The king summoned Sally two days later.
Sally’s heart was in her throat when she got words that she was being summoned by the king. It’s the first time, she’ll be standing before him in that way, and as she stood in front of his door, her legs were practically shaking.
She knocked and his deep voice ordered her in.
She entered inside the empty room, but the sound coming from the inner bedroom indicated that he must be in there. She squeezed her hands together nervously as she waited for him.
The door opened and the king came out of the inner room, she bowed her head to him. “You summoned me, Your highness.”
He walked towards her and stood in front of her. He said nothing but his eyes scrutinized her thoroughly.
Those eyes that revealed nothing almost made her squirm. She kept her head lowered and waited agitatedly.
“You have been Danika’s personal maid for a long time, right?” he groaned finally.
“Y-Yes, My king.”
