I got down from the carriage as soon as I got home. My maids followed me. I ignored everyone's greetings and went to my room.
The guards I placed on the door of tents must have attracted my aunt to the tent. They knew at once I was inside with Lord Azriel. If only I knew, I would have gone missing without anyone knowing.
But how can I do that? They were all around me lies flies following a dead body to the grave. Father would punish them if he finds out that I was alone.
"I will have a bath," I told them. Queen Ivy went too far with this. She even slapped Azriel. Any mother in her place will do that but she was Queen. I expected her to hear the story first.
Poor Azriel, I wondered if he would talk to me again. He was angry and his eyes were red. They changed so quickly that I got scared that he might make a stupid move.
