She was interrupted by the new man. “I’m going to the capital city this evening, I’ll need a servant or maid to accompany me, someone stubborn, proud and brave” The soldier started, his voice loud, definitely not a soldier… a commander probably… (Name) determined. King Ivan nodded turning away from his eggs. “Anyone in mind?” King Ivan asked looking up from the table. The commander glanced up and his eyes traveled to (Name). He smiled at her, and a frown passed the King's face. "Yes, in fact, I do" King Ivan's frown deepened. “Oh you do?” the King’s voice was tight, as if

The day before   “Where the hell are you?” (Name) snapped “I’ve called a billion freaking times!” she let out a growl of frustration and ran her hand through her hair, switching her phone off. It was raining, it was cold and she was alone. Now what? Should she just keep walking? She had no other choice. She grabbed her suitcase and hauled it after her, trying not to let the bitterness in her mind cloud her judgement.   She had called Ludwig at least 10 times yet every time she called, it switched to voice mail. Which meant only one thing, he had forgotten. And at the moment he was probably watching TV, or out wit

The King coughed and stared around for a while. This was strange, very strange actually. In fact- he hadn’t ever been ignored by everyone he passed; he was after all the king. He glanced cautiously to his right where (Name) was busy staring the other way, he doubted she had wanted them to be alone.  But this did come to an advantage for him. “Well, (Name)… this is … nice” He nodded trying to cut through the ice, the atmosphere became even more awkward. “Right… maybe we should be heading back?” (Name) nodded her eyes darting around. “I mean maybe this wasn’t a good idea…”

“Alright there love?” Arthur asked. “No, my shoes are eating my feet” (Name) wailed “I can’t walk” “Are you suggesting I take you up myself?” Arthur smiled sweetly. (Name) glared at him. “Don’t be stupid, I’d rather have my feet eaten” He rolled his eyes, taking her arm. “We’ll just get a room and then you can get ready. The ball starts at 6, that’s 1 hour” “What are you even planning to do in the ball” (Name) sighed, limping after him. He didn’t reply and glanced at her. “Remember (Name)” he said sternly “

“This is a bad idea” The King muttered treading carefully over the pavement “This is a bad idea (Name)” he repeated for the millionth time.   “Relax” Name said rolling her eyes “This is perfect, what’s the worst that could happen?” she paused and thought about that for a while “Scratch that comment” she said. “Anyway, look, relax, have some fu...you know? F-U-N”   “ And I was thought fun was when you were enjoying yourself” The King grumbled. He glanced at (Name)’s direction “I wanted to have some time alone with you” he mumbled, more t

“I know” Ludwig said and he seemed...sad...sure he’s sad (Name) thought, brushing the thought away. “But you’ll find you don’t have much choice” he said. (Name) sighed, standing up slowly and walking away. Why am I just doing what he says? I could jump out of the window or something...and get away...suuuure. (Name) thought. She walked up the stairs, and to the bathroom. She felt she deserved a nice, long bath. (Name) glanced around at her bedroom, she could hear Ludwig speaking furiously on the phone in German, he seemed to have forgotten that well...(Name) could understand what he was saying. At t

The next day (Name) woke up at 3 am in the morning; she glanced around and stared outside the windows. She was still trying to convince herself that she was a ‘country’; it was strange to think about. But the question that lingered most in her mind was how long she would stay alive for. Thinking about it she didn’t want to live for too long, that would mean making no friends because if you did you’d also have to watch them die... how on earth could she watch people die over and over again whilst she didn’t? Sighing to herself (Name) pulled herself out of the window dangling her legs outside. She could see the fi
