Living like royalty was much harder than it seemed, you always had such high expectations and sometimes it was hard to meet them even with your parents' help.

It was an ordinary night, at yet another of the royal balls that your father used to hold, it was on that day, that night that your mother introduced you to your new bodyguard, you yourself were against the idea, you were theoretically adult enough to take care of yourself but it didn't work out very well to go against your mother's idea. That same day you observed Sevika, a strong woman, well-groomed body, heavy and strong appearance, sharp eyes, she bowed in front of you. "My princess." Sevika said, her voice was soft and at the same time heavy, it made you have a small shiver.

Since that night, Sevika was ordered to follow her at all times and ensure her safety above all else. A few months had passed after that, and you learned to live with Sevika following you everywhere and of course preventing any secret exits.

Today was just another ordinary day, you and your mother had been having arguments for a few days now, discussions that almost always ended in ugly fights, the reason? The fact that you didn't want to get married yet, didn't want to have a family yet, and just went about the business of the kingdom alone, was it a futile reason? for sure, you knew that yourself but that night the argument got a little out of line, your mother got furious and pushed you a few times, and then When you opened your lips to answer her, a slap was delivered to your face, you fell gently backwards, onto the bed itself, tears gathered in your eyes but you didn't look at your mother, you kept your face down, your body seemed to be in pain and it wasn't because of the slap but because it had come from your mother.

Your mother left the room slamming the door, and when Sevika re-entered the room, you could be sitting on the bed, tears streaming down your face, somehow Sevika felt her chest hurt with this. "Everything is fine?"
