Sylvia dreaded as the day had come to an end, and the dusk veiled the skies. She decided not to leave this maid's quarters and give a chance for Maximus to notice her somewhere. She doesn't want to go to his room tonight and let him take the one thing that she's securing for the person she's going to marry.
Many maids sleep with Princes, Generals, soldiers, guards, and even with the King as they were hoping to secure a safe place in the palace. But Sylvia doesn't need that, all she wanted is an escape which is never going to happen if she sleeps with him.
She wants her first time with someone she loves and Maximus is someone she hates with all her heart. When she was sitting on the corner of her bed and pondering about how to escape, one of the other maids called her.
"Your majesty wanted to see you,"
"Who?"
"The crown prince's wife,"
"I will go right now," Sylvia said, not having the courage to walk out of this place.
