Maybe you could tell us what idea(s ) you already had in mind and we could go from there?

well, my idea is to just have them meet unconditionally. The FMC is pretty much servant to this jerk, and they attend this banquet. The MMC sees her at the banquet which he is hosting and already knows who she is (there's a secret about her identity and with one look he recognizes who she really is). He tries to talk to her but she pushes him away for her Master has warned her not to speak to anyone, especially not the Prince (MMC). When her Master finds out that she spoke to him, he punishes her, the prince sees this and stops it, then she wakes up (after being beaten unconscious) to the prince who then offers her an ultimatum to get her away from her Master.
I haven't exactly written the scene out yet because i don't know how to start it. Heck, i don't even think it'll make much sense if I write it out. I dunno if it'll work if the FMC and MMC have a sort of 'forbidden' meeting, or if i should try another approach???

Actually, the forbidden stuff is pretty popular. Something about not doing what you're supposed to. It also depends on how romantic you actually want to make this. I would rate this at medium-medium high, but I think it would work.

Well, the first meeting probably won't be all that romantic. I mean, they just met. This isn't one of those 'love at first sight' novels. It'll take a while. Besides, she is wary of him to begin with, then she hates him, and distrusts him, but eventually they find common ground. But what other ways could i introduce the two???

You could introduce the two by having everything become chaotic and them hiding in the same or something....or...you could introduce them through something like, and i know this is a cliche, but he is her 'prince charming' who rescues her but then can't find her and looks for her and then he sees her at the banquet...i don't know, just some ideas.

She's a servant right? So why not at the banquet have her serving the food to everyone like a waitress and maybe have her spill something on him or to that effect. He gets mad and is about to scold her when he recognizes her face. As he about says something she dashes off to the kitchen knowing she just screwed up becuase she spilt something on an important guest so she goes and hides.
Or you could have her master talking to the prince, who is making the prince bored. Then offers him a drink and has her bring him something and he thanks her and then looks into her face. There are a whole bunch of ways you could do this.

Okay. I love all the different ideas. It's given me some new thoughts on my book. But my characters took a different turn of events and he ended up saving her life.
So, what are your first meeting scenes between your characters???

Glad we could be of some use.
My MMC caught my FMC thinking she was a spy, and he was contemplating "disposing" of her. Luckily her sister recognized and vouched in her defense. Not exactly romantic, but fun to write.

glad to help.
Hehe their first meeting wasn't very fun for them. Well maybe for Celene.... They met when they were little kids he was an orphan and she has two other sisters. Well she was playing with her sisters when the alpha introduced him to her. The first thing that came out of her mouth was."You smell funny." Of course she was only six at the time and they just found him abandoned in the middle of the woods. Not exactly a meeting you want to remember.

lol. funny.
In my book, there will be a lot of new (and old) introductions. Like my FMC is going to reunite with her older brother after 11 years of no contact. Of course, the brother thinks his sister is still young, vunerable, and has an absurd desire to fight. But really she's the prophecy, a fighter, and still upset with her brother... ah... can't wait to write that scene. ;)
