I slowly open my eyes and try to process where I am.
"Who's room is this?" I get up, almost getting dizzy I grab the nearest table to get stability. Walking around the only thing I see is how bright this room is. White sheets, white curtains, white walls…not white but almost a beige colour. It's pretty- wait I think I remember the description of this exact room in the book.
"Which chapter was it?" I tap my chin and think hard as I walk left and right.
A very bright and peaceful bedroom. "Chapter 21?" I walk towards the window still thinking. "No, maybe chapter 27."
I look outside the window and my memory strats running. "Chapter 18!" I look back at the bedroom my mouth open as wide as my eyes. "This is K-Kai Cillian's bedroom…!"
Oh my. Did I directly land here, in his room?
Wait!
Why do I feel like i'm wearing something heavy? I had pj's on.
I walk past a mirror and stop in shock. Turning back I look at myself. "Princess Rubina Astoria!"
What? Why is my face…
Did I get here as Princess Rubina? but why her?
I touch my- Princess's face, wow, she's pretty. Honey brown eyes, almost brown hair, her dimple, oh I forgot she had a dimple. She's way prettier, more than the description in the book.
I keep staring at the mirror. If I am her that means— THAT MEANS I AM ACE'S FIANCÉ!?
No! why?
In the book, Rubina Astoria is Ace's fiancé not because they like each other, because their parents set their marriage. The female lead is Elvira Freya she's also a princess but her empire is not as powerful as Rubina Astoria. Elvira and Ace liked each other but their parents wanted power over their children's happines, that's how every fictional story is. Elvira's parents decided if not Ace then why not Kai? so they fixed their marriage, after all both brothers are royal blood, from different mothers. Ace is the older son, his mom is the first wife of the king and Kai is the younger son from the king's second wife.
All I asked was to be with Kai and you had to get me stuck with Ace? Why god, why!?
And the worst part is, I didn't read the ending. I don't even know who am I gonna end up with.
Or wait… if i'm here and I know what's gonna happen from chapter 1 to chapter 180, does that mean I can change the story?
This story only had 200 chapters, and I know almost everything the only thing I don't know is the ending.
I don't even remember what i've read, the only parts I remember were from Kai's chapters.
thump
"Ahh!" I scream. Getting scared I hide underneath the table, where anyone can see me.
Did someone open the door or broke the door?
Why am I hiding?
I am Princess Rubi-
"Princess Ruby?"
Someone calls my name.
"Are you well?"
Such a soft voice almost like honey. Is this Kai?
I look up still from under the table. Oh my my…what a beautiful-
"Princess? why are you hiding in there?" He asks.
Oh, I made a fool of myself. I immediately get up and straighten my heavy dress. "Uhm I- Uh…" I scratch my head.
"Are you feeling alright?"
"Oh haha am I? haha no- I mean yes?"
Shut up, Bella. Stop embarrassing yourself- no I mean Princess Ruby.
How do I act like a princess?
I place my hand on my mouth and try to laugh like a lady. "Huhuhu~" I definitely looked like a baboon. "Uh- I actually fell." I smile widely giving the excuse.
"Oh, are you unharmed? Have you sustained any injuries?"
Huh?
What english is this?
"Princess?"
"Oh uh…huh? yeah yeah no worries i'm all good."
He keeps looking at me, almost like he's worried for my mental health.
Oh! well no wonder he's worried. Princess Rubina is a quite and well mannered woman, I shouldn't forget that i'm not Bella anymore. But I don't even know who's who I just know their personality descriptions not faces, I should find a way.
Idea!
"Uh, actually I hit my head while I was swimming so I don't remember- actually I think I lost my memory." I place my hand on my head acting as if i'll faint.
And I do, I fall in his arms.
This is perfect, they won't question this. I'm so smart. This way I get to know who's which character and also be close to this beautiful man.
"Princess, I believe you need some rest." He frowns, worried—but he looks at me as if i'm an alien.
Shouldn't he yell and call the doctor or whatever?
I stare at him, hoping he would cause a scene. At least i'd be able to see every character.
"Princess?" He calls.
I snap out of my thoughts and blink twice.
"Do you want me to call your lady in waiting?"
"Yes…?" I answer, not letting go of him.
He looks at my hand grabbing his bicep then at me. Waiting for my creepy ass to let go of him.
"Oh." I stand straight, smiling nervously.
He walks out and soon the lady in waiting enters. Perfect posture, head bowed down and ready to serve. "Your Highness, shall I call for the physician?" Her tone polite, she slightly raises her head. "Or would you like to rest?"
I stand still, looking at her. Not aware she's talking to me.
"Your Highness?"
I look at my right then at my left then at the back then at her and point at myself…she's calling me that?
Oh shit—I keep forgetting. "Oh haha, yes yes…me, I am the princess. Huhuh~ I would like to go to the garden, maid—" Wait, I shouldn't call her that, Princess Rubina is quite—very close to her. I forgot her name. "I meant…lady…" I hum, thinking her name. "Umm…lady…" I start walking back and forth tapping my forehead, my eyes shut. What was her name? What was it—oh! Elise! I stand straight, holding my chin high. "Lady Elise, I would like to take a walk in the garden."
She's frozen, looking at me with worry. "Your Highness, I believe it would be best if you rested instead of going out."
I stop, looking at her. Why does everyone want me to rest?
Maybe cause you're acting weird?
"Ugh. Fine…I think I should just lay down in this queen sized, warm, fluffy, cozy bed…" I act as if I got sentenced but inner me is very happy. Sleeping and doing nothing is my top hobby.
I jump on the bed and breathe out.
Maybe if I sleep, i'll go back to my world.
My eyes flutter shut and soon I was asleep.
Hours Later
I hear people talking—no, fighting?
I slowly open my eyes and sit up rubbing my eyes. Even a princess can't sleep peacefully?
Where are these sounds coming from?
