(Tom's PoV)
Upon entering the village, Jane was shown a different place from us while Sanjaya and I were directed to a place a bit further away from her. We complained to them, saying that we couldn't stay too far away from her since we needed to assure her safety.
Guess what they said?
The place they were taking her was a place especially made for the Princess and Princess' Consort a.k.a. her husband. So, unless it was her husband-to-be or her husband, no man could live in the same vicinity as her.
What about lying to them, saying that I am her husband? There's no way I would use Sanjaya's name as her husband, of course.
No, it wouldn't do either. What if they asked for a marriage certificate? We didn't have one. I was afraid it would only bring trouble for us if we insisted on staying in the same building as her.
