Salome slowly stepped towards the bedside table were she'd earlier seen Aurora drop the drug.
However, She had seen Aurora eating with the royal family and she knew this was the perfect time to snitch in.
She picked it up and hid it into her dress.
" I'm sure only a tip of this will make I and Xander's love stronger again. Can't wait to be in his arms " She smiled.
The door suddenly opened and Aurora walked in out of the blue.
" Hey, bitch!" She spat.
" Oh my goodness, Princess Aurora!" Salome gasped, her heart racing to cloud 9.
" Where are you taking my drugs to?" She asked, stepping in carefully.
" Oh...Um..." She swallowed in hardly. She immediately left hold of it and it fell off her hands.
Aurora slowly inhaled it and she fell off her feet to meet the ground.
Salome hand raised to her lips to prevent herself from screaming.
" Oh geez. I better run!" She said and leaped out of the room hurriedly.
Few moment later, Xander angrily barged into the room with his bleeding leg.
" There's a lot we haven't figured out about Ian, Aurora" He said and suddenly halted, only to find Aurora on the floor.
She slowly sat up, holding her throbbing head.
She immediately looked at xander and found him more attractive than usual. A creepy smile left her lips.
" Oh geez, Xander. How can you suddenly be this pretty?" She smiled, standing up on her feet quickly.
Xander pulled a face at her.
" Did you take a dose of senselessness today?." He spat.
" I lost my brain the moment I saw you, Xander. You are the most prettiest man in the world!!" She screamed and tried to hug him but he pushed her away.
She fell back on the bed and pouted.
" Oh, You want us to go to the bed part. How do you want it, Rough or Hard?" She smirked and at that moment, Xander lost it.

" Be fast with the laundries Girls!!" Queen Erica instructed the younger maids.
Hani was trying to keep up with the load of work, aside being the youngest in their midst.
She wiped her head and picked up her laundry basket and was about walking off when salome pushed her aside.
She mistook her steps and fell, along with the cloth with her.
" Hani!!"" Queen Erica yelled and she got up on her feet quickly. " Return the clothes to the tap and start all over again for another three hours"
" But..."
" I don't want to hear a single excuse." She said and hani sighed, glaring at Salome who was smiling sheepishly.
She picked her bucket and returned to the tap. Vivian who was also watching finally spoke up.
" Salome!" She called and she raised her head.
" Pick the rest of the laundry from Hani's basket and wash them times four of the usual time"
" WHAT!"
" Do as I say, Quickly" She said.
" Queen Erica?" Salome pouted.
" I have no saying in this. She's the head mistress of you all so do as she says" Queen Erica spat.
Salome wanted to cry as her throat ran dry. She picked up the rest of the cloth and walked to a secluded place angrily.

Hani was shivering as she returned back to the camp after a long day. She reached her door and realised it was locked from the inside.
" Salome?" She called. She started knocking but there was no reply from indoor.
" Salome!!" She cried out. The door finally opened and Salome was standing by the door.
" There's no space. Go look for somewhere else to stay"
" B..but..."
" I said Go!. You left me last night to stay at the balcony so i see no reason why you'd be back here with your trash" She hissed and slammed the door really hard.
Hani lips formed a pout quickly.
" Please!!" She knocked hard. " Open the door please, I'm very cold!!. I'm wearing night dress" She cried.
She looked around and saw that it was really dark and she got really scared. She started walking away, and after walking a few steps, she started running quickly.
She returned back to the field and didn't see Ian there and tears started to fill her eyes.

Ian suddenly opened his eyes and looked openly around his large bedroom. He sat up and was still feeling that cold chills around his feet and hands.
He got down the bed and took up his robe along, leaving the room. He stepped outside and met Hani talking to one of the guards there and he quickly approached them.
" What's happening here?" He asked.
" Ian. This little girl is seeking for you" The guard said.
Ian looked at hani.
" What are you doing here at the middle of the night?. I thought you should be asleep"
" My roommates chased me. I..I..can't find Vivian in this darkness. I'm left alone" She said desperately.
" Your roommates chased you?" He asked with creased brows and she nodded.
He picked her hands and pulled her towards the girl's camp, on getting there, the door was locked from the outside.
" It seems she has left with the keys" She said. Ian looked at her and saw she was still shivering.
" You're cold." He said. He took off his robe and wore it around her shoulders properly before moving to the field.
They found a place close to the pathway light and laid together on the floor.
" Do you still feel cold?" He asked carefully.
" Um...A little....bit" She said, biting her lower lip.
He moved closer and wrapped his arms around her lovely figure before staring at her beautiful eyes.
" Still cold?" He mumbled. She tried to adjust towards him and their lips suddenly poked softly.
" Oh geez. I'm sorry" She said nervously but he didn't care anyways.
He rubbed her lips with his thumb gently and hani couldn't hear anything else than her deep, fast heart beat.
She didn't know what he was trying to do but she could feel the heat.
They kept staring at eachother's eyes and the heat got more intense by each minute.
His thumb abruptly stopped moving on her lips and now his face was leaning into her carefully.
