SHE IS A WITCH

JASMINE'S POV

What I had seen could have killed me. My head was on a plate; worst of all, they knew I had seen them together.

I hurried out of the room and attempted to go on my way. 

"Wait!" A masculine voice called when I had barely left the queen's bedroom. 

I stopped short. 

My heart was beating so fast. It was like I would have a heart attack. 

I slowly turned around and saw the king walk up to me. 

I swallowed heavily; my entire body was reverting in fear.

Then I heard his footsteps stop behind me. 

"Turn around," he instructed. 

I did as he said and came face to face with him. 

I heard a soft gasp from him, and he instinctively stepped away from me.

He seemed dumbstruck, and then he recovered. 

"What's your name?" He asked me. 

"Jasmine," I said quietly, and then I curtsied. "Your majesty." 

He just looked me over and said, "Who are your parents, and how long have you lived here?"
