the letter

"I hope so too, Victor. Would you like to take a walk in the garden with me?" she asked, blinking her eyes.

"Oh, I would have loved it too. But it's been late. I have to go and meet his majesty, princess Elena. He had called me here. I was here just to wish good afternoon to both you. I should get going now." he replied with an urgent face.

Elena knew it was an excuse. She had seen his father giving him rest for today. Her fists clenched under her dress, but she maintained her cute smile. It's not like exposing him would do anything well.

"Alright then, see you later," she replied with a sweet smile.

Victor smiled as he walked out, without looking back. If he had looked back, he would have seen his ugly and evil expressions.

He took a sigh of relief once he was out. The sweet smile of princess Elena always looked creepy to him. He did not feel comfortable around her.
