Troubles Lead To Burden

"That's… against the rules!" Princess Agnes yelled as she pointed her finger at Sierra. 

Everyone turned to look at her with a shocked expression. No one dared to say anything. Not wanting to cause a scene, Sierra continued to assist Taita with her cooking. Taita was stunned, shaking in fear. 

"Princess Sierra, I… I don't want to get you in trouble," she said in a low whisper as she stopped Sierra from helping. 

Princess Agnes grinned, thinking she had thrown a wrench in their plans. But Sierra did not stop helping. She did not want to add fuel to the flames, knowing anything she said would swiftly be used against her. 

"Don't worry about me, Your Highness. I'm simply here to help a fellow princess in need." 

She completely ignored Princess Agnes and her accusations, much to everyone's shock. Even Cassandra was stunned. Myra, on the other hand, decided to take Sierra's example and help Taita out too.
