Chapter 8

The next morning, I woke up feeling hungry. My stomach growled all through the night, so as soon as I woke up, I brushed my teeth and left the room in search of food.

I walked around for a while, getting lost in the castle, but it wasn’t for long because I was able to find the kitchen.

I opened it to find different servants bustling and working, looking serious. None of them looked approachable and I was about to leave when a voice stopped me. "Why are you leaving? Aren't you here to get something to eat?"

I looked back to check the owner of the voice to see that is was a male who looked like he was around my age or younger. I smiled and nodded my head slowly.

"Come on in." He said, smiling and I followed him back into the kitchen. He brought out some slices of bread, lettuce, tomatoes and onions and started to make me a sandwich.

I liked my lips and my stomach growled out, making me bow my head in embarrassment.

"That wasn't my stomach." I squeaked out.

"Yeah, it sure wasn't."
