Irene woke up to find her mother gone " mother? Mother where are you "she checked round the house " Irene I'm here" her mother walked in " I thought you left me " she hugged Romina "it's fine I went to the palace to her your main uniform " Romina handed over the uniform " Thanks mum , I'll get going " Irene walked into her room then began to pack her things

Why?!? Why did it have to be her she didn't want to go to the palace she was scared that there was something bad waiting for her there, she didn't want to leave her mother but she had no other choice.

After pacing up , she went out to bid her mother farewell " bye mother * she hugged Romina " bye daughter stay safe and be good don't forget to obey what ever the king tells you , you know he's a very dangerous man " Romina instructed Irene " I will " a tear dropped down her cheeks but she quickly wiped it off afraid her mother would see it .

Irene arrived at the palace full of determination, she was determined to do her work well in the palace and serve the king with utmost faith and honor. She had never been to the palace before so she was amazed and in awe. She had never seen any thing this beautiful.

She walked slowly as she looked around. The garden in the spacious front yard so so beautiful and colorful. As she walked to the entrance she could tell that the palace was not so simple. Now that she was closer she noticed the White marbled steps to the big and huge front door which dwarfed her ,she slowly took it in. She could now now see that from the walls to the glass all looked like a magnificent piece of art. ' What on earth would it look like inside.

As she stopped at the entrance she took in a deep breath as she turned to one of the guards with a smile "pleas tell the king I'm here" she smiled, the guard was marvelled at her beauty so it took him a while to regain consciousness. After a while he walked in then came out saying that the king was ready to see her . she took another deep breath then walked in .

The white marble floor beneath her feet seemed to stretch for miles and the enormous beautiful chandelier that welcomed her dangled elegantly from the high ceiling. The hallway had large and beautifully molded panels which looked very expensive but tasteful.

She was led by another maid towards the throne room where she saw the king,the queen and three other Princes but one throne seemed to be empty .

" Irene " the king chuckled " your Majesty " she bowed " just like your mother" the king spoke "since you know why you're here,I'll just remind you're here to be the personal maid to my fourth son Xander" the king squinted his eyes, Irene looked up in surprise , she didn't known that she was going to be a personal maid to the fourth prince she only knew that she'd be a maid at the palace "And since you're here already you'll begin immediately"he smile but that smile sent shivers down her spine " Galicia the head maid will take you around and explain everything to you ". " your Majesty " Galicia bowed and so did she.

" move it " Galicia pulled Irene away "by the way I'm Irene" Irene said " don't speak when I don't say so " Galicia hissed it seemed that Galicia didn't like her so she didn't take it to heart " This's the kitchen, you'll be in charge of the prince's meal, clothing and everything that concerns him " Galicia showed her around " and this's where you'll be staying"she opened an old door, then the smell of grass, decayed food and moth hit her with the force of a slap , " I'll leave you to settle in but I want you in the kitchen in the next one hour got it " Galicia said sternly " yes " she mumbled "good" Galicia shut the door then walked away.

Gosh why did it have to be her ,of all people she was stuck in a palace with people who didn't like her and a mysterious prince which she'd never met.

She used to live a normal and quite life but now it was full of complications and the utterly hated it😭🥺
