Chapter 21: Unbothered

Zuri steered and her eyes fluttered open. Immediately her sight focused on the prince's face with his eyes baring into her, she scribbled and hurried out of the bed.

"Where are you going?"

Zuri frantically arranged her dress and wondered how she must have fallen asleep again. Was she silently suffering from exhaustion and she didn't know? She looked out the window and could see the bright and clear skies. She hadn't even gotten around to catching something that the prince could feats on to regain his strength.

'What a servant I am,' Zuri thought as she faced the prince and bowed her head.

"I apologize, My Prince..." she said. "Let me-"

Jaden who had been staring at her and all her gimmicks with a smirk on his face said; "Tsk tsk... why are you so jumpy, Zuri?"

"I'm so sorry," Zuri said while she wiped her forehead with the back of her hand. She gathered her skits in her fists and pivoted on her heel, heading toward the door.
