Aya 


after she fell, she quickly got up, her face was red from embarrassment while I was trying so hard not to laugh, the other girls looked shocked and started to whisper mean things about her, even her so called friends, not gonna lie i felt kinda bad


the first round was explaining who you are and what you wanted to do and why you wanted to marry the prince, as expected most girls basically said the same

it almost made me throw up, yuck,

but as the time flew by 4 of the 5 groups had finished the first round, meaning I would be next, 



f*ck.




¨The last group, you're up¨

the guard said as I yawned,

he looked at me and gave me a chuckle, I just rolled my eyes as I got up, 

the 10 of us walked up on the stage as we sat down in the chairs that were seated for us, I sat down and stared at all those eyes watching our every move, I tilted my head when I looked at the royal family, I saw the queen with a smile on her face, 

huh

she actually looked....nice? 

she had short brown hair with black almond eyes, she looked really good for her age, and she had this motherly look in her eyes that I quite liked.

but the man next to her was the total opposite, he looked like would kill us at any moment, he was on the chubbier side, with dark black hair, he was a little older looking, he looked like he was around 50. and he looked like he was tired.

the prince was seated between the two, he had a black face mask covering half of his face, only his eyes were visible, as expected many girls drooled over him, and I would lie if I said that I didn't know the reason, he was handsome, like really handsome, even tho we only saw his eyes, I couldn't help but stare, he was scanning each one of us before his eyes stopped at mine, and I did something I normally wouldn't dare to do, I continued to stare back, to be specific, Glare, my angry gaze burning holes into his body as I saw him frowning, not long after that a higher-pitched voice started speaking making us break eye contact.

¨And here are the last 10 girls, as you can see they are all quite beautiful¨

he says while looking at the royal family, he continued to talk but this time about how good the prince was, believe me when I say that I was falling asleep on that damn stage.

after the crowd cheered, the girls started to say what they had to say.

but time seemed to progress faster than I expected because moments later my name was called out


¨and lastly, the beautiful Aya Chen isn't she pretty!¨

he said making my ears bleed, the crowd cheered agreeing with him while I just stared at the prince whose eyes were now fixed on mine, I stared back and saw a hint of darkness shining across his eyes, it almost scared me but I broke off eye contact before it did



¨ so Aya, tell us about yourself ¨he said while the crowd slowly went silent making me nervous as hell.

¨  uhm well I'm 19 ¨

 I said as the show host laughed a little, excuse me?

¨not the smartest I see, but really, if you were queen what would you like to change and why?¨  



¨ I would clean up the villages and I would give the people some f*cking food¨

I said as my eyes burned into his


¨ wow that's a new one... and could you tell us why you want to marry the prince? ¨ he asked a bit awkwardly by my previous answer, I just scoffed at his question. and I just straight up said.




¨ who said I wanted to marry him? ¨





who wouldn't want to marry the prince?


who does she think she is?


what a disrespectful girl


what a dumbass


I heard everyone whisper nasty things about me, but was I bothered by that? no. am I going to regret this? yes. I saw the prince looking at me with a raised eyebrow as I smirked


the host said goodbye to us as we walked towards our room, where we found out that 2 girls were already eliminated,  huh



how am I not one of them?



...








BAM

huh

I looked around the room to see that the guard from before entered the room, the girls looked hella nervous, o sh*t am I gonna go home now? yay!

¨okay ladies, I am gonna tell you who didn't make it through the first round¨  all the girls turned to me as I just had a big smile on my face.


¨ sorry but, Lisa, Sarah, Roxanne, Isabella, Lily, Victoria, Eva, and Sophie didn't make it, sorry girls¨ 

wait a minute!

 I didn't get sent home? 

how? 



the other guards soon came to pick the girls up to send them home, I honestly did feel bad for those girls who adored the prince, but on the other side they only wanted the prince for his money or his looks, to be honest, I just wanted to go home, but not being eliminated means that I have to go through ANOTHER round. 

great.
