Lilith Hathor of Aciras

Lilith woke up this morning, stretching in her large canopy bed. For the last week she had been rushing about helping her mother and father tell their court what to do in order to get ready for this day. The day that she would meet the supposed love of her life, the day in which she would meet part of her future family. The day in which, well, was going to come sooner or later rather she liked the fact or not. Climbing out of her bed, she would glance in her closet. Most royal children would have their clothing set out for them, but Lilith had made a major fuss at the age of ten, stating that she could dress herself just fine with no help. Turned out all people in the royal palace agreed with their Princesses wishes. 

She needed something... elegant, classy, and yet simple. And, of course, in her Kingdoms colors. Choosing her favorite black, white and red dress, she would lay it on the bed before going to take a shower and brush her teeth. She took her time in the bathroom, trying to sooth her nerves that were currently going haywire with excitement, anticipation and nervousness. Being the Princess of the most well known kingdom in all of the land, you would think to yourself that the girl would have nothing to worry about at all, but, it was a lot of pressure. You had to look your best, act your best, be the best. She took a deep breath and looked at her complexion in the mirror. Brown, wavy hair, beautiful hazel eyes, yet still plain. Lilith shook her head at the thought before walking back into her room and slipping into the dress. Then, she would complete her outfit with red wedges. Perfect, she thought. Walking over to her dresser, she would then brush her hair, leaving it to do its own thing, add mascara to her face, as well as clear lipgloss. One last glance in the mirror and she would be set for the day.

Walking out of her bedroom and closing the door behind her with a soft click she would bump into something. No, somone. With a light gasp she would turn to see the royal butler, Mr. Benjamin Clarke. However, Lilith as well as her parents called him Ben, others referred to him as Mr. Clarke. "Ben," she said, slightly startled. 

"Ah, no worries, your Majesty," the man would reply. "The King and Queen sent me to fetch and bring you to the dinning hall. Worried you had cold feet about the whole ordeal, I do believe," he added jokingly and holding out his arm for her to take.

Taking Ben's arm and beginning their way down the stairs, she would smile at the man. "Well, I do admit that there is a bit more pressure than on the day to day basis. Meeting the other royal families, my future husband... you get the idea."

"Why of course, I do, Miss Ginny," he would reply. Though Ginny was Lilith's least used nickname, Ben was very close to his Princess, always calling her by the name. Finishing their long walk through the corridors of the castle, the pair would come to a stop in the vast dinning room, her father at one end, her mother to the right and a chair empty for Lilith herself on the left. 

"My darling," said her mother with an startled gasp, "You look so..." 

"Stunning, and so grown up," said her father, finishing the woman's though. Lilith felt her face go red while walking over and taking her place at the table. 

"What are you both doing here," she asked. She had been told that breakfast was not to be served until all the guests was to arrive in just under two hours. 

"No worries, darling, just the morning coffee," said Lucian. 

"Well," the girl said, clearing her throat, "Do you both mind if I chose a book and go to the balcony for the ceremony?"

"Of course not Lil." Alice this time. Getting up from the table she would give a slight smile to her parents before walking back up the stairs, waving to Ben, choosing Pride and Prejudice from the shelf of books in her room, and then out to the main balcony where she would stay until the guests arrived.

Alexander Belmont of Mirenia

Previously awoken and dressed in a classic black and white suit, Alexander would give a thought to The Great Ball as his royal family's limo sped down the road in the Kingdom of Aciras. Sure, the dance was going to be nice, but the fact of an arranged marriage was something that the boy did not, had not, and most likely would never agree with. He had heard legends and stories of the other royal ceremonies where the royal children had met for the first time. How the Castle was so grand, the royal families as well as the best and most trusted subjects in all the lands were invited to dance and eat. 

Alec did not like the thought of leaving his Kingdom for a full three months, but what needed to be done, needed to be done. His parents had already betrothed him once to the Princess of Aciras, Lilith, he thought her name was, but that had gone awry quite quickly. He was happy that the event had been demolished, but, there was a bit of a feud between the two Kingdoms. However, Alexandar thought that it would be interesting to meet the girl that his parents had previously promised him to marry. 

The journey had been long and tiring to say the least, and the boy hated the fact that he had spent so much time in such close quarters with his parents. It was suffocating. Finally arriving at the Castle of Aciras, Alec would get out of the car, taking his place between his mother and father to begin their walk down the large stone pathway while straightening out his jacket to his suit. Glancing up at the balcony, he would see what could only be the Queen and King of the royal family standing behind a girl in a marvelous dress with flowing brown hair. 

That must be Lilith, he thought.
