Upon noticing King Maxwell standing in the corridor, watching her, Anastasia quickly offered him a bow without raising her head. Though she didn't look up at him, she could feel his gaze on her, and soon his shoes clicked against the floor as he walked in the direction where she stood. 

"Raise your head. What are you doing here?" King Maxwell demanded of her, while Anastasia's mind raced. 

When Anastasia raised her head to meet the king's eyes briefly before she lowered it again, she felt his intense stare on her. It wasn't the first time his gaze had fallen upon her, as it had happened in the past, but that was when he was only a prince. 

Anastasia raised her hand towards the window and acted as if she was closing it.
