Lady Saira stood up wiping her tears and feeling helpless in front of the King who had ordered her something she didn't want to do. She cursed herself for coming here instead of just staying by Prince's side and waiting for the Great Lady to return. If she had not come here to beg the King, he would not have ordered her something like this but…she just couldn't stay idle doing nothing to free the prince she vowed to take care of.
She reached the grand palace where Lady Tyra was waiting for her for so long.
"What took you so long? Did you manage to meet the king?" Lady Tyra asked.
With her head lowered and eyes still watery, she nodded.
"What did His Majesty say?"
Lady Saira raised her head up to look at Lady Tyra but even before a single word could come out, the tears made their way out nonstop, making her unable to say a word.
It worried Lady Tyra, "What happened, Saira?"
"I am sorry, Lady Tyra," she said in her sobbing voice.
