Chapter 1: EXCERPT
[MUSIC RECOMMENDATION: IF HEAVEN HAD COMPASSION ~ ALIN]
"Mother! I understand you perfectly; you carry the crown and bear the family. Such a crowd for a poor widow," Kitanna formed tears in her eyes and moved closer to hold the Queen. Just immediately, the mute, boulder-looking guard stepped forward and held Kitanna's hand, preventing her from getting closer to the Queen. The Queen smiled inwardly.
Kitanna hissed and glared at the guard, who was way taller than everyone in the room. That made Kitanna look like a bird in his presence, but the fiery princess kept her cool and forced her wrist out. The expressionless guard bowed and went back to stand behind the queen.
Kitanna eyed him for a few seconds and looked at the queen, who looked so pleased.
"My Queen, I did not know a daughter is not allowed to touch her own mother. Your dog perceives me as a threat. I wonder what you gave him to sniff... Oh! What royalty has done to family ties. I never knew that in my time, the crown would be thicker than blood. This is very sad. Right, Khelan?" Kitanna said, dragging the poor prince into the squabble.
"Mother, Kat, please let us go home and... Mother, you should punish your guard for touching the princess. The act is unruly," Khelan said, sighing in frustration.
"Okay then, let us all go home. Kitanna, you came here without an escort. I have just one horse to spare, so sort yourself out. Khelan, go to the gamas outside and wait for me..." The queen hesitated, then opened her lips to speak "And as for my guard, he will be punished. I will see to it," she concluded causing the princess to smile with a wicked grin on her face.
