Annabelle

We had been driving for a solid five hours before I started to see the actual palace from where we were driving. I couldn't help but think that if I could see it from here how humongous it would look up close. After what seemed like forever we started driving up a dwindling lane that would lead to the large black gates that are probably heavily guarded. Logan's black mustang came to a stop infront of us before Bryce had started driving it again. A canopy of trees hung over us and then suddenly disappeared. I saw the large black gates pass the car and new we had come inside. When I looked forward again my breath caught in my throat. The palace was huge. It looked maybe three stories up and was long enough to make up three mansions. Their was a circular driveway that we were currently parking into. In the middle of the drive stood a very gorgeous fountain surrounded by blue and purple flowers. Opening my door I stepped out and looked back toward the mansion. There was two large mahogany doors outlined in gold with intricate door handles. My mom and dad had already gotten out . Logan and Bryce had started unloading the luggage from the trunks of the cars and seemed to be handling it fine. Turning around I took a deep breath before sarting up the stairs that led to the doors.

When I got to the top a doorman that I hadn't noticed earlier, opened the door for me with a tip of his hat. I smiled politely and walked inside. I gawked at my surroundings. There was a chandelier hanging overhead and a dwindling staircase on the leaft and right side heading upstairs. The floors where a shiny cream marble. To my left was a corridor that lead off to probably a kitchen. To the middle corrider under the staircase was a hallway and to the right of that hallway was a corrider that seemed to lead into a living room. It was nicely furnished with golden intricate designs on each sofa with white carpet from what I could see, as I was still standing in the fron entrance. I decided to take my chances going up the staircase. It was like in those princess movies it spiraled all the way up. When I was at the top there was a corridor with doors on each side of the walls with a fair enough space in between. I walked further down and saw a open door. I heard some talking from inside so walked over to the door. Inside was my mom with my dad.

"Hey." I said as I walked in.

"Hi darling, would you like me to show you to your room." My mom asked.

"Yes please."

My mom got up out of the leather chair she was sitting in. We appeared to be in an office with my dad sitting behind an oak desk reading something of off an apple computer. Me and my mom walked out of the office. She lead me to a different flight of stairs the opposite way I came from. When we reached the top of this flight it seemed to only have three doors one on the left side wall, right, and the middle. My mom lead me to the middle one and opened the door.

Looking up I nearly choked on nothing but air, this room was perfect. I walked further inside and stared at it in awe it looked like something out of a magazine. The carpet was lush and black. I had a big bed facing me with a window over the headrest. To my right their was offcourse a balcony that had white and silver french doors. The balcony railing outside was white and their were some fancy lounge chairs with teal blue throw pillows and a small glass table. Looking again into my room I saw the small black chandelier hanging on the ceiling. My bed cover was a hot pink, lime green, teal blue, and lavender purple poke a dotted comforter. The curtains matched. On my bed were some furry hot pink pillows. There were four bean bags each in a different corner of the room. One dark purple, dark pink, lime green, and teal blue. I saw a white dresser and matching vanity and night stand with a lava lamp ontop. To the left of the room I saw a door near a corner, which most likely lead to a bathroom. Next to the door was some curtains, when I pulled them back I saw a walk-in closet.

"I'll let you explore your room by yourself." My mom said with a slight smile to her voice. I just simply nodded.

The moment the door shut I ran into the walk in closet. The first thing that caught my attention was the small table in the middle of the closet. It had different types of wallets and belts. On each side of me were rows of dresses,tops, and skirts. The dresses, being the most in quantity, had different kinds. Casual,elegant, and formal dresses. On the bottom of the dresses were rows of shoes. Stilettos were a majority then strappy heels and pointed kind. Next to those were some different kinds of flats, sandals, and to my relief converse. In the center back of the closet was a remote control in a basket with a note attached.

Dear Annabelle,

If your reading this you should now that these were some of my first jewelry that I had. Some of it had been passed down and is very special. It is all organised in sections. The newer jewelry is farther up and older and more expensive farther down. There are also some crowns suited for a princess included a different crowns each row that will best match the jewelry in that row. Enjoy!

Sincerely,

Mom :)

I squealed and looked at the number one button, I pressed it and the first row slid out. There was gold necklaces that had mostly red colored rubies and the lighter pink rubies. There was a gold crown with small rubies on it. The next rows were also somewhat color coordinated with matching jewelry. There were yellow quarts, green emeralds, and light and dark blue sapphires, with purple quarts. The last row popped out and I gasped. In the middle was a large diamond surrounded by smaller diamonds. It was oval shaped and on a thick white gold chain that had small embedded diamonds. It came with two different diamond bracelets. The crown was simply amazing. It started upwards in a winding design. It formed small floral patterns. It pointed at the top. In the middle of the entire crown was an oval shaped opening holding a diamond that matched the necklace. I new it was almost time for dinner to be served so I walked out of the closet and went into my room. I saw my luggage by the foot of my bed and pulled out some pajamas.

Five minutes later I walked out of my amazing bathroom with washed hair that was in a braid, and my hello kitty pajamas on. I walked out of my bedroom and went down the stairs that were at the end of this corridor I walked through the next empty corridor and down the spiraling steps that lead to the front of the main part of the house. I turned right and walked down that corridor, that lead to the kitchen and dining hall. I walked to the table and saw Logan,Bryce,Mom, and my dad all sitting and talking. I sat down next to Logan and immediately the food was served.

"Oh i'm sorry were you guys waiting for me?" I asked.

"No sis, it's fine we just got here." Bryce answered.

"Oh okay."

The lid on my grey platter was lifted by the waiter who was smiling warmly at me. I wonder why everyone around the palace seemed so happy to see me. In my platter was cooked lobster tail and some crab with a baked potato.

"Mom, how come everybody that works here seems so happy when they see me?" I asked.

"Well, when you were kidnapped everyone mourned the loss of their princess so their happy to have you back."

I nodded and continued eating my dinner. It was delicious. The lobster seemed to melt in my mouth. I was sipping some of the white wine served with the dinner, I'll have to get used to this. It wasn't exactly legal to drink alcohol at eighteen. Apparently for royalty it was though. It was hard to eat because Logan would keep purposely brushing his leg against mine. It made me jolt upright slightly the first time when sparks went up my leg. By his smirk I knew he knew it was distracting me. When I finally finished I said good night to my parents before heading up to my room. When I got to my door I walked in and closed the door quietly. I walked over to my bed and snuggled into the sheets, the bed dipped comfortably and the moment my eyes closed I fell into a comfortable slumber. My last thought was. This is my new life now and i'm happy.

*Three months later*

I couldn't help but think of the event that led up to me being here it really was shocking, but what was more shocking was that i'm happily marked, engaged, and oh did I mention pregnant. Finally. About two weeks after we came here my parents held a ball to welcome back me the 'princess.' At first it had been hard after I realised I technically did have other parents who raised me. I had called them and told my foster Mom-I guess you could say- and told her everything. She admitted that yes her and my 'foster dad' had technically adopted me but never saw it that way. I still loved them alot, but after the conncetion with my parents came back I couldnt help but love them a little more. Me and my 'adoptee parents' made an agreement that they would visit when they could but wouldn't ask me or Logan to see them since they know knew we had loads of responsibility on our shoulders.

I couldn't help but think of the events that led up to me being here it really was shocking, but what was more shocking was that i'm happily marked, engaged, and oh did I mention pregnant. Finally. I loved the fact that Logan had finally marked me and made me his, Bryce was constantly teasin him saying how whipped he was, but he didn't care he loved it.

What he didn't know though was that I was pregnant. For royals we had the whole nine month cycle instead of four like regular wolves. The only ones who know i'm pregnant are my mom,dad, and brother. My mom was the first to notice when I went to go throw up one morning during breakfast. Logan was busy training to become the next King with my father so only me and my mom and Bryce were having breakfast together. My mom came to help me and when she smelled the scent of the vomit she smiled, it was pretty gross. But, since my mom has already had kids she could smell the 'sea sickness' she automatically knew I was pregnant.

As of right now I was sitting on a bench in the gardens cradling my noticeable bump, to Logan it probably looked like I gained weight. It was getting harder and harder to conceal, but after tomorrow I wouldn't have to hide it anymore. Yes, tomorrow was our wedding, mine and Logan's. I was a bundle of nerves, but somehow knew it'd turn out okay. I admit getting pregnant,engaged, and married at eighteen sounds drastic, but 'hey if Bella Swan could do it so could I.' The only difference was I was carrying a werewolf baby not half vampire/human baby that drained the life out of me. Yeah, my mom introduced the "Twilight Series" to me and thought I would like to read it. I read all the books and my mom also had the first four movies. We went and saw the finale last Friday at a private showing, perks of being royalty, it was awesome. And I have to admit for a 'vampire' Robert Pattinson was hot.

I slowly watched as the sun begin to set and the sky turned a beautiful orange and pink. The end of another beautiful day with me and my twins. Oh yeah did I mention I'm having two babies. I didn't want to know the sex of them yet I wanted it to be a surprise when i gave birth. Yikes, birth sounds scary and is painful according to mom. I have the names planned out and everything. If I have two boys their names will be Brody and Cooper Lawnters which is Logan's last name. If I have two girls their names will be Evangeline and Serenity. But, if I have a boy and a girl their names will be William and Genevieve. See it's all planned out. Now I just have to wait six more months and see.
