Chapter 36- Headed to the Ball

(PRINCE MOISES P.O.V)

I woke up feeling a little nervous, today is the day of the royal ball and I'll finally get the chance to see my daughters all dressed up like the princesses they are. After Hannah returned to the palace yesterday, I still felt worried about how my mother will react to my letter.

I heard Natalie groan in her sleep and I leaned over to kiss her on the forehead, it caused her to wake up and she placed her hand on the side of my face.

“Why are you up so early?”, she asked.

“Just a little nervous, it's the girls first time ever entering into the world of high society. Even though they will be disguised I'm still a little worried”, I said.

Natalie raised up and kissed me on the lips.

“I'll make sure our daughters get to enjoy their time”, she said.

I flipped her over and pinned her down.

“Honey”, I said, looking down at her.

She looked up at me, and she must have known I was about to say something, because she started to avert her eyes.

“Honey, please don't get you and the girls arrested.”, I said.

She smiled, and I knew she was planning to cause some type of trouble.

Why did I fall in love with a mercenary, I thought to myself.

“At least wait until the girls enjoy their time”, I said, pleading with her.

She nodded her head. A few seconds later someone knocked on the door. I got up and walked towards the door. When I opened it, I saw Nashi standing by the door.

“Young duke, is everything okay?", I asked.

He nodded his head and gestured for me to come out of the room. I walked into the hall, closing the door behind me. Nashi bowed his head.

“Your highness, I promise to bring your daughters back safely”, he said, and lifted his head up.

“I appreciate that, make sure my daughters enjoy their time”, I said.

“Of course sir, Sylvester and I are getting the maids ready to cater to the girls, since it's their first royal event.”, he said.

Before I could say something, Natalie came out of the room.

“I'm going to the girls room, it time for a spa treatment.”, Natalie said, giving me a kiss and running off down the hall.

I groaned after feeling someone jump on top of me. I slowly opened my eyes and saw my mother and Peyton laying across Rosie and I.

“Goodness you two are so hard to wake up.”, mother said.

“Get up it's time for your spa treatments”, Peyton said.

Rosie and I got up after Peyton and our mother climbed off of us. I started walking to the bathroom, but suddenly felt two people grabbing me. I looked around and saw over ten maids had entered the room.

“Drag them”, I heard mother said.

The maids started to really drag Rosie and I out of the room.

“What the hell”, Rosie shouted.

“Come now Princesses it's time to get you pampered and ready for the ball”, one of the maid said.

The maids started splitting up taking me to one room and Rosie to another. When we got into the room, I saw a bathtub filled with water and rose petals. I could smell a sweet scent in the room.

“Now Princess Sage, time to soak in the water”, one of the maids said.

They started to undress me, and I controlled myself so I wouldn't punch them.

“Is this normal for nobles? “, I asked as they stripped me naked.

One of the maids helped me into the tub, my body instantly started to relax once I was fully into the tub.

“Yes, this is normal for nobles”, the maid said.

“I'm starting to like this noble life”, I said.

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

The maids washed my body and started painting my nails and placed cucumbers over my eyes.

“Now Princess, you going to soak in the tub for 20 minutes and we'll going to add some perfume into the water, another maid said.

After 20 minutes had passed, the maids brought Rosie and I into another room. It was a room filled with massage tables. I saw Peyton and my mother already own the table getting a massage. Two of the maids helped me and Rosie onto the tables and began giving us massages as well.

“This feels good”, Rosie said.

“After the massage, we're going to temporarily dye your hair”, the maid said.

“Okay”, I said.

(NASHI P.O.V)

I paced back and forth inside of my room. I felt really nervous, having Princess Sage as my partner felt like a dream.

“Nashi how long are you going to pace back and forth”, my brother said.

“Sylvester, you won't understand”, I said.

He got up off the couch that sat on the right side of my room.

“Relax man”, he said placing his hand of my shoulder.

I tried to relax, but it was really hard too.

“I can't wait to see her”, I said, while smiling.

“I'm just glad to know my brother is actually interested in someone, after all you rejected every single girl who sent you a marriage request.“, he said.

“I hope those women don't cause her too much trouble at the ball”, I said, tilting my head back.

“I don't think you have to worry about them, it's the women you need to worry about”, Sylvester said, as he tapped my shoulder.

I laughed a little, knowing those two, they'll probably end up hurting those women, I thought to myself.

I looked at the time, and saw it was almost time for us to get ready.

“Let's start getting prepared”, I said to Sylvester.

(SAGE P.O.V)

A few hours had passed by, and we're finally getting ready. While sitting in the chair, the maids started doing our make up while another maid started doing our hair.

“Wow”, I heard someone say.

“They're so pretty”, I heard another voice.

“Time to get up” I heard the maid say.

She grabbed my hand and helped me out of the chair. Since I couldn't look into the mirror yet, I was left wondering how I looked.

I turned my head and saw one of the maids helping Rosie get out of the chair.

“Now let's get you two dressed”, Peyton said.

The maid turned us around so we couldn't peek at the mirror, and started helping us put on our dresses.

Once we were dressed Peyton placed our heels on our feet one at a time. The maids turned us towards the mirror and my mouth dropped.

(PRINCE MOISES P.O.V)

I was standing by the bed getting dressed after my shower. Suddenly Natalie opened the door and came running into the room. I could tell she was crying a little. I walked over and placed my hand on the right side of her face.

“Why are crying?”, I asked, while wiping her tears.

She started sniffing and in a instant she was crying like a baby.

“My babies are so beautiful”, she said.

I wiped her tears and tried to calm her down.

“You going to ruin your makeup honey”, I said.

She grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the room. My shirt was still unbuttoned and I barely got the chance to put any shoes on. When we approached the hallway, I saw Yeshiva standing there and he turned to look back. He looked stunned. When he turned around, I looked at where he was looking, and then I saw them.

Sage and Rosemary came walking out the room, and my heart dropped. Sage had a silver and white lace dress, while Rosemary had a royal blue dress, even though their hair color was different. I was amazed at how beautiful my daughters looked. I bent down on my knees holding my head. Apart of me wished I could have given them the life they deserved. While looking down, I felt two pairs of hands on each of my shoulders. I looked up and saw my two princesses and I instantly started to tear up.

“Are you okay?”, Sage asked.

I didn't want to worry them on a day like this. I got up and gave each of them a hug.

“You two look gorgeous”, I said.

They smiled, and then I promised myself.

I will get back my crown and I will give my daughters the life they should've had a long time ago.

(SAGE P.O.V)

Seeing my father get all emotional, made me want to cry. Since the maids told us not to ruin our make up, I had to stop myself from crying.

Father backed up, and then grandfather came in front of us. He placed a diamond bracelet onto Rosie and I right wrist.

“This is a tracking device”, he said, and kissed us on the forehead.

“Even though you two have different missions once you get there, still try to have some fun”, he said.

Rosie and I nodded our heads and started to walk to the stairs. Father went back into the room to get fully dressed and we waited for him, because he wanted to escort us down.

After father came out of the room. He escorted me down the stairs and went back to escort Rosie. Once we were both were downstairs, Sylvester and Nashi came walking down the stairs.

“You look beautiful”, Nashi said, while smiling.

“You look amazing”, Sylvester said, looking at Rosie and raising up his arms.

“Ladies are you ready”, Nashi asked.

We nodded our head and then looked at our mother.

“See you two there”, she said.

We turned around and started waking out the door. The guards started to open the gate as we approached it.

“Wow, nice car”, Rosie said.

Sylvester opened the door to the Bentley for Rosie and carefully guided her into the car. He walked on the other side to get in the back seat next to her. Nashi opened the front passenger door and guided me into the car as well.

“Now ladies, let's head to the palace”, he said, and backed up the car

“I wondered how Peyton and mother will get into the palace”, Rosie said.

“From the stories we heard it's seems like mother knows her way in and out of it.”, I said.

"I wonder how we'll be able to approach our targets.”, Rosie said.

“It takes a couple of hours to get to the palace, let's discuss our plan, while we have the time.", Sylvester said.

"I'll focus on getting the Queen's attention", I said.

“And I have to focus on Duke Winter, dad grandfather.”, Rosie said.

“I will collect information from the neutral parties.”, Nashi said.

“Try not to get yourselves arrested”, Sylvester said while tapping my shoulder.

“I wonder if mother will be able to get into Prince Morgan's office”, I said.

“Let's just focus on what we need to do”, Nashi said.

A couple hours passed, and we finally arrived to the gates of the palace. As I looked around, I saw over 200 luxury cars parked and saw many guests getting out of the vehicles. Nashi drove in front of a massive castle. When he parked he handed his keys to one of the guards and walked around to help me get out of the car.

Nashi stuck out his arm and I placed my arm within his arm. Nashi and Sylvester escorted us and we approached a large white double door.

The guards bowed their heads to Nashi and Sylvester, and opened the door.

“Are you ready princess?”, Nashi whispered in my ear.

I looked at him and nodded my head.

“Let's do this”, I said.

The guardmans opened the door.

“Now presenting, Duke Nashi Synovial and Lord Sylvester Synovial”, one of guards shouted.

We entered the ball and immediately everyone turned their heads towards us. I could already feel the tension in the air.
