I am dancing with Sir Duke Dorian Blackwood I am Princess Isadora Ravenshade of Rivoria I like to be called Ada because my name is way too long for no reason I like my name it's cute and all but way to long but my parents are disrespectful and call me Isadora anyways so everyone calls me Isadora besides my very respectful bestie Elena Ashford she calls me Ada she has a sister I've never met her sister because there's really no reason to and I think it would be pretty much impossible to be friends with her sister because Elena has told me her sister is guarded and closed off and there's no reason for me to be friends with her sister anyways so I'm going to be the queen of Rivoria in nine months to a year and my parents  Aldric and Eleanor Ravenshade keep hosting balls for me so I can find a suitor to marry so I can become the queen and I'm gonna be honest I'm not into men I'm a lesbian but I've never told my parents because I'm not gonna ruin their dreams of their perfect daughter having a perfect fairy tale love story their not homophobic I just don't have the heart to ruin their dreams Dorian is not a bad looking guy he has dark brown almost black hair that tonight he has styled into a slicked back hairstyle he has grey colored eyes he has fair skin but like a little bit of a light tan he has a strong jawline and high cheekbones and he looks very charming and charismatic and I can tell under his suit he has abs he's wearing an black tailored suit with a black shirt and an black tie and his suit jacket is open a little which is slightly hot I guess I'm just trying to convince myself he's hot but I can't because I'm a lesbian and he is also wearing an dragon ring and he has a black watch on his wrist and his voice snaps me out of my thoughts " would you want to go on a date with me sometime?" Dorian asks I want to say no but even if I wasn't forced to find a husband I would say yes anyways because I'm a people pleaser I really need to get that fixed one of these days but anyways I fake smile and I say " yes I would love to your so hot and your my dream man" Dorian smiles and thank god he gets cut off by the music so the song finally ends and I walk away to the bar area of this ball room it's cute in here it's a golden ball room and it has flowers on the side of the stairs I would never run I'm a princess I can't run and also thankfully my parents let me pick my own dress and I'm wearing this very pretty blue sparkly dress so I don't want to get this dirty  so I walk up the bar I look at all the drinks the bartender had classic cocktails so champagne martini's mojito's manhattan's and some old fashioned's they also have some french 75's bellini's negroni's gimlet's and then the bartender had some non-alcoholic options which were sparkling water with fruit a virgin mojito and fruit punch but I decide to pick the champagne because if I run into Dorian again it'll be easier to pretend he's hot and maybe even kiss him or any suitable suitor but its okay really royal marriage is not about true love it's about if the person is suitable or not and the fact is Dorian is suitable and for me it's not about looks anyways it's about personality and he seems to have a great personality and love is not real anyways so I'm meant to be with a duke so I chug the champagne and then I turn around to go find either Dorian or another suitor and that's when I see her she is probably the most hottest girl I've ever seen I'm surprised my jaw didn't drop to the floor she had black hair that was tied up in a bun she had dark brown eyes an olive skin tone she looks emotionless/ very serious and  her dress clung to her body she had a nice body not that I care about that because I'm still a virgin but anyways she was wearing a red velvet dress/gown it was like a mini dress but still covered her thighs and all that stuff I wonder how she got away with wearing that and I'm a light weight so I'm already drunk off that one glass of champagne so I wasn't watching watching where I was walking and I physically ran into that girl she grumbles a little and takes a step back from me she gives me a slight glare and crosses her arms across her chest I think she's waiting for a explanation " oh sorry your so hot" I say she looks like I surprised her I don't think she was expecting that response she raises a eyebrow and she lets her arms fall back down to her sides and there's a hint of irritation in her voice as she says  "Is that supposed to make up for you running into me?" it wasn't but I would say I'm unhinged when I'm drunk but anyways I say " yeah" she rolls her eyes and looks me up and down before she says there's a hint of defensiveness in her tone but she says "You're drunk, aren't you?" " you wanna dance?" I ask her she hesitates before saying " fine just one dance" and I do some sexy dances on her and then we just start chatting I was doing some intimate dances on her and she steps back her eyes wide with shock and she says " what the hell are you doing?" " dancing" I say she narrows her eyes studying me closely there's a mixture of confusion and irritation in her voice " No, I know that. I mean why are you...dancing like that?" " because I'm sick of formal dancing" I say she lets out a small huff clearly unimpressed she looks around the ballroom I'm guessing making sure no one is watching us "I don't care how tired of formal dancing you are. You're a princess. Shouldn't you know better than to dance like that?" she says and I groan and I say " ugh you sound like my mother" and then she rolls her eyes clearly mad and then I go back to doing some intimate dances on her and she watches me her eyes widening slightly at the provocative nature of my dance's and I can see a hint of red on her cheeks and she says " are you trying to tease me or something?"  and I say " why do you want me?" she scowls at the question she takes a small step back her eyes narrowing at me I can tell by the tone of her voice that her irritation is growing "Of course I don't. Why would I want some drunk, teasey princess who doesn't even know how to act her rank?" not going to lie that stung a little I don't know why she's just some girl I'm meeting at the ball " your rude" Her face flushes with anger, and I notice her jaw tightening as she clenches her fists, knuckles white against the tension she stares at me not backing down "I'm rude? You're the one who's been dancing around like a fool and getting drunk. If anything you're the one being rude, your highness." she says " wow I never knew you would be like this" I say she scoffs her hands clenching into fists at sides she seems very mad at me "And I can't believe you're being such a drunk, spoiled princess, acting like you own the place." she says and the funny thing is that I do own the place but I hate fighting because I got abused in my childhood so I say " ok I'm sorry let's just dance?" she nods as an yes so I keep doing some sexy dances on her and then drunk just wants to vent to this girl it's hard to get all my thoughts and just all of my feelings bottled up and not venting to anyone so I say " I have to get married in nine months"  "I see...so, do you know who you're marrying?" she asks " whoever is suitable" I reply she furrows her brow a hint of skepticism in her voice "And what does that mean exactly? Do you get a say in who you marry?" she asks " yeah I just have to marry a duke" I reply she raises her eyebrow in intrigue I don't think she's mad anymore she seems curious she glances around the room looking at all the men "A duke? Is there any guy you have in mind, or...?"  " no I'm not into guys" I say now she looks confused which is understandable if I was her and she was telling me this I would be confused too "You're not into guys? So you prefer girls, then?" she says and I nod as an yes she nods slowly "Interesting...I take it you're not allowed to marry a girl, then? Since you're a princess?" she says " I am I just don't wanna ruin my parents dreams" I say she tilts her head she gives me a small nod maybe she understands  "I see...so you're putting your own feelings aside for their sake, is that it?" I nod in a way where I'm saying yes her expression softens slightly a hint of sympathy in her eyes she remains quiet for a moment " That must be hard...sacrificing what you want just to make them happy." she says it's fine really I don't want her to throw me a pity party " I'm a princess and I need to act like one in all areas of my life" I say she tilts her head "So you're willing to marry someone you're not interested in, just to maintain the image of the perfect princess?" she asks " Yes" I say she stares at me for a second she hesitates before speaking "You know, you don't have to do that. You don't have to sacrifice your own happiness to please your parents." she don't get it maybe she never will I just ignore her comment and keep dancing on her she seems very guarded and I've never liked a challenge until now even though we seem nothing a like I feel very drawn to her but anyways so now today it's the next morning and I'm getting ready for breakfast it's with Elena and her family and my family too I go and walk over to the mirror to make sure I look good I'm wearing an light pink sundress and I'm wearing emerald green earrings that match my eye's I run my hand through my long deep brown hair I was going to style it but it's just a casual breakfast so no need to go all fancy my skin tone is fair I ride horses but I don't want to get too tan so I always put sunscreen on but anyways I walk downstairs and I walk in the dinning hall and the first thing my eyes land on is the girl I danced on from last night
