*Isabella’s POV*The journey back to the capital and to the palace will take at least a week at most. The mansion we have stayed for these last two years was located at the edge of the country, at the boundary between Wales and Avalon.We have journeyed for four days and four nights. And by the looks of it, we will arrive in the capital by tomorrow night.Because our party was small, containing only three people, one coachman and my cat, we used a small carriage in our journey.It was almost evening when we arrived at a small town. The carriage came into a halt."We will spend the night here." Erik said while peeking at the carriage window from the outside. "It is best to stay indoors at night because there are thieves and bandits lurking around in the woods.""Okay." I nodded."I will find a suitable inn for us to stay in." Erik said. "Stay inside the carriage until I get back." Then Erik left.Maggie closed the window curtains of the carriage once Erik had left. We made our journey

It was early in the morning as we were preparing to depart."Miss, I bought these buns from a bakery near by. They are newly baked and still hot." Maggie said presenting to me a bag full of buns."Hmm, they smell delicious." I said why smelling the steam."I know. You can snack on them in the carriage later." Maggie said."Thank you Maggie." I smiled."You are most welcome miss." Maggie replied."Are you ready?" Erik asked."Yes." I answered.Spending the night in the inn was refreshing. I had a hot bath and was able to sleep on a bed. In the journey these past few nights, we were camping out in safe places. So having a nice bed to sleep in last night was heaven."If we keep up our pace, we will be in the capital before nightfall." Erik said."That’s good." I said.Not long, our carriage came with the coachman driving. Erik opened the carriage door and ushered me inside while Maggie followed behind me."Just call me when you need anything." Erik said before closing the door.Erik has

I wore my cape and hood and went out of the carriage. Erik heard me and looked around with a serious face."Go back inside." Erik said with authority. If I were still the weak old Isabella, I would have listened obediently. But I know something that Erik does not know."Please believe in me." I calmly said to Erik . He looked at me seriously then sighed."I understand." Erik said but he didn’t let his guard down.I know that I will always be safe with Erik around. He might not know but I already knew about the men in the shadows working for him, thanks to Snow. The men working for him are strong and I am sure they are not far from us.I haven’t told Erik of my knowledge about his men. I am sure he has his reasons for not telling me. I just wish that he will explain it to me soon."Oh, is this the beautiful sister?" The young man with red hair said. "Let us see your beautiful face.""I am not here to fulfill your wish young man." I said. "I am here to negotiate.""What will you negotia

"Don’t worry Erik. I know what I am doing, please trust me." I said. I held his hand and squeezed it gently. He looked tense at first but became calm after. He nodded slightly."I have heard about your ’Nine Lives Bandits’ from my grandfather." I said. "You are not just a small group of bandits like you just said. I am sure you are included in a big organization.""Well, your information is a little correct." Bob said. "But I am correct that my group of bandits only lurks in this certain area. We are just a small group included in a big organization.""If my hunch is correct, you maybe a relative of the head of this ’organization’." I said with a smile."How did you..." Robin said with a fierce voice but Bob gestured him to stop."It’s just a hunch as I have said." I said calmly. "The word ’Nine Lives’ must have came from something."You have great speculation skill Isabella. You are correct, the head of the organization is my father." Bob praised me. "I might agree with this ’friends

Before night fall the villagers that were disguised as bandits invited as to rest in their village for the night."We don’t have much your highness but please feel free to eat as much as you want." An elderly woman said."Thank you very much." I replied. "I am not a picky eater so do not worry. Please join me." I smiled. The food on the table can feed the entire village.I look at the villagers around me. They are thin and frail looking. Food has been scarce in this famine period and my father the king hasn’t done anything for his people."Oh no your highness, we do not dare." The elderly woman said. But then a little girl came near me."Can I get a little?" The little girl asked."Of course you can, all of these are your food. Please feel free to eat with me." I said. And then the little girl smiled widely that melted my heart. She sat down beside me and started to eat.After a while the other children and villagers started to eat with me as well."The gold coins that I gave can feed

We departed from the village the next day. Bob and his group of men escorted us until the end of the forest. Once we were back on the road, all was safe again"Princess, are you feeling well?" Maggie asked worriedly."What do you mean?" I asked Maggie a little confused."Well your face is a little red princess." Maggie said. "Maybe you have a slight fever.""No, I am perfectly fine. Haha." I smiled awkwardly. "It’s just a little stuffy in here, that’s all.""Is that so?" Maggie asked. She got a fan from my bag and started to fan me. "Don’t worry princess, it’s just a few hours away from the capital. You just have to endure for a while.""O-okay." I said.’Is it really hot? Or are you just feeling ’hot’ because of certain someone outside.’ Snow who was curled up on my lap said.’I won’t hear the end of it, will I?’ I asked Snow.’Nnnooooo... I will surely enjoy teasing you these coming days.’ Snow said while yawning.I sighed internally. Snow is a kind and loyal familiar but she likes

The carriage came into a stop in front of my courtyard and Erik helped me get down."Sister!" I heard a young man’s voice. When I turned around and looked, it was the crown prince. "Sister, I have missed you so much." Williams gave me a big hug."I-I missed you too." I said with a muffled voice. "Williams you’ve grown so big."Of course sister." Williams answered giggling.As I thought, Williams is now a few inches taller than I am. His body is well toned and his voice is starting to become deeper. Grandpa is surely giving him the spartan training."How are you?" I asked "I’m fine sister." Williams said with a huge smile. "How about you?""I am also fine." I replied. "I missed you so much." Williams gave me a huge grin as a response.I would like to pat him on the head like I always do but looking at him now who is taller than me, it will only look awkward."Where is grandpa?" I asked while looking around searching."Oh, he’s waiting in the throne room." Williams said. "Actually I

"I have gathered you all here today because of a matter regarding the crown prince of Avalon, prince Ragnar." Father said.My step sisters all had a confused expression. I am also curious of what father is about to say."A letter has come from Avalon about a proposal of marriage from the crown prince for one of the princesses of wales." Father continued. "The letter states that he would come here to visit for a week in Helena’s grand ball, so I also invited him to attend.""King father, did he say who he would take as his bride?" Helena asked with excitement in her eyes."It is stated in the letter that all three princesses should be present in his visit. I guess he would be choosing one of you when he is here." Father said."Because my sister Helena is the eldest, I am willing to forfeit the selection father." Camila said with a smile. "I am also sure that mother has arranged my marriage.""I understand Camila." Father nodded. "Then the selection would be between Helena and Isabella

Williams and I were walking together back to my courtyard. It was a little dark so he escorted me back.We were getting near my courtyard when someone shouted my name."Isabella!" A familiar voice shouted.When I look around I saw Camila fuming in anger walking towards me. She lifted her hand and was about to slap me when I caught her hand mid way."You bitch!" Camila screamed. "How dare you come back!" She was struggling to get free."I have just come back after two years and you welcome me like this sister." I said with a cold tone. "What have I done to you now to receive your anger." I threw away her hand and she stumbled on the ground."How dare you!" Helena came just in time to see Camila stumble."She was the first one to attack me. I just defended my self." I said."She is right sister. Camila is the one that attacked us out of nowhere." Williams defended me."How dare you take her side?" Camila said. "She was the one that scarred my beautiful face.""Scarred your beautiful fac
