"Mother," I groaned, "Do I really have to do this?" "Yes, you do." Two days before my and Shayna's 21 birthday. Just two days. And of course, Sin made a bet with me. If he won, we'd have a party, no arguing. He won. And since we three kids celebrated our bithday on the same day, we all got a party. Figures. I winced as the tailor picked me with the needle. "But, velevet, mother?" "Yes. Velvet represents, wealth, remember?" "But--" "No. Kodi, my son, you agreed to this." I glared at Sin, grinning smugly in the corner. he'd been fitted days ago. I was just dreading it. "You look so handsome," Mother smiled when the taloir stepped back. I felt like I was baking. It would be a long night. "Both of you do," She smiled. "yeah, yeah. Can I go now?" "Don't be so eager, my son. You have to choose a bride as well. Or I choose for you." "Mother--" "You're not grown up, Kodi. You're jsut a little boy. You and Sinesta are. And Shayna's just a little girl." I rolled my eyes. The only reason I was home was because Sin begged me to come back. Shayana and i were doing pretty well but.... "You don't know what I've had to go through, Mother.' 'Perhaps not, but you're still my son." "Not that that means much," I muttered. I quickly got off the stand and headed out, "I'm hungry. I'll be back."

2.Daphne "Ow, mom that stuff your pulling on is attached to my head, you know." I complained as mom pulled my hair to tight. "Hush now, it looks nice." She chided. I sighed and blew a loose strand of hair away from my eyes. I did NOT want to go to the party. But what mother says goes. I figured there was no point in fighting her. I would just have to stay hidden and no one would notice me... I hope.

the two days passed quickly, and I was left sitting in sheer bordem. Sin grinned and leaned over. "No complaints. You agreed.' "Stuff it." "ooh, testy." "You're just lucky Mother's here." "Threatening. I'Il could kick your ass anyday." "Right. More like run," I smirked, pulling that the velvet cape mother had me wear. Sin's outfit was simular. With the exception of the crown. Or the tiara. Whatever. His had a green stone, mine was blue and Shayna's was red. And the masks. Mine was simple and black. Except for the damn velvet Mother made me wear.

4.Daphne Mother nearly bouced up and down as pulled out my dress. I groaned inwardly. I was dreading going to the party. She helped me into the long dress. She pulled on the strings until I could barely breath. When she was finished wth that she pushed me towards a chair and started pulling up my hair like she had two days ago. 'Just stay out of the way and no one will notice you.' I told myself. "Why do I have to get this dressed up?" I said waving my hand over my body. "You have ot impress the queen." Mom said simply. I groaned. I didn't want to impress the queen I just wanted to stay here.
Of course, just my luck I wasn't unnoticed.And even worse it was the queen who noticed me.

"Kodi, there," Mother pulled on my sleeve, dragging my attention away from Sin--and my drink--to point at a girl. "Wow. Another girl. Mother, let me have my fun," I was just about to take a drink when mother shook me. "Her. Thats the girl," She said. "I'm going for a walk," I pushed my chair away from the table and stood. I dropped my cape on the back of the chair and Sin slammed the mask in my hand. "Wear it." "I'm not going to look for a girl to fuck." "KNowing you, anything possible." I 'Accidently' slammed his head into his plate as I walked by and out into the garden. It was cooler out here and I decided to wander through the rose-garden maze. Strange, the Rious Kingdom was underground, but it was always hot here. Odd for vampires. And I, being half vampire, was always dying in the heat. Somehow though, the roses thrived. ONe of a kind roses to. They were pure black with red-tipped petals as well as red-tipped thorns. I plucked one absently as I walked and started pulling off the thorns. "Beautiful," i said softly, coming upon the fountain hidden in the center of the maze.

6.Daphne I blushed and walked away swiftly searching for anyway tyo get away. I'd found an exit and took it. I took a deep breath and smiled at the scent of the roses. I wondered idly through the garden, going nowhere. I sighed and stopped near a fountain. It was truely beautiful. "God, I want to go home." I breathed undert my breath. It was then that I was aware I wasn't alone. I looked up and blushed bright red.

I looked up at the girl, who seemed to appear from thin air. So, SHE was the one mother was talking about. We'll, she was pretty. ''Hello,'' I said softly. I forgot I was wearing a mask until I moved closer, she didn't bow. So, she hadn't seen my siblings and I yet. ''Parties like this suck, huh?'' I smiled at her. From my attire and my attitude, she couldn't tell what to make of me.

8.Daphne I couldn't speak I was so embarrased. For a moment I forgot how to breath. "Breathe." he smiled gently, I took a small gasp. I remembered his earlier question. "I don't like parties." I breathed, still blushing, quietly, "But what my mom says goes. And she said I had to come."

''I know what you mean,'' I sat by the fountain and stretched, praying that I didn't fall in and have to deal with wet velvet, ''Here I am at 1000, and my mother is calling me a child.'' About then she noticed my crown. ''P-Prince Kodi!'' She hurried to stand. ''Kodi. Nothing more, nothing less. Sit, you don't have to leave. I'm just enjoying the garden, just as you are.'' I kept flirting. Then again, I was the 'Prince Harry' of our family.

10.Daphne I blushed brightly and sat down again. 'Oh gosd, oh god, oh god. How did I end up running into the prince?' I thought to myself. He chuckled seeing my cheeks. "It's okay." He smiled. I gave a small smile before satring at the roses. Their scent relaxed me some and the blush went away after a moment. "They're lovely." I murmured.

''Aren't they? They're one-of-a-kind,'' I smiled. I watched the rose in my hand for a moment before breaking off part off the stem and putting the flower in her hair. I stood and bowed, ''Please, excuse me. I must return to my family. Hopefully, I'll see you later.'' She blushed and nodded. I smiled at her and started heading back for the castle.

12.Daphne I smiled to myself and gently touched the rose he put in my hair. I blushed and and smoothed out the sleeve of my dress. I sighed softly and decided I should probably go back to the party. I stood up and walked slowly through the maze. When I got back I noticed the queen was beaming and watching me. I blushed. Kodi smiled at me breifly. I blushed even more and returned the smile.

Sin grinned smugly at me as I sat down. "What?" I snapped. "Mom found you a bride." "I heard."

14.Daphne 'And I thought I would go unnoticed.' I sigehd and let myself get lost in my thoughts. All I wanted to do was go home and read. I was so lost in thought I didn't even realise someone was trying to get my attention. I blinked and turned to KOdi. I blushed. "I never got your name." he smiled.

'D-Daphne," She stuttered, blushing. "Daphne. Pretty name for a pretty girl." She blushed even more, "E-Excuse me." She turned and mae her way through the crowd. I smiled after her before turning to mother and shrugged.
