Envy

Eltanin was already feeling pretty embarrassed. Princess Eri was openly saying that he looked more handsome than before. There were wolves in his kingdoms, and the walls had ears. He didn't want people to talk behind his back that he was flirting with the princess. So, he said, "I will be very busy, but I am going to assign you a maid who will take you through the gardens." 

Princess Eri was shocked. "A maid?" she murmured. "Are you trying to demean my position, King Eltanin?" 

Eltanin gulped. "No. If you like I can send a noble with you or the man who is in charge of the orchards." 

Princess Eri took a step closer and, in a husky voice said, "I would rather like you to show it to me."
