The Woman in His Heart

Eve could feel the unwelcome environment in the manor. Though the people were talking to her politely, they still appeared distant, deliberately avoiding her.

For the whole day, she chose to stay in her room. Fortunately, Silvester was there to accompany her.

"Princess! Princess! Are you sad?" Silvester flew toward her.

Eve smiled and stroked the parrot's head.

"No, Sylvester. I'm still trying to adjust to this new home."

"Should I call Crazy Master?" Silvester asked her.

But Eve shook her head. "It's already late. Your master must be resting now."

Eve and Silvester fell silent the moment they heard the peal of laughter outside the manor. It looked like the knights were having fun.

Eve approached her window and glanced down to take a peek at them. Some knights were gathered on the balcony, talking and drinking.
