Forbidden Forest

Novella ran into Ezra room and jumped on her bed

"Wake her up!!" Novella yelled excitedly

Novella had a big smile on her face; she was so excited that she couldn't help but smile.

"Get up it is time to wake up" Novella said

" Its too early I want to sleep," Ezra lazily said

" You can't sleep we have things to do we have pre-interviews, Dinner meetings then to the party we go, so wake up," Novella said

"I am too tired," Ezra said.

" Well if you don't wake up I guess you can't see Prince Van" Novella said

''Prince Van?" Ezra peeked an eye at her sister

" Yup he downstairs now looking for you, "Novella said then she got off the bed and stood on the floor next to Ezra bed.

" You know I don't feel that sleepy after all," Ezra said, while yawning

"I know you don't," Novella smirked

Both of them started to laugh out loud Ezra got out the bed and faced towards Novella.

"Is this really about to happen?" Ezra said.

" Yup this is about to happen," Novella said.

Then both of them screamed and began to dance around Ezras bed

''We are about to get married' both yelled.

The maids overheard them yelling and the knocked on the door

"Is everything okay Princess," the maid asked curiously

" Yes, everything is okay thank you for asking, " Ezra said to the maid.

The maids stood outside the door waiting for Novella to leave the room so they can dress Ezra. After a few mins Novella left Ezra's room and went to get dress herself,

The maid picks a beautiful dress out for Ezra. They proceeded to put makeup on her face and curl her light gray hair by the end of it she was surprised by Erza's beauty. Ezra always looks like a tomboy so the maids were proud of the good job they did. Ezra left the room an walked to the ballroom for the per-interview meeting. Everyone met in the ballroom she was late.

As she ran to the ballroom the guards open the door for her, the King was in the middle of floor talking to everyone when the doors open. Everyone turns to the door and saw Erza standing in the doorway. She walked in the middle of the crowd while everyone slowly moved out her way. All the men in the ballroom were looking at her making her very nervous. Ezra arrives at the throne and bowed down low to the King and Queen they were sitting on the throne stage.

'' I am sorry Mother and Father for being late," Ezra said

" It okay take your seat at the throne," The King snipped back

Ezra went on the throne and sat down next to Novella then the King started talking again.

"I want to thank everyone for coming to Novella, my oldest daughter wedding interview," King Nar said.

" Unfortunately, my youngest daughter is not ready to marry next year we will be marrying her off," the King said.

When the King said that some of the princes left the room and went back home. There were Five Hundred princes from different countries inside the ballroom three hundred of them left. The princes were talking amongst themselves about Novella. Most of them were confused as to why the other princes were leaving. The king was embarra.s.sed but regains control over the crowd.

He demanded the attention back to him.

"As I was saying Novella will interview everyone one by one if she likes you. you will get a second interview" the King said.

" Well, Let the interviews begin" the King said.

The King and the Queen ran to the office in shame; When the King got in the office he threw his papers off his office desk.

''My King please come down'' the Queen said.

" That was embarra.s.sing it brings our Kingdom great shame why would they just leave like that," the King said

The Queen put her head down in shame and embarra.s.s.

" There are rumors that have spread around the Kingdom about Novella," The Queen said.

"What kinda rumors," the King said angrily

" Rumors that will destroy a young princess reputation," the Queen said

" So what are you telling me that my sweet Novella is a wh.o.r.e?" the King said

" Don't call her that'' the Queen yelled.

" This has brought us great shame we were giving strict instructions from the holy ones that the woman has to be a virgin before they get married" the King said.

" Those rules were made six hundred years ago, look I am not saying that what she did was right but we need to protect her my love" the Queens said

"Fine, I will do my best to cover up this mess you and your daughter made" the King said. the Queen hugs the King and kisses him.

Back at the ballroom

After the King left the Prince bowed down to the Princess then introduce themselves one by one. Ezra and Novella started talking to the Princes; Ezra was looking around for Prince Van But she couldn't find him. Some of the Princes were demanding Ezra attention they followed her everywhere. Ezra didn't like the unwanted attention she tried to avoid the creepy ones. She decides to leave the ballroom all together and go into the garden looking at the beautiful flowers. Ezra was looking at the roses, she bends down to smell them.

Hearing footsteps sneaking ever so slowly behind her she quickly stood up and got in a defense position. Ezra could tell that it was a man by his footsteps the mysterious man stood behind her and tapped her shoulder. Erza leg sweep and kicks the mysterious man the man felt on the grounded.

Ezra recognizes that it was Prince Van

" Oh I am so sorry I thought you were a creep," Ezra said

" That was a h.e.l.l of a kick, I guess the rumors about you are true," Van said

" What rumors?" Ezra said

" That you are a good fighter,"

Ezra blushed in front of Van she looked down at her feet to hide her face. Van got up from the ground than he dusted the dirt off himself. He stood in front of Reza and looked down at his feet.

" what you looking at Ezra," he said

"well umm, "Ezra said then she pulse.

Van smiles because he thought it was cute that she was blus.h.i.+ng

" Are you blus.h.i.+ng is that why you hiding your face?"

'' Well yeah i didn't expect you to say that"Erza said

" You are really too cute, you're too pretty to hide your face'' Van said.

Ezra lifted her head up then looked Van straight in the eyes she smiles

"okay Prince Van why are you here in the garden," Ezra said

''Because of you, I saw you leave out of the ballroom so I followed you" Van said

" It was becoming to crowded in the ballroom so I left for some fresh air," Ezra said

"I have been wanting to see you ever since you left my Kingdom"Van said

''I figured I get the chance to talk to you if we were alone. I didn't expect so many guys to surround you "Van said

''all of them annoyed me, some of them were just creepy its not my marriage interview" Ezra said

"I guess I am really doing have to work hard to impress you" The prince responded.

"why would you have to do that?" Ezra said

" because I plan to marry you I thought that was obvious, "Van said

'I thought it would be simple to just ask you, but I know I have compet.i.tion now but you're worth fighting for. '' Van said

"Ezra I know it is early but would you like to marry me, "Van said

" It okay you don't have to answer now we have plenty of time," Van said

Ezra just stood there with nothing to say Ezra quickly changes the subject. Ezra and Van continue to have other conversations about different matters. Van and Ezra walked around the garden they bonded However, Novella wasn't having much fun with her company. When Ezra left the prince began to make rude comments toward Novella.

Inside the Ballroom

One of the Princes locked the door so they can be alone. The Princes surround Novella. Everyone started to interrogate her with a question about the rumors that were spreading.

"Everyone shut the h.e.l.l up, "Prince Kanji yelled

He walked in the middle of the crowd and stood in front of Novella. Prince Kanji was six feet tall with golden smooth skin. he has light brown eyes with light brown hair. his hair is medium length with a silky straight texture.

Prince Kanji always wears his hair in his face, he played much sports so he is muscular.

" You have such a pretty face its too bad if those rumors are true about you," Kanji said eyeing her

" You can't believe everything you hear" Novella Replied

"I don't think this just hearsay why else would three hundred princes leave your event, "Kanji spat back

" Why don't you go and ask them," Novella said rolling her eyes

"Well I did, I was told last year you had a boyfriend he was planning on marrying you until he found you giving oral to his best friend," Kanji shouted

Everyone laughed at her and yelled at her calling her different names

" if you think I am a wh.o.r.e why are you here?"Novella said

''Well I am just here for the free food plus I wanted to see your little sister I heard she was a doll'' Kanji smirked

" You stay away from my sister you're such a.s.shole," Novella said to Kanji

"I don't care what a wh.o.r.e thinks of me, however, I want to know how good of a wh.o.r.e you are" Kanji said

Even though Kanji was trying to provoke Novella she stays calm on the outside but on the inside she was very angry and embarra.s.sed. however, she knew she had to handle this a.s.shole like a lady.

" Don't make me laugh you keep calling me a wh.o.r.e but none of you have even slept with me how can you say something without proving,'' Novella said

"I Guess your right maybe you should prove it, "Kanji said

"I will, my father have a line up the best doctors to prove that I am pure," Novella said

''Those tests can be fake I am talking about right now by having s.e.x with one of us. during s.e.x, if it proves that you are Virgin the man you have s.e.x with will have to marry you" Kanji said

"So what do you say wh.o.r.e," Kanji said again

"I say go to h.e.l.l," Novella said

Novella kneed Kanji in his family jewels and walked out of the ballroom.

Kanji haunched down in pain and called her all kinda names. She smiles and walked out the ballroom feeling satisfied however she felt embarra.s.sed because she was a wh.o.r.e. She was feeling down so she went to go talk to Erza. She looks all around the castle and couldn't find her the next thing she checks was the garden. From the top of the balcony, she could see Ezra and Van from a distance she saw them laughing and talking. she didn't know what they were talking about but she could tell that they both were happy. She had this strange feeling she never felt before seeing them happy together made her very unhappy. She decides to call it a day and go to her room she took a long bath and washed all the trouble aways. however, Erza and Van stayed together all day until the night they finally said goodbye and went to their rooms.

Next Morning

The King invited all his guests at the Breakfast table Ezra was late she overslept. Soon she woke up she went to the dining all and seat down at the table. Everyone was talking among themselves so no one notices her sneak in beside her father. The second in command came into the dining hall and whispered something in the King's ear. The King got up from the dining table then got everyone attention.

"I am afraid my wife and I have other matter to handle so I will be leaving early but please continue to enjoy your meal, "King said

The Queen and King got up from the table and walked out of the dining hall with the second in command. The room got quiet for a sec when the King and Queen left the room all you could hear was the silverware moving around. Novella put on a fake smile and continue to eat her food. Ezra was sitting right next to her but she didn't care to put on a smile. Kanji was sitting across from them both he knew they're personally was different.

" Novella, do you think you would make a great mom?"Kanji said randomly

" What makes you ask that question?"Novella said

"Are you going to answer my question?"Kanji replied

" Of course, I would make a great mother" Novella said with a fake smile

Kanji smirked at Novella because he could tell she was fake.

" What about you Ezra would you be a good mother?"Kanji said.

"If I am ever with a child I would do my best but to be honest I don't want any kid," Ezra said

Every man in the room was stock that she would say that so bluntly without even a thought. But thats how Ezra has always been she speaks her mind no matter what. She was unapologetic real with her self and others She didn't care what people had to say about her. There were was a long silence then Kanji laughed at what Ezra said he found her interesting. Kanji is the kinda man that gets bored easily with a woman but with Ezra, he felt like he could never get bored with her.

"What are you laughing at?" Ezra said

" You because your funny"Kanji said

" If you laugh at silly things like that I wonder what would happen if I really start telling jokes," Ezra said

Everyone laughed at Ezra saying that she was different from the other princess.

"I never heard a young Princess say they don't want any kids nowadays thats all women want" Prince Maze said.

" Most Princesses want a King to take care of them but I can take good care of my self," Erza said proudly

"Everything a king can give me I already have I am interested in the thing I don't have, "Erza said

"I see you have a unique theory but what if it your wrong," Kanji said

"I am not"Erza said bluntly

While Kanji and Erza were having a discussion, Private Washout came in the room he salutes and stood in attention then said, permission to speak Captain Ezra.

" You may speak, "Erza said

''General has sent me to get you so you can talk to the new recruit " Private Washout said

Ezra got up from the table; Private Washout had an Extra sword in his hand he handed it to Erza. Ezra hooks the sword on the side of her sword holder Kanji didn't want Ezra to leave because he wasn't done Grilling her. He couldn't resist to provoke her he wanted to know if she could handle the pressure. He sat there in his seat thinking about what could he do to Provoke her more then he thought of something he could do. While Ezra was walking toward the door with Private Washout Kanji took an apple from the apple basket Kanji threw the apple at her.
