~Third Person POV~
~Three Years Ago~

Vira Black. Daughter of Sirius and Remus Black. The only heir to the Black's kingdom Anisa and throne. Is turning 14 today. Of course today should've been a happy day filled with laughter and joy as she prepared for her coronation and birthday that night. That will allow her to officially start learning how to rule. But that's why they chose today to make it all fall. 
Vira and her maid Payton were sitting on Vira's bed as she stared at the dress she would have to wear tonight. She hated the idea of ruling. How could she address people correctly as a ruler should when she could barely hold eye contact and speak to her father and papa? Deep down she knows she'll be a terrible ruler with all her anxiety and mental health issues. She tried to drown these thoughts in the endless sea of black and purple fabric and Payton's voice.
"Ms. Vira? Are you listening?"
"Payton I asked you to drop the formalities when no one else is around I hate it and I don't deserve it."
"Sorry Vira I guess I'm used to addressing everyone for-"
Vira suddenly turned to Payton capturing her in her eyes as she reached and grabbed her hands. "Do you think I'd make a good ruler? I mean I can barely talk to people as it is but complete strangers? Making deals and alliances and trading routes? I-i Payton I'm scared."
"Well personally I think you'll make an amazing leader!"Payton stated as a bright encouraging smile lit up her face. She was about to continue when a small knock came from to door. "Would you like me to get that miss?"
"Yes Payton thank you." she said as she returned to staring deep into the fabric of the gown. 
She distantly registered the door opening quietly and Payton welcoming her Father and Papa into the room with a curtsy. Payton glanced back to Vira before leaving as the kings had asked. Vira soon felt the mattress dip on either side of her. She looked to the left and saw her Papa and to the right she saw her Father.
"Father, Papa, I-I'm scared. I'm not sure I'm ready for any of this."Tears filled her lower eye lids as she quickly blinked to clear them not wanting to seem weak in front of her parents. She quickly looked away from them and resumed her staring at the dress slowly letting herself be drown in the deep, dark colors. She didn't realize she had started crying till she felt arms wrap around her on both sides as she shook as she struggled to breath. 
"Aw my little ray of moonlight. Your so grown up. Your ready for this. This is why we're having the coronation to show you off to the world and let them know we have a strong ruler now and once your ready and your training is complete you will bring us to do great things. But no matter what you need love. Stop pushing us and that sweet maid Payton away. We all care for you.  Me and your Father love you more than anything. That's why we changed the laws so you could actually marry for love like we did. Because the woman your father was going to be forced to marry was awful. I was just his servant but we slowly fell for eachother, and no I'm not suggesting you and the maid will or should get married or fall for eachother. What I'm saying is love is important and needed."
She calmed down as her Papa spoke. Vira glanced over to her Father who's eyes were filling with tears of his own as he smiled at his husband and daughter.
"Vi my sweet darling, you are ready for this now stop glaring at the dress. I know it makes you uncomfortable." he paused and allowed a glance to his husband then the door."Darling I know you hate gifts but please except these few things from me. I wanted to give them to you privately before the ceremony." with that he stood up and walked to the door knocking on it and opening the door letting some people into his daughters room. One was a beautiful dress that seemed much more comfortable than the one she had been staring out as well as a few boxes. She left her Papa sitting on her bed to walk over to her Father where he beckoned her as the servants left. He handed her a box giving her an order t open the three boxes before going to join his husband on the bed. She looked at the box that had been placed in her hands. She studied it before kneeling on the floor to untie the bow on the top. Nimble fingers made quick work of untying the silky bow. She let the bow drop to the floor before removing the lid of the box letting out a quiet gasp as she peered inside. Inside there was a beautiful set of rings laying on top of lace like gloves. Her fathers knew rings were one of the ways she relieved anxiety while talking to people. She smiled up at her fathers before grabbing the next box and working off the bow and removing the lid. When it opened there was a nice pair of combat boots that looked like they were for looks but when she reached inside the boot she could feel how it would be comfortable for running and athletic studies she would start the next day. She looked at her Father who looked proud of himself before motioning for her to open the last box. She softly grabbed it before opening it. She gasped and let a few tears come to her eyes as she peered into the box. It was her Fathers jacket. She had rarely seen it unless she saw Papa wearing it or her Father had a free-ish day that he could use to spoil his daughter and husband. She carefully took the leather fabric out of the box unfolding it before gently pressing her face into it and breathing in her Father and Papa's scent. She placed the jacket gently in the box before running to her parents and hugging them as her parents cried and whispered meaningful nothingness into her ears. A couple minutes later they pulled away as they suggested Vira prepare for her special night.  They left the room and few maids came to assist her. 
She stripped into her underclothes briefly tucking herself into her bathroom to bathe and shower where she was soon joined by 2 maids once she had showered her self. She sat on the counter as the bath filled and the water warmed as the maids took wax to wax her legs, arms and other areas. Before leaving to a low her to bathe before returning with moisturizers and lotions. They sat her on the counter again applying lotion and moisturizers, washing and patting her face dry, putting on hair masks and face masks cleaning her skin till it glowed. They allowed her to climb back into the shower to rinse her hair as they emptied and refilled the bath before leaving. Once she finished rinsing out she knocked on the door before returning to the bath tub. She climbed in the tub as the two returned and started brushing out her hair. Once she was done soaking they patted her dry and wrapped her up in a big fluffy bathrobe. Before sitting her down to start her hair and make up. They combed and dried her hair fluffing it before grabbing scissors and getting to work. They cut her hair to about mid-back and layered it before framing her face and giving her curtain bangs. They began to curl her hair into loose beach waves before pulling half up into a bun. They then dutch braided pieces to work around the bun re-curling the rest and leaving it free after spraying hair spray.
They then started on makeup. (I don't know much so bare with me) They pulled out foundation, concealer, mascara, eyeliner, bronzer, highlight, and a few other products. They started by priming her face, before putting foundation on. They took out a blending sponge and blended the foundation into her skin. Before dabbing concealer under her eyes to hide her hideous under eye bags. They blended the concealer before starting on bronzer and highlighter. They filled in her eyebrows and gave her winged eyeliner after adding a slight brownish purple-ish color to her eyelids to give it a pop of color. They applied mascara to her lashes and then darkened her freckles that were lightened due to everything else. They sprayed some setting spray to help keep everything nice and pretty throughout the night. They let the spray set before taking out a dark purple almost black lipstick and dabbing it at her lips.
They moved back and whispered about how beautiful she looked before placing a mirror in front of her so she could see what they did. As she peered into the mirror she let out a small gasp at how she looked. She looked more grown up, she looked like someone to be intimidated by, like someone who was going to rule a kingdom should. She thanked the maids continuously as they smiled.
"Ma'am it was no problem we were just doing our job now please sit still so we can do your nails." one said with a kind smile.
"Of course."
They grabbed another kit and got to work on her hands. They removed cuticles and shaped her nails into rounded tips. Before adding a bottom coat to let dry. They then left the room with a couple bottles. They came back a minute or two latter discussing color shades. They put a few back before they went back to a banter over 2 colors. She saw it was a purple and a silver. They came to an agreement a minute or two later. They started to apply the polishes. The tips ended up being painted a silver and the base was purple where they then blended the colors together to give a faded effect. They let the nails dry before adding a top coat to give to polish a more matte effect.
They then ushered her out of the room to the others to get dressed. It seemed the other maids had spent the hours she was in the bathroom to prepare her getting dressed. They stripped her of the robe before giving her a push up bra and a pair of underwear to put on. She put the items on and they then brought out the corset and a pair of shorts. She put on the shorts and then held her arms up as they dressed her in the corset and laced her up. They had her step into a small hoop to give her dress more shape. They pulled up the hoop before putting a small slip on top. They then started to carefully slip the dress onto her. They then walked around her looking for anything that might be out of place. They then pulled out the boots she was given by her father and had her sit down before they put them on her feet and laced up the shoes tightly. They then left with the jacket informing her where it would be placed in the ceremonial hall if she ever wanted or needed it. Payton returned once all the maids left to tidy up the mess and escort Vira to where she will be crowned a ruler in training.  They walked down the beautiful halls of the castle before coming to where Vira will be entering for the coordination.
As the doors opened and she was announced she walked onto the platform that leads to the grandstairs into the ballroom. She glanced down, smiled, and waved to everyone. She eventually let her eyes wander to her parents. Her Father looking as regal as ever in his royal garments. Black dress pants and similar boots to what Vira was wearing. A maroon shirt under a black jacket dusted with his pins. His longish curly black hair in a man bun on the back of his head, and a stunning silver, gold, and green jeweled crown rested just above those perfect eyebrows and stormy gray eyes. Her Papa was wearing black dress pants as well but a white creamy color shirt under a gray moon-shade jacket. His green eyes sparkled with un-shed tears as he gazed upon his daughter. His eyebrows perfectly shaped and shaded with a crown less elegant than his husbands but still beautiful. It was only silver instead of marbled like his husbands and less extravagant in the green jewels placed on it. His messy blond hair was well groomed and allowed to just rest after being combed out to a silky shine.
She heard a boom go off, and she heard a scream, she heard herself scream as she watched her Papa's lips drip crimson red blood drip from his lips as her Father knelt next to him trying to apply pressure to the growing red spot on his stomach. Then another boom was heard and she let out a scream of horror and protest as she watched her Father drop ontop of her Papa the crimson red flowing from his lips and from a wound in his head. She heard her Papa scream as her Father dropped ontop of him. He made eye contact with Vira and managed a small encouraging smile as he screamed at her to run, to hide, to get away from the castle, to keep herself safe. She watched as his head fell back and color and vibrant life drained from his eyes. She dropped to the grown as tears flowed from her eyes. She felt someone grab her arm and pull her to her feet. She saw guards, they wrapped her in the jacket and started to pull her along running away from the ballroom. She saw Payton and a few advisors join with guards. The guards shoved everyone into the center and made a formation around them while running. She heard more booms but these were much louder, she heard cracks and she glanced up and the group also looking up. They froze in fear as the roof collapsed onto them. Most people got caught under the rubble and perished as screams filled the air. Vira stood in wide eye terror as she watched a piece of burning wood and rock fall down. Next thing she knew she was screaming on the floor as pain filled the left side of her face. She was crying and screaming. Payton and a few guards knelt by her side lifting up the wood and rocks that had fallen onto her. Payton and the guards gasped as they looked down at the bleeding, burnt side of her face. It was a mess of shredded skin, blood the eye was chard and unseeing. The guards scooped her up and continued running. Now there was only two advisors, three guards, Payton, and Vira but no one could really tell if Vira would live. They carried her as they fled the burning collapsing castle. 
They fled into the forest trying to escape. They ran for hours as the sun began to set and they needed to rest and tend to wounds. The guards set Vira down having Payton prop her head up on her lap before setting a perimeter. Once the guards returned from the perimeter they got to work removing splinters, and cleaning the wound to the best of their ability with the few resources they had. 
They were in the forest for weeks as they searched for a neighboring kingdom. Eventually they came across one and were able to get Vira proper medical attention and some help for taking down the people that killed the Kings, advisors, and citizens. They were given a wing where the advisors immediatly started searching for solutions. They knew they would rule until Vira came of age. They decided a marriage alliance would be one of the best ways to bring the kingdom Ansia. They sent letters to many kingdoms proposing the idea of an arranged marriage for Vira and any of the other royal children when they reach the age of 17 or 18. They approach the king and queen of Romantica where they are staying and ask if they would be willing. The king and queen say they might agree but for now Vira needs to learn and sudjest sending her to a boarding school where one of their daughters is already attending. They agree and a week later Vira is sent to the boarding school. Once she's gone the queen and king start discussing an arrange marriage for Vira and Reina with the advisors. It is agreed when the two are 17 they are to be wed and announced the queens of Ansia.
