I watched the sunrise from the window of my room in the prince's chambers and could not help but compare it to the sunset I was used to seeing from my balcony. That place was my home and always will be.
The sun was the same. It was the one I had seen a thousand times before, but not how I was used to.
"Princess, Good morning," Merilyn greeted as she came into the room and I merely nodded to her telling her that I was listening.
"Give me a few minutes and I will go and get the bath ready." She left after that, I heard her footsteps as she walked away and out of the room.
I continued to stare at the sun. It meant that a new day had begun but for me, it now meant that one more day had passed and I could not help Tristan.
I sighed and moved to bathe when Merilyn came in again. This time I did not waste any time. Instead, I took one quickly and moved out to the dining hall where I was supposed to have dinner with the prince.
