.𝒎She wasn’t in fact running away if that made any sense. She was leaving while she still had her dignity intact in order for her to ensure that nothing else happened to her.
But that didn’t mean that it wads over and that didn’t mean that she wasn’t going to come back. Quite the opposite in fact because the truth weas that she was going to be back.
And when she returned she was going to be more equipped and this time she was going to be more ready to be able to take him down.
She may have had a large ego but that was one of the things which drove her further because it meant that she wasn’t one to give up. It meant that despite whatever was thrown her way she would continue to stand firm, and she wasn’t going to allow anything to happen to herself.
Because in the end it was every man for themselves and before she could think of protecting the people, she would have to think about what was best for her.
——————–
Ever since Brittany joined the Smith family she had been very popular because of her generous heart and voluptuous figure.
She knew that her figure was one of the things that cause all of the men to be attracted to her and although she did enjoy the attention that she got fort it. She didn’t allow it to get to her head.
She was very kind and she treated everyone that was around her with the sweetest of hearts and the outmost respect.
The people loved her for this and that was because of the fact that. In these days people like her were very hard to come by and because of that they had to cherish her.
As for her curvaceous figure that was something that she did her best not to exploit. But it seemed as though she was making use of it without even trying.
Every time that she asked someone to help her with something that would only take one small look towards her and she would find them drooling at the mouth and she would find them almost falling to their knees as they seemed almost desperate to please her.
That was the one thing that she didn’t like. She didn’t want to have any form of special treatment. In fact she wished that they would simply trust her like they would anyone else but it seemed that was never going to happen.
She didn’t want to be seen as someone who was using them and so because of that she would often turn down the gifts that she was given and push them away.
That wasn’t the reason that she was working in the castle.
It wasn’t because she wanted to seek the favor of the men. In fact the most important thing to her was her princess and she wanted to be there for her no matter what.
She had been a loyal friend to her. Princess and she was willing to do anything that she asked her to do without question. And maybe that was why Carol kept her around because she was so keen on having someone who was loyal to be around her.,
However carol on the other hand despite the fact that she had enjoyed her loyalty very much and liked the fact that she continued to show her determination to serve her didn’t like the fact that it seemed as though she was throwing everything of hers away in order for her to please her.
She didn’t mean to be the cause of any happiness on her end to be deterred. She wanted Brittany to be successful and to find someone that would make her happy.
She didn’t want for her loyalty to her to end up blinding her judgment and stop her from finding love with someone and even eventually working towards starting a family with that person.
She wanted to be the one who drove her towards finding happiness rather than her to be the one who pushed her away from getting it.
And that was why she wanted her to stop rejecting the gifts that she was giving and for her to stop pushing asway her suitors. Although she wouldn’t just agree to each and every one of them.
The last thing that she wanted was for her to get up and turn each and every one of them down.
Carol decided that it was best for her to tell Brittany what was happening and what she wanted of her.
as carol sat in her room whilst Brittany brushed out her hair she decided that it was best for her to say something. The words had been eating her up from the inside and she knew that if she didn’t say anything or do something about it she wouldn’t be able to live with the guilt and the what ifs that were bound to swirl through her head.
“Look I know what is happening.” Carol started to say to her.
She watched as Brittany stopped for a moment as she looked towards her with a furrowed brow in confusion.
“What do you mean princess? I think that you are going to have to be a bit more specific than that.” she said to her with a chuckle.
However the princess only shook her head at her as she didn’t seem to share her sense of humor.
“I know that there have been numerous suitors that have been coming your way but you have been turning them down.” She said to her and she watched as Brittany stiffened for a moment.
she pulled her hand away from the princesses hair as she began to bite down on her lip slightly.
“I don’t know what you are talking about-,” she started to say btu she was cut off by the sound of a knock on the door.
She looked towards the princess for a moment in confusion wondering if there had been a package for her but there hadn’t been one that she knew of.
She slowly walked over to the door and she was able to pull it open to find one of the guards standing there.
He was holding a small box with a ribbon tied to the top of it.
“What is this.” she asked him.
She watched as he gulped before refusing to keep eye contact. “it is a gift for you.” He said to her as his voice echoed through the room.
She turned towards the princess for a moment as though wondering if it was for her however she only shook her head at her in response.
“Is it for Carol .” She asked him unsure as there was a part of her that wished that he would simply say yes.
however much to her disgruntled dismay he only shook his head at her. “the package is for you Brittany. It is from a suitor and they say that I must not say their name.” He said to her and she couldn’t help but groan.
She couldn’t believe that they were starting to have items delivered to the princess’ chambers now. She was tired of having to push them away and say no to them even though they didn’t seem to want to listen to her.
“Take it back,. Tell him thank you but I don’t want it I am sure there is another beautiful lady that he can give it to.” She said to him and she watched as the guard seemed to contemplate hewer words for a moment.
However after a moment he bowed his head and turned to leave. But before he could the voice of the princess calling out from behind him stopped him in his spot.
“Wait stop.” Carol called out as the two of them turned to look at her.
“Yes.” He asked her cautiously. She hummed as she looked towards the package that was in his hand and gave him a smirk.
“You don’t have to tasker it with you. I think that you can place it there.” She said as she gestured towards the side table in the room.
She watched as Brittany’s eyes widened as she began to shake her head from side to side.
“No you don’t-,” however she didn’t get to finish her sentence. As he made his way inside and placed it down before turning around to leave.
He gave the princess a slight bow before turning around to walk away.
She slowly turned around to look at her princess as she stared towards her with a furrowed brow in confusion.
“I don’t understand. Why would you do that, princess?” She asked her.
“Well I just asked you to explain to me what was going on and you told me that it was nothing.” Carol said and Brittany couldn’t help but blush lightly as she turned her face away.
“I know you have been turning down suitors because of me and I demand that you tell me why.” Carol said to her expectantly as she quirked an eyebrow and she crossed her arms over her chest.
She couldn’t help but gulp in response as she ran a hand through her hair. She hadn’t been put in a tight spot like this before and she didn’t like the fact that she was being questioned because of it.
“I don’t going on. I just don’t want the attention. It makes me uncomfortable and that is the last thing that I want.” She said to her calmly but her voice quivered at the end.
Thew truth was that it was a lie and that wasn’t her reason why she was rejecting the advances and the favors that were being sent her way.
