Prince Conchobar walked the halls of the castle of Kells. He was in search of his friend, Lady Samantha. They both were about 17 years old. They still liked to play games though. As he passed the throne room, he heard his mother calling to him. He turned and entered the majestic throne room of Kells. "You called mother?" he said.
Queen Leia nodded. "Your father and I need to talk to you son," she said, looking over at King Stephen.
"Son, your mother and I think that it's time you choose a wife," he said.
Conchobar looked shocked. "A wife?" he said.
The king and queen nodded together. "We won't be here forever," Leia said.
Conchobar sighed. "Allright, I will find a bride father," he said.
King Stephen smiled. "That's my boy! Now a little birdie told me that she was going to the castle courtyard. She also told me not to tell you." he said.
Conchobar smiled. "Thanks Dad!" he said, running off. Lady Samantha was hiding behind a hay wagon in the castle courtyard. 'Why did I tell King Stephen where I was going?' she thought. Suddenly, someone grabbed her from behind. She turned to see Conchobar smiling at her. "Did your father tell you where I was?" she asked.
He nodded. "Never tell him your secrets," he said, laughing. Samantha looked at the young prince. He was handosme. Any princess that got to marry him would be a lucky girl. She had a secret crush on him, but she never told him. Little did she know that Conchobar had a secret crush on her.
Samantha had firey red hair, and bright blue eyes. They walked along the castle courtyard. Conchobar told her of the converstaion he had with his parents. "They want you to marry?" Samantha asked. He nodded. "I won't marry anyone else but you," he said. The words were out of his mouth before he could stop himself. 'Oh shit!' he thought. "What did you say? I don't think I heard it," Samantha said. "I said, 'I won't marry anyone else but you'" he repeated. Samantha looked shocked. "You love me?" she said. He nodded. "Please say that you'll marry me," Conchobar said. Samantha nodded, smiling. They ran off to tell the King and Queen.
A few days later, Samantha became Queen of Kells. Her and Conchobar were married in a beautiful ceremony. A month later, Samantha announced that she was pregnant. A little prince or princess would be born.
9 months later.....
It was a beautiful day outside the castle, but inside the castle of Kells, it was very gloomy. Samantha had gone into labor just 3 hours ago. The apathocary came out and told King Conchobar that the labor was going very badly. "She has lost alot of blood my king. I don't think that she will survive," he said. A few minutes later, Samantha gave birth to a little girl. She was very weak, but she still had the strength to name the little princess. "She will be called Deirdre. She will be your heir someday," she whispered. He kissed her one last time. "Promise me that you will take care of Deirdre, so that she will grow up to be a beautiful queen," Samantha said, fighting for breath. He nodded. She died peacefully. A nurse came and took little Deirdre. King Conchobar rocked the body of his queen. "I promise you Sam, I will take care of her," he whispered. Neither Samantha nor Conchobar knew that one day, Deirdre would become a Mystic Knight.
