When Sigrid finally woke up, it was 2:00 p.m. in the afternoon. She had slept for so long that she missed lunch and nobody had woken her up. She yawned and sat up slowly, stretching her arms.
"Your highness, you are awake." Lanai's voice came from behind her.
Sigrid sensed the people in the room before she saw them. Her maids were standing behind, Alistair was perched on the window. Veylin was behind the curtain, hiding in the shadow.
"We will bring your lunch straight away unless there is something you need to do first." Lanai said.
Bella came and wiped Sigrid's face with a warm towel. Another maid started massaging her shoulders. Mrs. Elsworth switched on the television and urged someone to bring some drinking water and calming tea. Everyone was doing something to please her or make her comfortable.
Mauve and Christie walked into the room, having received a text from Lanai, informing her that the crown princess was awake.
