Princess Ella

Once upon a time..

There was a Kingdom called 'Astoria'. The Kingdom ruled by the King Alexander. He had two sons, Charles and Edward. Sadly the Queen, Bella, died after giving birth to Edward. After the queen died, the King seems weaken by the tragic loss. The Kingdom which was bright and peaceful, now become dull and gloomy.

Prince Charles left the kingdom on the age of 28 years old and blame his father with the loss of his mother. While prince Edward who is still young and doesn't know anything were raised by the queen's maid, Eleanor, whom become the King's concubine not very long ago. Eleanor kept remind him about the reward for taking care of his sons especially Edward. Then again, The King doesn't want to have another queen, he was deeply in love with Bella, the late queen, so she goes as far only as his concubine. Somehow their relation didn't came out as good as she expected because up until now Edward still had not got neither brother or sister.

Nowadays, Edward who is 25 years old somehow had resembled with his late mother or the queen herself. Eleanor hates him because of that, while the king often got mistaken him with Bella, the late queen.

"Bella... err... Edward, could you pass the chicken?" asked the King at the dinner tonight.

"Yes, father." Edward gives the plate of baked chicken to his father.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister had arrived and waiting in your library." one of King guard informed him half whispering.

"Finish your dinner, first your majesty. And Edward don't play with your food!" Eleanor grunt as Edward whom was a little annoyed with his father by calling him with the name of his mother.

"Ah, yes. I will be right there after I finished my dinner. Thank you."

Not long after, dinner was over. The King leaves the dining room and goes to the library where the prime minister had been waited for his audience.

"Eleanor, could I also take my leave?" Edward still annoyed and upset about the previous incident.

"Of course, Edward. You may."
