This may be the end of duty for the royal guards but not for Zoe.
The last guard has already closed the door. And it was only her, Raigon and Azra, and the sleeping patient.
Zoe didn't stand up even after the others have left.
She remained in her kneeling position, as a citizen subject to the ruling authority.
'No matter what our past is, I must pay the respect that is due him.'
Her eyes gazed down on the concrete floor as she made a resolution.
It didn't sink in yet a while ago that the savior of her life is actually a Crown Prince in a hidden kingdom.
Now that it is over, the realization finally dawned on her.
She bit her lips as different emotions filled her heart all at the same time. She felt thrilled and elated in meeting a real live walking and talking Prince.
'I thought that they are just fairy tales. But here you are, standing before my very eyes!'
She gaze at him from head to foot.
