“When will the day come?”

The Break of Noon came blazing down on the girl who sat by the window, the hot sun shone on her bright face making her squint her Round shape Amber eyes, she held her hands under her chins as her farsighted eyes kept giving off a fiery light, she was waiting for someone and she knew the person was near, her wavy reddish-blonde hair cascaded down her back, suddenly someone rushed into the princess-like bedroom before bowing her head.

"Your highness, the King asks for you and the Royal firstborn of the family at the grand hall" Without saying anything Raine stood up and approached the door as the timid maid followed behind, she didn't have any servant except the girl behind her, as she never associated with anyone and been the most needed princess in the palace anything she wanted was giving to her without any complaint, the maid grew up with her and pretty much understand her, and she was the only one Raine could converse with. As they walked on the cold floors of the path that leads to the grand hall, Raine ignored many people who stopped to greet her as her hollow eyes only stared at the Big door that was showing its magnificent glory at the other end of the pathway, when she reached the main door they opened the door without even knocking as someone announced her presence.

"Princess Raine Alexander of Triberius Arrives" she never really liked been announced Raine walked toward the King and Queen, as she stared at their grinning faces, this was how they raised her to be, their show-off, their jewelry, showing off what they never got, it was today that she finally found out that she had been the jewelry of the Family that never loved that, she would find out but it would be soon.

"Greetings Father, I, Princess Raine Alexander greets you" she bowed then lifted her chin waiting for her to arise.

"Arise, princess, we have been waiting for you, take your seat" she arose and made way to her seat with a grim expression, no one knew what she was thinking and they didn't want to know, she crossed eyes with her glaring older sister, who was nudged by her mother who she sat with, being the first daughter she was given the seat of honor which was beside the Queen and she was given the seat that stood out before ministers, the first daughter Sophie composed herself and looked elsewhere, Raine no longer looked at her as she stared at the Young and handsome man who strode towards the King and showed his respect, Raine could see the burning gazes the maids who were sneaking to look gave him, she snickered silently.

"All the servants should be out" and as the king commands they all rushed out of the halls, head bow and in cue leaving only the royal family and minister in the Grand hall.

The Young man who was in his prime, below the age of her older sister, stated his intention and waited for his reply, Raine who hated boring subjects closed her eyes and leaned her elbow and the seat armrest, and to everyone she was asleep and to them, it was an insult but seeing as she was always needed to make wise opinions no one ever said anything unknown to them she was wide awake she didn't want to be part of the discussion, but she couldn't run from it.
