The day of the king arrival was finally here , I stay in my room , obeying what my father said .while the rest of my family when to welcome the king of Vulcan .
I buried my self in my books , as it was the only thing I enjoy doing aside gardening , writing of poem , disguising as a commoner and walking around the city. I lie in my bed engrossed in what I was reading , until I heard a knock on my door
"your highness I come bearing gift from the king of Vulcan " the maid outside the door said
"come in"
The door open and three maid walked in each with a big chest .
"His Majesty the king of Vulcan asked that your share of gift be brought to your room " the first maid spoked
I observe the big chest "drop them there " I ordered the three maid which they did and immediately left the room.
I walked over to the first box and opened it , it contained jewelry of all sort and rear gem stone , I looked at it with low interest and open the second one and saw expensive fabric of all kinds , walk over to the last one and open it and was surprised to see books .
how did he know I loved books , I when through it and saw a much smaller box inside . I picked it up and opened it , it contained a beautiful bracelet with blue stone it was beautiful . I took it and wore it and it fit perfectly.
I when back to my bed , reading with the plan of checking the new books later.

The king of Vulcan was taken to his room to rest and after went to the king of megalon study to speak with him .
"greetings to the king of Vulcan, I hope you rested well "
his Majesty Callum king of megalon said to king Vincent of Vulcan
" yes I did , but I would like to go straight to the reason I am here " king Vincent said going straight to the point
king Callum was not that surprise guessing the young king might want to live soon "okay , I understand that you are in a rush to return back to your Kingdom so I have prepared my daughter the first princess Amanda ....
"I want the second princess , Madeline" king Vincent said dropping a huge bomb on him.
king Callum quickly regain his composure "I am sure the king have heard that the second princess is sick and not yet of age "
"I understand" he paused and continue speaking "I will wait for the princess health to get better and if the king is worried about consummating of the marriage I give the king my words not to touch her until she is of age"
"king Vincent I am sorry but I simply cannot give you my second daughter hand in marriage , but you should know that the first princess Amanda is of age and ready for marriage " king Callum tried to make him change his mind
but his next reply left the king shocked
" I will live the king to think about it and hope for a positive reply or else I will cancel our alliance and redraw my men from supporting your present dispute with the neighboring kingdom " he stood up and and walk towards the door "I will be living in three days, I hope the king will make his decision soon " he opened the door and left living the king Callum sitting there with a trouble expression on his face
we need his support in the war the king thought why is he suddenly interested in my second daughter who he has not even met .
