and would go out to roam at the age of 9.

Louis would raise his younger brothers and sisters along with his studies. He had gotten quite close with the 1st prince over time. Louis would help the 1st prince Leroy in his studies and other important things. The prince promised to let him be his royal counsellor if he were to be chosen, the crown prince.

The Duke's children and other noble or royal children studied in st. Mary school was named after the wife of King Edward the 9th who was the 7th ruler of the kingdom.

Both male and female students were admitted to the school from the age of 13 till the age of 25. It was necessary to admit male heirs to the school. Even the king of the kingdom had to enrol his son's and daughter's in the school.

It was a tradition to enrol royal heirs from many centuries. The heirs of the king who did not study in that school were not allowed to be participating in the crown prince competition in which a capable male heir would be chosen to become the next king of the kingdom. It was a very important event for royals.

Even it was mandatory for Nobel's to admit their children there. Lucas and Lucie, we're also admitted to the school at the age of 13.

Lucie had already earned the name rebel queen and defender of the weak from the first day of her school. She used to protect the kids who got bullied. Slowly people started spreading the rumour that she was even stronger than all the princes in the kingdom.

People who were beaten up by her always hid their faces under their books so that she wouldn't notice them. The ones who were saved by her created a fan club on her name in which they tried their best to protect all the weak students who got bullied out there.

Everything was going fine for one year but one incident in her second year changed her whole life. Lucie was beating up 2 boys for almost assaulting an innocent weak girl.

" We're sorry please forgive us! " One boy said kneeling on his knee's.

" We will never do such a thing! " Pleaded the other.

" You people don't deserve forgiveness! " Lucie shouted.

" You deserve a punishment worse than death! " She continued.

Saying this she punched them in the face. At the same time, she was beating the boys, the first prince Leroy was taking a walk around. Suddenly he heard the sound of Lucie and walked towards the back of the school where she was beating the two boys up.

He was shocked by the sight of Lucie beating the two boys up. " What's going on here? " He said.

Hearing his voice Lucie turned back with a fierce look. Her red as blood hair flew in the breeze as she turned back. The two boys also saw him and crawled up to him.

" Please save us from her! " They screamed.

" She's crazy! " One said.

" What did you say? " She said scarily.

They had goosebumps when they heard her voice.

" You may go, I'll handle this. " said the prince.

The two boys crawled away from the place as he said this. They had badly injured their legs so they could not walk.

" Hey, you let them go," She said in an unconcerned manner.

" You must have some guts to beat a person in front of me. " He said smiling.

" Why? are you the ruler of this world. " She said smirking.

Lucie had never met any prince before so she had no idea that he was a prince. She was talking to him in a cool manner.

" Do you know who I am? " He asked.

" No " She replied cooly.

Leroy was shocked by her answer but he just smiled.

" Why were you beating those two innocent boys up? " He asked.

Lucie became very angry when he used the term innocent to describe those two boys.

" More like dogs," She said coldly.

" They tried to rape a girl! " She said storming in anger.

He understood what was happening now.

" So what? " Prince Leroy asked with an evil smile. He was trying to test her.

Lucie got so angry that she grabbed his collar. " What do you think of yourself!? " She said in a cold voice.

Prince Leroy smiled at her calmly. " You're quite strong for a girl. " He said.

"It's because of this thought of you boys! " She said angrily.

Suddenly Louis came there searching for Lucie. He was shocked to see his little sister holding the 1st prince by his collar. He quickly freed Leroy and bowed to him.

" I'm so sorry for my sister's behaviour! " He said worriedly.

" Oh so she's your sister, " Prince Leroy said with an evil smirk.

" 1st brother he, " Lucie said.

Louie angrily looked at her. " how could you grab the 1st prince by the collar! " He shouted.

" 1st Prince? " She was shocked. She had no idea that he was the 1st prince.

" I will forgive you as you are Louie's sister and because that you saved a girl. " Leroy said.

" Thank you, your highness! " Louie said bowing to him.

" What are you waiting for thank him! " He said angrily at his sister.

" Whatever " Lucie said being disgusted. After saying that she left the place.

Louie was very angry at her careless behaviour while Leroy felt it interesting.

" I'm so sorry prince Leroy I will educate her. " Louie said feeling embarrassed at Lucie.

" I will make sure this does not happen again " He continued.

" It's alright I forgive her after all she is your sister. " Leroy said.

" I want to meet your sister in the school garden after class today. " He continued.

Louie was shocked hearing this. He was worried if the prince had some bad intention of calling her.

" Yes your highness, He said unwillingly. After saying this he left.

Lucie was really mad. She was talking about that incident with her best friend Patricia.

" You held the first prince by the collar?! " Patricia asked in shock.

" Did he do something to you! " She continued.

She was really worried. She knew that the 1st prince was not the type of person anyone would want to pick a fight with. She knew that he was the type of person who seeks revenge. She knew him she was his little sister. Patricia was a princess but she never told that to Lucie. She kept her identity a secret from her. She wanted to be friends with Lucie as a normal person.

" Don't worry I'm perfectly fine?" Lucie said.

" Few, I'm glad to hear that, " Patricia said sighing.

Suddenly Louis came there worried. He walked towards the two friends and pulled Lucie towards him.

" I'm borrowing her for a while. " He said.

" Sure no problem. " Patricia said blushing. She had a crush on Louie.

Louie pulled Lucie to a corner there.

" What is it, brother? " She asked.

" You did a good job angering the 1st prince! " Louie said angrily.

" Why? does he want to punish me now? " She asked calmly.

" He has asked to meet you at the school garden! " He said worriedly.

" So? " She asked.

" I'll just go there then. " She continued.

" You don't know the insanity of things! " He said angrily.

" What if he does something wrong to you?! " He said grabbing her shoulders.

" Don't worry I'll be fine. " She said pushing his hands off.

Patricia heard the brother-sister conversation. She became really worried hearing this.

" Oh no, this is bad. " She thought.

After comforting her brother Lucie came towards Patricia and said, " Um, Patricia I have some things to do so I'll have to go. "

"It is fine," Patricia said giving a fake smile. She knew that something bad was meant to happen today.

Lucie then left for the garden. Patricia followed her without anyone noticing.

Lucie entered the garden and saw prince Leroy there with the 3rd prince Soleil. " what is it? " She asked walking towards them.

Soleil was shocked by seeing Lucie talking to Leroy so frankly. Patricia also thought that her friend would die today.

" Does she know who we are? " He whispered in Leroy's ears.

Leroy nodded. " Welcome, I'm the 1st prince Leroy," He said bowing to her

" Hello," She said frankly

Soleil's jaw dropped down seeing her talking to Leroy like that. Patricia almost fainted seeing this.

" You might be wondering why I called you here," Leroy said smiling.

" Could you do anything other than smiling? " Lucie said in a friendly manner.

" Oh, I got used to smiling " Leroy replied in a friendly manner.

Soleil and Patricia were shocked seeing them talk in a frank manner.

" Who is this guy near you? " Lucie asked.

" I'm Soleil your sister's fiance lady Lucie. " Soleil said bowing.

" Oh, nice to meet you, brother-in-law. " She said waving at him.

Soleil was speechless at her stupid behaviour. He even thought that she had a death wish.

" So, lady Lucie I called you here to reward you. " Leroy said.

" Reward me, for what? " Lucie asked.

" For saving that girl who almost got assaulted. " He said handing over a pouch of gold coins to her.

" Sorry I can't accept this. " She said.

" I save people as I see it as my duty, not for rewards," She said returning the pouch to him.

After saying this she walked. All the three, Leroy, Soleil and Patricia were shocked seeing this. They had never seen a girl refuse something from a royal. Soleil and Patricia were worried for Lucie as they thought that Leroy would do something to her.

Patricia quickly came in front of her 2 brothers. " Please forgive her brother Leroy! " She said bowing.

" She is my only best friend! " She continued.

" Yes brother please forgive her, she is my future little sister in law. " Soleil said bowing.

" Don't worry I won't punish her. " He said.

" Thank you, brother! " Patricia said hugging him.

" Yes, thank you brother " Soleil said.

Leroy sighed and walked away from the garden. He had that fearless 14yr old on his mind. He had started to feel affectionate for her. He blushed while thinking of her refusing him.

" Lucie you'll have to pay for what you did to me. " He said smiling and touching his chest.
