Bab 101: Lavish Bedchamber For The King's Mate

Ember had her midday meal and felt satisfied with her tummy full. 

'Again, I ate a lot.' She wondered as she looked at her stomach. 'Where is all that food going? My stomach doesn't look that big to contain it all.'

It happened that Yula returned after leaving her to have a meal in private. She caught Ember rubbing her stomach with a puzzled expression on her face. 

"Miss Ember, do you wish to eat more?" she asked. "Maybe a sweet dessert?"

Startled, Ember looked at her immediately. "No, no, I already ate a lot…I was just wondering how did I eat all this?" Her gaze passed across all the empty plates on the wooden table in front of her.

Yula smiled as she saw the ignorant face of this young human girl. "It is normal for the female to eat this much after she wakes up from being marked."

"Elder Leeora told me," she replied.
