Here in England, at King William's country estate, I am to marry Prince Edward. Apparently, he (Prince Edward) is very different from his parents, who are extremely greedy and wasteful with their money. Prince Edward is the opposite, he wants to give all his money to the poor and needy. Not that that is a bad thing, just he would give so much that he would become poor and needy. Yes, I will have my hands full when I become queen.
Princess Elise of Norway
"Lady Aquilla, why are you in my room?" a servant girl asked.
"Lady Aquilla? Who in the world is that?" I looked at her, stunned.
"You are Lady Aquilla, are you not?" the maid questioned.
"No, girl, I am not Lady Aquilla. I am Princess Elise of Norway, come to wed Prince Edward of England. I am Lily's roommate for the time being," I replied in a haughty voice.
"I am Lily, and very pleased to meet you, Your Highness," Lily curtsied.
"I see you know some proper etiquette," I said in a disgusted tone, not wanting her to know I liked her.
"Yes, I have been trained by Lady Fallon Lee in all things proper," Lily said in her haughtiest tone.
"Impressive," I said sarcastically.
"Thank you," Lily smirked.
"I didn't really mean that, hope you realized that," I growled.
"What?" Lily looked VERY puzzled.
"Help me get ready for bed, already," I ordered.
Very good continuation...I would also put in some bit about how she feels about an arranged marriage, (it is arranged, isn't it?) and perhaps she might miss Norway. Also, description of palaces, people, clothes etc. altho maybe less description is better because I always get carried away with describing...but not to command you to do any of that, of course, just some hints. And do write more! Excellent story!
