Lilith smiled "thank you for the offer aunt Claire but as a princess, I have my responsibilities," she said,

"You have truly grown to be an amazing young woman, you remind me of myself when I was young, that is why I will spoil you as long as I can" Claire replied,

"You have always been there when I needed you, you are more of a mother to me than...." the princess said with a sigh as they sat down in the garden and the maid served them snacks.

"Cosmo sit too, I said you are my personal handmaiden you work for no one else, have some snack and relax," Lilith said and so the girl did.

While eating and talking Cosmo remembered noticing there was a mark of a dragon and a phoenix on the back of Lilith.

"Hmm I wonder what it means for her?" she asked herself,

"What is it Cosmo?" the princess asked,

"Nothing at all I was just wondering about the birthmark on your back" she responded,

"Oh that it\'s nothing of importance," the princess said,

"The mark was supposed to represent someone\'s destiny, more like their love for each other whether it is intimate or not" aunt Claire replied,

"Ah, so you are not sure which it is am I right princess?" Cosmo asked and Lilith smiled,

"Yes you are right Cosmo," she said with a huge smile.

"I promise you will find your true destiny as long as I am here I will help you realize it, your highness," Cosmo said to herself.

"So where are you from Cosmo?" Claire asked,

"Far away, I uh.. do not have any family of my own" the girl responded,

"I found her on the streets, well it is more like she found me, I hit her down with my carriage and then i wanted to repay her so.... here she is where she does not have to punish for food and will get a great salary," Lilith said,

"You do have a kind heart, well welcome to the family Cosmo, I hope you can ignore her parents," Claire said,

"Don\'t worry I am sure I will be able to" she replied.

"Do you believe in the red dragon aunt Claire?" she asked,

"Not really but even the dragon is at that mountain then I am afraid that it is in danger, people will lock it up in a cage and use I when they want whether it is your parents or others" Claire responded,

"Hmm I see, aunt Claire my parents will be leaving in a few minutes can you tell them that I will be staying with you for a while?" she asked,

"I will do anything for you sweetheart but will you be staying there?" she asked,

\'No I am going to the snow mountain" she responded and her aunt got up.

"Well pack what you need, everything that is necessary, and leaves before nightfall, it is going to be a very long and cold journey sweetheart," she said,

"I will be sure to pack everything necessary but I will need a carriage" she replied,

"Take mine," her aunt said then patted her on the head.

"Will you be taking anyone or at least a guard with you?" her aunt asked,

"We are all going," her friends said as they walked in with two princes which were their brothers and one had a crush on Lilith.

One of the prince\'s name was Jack and the other was Ash.

Jack was tall, slim, muscular, fair in complexion, had dark hair, and had bright blue eyes.

Ash was tall, had long blonde hair, slim but yet muscular, broad shoulders, dimples, and grey eyes both of the princes were extremely handsome and there was not a girl who won\'t fall for them well except for Lilith.

"Are you guys sure you want to do this?" Lilith asked,

"Yeah there is no way you are going to go on a dangerous adventure without us" Marlene responded,

"Uh... your highness what do I do until you are back?" Cosmo asked,

"Peasant girl how about you go and mop the floors" Vivian responded and Lilith looked at her sternly,

"You better stop insulting her and for your kind information her name is Cosmo and she will be joining us," Lilith said,

"I am?" Cosmo asked,

"She will?" Vivian asked,

"Yes and yes or don\'t you want to go Cosmo?" Lilith asked,

"I am happy to tag along" Cosmo responded smiling.

"Where are you guys going?" her mother asked.

Surprised to see her mother she grabbed onto Cosmo\'s hand in fear and the girl looked at her.

"They are going to visit the other kingdoms, you know a little journey for the youngsters" her aunt responded,

"Were you planning on going without asking me or your father Lilith?" her mother asked and Cosmo held on to her hand tightly and the girl somehow got the courage to answer her.

"Yes I was" she responded and her mother along with the others left staring at her.

Claire smiled nervously "no she was just about to ask," Claire said,

"Can you guys give me and the princess a moment alone?" the queen asked and everyone left including her aunt and Cosmo.

Her mother then walked up to her and slapped her.

The girl held on to her face and tears ran down her pink cheek.

"Next time you better watch the tone you speak to me within the presence of other royals, if you keep acting out, we will cut you down to size, is that clear Lilith?" her mother asked.

Cosmo saw what the princess\'s mother did and her eyes started to glow in anger.

"Are we clear Lilith?" her mother asked,

\'Yes, mother, crystal clear" she responded,

"Good now wipe your tears and start packing for whatever," her mother said then the girl walked away.

After walking in she saw the girl standing there and she placed a fake smile on her face.

"Come on let\'s get packing," the princess said and Cosmo followed her to their room.

A few hours later the preparation for the trip was done and they were all ready to go.

The guards placed their luggage into the carriage and her father came out to see them off.

"Father," she said,

"Don\'t create unnecessary trouble for your friends" he replied,

"Even if she does, it won\'t be a problem, let\'s go princess," Ash said and they got into the carriage and left.

"Thank you, your highness," she said,

"It was no problem, your father clearly has issues" he replied and she smiled.
