Alexander's Consort- Camelia (End)

As Philips and Alexander came to their agreement, Alexander felt the princess suddenly land her curious eyes on him, as if to see the man was destined to spend her life with.

And sensing the fresh set of eyes fall on him, Alexander at first tried to make some small talk with her. "By the way, how did you manage to escape your room yesterday?" He inquired.

"I tricked a passing maid into opening my room's door by saying someone had mistakenly locked me inside. And I got into the party by simply saying I was the princess." Came the straight answer.

At that specific time, her mother, Queen Parthia, had been in utter shock seeing her daughter's state, and her mind in total chaos over the presumed consequences.

Thus she was quickly left to find Philips at the party, consequently forgetting to station guards at the girl's room, and inadvertently letting the very thing she feared most occur- Camelia escaping.
