"Noo,you can all go,I will call you when am ready" I shushed them off.

I don't plan on going with any of them anyways.

So as soon as they all left,I opened the window facing my bed and jumped out as quietly as I can.

I landed on my feet,I stood up and dust myself and I went on my way.

I was close to the dinning hall,when I saw very familiar figure.

"We are going to take forever if you keep this up"

I'm not as beautiful as most of the ladies here,I don't have talent whatsoever,I'm clumsy and remember I'm just a petty thief" I sighed and shaked my head,I have a lot of flaws. "I see Milady,let's just focus on what we are here for" I nodded and shook all the thoughts I was having away. "Milady,your lunch is ready" a timid voice came from the door,and I knew it was the little maid Dehilla."Come in" she came in as quietly as she could,and dropped my lunch,she slowly reversed and almost got to the door. "Come here" I waved to her and she bowed down in fear,"Come here before I get angry" I pretended to look scary so she rushed towards me,"Sit" I ordered and she did"Go on, eat" I urged her and she ref

"Milady, did you change your mind?" Reena saw me stop and asked. "No let's go," I walked forward and came face to face with George. "How's your fever? Do you feel better?"he moved closer to me and I stepped back to create distance between us. "I'm fine Your Majesty,rather than be concerned about me,I think you should go spend the night with lady Agatha,bye Your Majesty" I bowed and resumed walking but he caught my forearm and I stopped. "Where are you going?" He questioned staring at me coldly,I shuddered, George has never given me that kind of look, but I don't care. "Don't bother Your Majesty, let me be on my way. '' I sigh

She was already sound asleep,I was happy I met her by the garden and managed to stop her.I wondered why she suddenly decided to leave. I watched over her all night and finally left when it dawned to get some sleep before it time for court. Alfred woke me when it was time and we left. "Based on the competition going on,Lady Agatha seems to be leading, congratulations in advance Lord Danbury." The royal secretary said,and the Prime minister smiled. "Don't flatter me,the competition just started, who knows, someone else might win" Our eyes met and he slowly lowered his gaze. I sneer,this man is always daring me."Congratulations?
