"Bella, can I come in?" Scarlett opened the door to the Princess room to peek in. She could hear Bella weeping from the hallway.
"Yyyy... yes." She tried to dry her eyes as she sat up.
"I'm sorry if I got you into trouble. I brought you some food. I thought you might be hungry," Scarlett said as she sat the tray on the bedside table.
"It's not your fault, Scarlett. The king saw Jett and I together in the king's hall. I guess I just need to come to terms that this is my life now. I have to accept that I may just end up loveless and alone. Scarlett, I care for him, you know. I don't know why, but I feel connected to Jett. I know we just met, but I've had a crush on him for years. Now I know him he's so much more than I could have ever imagined."
