The Choice

*Susannah's POV*

   I paced around the room aimlessly,my fingers almost twitching at this point.

 Kiara hadn't sent a letter yet,I still had no clue whether they arrived safely,if they were attacked,or if that father of hers refused to let them enter because of my son.

  I should have followed them,then I wouldn't be in so much worry.I tried to console myself that it had only been a few hours since they left–but that didn't work.

  "Lady Susannah?"a maid called behind me.

 "Yes?"I replied instantly,turning to her with hope. "Have I received any letter?"

  "No."she said sadly.

 "Oh,"I took a deep breath. "If its visitors you came to talk to me about,send them away."

  "But it's your friend Queen Silvia and–"

  "And who?"

  "The second Prince."

  My face stretched into a teary smile. "Send them in immediately."
