Chapter 1: The King of Sapphire Empire

I'm still dumbfounded to this day. I go back in time? Is that possible? I looked at myself in the mirror. I look young and healthy, and Im 15 years old with a mind of a 23 years old? Is that possible?

I still remembered what happened in the past... AAAH I'M GOING CRAZY TO THINK ABOUT.

“Princess, the prince did not come today to find out how you are doing. But his assistant is here." Rhea gave me a weak response.

I scratched my head, did I almost drown just so Damien would notice? I almost died buset, so he won't visit me? It's my fault too.

I stood up and went to one of the drawers. I'm sure I won't regret it, I took scissors and cut my hair short.

"P-Princess? Why?” Maddy screamed in shock. "Princess Astraea, the one who almost drowned just to get the dear prince's attention is right. Your hair is so bad" I smiled as I turned to him.

"Rhea, I will follow" He bowed to what I said. Phew! Why should I pay attention to someone who doesn't like me?

I have to change my destiny or I will die again. This is the second chance that I am asking for, this is the second life that I will take care of so that what should happen doesn't happen again.

But first let me change my look and my gaze. I sighed and looked at my old maid with my cold eyes. Im sorry, in order to achieve my goal I need to be fierce and strong. Im not the same old Astraea from before.

"Rhea, Call me Vin from now on. Princess Vin'nyla Glazed of the Ruby Palace.” I said with confidence.

Astraea is dead already. Meet Vin'nyla, call me Vin.

"You'll be next, Princess Vin" Rhea replied politely.

"Ah, well, don't report about the dear prince" I told him sternly.

"Pardon?" - Rhea.

"I mean, don't tell me what the dear prince is doing. Im sure he's very busy, after all he's taking care of his life" I saw Maddy's eyes widen and she smiled at me like she was relieved.

"Next time"

He went out and I sat in front of the mirror. I still have my blue eyes and silver hair, but my hair is short. It's good, sometimes it's boring to comb. It was too long before I cut it, maybe because men like long hair. So I grew my hair longer for Quinn to like.

I just haven't seen him in the past few days. Of course I already know the reason, he was avoiding me. I was one of the future Queen candidate of the Sapphire empire, only during my candidacy did I see Damien again. It seems that he already likes Seraphina, Seraphina Clement was the future Queen of the Sapphire Empire.

She was kind and soft though. Too kind to be true, a Queen material indeed. I only talked to her a few times but the last time was when I hurt her. And thus I executed. Probably because of jealousy? Hate? I forgot…

“Princess?” I turned to see who spoke. Ah Cairo! He is Damien's assistant, he is the one Rhea is referring to. "Are you ok now?"

"Yes, I'm fine now" I said smiling at him.

"About the prince-"

"I do not have any business with the prince." I said let's go to my seat together. "You have other business here, am I right? Tell me. I did not ask about the prince”

I saw surprise in his eyes. HAAYYSS because everyone knows that I'm dead to Damien. Why am I so dead there?

"A-Ah of course, I'm sorry. It's about the 'Queen candidate'. The King wants to see you" I coughed suddenly. Shit, I forgot that I volunteered to be in the first seat.

Is there a way to back out of this competition?

Rhea dressed me and did my hair.

Oh, I used to flirt, so I'm going to die because of my own stupidity! Buset.

I walked over to the carriages that were ready by the guards. Ruby Palace is a peaceful place full of gardens, it is the only palace with full of flowers and trees. One of the best palaces in the Empire.

I went in and sat down, I had no plans to go anywhere. Of course I'm still very tired from death.

"Princess Vin, we're here." I reluctantly nodded, I modestly got down and walked towards the inside.

'Good day dear princess'

'Princess Astraea is here again?'

'He is here for the dear prince'

'Be quiet, you might be heard there and we will be punished'

I was cursed in my mind. This freaking buset I'm really flirty. I took out the fan and put it on my face. It's embarrassing, was I like that before? REGRETS! EW!

I entered the room where the dear king was. He was sitting on a chair and holding papers. Wow it must be hard to be a King who rules all the Palaces.

"Ah Astraea!" He responded happily when he saw me. I bowed at him and greeted himback.

"Greetings to the King of Sapphire Empire" I greeted while bowing.

"Ahaaa, your etiquette has improved I see! You're really fit to be the Queen.” I coughed at what the King said.

I remembered before how he always supported me to be the Queen, but before the competition started, he was killed by an unknown person. Of course the Kingdom was in chaos, so the search for the Queen was hurried and the Prince was hurriedly placed on the throne.

II was 18 when the competition started and at that time the King was already murdered. Because before the competition, we have to attend school. You have to graduate first before you enter the Queen candidate.

Which means I have to attend school for 2 years. Nice…

"So how are you with my son?" And that's when I almost passed out.
