(Mirayuki's point of view)

"I am quite fond of Izana, he's one of my oldest friends. But I thought that you would be uncomfortable with a prince there." I told them while choosing my words very carefully.

"That's not what I meant. I heard that both Izana and Obi had fallen for you and you had fallen for them. Is this not correct?" Kurai kept pushing me for answers and my heart fluttered. Was this true, they loved me?

"Well I do not love either of them. One is simply my boss and my friend and the other is only a friend and coworker." I told him while trying to be as sincere as possible. But my mind and heart were racing, could they really love me. I mean Obi maybe but Izana is a prince and soon is to be King. What would he find so attractive in me. Sure we had known each other for a very long time and I had grown quite fond of him but I would have never imagined those feelings would be returned.

But then there's Obi, sweet and loving Obi. I hadn't know him for long but that day at the waterfall I felt a real connection between us. But if I want to survive then I have to make sure everyone thinks that I love Bass. I look over a Bass and smile before I begin to talk again.

"But if you don't mind him being here then that would be lovely." I smiled brightly at him and I heard a scoff come from Kurai.

"Now then lets go Mira and we can start the planning!" Bass's mother Lillie, and his sister Asumi exclaimed and grabbed my hand.

"I guess I'll see you later Bass!" I fake chuckled as the two drag me out of the room.

They take me to a living area of sort and sat beside me on the couch. Where many binders were placed in an organized fashion. Asumi picked up one for the flowers showing me Bass's favorite flower and then some others to chose from. Lillie was showing me different locations nearby. I asked if she could show me them. Of course my motives were to scout the land for when I would try to run away. Thankfully my collar had been taken off so nothing would stop me.

Finally I decided on the forest next to the lake. It would be the easiest to flee from. I settled on Bass's favorite flower, the sunflower oddly enough and then we organized all the invitations. It saddened me to know my own father wouldn't be able to come. Sure I was really going to marry that creep but I wish he could be here. We also decided on Steak -Since it was also Bass's favorite... Mentally rolls eyes- and a salad bar for the ladies. Our cake would be a darn chocolate with strawberries on top. Since the wedding would be in three days I would have a guest room until the wedding.

One thought stayed on my mind through this whole process. "Izana... Obi... Do they both really love me? Who do I love, I know I love both but do I love one more than the other?" The answer I wasn't to sure of yet. But Izana would never be happy with me would he, He's going to be King! He needs a Queen, and I'm no queen. Besides Obi, he's so kind and good with kids... I don't know ugh I'll worry about this when the time comes. Besides maybe only one of them loves me. That would make my life so much easier.

Those thoughts were the last thing on my mind as I feel into a not so peaceful sleep.

Dreamland....

I walked down the aisle towards my destiny. None of my friends had come and now I was being walked down the aisle by Kurai. Bass waited by the alter as I was about to get married to him.

The time quickly passed and the priest asked if anyone objected. That's when someone bursts through the doors.

"I OBJECT!"

Real world....

I jolted out of bed as sweat burned my skin. I tried to remember who's voice that was. Maybe it was suppose to be a sign of my true love. Who my heart truly craved for but it failed. I could not remember who was in my dream. The only part I needed to know I forgot. I laid back down hoping to have the same dream. Hoping to remember who I truly loved...
