After the whole ordeal was over, Philip took me back to my private quarters. He laid me down in bed gently but his face was full of rage like he was about to kill somebody. "Mary, please prepare me a hot bath please." I ordered Mary. With what had just happened, I felt quite dirty all over my body. "Y-Yes, right away your highness." Mary hurriedly went out to prepare my bath. "Phil..." I called out to him but didn’t answer. It was like he was not in his body. "Philip!" I called with a more clear volume.Philip snapped back to himself and looked at me worriedly. "Isabella , h-how are you?" He asked. "Why didn’t you call me when that happened? You should have called me. I should have..." He trailed off looking so fierce. "You should have what, Phil?" I asked with knowing the answer. "I know what you would have done. You would have pointed your sword against this country’s crown prince."Philip shook with what I have said. "I should have been there to protect you Isabella. It is my j

"Philips ..." I walked towards him. He was still giving me the cold shoulder. "I am really sorry. I have my reasons why I didn’t call for you for help." I said apologetically. Philips was still silent and with a frown on his face. I held his hand and squeezed it gently. "I am really sorry Phil." I looked up at him. Philip sighed after some time. "How can I be angry at you for so long if you do that?" He looked at me with a sad smile. He pressed his big palm on my cheek and caressed it gently. "I was just angry that I wasn’t able to stop that b*stard from getting his hand all over you. It is my job to protect you Isabella, so please let me do my job properly." His eyes were pleading towards me.I know that I am also in the wrong. I am always taking Philips kindness for granted. I feel that I am a bad person towards him. "I... I am sorry Phil. That would never happen again, I promise." I said while trying to fight back the tears.I felt Phil’s thumb wipe the tears starting to gath

Darius had sent gold jewelry to match my dress. Looking at the dress and the jewelry, I sighed sadly.

"I guess we need to wear our masks now." Darius said and waved to his servant.Not long the servant came back with a box. When he opened it, there were matching white masks with gold accent inside. Darius took out the female mask and looked at me. "Here, let me help you." He said. He gently placed the mask on my face and tied it. "I am a little sad that I cannot fully see your beautiful face."

"Why are you dilly dallying here?" The guard asked. That was when I realized he was talking to another guard. This made me sigh in relief. ’So I wasn’t found out. Thank God.’ I thought. "Well there is nothing to guard here in the garden right?" The other guard replied. "It is rather boring you know.""Well you are correct there." The guard said. "But we cannot be lax. Did you hear about the knights that were punished because of their misconduct in their work? I heard they were given fifty lashes of the whip." The guard shivered in fright. "The crown prince is sometimes fearsome." The other guard said. "Even though those knights were from the elite under the queen’s authority, he was able to punish them severely even without the queen being here." "Yes, well they were lucky to have only fifty lashes of the whip as punishment. I heard if they were not under the queen’s elite knights, then they would have been beheaded." The guard explained. "What?!" The other guard was surprised.

The guards will have a lot of work to calm the noble people down.I tried to be extra careful going to the explosion site. Many guards are on high alert right now.’Bob, please be safe.’ I thought and wished in my heart.When I arrived at the scene, I hid behind a tree. At the ground I saw a huge hole and the smoke was coming up from there. When I looked around the hole I saw people lying down. They were wearing black clothing and I knew they were the duke’s men that accompanied Bob for the mission. Some are groaning in pain while others were lying there not moving.I looked frantically for Bob and then my eyes caught sight of him. He was coughing hard, maybe from inhaling smoke from the explosion. I was about to run to him when knights came and surrounded them. "Look what we have here." It was the voice of Aunt Fi
