The next day Ellen regain her consciousness. It was already late in the afternoon and her maids took turns taking care of her because she went down with fever late night.
The two maid stood beside her bed, they were happy to see that their princess was awake. These are the maids that followed her from Bozoa. Last night they both felt scared when they saw the mark on Ellen's neck.
Ellen looked at the maid and at first she could not understand why they were looking at her like that, but slowly she remembered what happened last night.
She subconsciously touch her neck which felt sore.
"Your highness, are you okay?" One of the maid asked.
Ellen nodded her head, she hated the look on their faces. She hated that pity look. She is a princess made to be admired, not pitied.
"It was the prince that did it to you right?" one of the maids asked in a low voice. Although it was a question but it seems the maid already knew the answer.
