Chapter 2 - Celestia and Stella (2/2)

"He's what?" the King's deep voice asked, his face full of wrinkles but it cannot be denied that he's still a handsome king with his emerald eyes and brown hair.

"He lives in Theavarian Empire," Stella said meekly. She has been waiting too long for this moment to come.

An eerie silence, the mother of Stella, of course, knew about this plan. Harboring malevolent intentions, the third queen plans to send Stella to lure the crown prince of Theavaria after all, her daughter is also a born charmer almost close to her older sister.

The silverware slammed the table, hard, it made the maids and Celestia have a mini-spurt.

"WHAT?" the King's voice boomed throughout the room.

' That's a brave thing to say sis ', Celestia thought as she continuously eats her vegetable salad. She felt unbothered by the trivial matter, it's not her business anyway although knowing that her sister likes someone from the empire is quite a shocker.

The reason why the King is in distraught after knowing his favorite daughter, Stella, is liking a man from Theavaria is because it is known that the Thusha Kingdom is not in good terms with the Empire due to contrast in beliefs, traditions, and customs. Just by a quick glance in the two, you can already guess that they have so much in distinction.

The Thusha Kingdom follows traditional clothing whereas the Theavarian Empire is already living a modern-day lifestyle, the technologies are already high-tech and the emperor does not follow the traditional clothing anymore instead, you can see the old man in a tux attending ostentatious parties.

Indeed, the Thusha Kingdom is slowly being eradicated from the map since it is known to be old-fashioned and only a few are left in the royals, the worry of the new successor and family lineage is one of the worries of the people, leading some, to move in the four prestigious empires.

Stella bows her head down for a moment and again began pleading his father, only this time with more intensity and determination.

"Father I really like him, I could do anything for him, won't you let me become happy? Our Kingdom supports love no matter what's the form of it and it just so happens that I like that man, this feeling that's burning within me won't die unless I can be with him and I won't let our possibility of romance be of an end without fighting, he is from Theavarian, so what? I believe that he is still capable of loving, everyone is"

Stella catches her breath, and everyone was left with their mouths hanging open, a convincing speech indeed.

'So what if he's from Theavarian Empire?

So what if he doesn't believe in love?

So what? I can make him mine, I will make him mine. '
