Chapter 100: The maidservant

After the fight in the garden, everyone returned inside the palace, leaving only the men in the garden, playing board games while discussing the upcoming war and birthday ceremony.

Meanwhile, Ave went back inside with Princess Thalia, while the twins had been forced to go and mingle with the other princesses so they could find their suitors. Ave was somewhat grateful that Prince Aaron had remained outside with his lion lying in the shade without coming to bother her again and make her feel anxious that he would know that she had a secret that could cost her life.

She had been told by a maid that the room she would be using in the main palace had been prepared for her, and she could move there today. The room was far away from where she had spent the night with Lucian last night.
