'My mother used to tell me when she birthed me, She named me (Lily), because it reminded her of her favorite story (Little Red Riding Hood) the character (Lily).

When I was 5 years old my mother kept telling me that story of (Little Red Riding Hood) and I got bored at it; yet their is some positive thing that I liked about it when she used to bring me (Anise cook) before she starts to tell me the that story and I really liked those cookies I really enjoyed eating them.

At age 8, I was waking in the garden playing with the butterfly, suddenly I heard two maid whispering something an important thing, so I wen't to them to know what were they whispering about, suddenly when I asked what's wrong and what were they whispering about, they looked shocked and sadness eating their faces, so I told them I'm the princess and I must know of what were they speaking about, but suddenly I was shocked of what I heard from them, they told me that my father died in the woods when he was hunting and my mother when she heard the news she got stroke and fell on the ground, there was no breath, nor air left from her nose, than died too.

But I didn't showed tears nor sadness to anyone when I heard the news, they only seen my face as normal like nothing happend, but the truth is I was really sad about my parents death, it was really paining me deep inside my soul; yet no one notes that and I don't want anyone to notes that I must let them see me as strong and mean one like a really princess and I will rule this kingdom by my self, I will never show fear, nor sadness, even weakness I will never show it to the life, because my father once told me that the life doesn't accept the weakest person.'

It was morning and a maid came to Lily bedroom chamber to wake her up when she woke She bathed , got dress and made her hair ofcourse she didn't alowed a maids to bath her, or even dress her because she isn't a baby , even if she's a queen, but she isn't a baby .

When she's done , she wen't to her throne room, meeting with her advicers and some of the reporters of the village needs. She set to her chair and moved her hand to let the reporters and the advicers to set.

"Good morning my queen, there is some reporting I must report to you." Lily shaked her head for the report to continue.

"The villages are have problem from the virus plague. They start to lose controlling the virus, everyday the numbers of the dead people are increasing and the virus are everywhere in animals and insects, in everywhere! That's why we're losing controlling the virus, so what to do, my queen?" The reporter was worried about the situation and believed that queen Lily would solve the problem.

Lily listend to the problems and ofcourse she knows how to solve it because she worked hard to find the solution.

"My dear reporter Leo, didn't I made a medicine for the plague?"

"Yes, you did my queen, but it didn't worked don't you remember it my queen?" The reporter Leo gave her a confusing look like she forgot everything.

" Yes, I do, yet my doctor was wrong about it, it did work."

" What do you mean my queen? We so between our eyes that the medicine didn't worked! And the doctor wasn't any doctor, he is a genius doctor." The reporter Leo was surprised to hear that.

" You'll see my dear reporter Leo." She gave him a smile and looked to the guard.

" Bring docter Smith here to the throne room and tell him the queen wants to talk with you not alone." The guard bowed then left.

" I don't understand my queen, what are you planning to?"

" Haven't I told you ' you'll see '?" The reporter Leo nod.

" So be patient and wait." Lily smirked from her answer.

" Yes, my queen."

(After a while)

There is a knock on the door of the throne room Lily answered to let the guard in and when the guard walked in, behind him walked doctor Smith than the guard stop and bowed then left, leaving doctor Smith and the others alone.

" Good morning, my queen, did you want to speak with me?"

" Yes, I did, do you remember when I gave you the paper that I wrote on it a medicine for plague virus and told you to make the medicine?" Lily questioned doctor Smith.

"Yes, than it didn't work."

"No, you're wrong, it's only you didn't put one of petal from the Easter Lily, am I right, or wrong?" Here doctor Smith was surprised and he was nervous between Lily eyes.

"My queen, in the last 3 days ago, I remember clearly that I did put everything and ever one of the petal of Easter Lily flower. I followed everything on paper and did what you wrote." Lily smirked from his statment and that made him shaver with fear; yet everyone was surprised by her reaction.

" Oh! Really! You think, I would believe that? No, ofcourse not, why? Because I know everything, I know inside the castle their is a traitor and that traitor when he heard that I found a cure for the problem, so he found the right time to report for his master and do you know whose the master?"

Doctor Smith was scared of what will queen Lily do to him and everyone were surprised of how did she found out that fast. Here Lily was smirking really hard letting everyone in the throne room fear her. Yes, she is a genius woman to discover doctor Smith conspiring with the traitor that is in the castle. Nothing would ruin her kingdom even her plans, but if anyone dared, than he must pay the price.

" King Kaan of Findara, I always thought, how hard king kaan is working, so he can get me and make me beg on my knees for him to help my kingdom; yet he always fail and that's what I wan't him to, to fail, because he won't have me in his dreams I won't beg on my knees just to marry him. I will always win against him and he will fall to the fire that's full of knives." Lily chuckled really hard.

" Guards!" Lily yelled.

The door to the throne room opend fast and the two guards came in.

" Yes, my queen." The two of them replied at the same time.

" Put doctor Smith in the dungeons until I decide a punishment for him."

" NO! MY QUEEEN! LET ME EXPLAIN!"

" What do you wan't to explain? Oh! Let me guess, you did it for the money that had been paid for you, O Let me remember how much they paid you. ..um... 50pounds and what do you have a reason for the money? Oh, so that you can feed you family, but you already don't have a family, you're alone." Lily gave him a hard look.

" My queen, please let me expla-" Doctor Smith was cut off.

" Don't tell me your queen, I'm not your queen anymore you've betrayed your loyal to me, not just that, the whole kingdom and your people who is suffering from your mistake and you truly mean it that's why you're gonna pay the price."

" Queen Lily, if you only marry king kaan it wouldn't-"

" DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO! IF YOU THINK THAT I WOULD MARRY KING KAAN, WELL YOU'RE WRONG." Lily yelled at doctor Smith and came face to face at doctor Smith and leaned till she reached his ear.

" In your dream I won't marry him." She whispered in his ear, lifting her head up then looked to the two guards that are standing behind doctor Smith.

" Put him in the dungeons until I decide his punishment." Lily told the two guards then she returned and set in her throne.

" Yes, My queen." Than the two guards grabbed doctor Smith by his two shoulders" PLEASE MY QUEEEN DON'T DO IT." Lily watched doctor Smith being dragged by the two guards, till the two guards opend the door of the throne room and still doctor Smith didn't stop shouting. The guard closed the door of the throne room then wen't to put doctor Smith in the dungeon.

" My queen, how claver you are to discover doctor Smith was betraying us for money, But I'm still confused, my queen." Lily looked at reporter Leo.

" Of what you're confusing about?" Lily questioned her reporter Leo.

" I couldn't get it, how did you know? And how did you found out?"

" Well, my dear reporter Leo, it was easy to know, my father once told me I mustn't trust anyone, only my self, so when doctor Smith told me my medicine didn't work, I didn't believe him and I made the plague medicine by my self, I told one of my maids to bring me a person whose illness and in two days, he got better. When I wen't to doctor Smith chamber I heard his voice and another voice speaking to doctor Smith, so I listened to their saying, than I heard docter Smith was saying he didn't put one of petal from the Easter Lily, here I heard coins sound being gift to doctor Smith and doctor Smith thanked him for the 50pounds. Now the only you have to do is to catch the traitor before he discover that we know he's here and to try to run." Lily explained and everyone clapped for her, for finding the truth.

Than Lily called for the guard and handed him the medicine then told him to make more like the medicine and when it's done distribute each person even if it's poor, or whatsoever give it to him/her.

"Now our discussion is done here you can go all of you." Lily raised her hand to tell them go now.

" But my queen we still didn't speak with th-" Lily cut him off.

" It's okay, in 2 days we will speak about it no need too, but now I must take some rest."

" Yes, my queen, as you wish, see you in two days." The advicers and the reporters bowed then left Lily alone.

"Oh, fathe, how I wish that you can see of what I'm doing, you could've told me ' I'm proud of my little red riding hood' oh! Father you don't know how I missed you, you and mother; yet I know deep in my heart that you are there and mother too and I know, you are watching me and here for me." Lily put her hand in her heart.

Lily stood then left the throne room, wen't to her bedroom chamber and got in, than started changing her clothes when she's done, she wen't out of her bedroom. She wore a burgundy satin long a line dress and burgundy wine velvet cloak with hood.

She wen't to the woods walking and searching for plant daffodil, she stopped when she saw a young man laying in the dry grass with some dry leaves, she ran then bend down to see a knife in his shoulder and some blood dropping down, so she pulled the knife out of his shoulder, she search in the woods for a plent iris, she found it and took one of petals, she found water, grass, tree leaf, common poppy petal, she made a medicine for his injured and cut some peace of clothe to cover it. She brought some water and helped him to drink, he drank slowly , opend his eyes and saw Lily. Lily looked at him, he was at the age 27 years old bigger than her and the most headsome person she ever saw, but she removed those thoughts, she heard him trying to say something, but in different launguge.

" °°°|..../\ -- |°°° "

She couldn't understand what he mean't, but right now she must return, so she left him after she saved him and wen't to the castle.

She opend her bedroom chamber, got in then close it. she felt like she's being watched, but she ignore it. She changed her clothes into night gown, than turned the light out and wen't to bed, still she's feeling being watched . She couldn't sleep because it was cold and the wind is playing outside her window and rain was dropping in her window, making noise for her not to sleep, but suddenly she heard the window opend and close, feeling like someone was going under the cover of her bed, she wanted to see who is it, but her tirednes took over her, suddenly she felt an arm warped around her waist then droving her closer until her body hit an hard chest and a warmth breath is blowing at her neck, she felt protective from the warmth that is surrounding her body, she wanted to see who is it, but her eyes were sleepy, than drove into a deep sleep.
