Alicia's pov
"What I'm trying to say is, princess Anna is a Healer" I blurted.
His face remained facial and he couldn't say a word.
"Her being a healer does not erase the fact of the cruel thing you've done to Simone" He spoke after a short silence.
"Does that mean you're not going to punish her too?" I asked alarmed.
He clenched his fist and faced his guard.
"30 strokes of cane. I want to see her skin turn red" He ordered and walked out of the room.
What?!
No....
"King Lee!!! This is not fair!..." I screamed with gritted teeth.
The guards grabbed me up roughly from the floor and I continued to resist.
This is wickedness...
Dawn's pov
I was extremely glad that the wedding tutorial was completely over and I was asked to return back to my room.
I ambled to the bedroom with my arms folded and my head bent.
I couldn't stop pondering about the wedding preparations. I would be getting married to King Lee.
I dont think I can get married to him knowing that I'm not princess Anna.
I'm just a simple village girl who always wanted to go to school.
I stopped walking when I heard the clear voice of Xenia crying.
Well, she's the only child at the castle.
I followed the noise and met her leaning on the wall shedding tears.
Where are the maids?
"Xenia...what's wrong?" I asked perturbed.
"Its mom. They took her away" She replied in amidst tears.
I stooped to a crouch in front of her.
"Who?" I asked curiously.
"The guards" she muffled and bursted out In fresh tears.
Huh?...Why on Earth would they take Alicia away?
*Xenia! we've been looking everywhere for you*
We looked to see Alicia's maids.
I got up and stood properly.
"Don't leave her like this again. And also try to calm her down" I suggested.
"Thank you, your highness" They muttered with a dubious look.
I nodded and sauntered out of the place.

Simone's pov
I rushed out of the car the moment it came to a halt in front of the palace. I scuttled to the marbel floored area.
I took a deep breath gawping at the magnificent building in front of me - the palace of the Thor kingdom.
There's no doubt...I'm home.
There were maids standing at the entrance and they approached me throwing greetings.
I quickly ignored them and went into the castle.
I didn't utter word to guards or maids I came across with on the way to his bedroom.
Was he there, anyway?...
The urge to finally set my eyes on him was driving me to the edge.
I got to the door and stared at it's blankness for some seconds.
I never imagined I would miss him at all.
I touched the knob and twisted it easing the door open. My heart beat increased as I took a step further into the room.
He was sitting on the bed occupied with his laptop.
Quiet as always...
I shut the door behind me and moved to him slowly.
"Hi Fabian" I whispered and he looked up.
"Simone?!" He gasped and jerked up throwing his laptop aside.
I smiled bashfully as he held me by my shoulders and embraced me.
I dropped my head on his shoulders and sobbed.
He has no idea of what I've been through at Euphoris.
Assassin's pov⚔
I continued climbing through the wall leading to the princess's window.
It took me a while to get settled in and come up with the perfect strategy.
I jumped into the bathroom through the sizeable window.
I held the knife properly and walked to the door.
Immediately I touched the door knob, my phone beeped in my pocket. Sh°t!
Who the f•••k is calling me on a night like this???
I picked the call and stepped away from the door.
☎ Its me, Sir Blade...
☎ What do you want? I was just about to kill the girl.
☎ Don't do it tonight, I want it done before her wedding which is next week.
☎ Seriously? Do you think its easy to climb all the way up to her room?
☎ Don't complain...I'll still pay you!
I scoffed and turned off the phone.
This is frustrating...!
I turned around and climbed out through the window.
Princess Anna just got lucky tonight cause I had plans of killing her in a special way.
