The Prince Is Actually a Princess?!
Chapter 2
[Scene: The Royal Palace of Rosewood – Isla’s Chambers]
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
No. Absolutely not. Over my dead body.
Beatrice Rosewood (Queen/ fl mom)
Oh, darling, don’t be so dramatic.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
You’re telling me I’m engaged to a man I’ve never met, and I’M the dramatic one?!
Beatrice Rosewood (Queen/ fl mom)
You make it sound so dreadful. Prince Adrian of Elivara is a fine young man.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
He’s a warlord, Mother. A ruthless, coldhearted brute!
Beatrice Rosewood (Queen/ fl mom)
And an heir to one of the strongest kingdoms. Do you know what that means?
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Yes. It means you’ve sold me off like a political pawn.
Beatrice Rosewood (Queen/ fl mom)
It means security, Isla. Protection.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
I don’t need a husband for protection.
Beatrice Rosewood (Queen/ fl mom)
Perhaps. But the kingdom does.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
You’re making a mistake.
Beatrice Rosewood (Queen/ fl mom)
No, my dear. I’m ensuring your future.

[Scene: Helena’s Study – Damage Control]
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
You’re pacing. That’s never good.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
I need a way out of this.
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
Isla—
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Maybe I could fake my death. Disappear into the mountains. Live as a hermit.
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
Oh, yes, very subtle. That’ll definitely not make your mother declare war.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
She wouldn’t!
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
…Wouldn’t she?
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Damn it.
Helena Astoria (fl bff)
You can’t run from this forever, Isla.
Isla Rosewood (princess/fl)
Watch me.

[Scene: The Kingdom of Elivara – A Different Kind of Problem]
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
So. You’re getting married.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
It appears so.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
To Princess Isla of Rosewood.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Yes.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
The one who has rejected every single suitor ever sent her way.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
Correct.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
The one who absolutely despises the idea of marriage.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
…Yes, Cedric, I am aware.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
The one who—
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
If you don’t stop talking, I will personally throw you off this balcony.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
I just think it’s funny.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
You know what I find funny?
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
what?
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
That no one in Rosewood realizes the man they’re marrying their princess to is actually a woman.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
Ah. Yes. That.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
If she finds out, this entire arrangement will crumble.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
She won’t find out.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
…You sound way too confident in that.
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
Because I know one thing for certain.
Adrian Elivara ( Crown prince/mc)
And that is?
Cedric Valmont (General/mc right- hand)
If anyone’s stubborn enough to miss the obvious, it’s Princess Isla.
