The Party Is Over

"No." She shook her head at the idea of showing it to his highness and heartlessly crumpled the note in her hand till her palm formed a tight fist.

Why should she be scared about his Highness's threat when she has no hand in this? She certainly has nothing to do with Anna's absence and it's not like she got kidnapped, Anna had left the palace by herself, she saw her leave with her own two feet so she won't just stand and let his highness accuse her for any of this.

Staring at the crumpled note in her opened fair palms, she placed it before the burning candles and fed it to the flames, watching the sides burn into ashes as her devious actions reflected before her own eyes.

She wasn't sure why Anna would want his Highness to meet her at the old Hollow tree, but if she plans on fleeing with his Highness during the event, then there was certainly no way she was going to let Anna succeed in her plans.
