Sorry guys, I know this is a short chapter, but my creative juices aren't flowing. I promise the next chapter will be more exciting! So, bear with me...

What surprised me most was his age. He was 18 or 19. I was expecting someone, I don't know, older. Maybe mid-20s. He sauntered in. "This is the Earl of Redhallow's son, Jason Alec Redhallow. His father graciously allowed him to be your bodyguard and mentor. Jason is one of the best fighters we have ever seen. I trust you will be in good hands.” There was a dangerous edge to my father’s voice, directed at Jason. He just smiled and bowed. “Your majesties.” Then he turned toward me and bowed. “Princess,” He had a nice voice. He, of course, was also handsome. Devastatingly so. And he knew it. Which I disliked. He had black hair, and blue eyes like the sky. He also had an angular jaw and no doubt women threw themselves at his feet. I already hated him. But what was I to do? If he could teach me how to fight, then I would not complain. I plastered on a fake smile and curtsied. He took my outstretched hand and kissed it. His lips sending shivers of something unidentified through me. “Lord Jason, it is a pleasure to have you here,” I said, hating etiquette. His eyes had an amused tone to them. “The pleasure is all mine,” he said in a slightly sarcastic tone.
He turned to my parents. “If you don’t object, my lord, may I speak to the Captain of Security? The Princess’s safety is of the utmost concern.” Ok, now I was especially angry. He was sarcastic, arrogant, and too good looking. Wait, where did the last one come from? I gritted my teeth to keep from groaning. I was not going to be impressed by him. No matter what. He bowed and exited the room. I looked up at my parents. “Why?,’’ I asked, not because he was arrogant, but because he was an enemy. “Why? His father is trying to unseat you, and you know he could very well be a spy. I’m fairly certain he won’t try to kill me, but there is a possibility.” My dad looked at me. “I had him come here because I can keep an eye on him. You can keep an eye on him. If he sends any messages to his father, they will be discovered. I trust you will not tell him any of our secrets. His father is a dangerous man. Don’t worry, Coraline. Jason will not lay a finger on you. It would be too sudden and obvious.” I frowned, despite my father’s assurances. “And my training? Is he really going to train me?” My father smiled grimly. You need to be able to protect yourself, and the Earl’s son has a very good reputation when it comes to fighting. When you will start, what you will learn, and how often you will train are all up to him. That is all.” I knew when I was dismissed. I sighed and left the throne room, hoping I didn't run into Jason. I sighed and left the throne room, hoping I didn't run into Jason. Sadly, I guess someone above just hated me, I did run into him. Literally. I was so absorbed in my thoughts that I didn’t notice him until I walked right into him and almost fell. Into his arms. Of course. He smirks. “Geez, I didn’t think you would be this willing to fall into my arms.” I glare and begin to walk away. “Hey, aren’t you going to thank me?,” he calls after me. I turn around. My enemy. His father had watched innocent people suffer, doing nothing, and he was still in power because he knew how to manipulate.
I plaster on a sweet smile. I knew I was beautiful, with my black hair, and unusual, yet enchanting violet eyes. I knew I couldn’t seduce him into telling me what his father was planning, so I wasn’t going to be nice to him. I was going to act as snobby and rude as I could. I smirked. Let’s see how he liked that.
