"I saw him once, I suggest you open that letter and stop overthinking."
Elizabeth glanced at him lazily, "I don't cherish it."
"What if they asked you to marry him?"
Rof tested her.
Elizabeth jerked back, getting back to her room quickly, she closed the door. Her room was damp and cold now.
Lighting up the candles, she dragged back the chair, "can they force me to do it?"
"Yes, you are the princess's daughter!"
She frizzed for a moment, her hand grew numb.
"Fuck!"
Rof shrugged.
"Why?"
Tears beaded in her eyes, the princess was killed, it meant her mother was murdered. Did her father know? Who killed her?
With her shaky hand, she opened the seal but took a deep breath before beginning to read it.
"Let me read it for you."
Elizabeth keenly accepted that favor and the Alux began to read the letter.
