Fearing the Prince

Madame Sand’s words bothered me although I should have known that there was no way that the princes would have only one lover. This place that I was sitting in was practically their harem and I had no idea why a place like this still exists in this modern world; however, things worked very differently here from what I was used to.

The image of Prince Leonard with another woman flashed through my mind and suddenly there was a sickening feeling deep in my core. I winced as if the thought of it brought pain to my mind as my chest tightened slightly.

What am I even thinking?

I had no idea how long I was swallowed up in my troublesome thoughts until I heard a firm knock on my door. This time, it had to be Prince Leonard. I jumped out of my seat as my heart began to race wildly in my chest.

“Yes?” I called out as I quickly made my way to the door.
