Katia's Pov:
Gosh! The palace was so beautiful and I couldn't stop looking around as Hank took me to my room.
We had to go through a long way before getting to our destination which he referred to as my room.
He opened the door and walked in while I followed him behind..
A "wow" escaped my lips as I met with the beautiful room. Wow! It was dazzlingD ooo go.
A big comfy bed, a big wardrobe, a make up table, shoe shelf...everything! It was unbelievable!
"I had this room made for Tamzin" Hank said and I took my gaze to him.
"That was before i knew what unfortunately happened and…well you can have it,it's all yours"
He avoided my gaze but you could hear the pain in his way of talking and I was speechless. I knew I had to say something but at that moment I was blank…
"Everything you need should be here already - clothes, shoes - name them. And just in case there's any other thing you need, don't hesitate to let me know. Or send a maid to get it, rather."
"For now, we're having a party just like you've heard from my mum. It's my parents anniversary. So, pick something nice from the closet and get ready. I'll send someone to come get you when its time" he explained without looking at me then he turned briskly
"Any questions?" He turned and looked at me.
"No; I don't think so. Thanks" I replied and he nods
"A meal will be brought to you shortly. And when you're done eating, just try to get ready for the party, okay?"
"Okay"
And he left afterwards.
I sighed and just got lost in my thoughts for a moment feeling empty.
I went to the wardrobe to have a look.
Wow! This looks just like a fashion wardrobe. There were so many, pretty and classic
Hm. What will I wear to the party?
Without thinking much I brought out a long red gown
It was so beautiful and I loved every shade of red
I was about trying it on when the door opened and I turned to see three maids walking in - holding trays of food
Oh!
I held the dress to my chest and watched them as they quietly placed the trays on the table
They were all dressed in identical uniforms- a short pretty gown and pair of flat shoes. They looked so pretty.
"Good evening" they greeted with a bow, making me astonished.
Oh, please! I'm seriously not used to this.
"Um...good evening" I replied a little nervous
"We were sent by the prince to get these to you. Please, let us know if you need any other thing..." One of the maids said politely.
"Oh, please; you don't have to worry about that. I'll be fine with just this" I replied and they bowed and left the room..
Two of them left, but the third stopped at the door and looked back at me.
I watched her curiously and she walked towards me and whispered, her eyes flashing.
"Don't trust anyone. They might all seem nice to you, but trust no one. Not even the prince" before I had time to reply she held herself back like she was scared of something
"I'm sorry I over stepped my boundaries, pay me no attention " then she rushed out.
Wait…What???
