After their dinner, Penelope said goodbye to the royal family and returned to her room. Penelope is still treating them formally similar to how she treats King Galia and Prince Astria in her kingdom. For some reason, she cannot treat them warmly. Aside from Prince Lucien, all of them are still strangers to Penelope although they are her relatives too.
Especially King Lucas.
The king is giving her a weird feeling. It is not something that her instincts can call as dangerous. But Penelope can see that King Lucas has a lot of things to say but he is just holding it back. Penelope wants to tell him not to hesitate around her. But the most problematic part is her reluctance in approaching the king first.
