dreams of otiumthe land of avelora was a prospering kingdom where the aveneir reigned. this royal family had ruled over avelora for who knows how long. they had a secret though that would shock anyone in the kingdom. this secret was hidden for 18 years and only a few members of the royal family knew. if the secret was let out, the life of one individual would be ruined. her name was diana... the princess who would be married at the age of 19 to the prince of avereign, cedric. this marriage was not one that the princess wanted but she ignored it and let it go on. her parents would be mad at her if she refused to marry prince cedric. she didn't even know what would happen that day and why... the secret would soon be let out and she would finally know.

own hair was revealed and so were her crystal clear eyes."you can never pay for what you did to them... i will stay here watching over you and if i ever see anything go wrong, i will spread it everywhere... and have you executed." she stated and pointed at the queen, "do we have a deal?"the queen shuddered and fell to the floor."y-yes. i accept your terms..."okay, that was just the prologue. and i loved it! anyways, review please, those are always helpful whether it's good or bad! ^-^
