"Yep. Leave it to me." Jack said bumping his fist on his chest confidently. "I am the best thief there ever in this continent." He said proudly. "Is that something to be proud of?" I giggled. "But please be careful. The path leading to the pendant is filled with magic traps." I looked at him worriedly. Jack might be the best thief there is but what he was stealing is not something ordinary. It was well guarded and filled with magic traps along the way. "Do not worry about me princess. I will…-

After the annunciation ceremony, I have gone back to my private quarters to prepare for the masquerade ball. But before everything else I have to call on William and Jack to run through on our escape plan for the final time. "Martha, can you please call sir knight and my male servant." I ordered. "I want to give them some instructions before the masquerade ball starts." "Yes your highness." Martha politely bowed and exited my room. After a while Martha came back with William and Jack. "Your…

After the whole ordeal was over, William took me back to my private quarters. He laid me down in bed gently but his face was full of rage like he was about to kill somebody. "Martha, please prepare me a hot bath please." I ordered Martha. With what had just happened, I felt quite dirty all over my body. "Y-Yes, right away your highness." Martha hurriedly went out to prepare my bath. "Will..." I called out to him but didn’t answer. It was like he was not in his body. "William!" I called with a…

"What is happening?" A high voice rang inside the room. All in the room were frozen in place. This voice came to no other than the queen of Jennovia, Queen Patricia. She entered the wrecked room of the crown prince with the high priest Hector following her from behind. All of the ones present inside the room bowed downed in her presence. William also bowed down as acting. "Greetings to the moon of the Jennovian Kingdom." The people inside the room greeted in unison. "All of you stand up and…

"The first time I laid my eyes on you, I knew for certain that you are the one for me." Gladiolus took my hand and pressed it on his cheeks. "I fell for you at first sight. I then knew why Sati was not meant for me, it was because you are the one for me." I believe that his feelings for me are genuine but what disgust me were his delusions. Why would he think that we are meant for each other? Has his mother injected such thoughts into him? "You are mine, and mine alone." Gladiolus said with eyes…

\"Greetings to the future son of the Jennovian Kingdom.\" I curtsied. \"Rise, my future moon.\" Gladiolus walked towards me. He took my hand and kissed it affectionately. \"Come, let us eat.\" Gladiolus escorted me gently to my seat and helped me settle down. After that he took his own seat and waved to the maids to prepare the dishes. Breakfast was laid on the table carefully by the maids and they stood by the side after. I quietly started to eat my breakfast in peace not looking at Gladiolus as…

After bathing, Martha helped me get dressed. Meeting with the crown prince is important to the maids that they have prepared me a beautiful dress with matching accessories. \"I am ready, let’s go.\" I said and Martha nodded in understanding. Inside my pocket was the magic crystal that Anna the fortune teller gave me before. With this crystal I knew that Jack was one of the stars from the prophecy, and like the prophecy said Jack had become a very big help to me. I once again remembered the…

The day of Satiana’s coming of age ceremony had finally arrived. These past few days have passed without anything major happening. Elizabeth and I had a long talk after the event that evening in the garden outside. I cannot say that we have been close but at least her antagonistic feeling towards me has been dissipated. Gladiolus on the other has been pampering me since he came back. He didn’t kiss me again like the first time we met and I was thankful for that but his closeness towards me is…

\"That’s good to hear.\" Gladiolus smiled. \"Dinner is served in the dining room. \"Let us now head there. I am sure all of you are famished.\" Gladiolus took my hand and escorted me along the way. It was a gesture of a husband escorting his wife. Even though we were not yet married, he did such things anyway. It was like slapping Elizabeth on her face because she is the one who already married to him. The dinner was eaten in peace, much to my relief. I heard from Gladiolus that the knights from…

After the whole ordeal in the Prima Bella Clothing Store was over, the two knights was quickly detained and sent back to the palace. We, on the other hand continued our shopping here in town. \"Big sis, are you really all right?\" Satiana asked with a worried tone. \"Do not worry Sati, I am fine. Nothing bad happened and those offenders have been quickly detained.\" I assured her with a smile. \"I am sure your brother will give them the right punishment for offending a princess like me.\"…
