Clive dragged Emilia into the small balcony on the off side of the Royal Hall, away from secluded eyes before he proceeded to verbally attack her, "No wonder you refused to get ready in the hotel suite, Princess Emilia! Why are you dressed like a sl*t? Are you trying to smear the name of the Royal family of the Valleys?"

Emilia struggled to pull her hand out of his grasp but it was to no avail as he pulled her close and threatened," Do you think that you can grasp the attention of Noel Bing by wearing these clothes and making eyes at him? Do you really think that you can do that? Have you seen the man's previous girlfriends? Do you really think he would like a short and stumpy teenage girl like you?"
Emilia stilled and stared at Clive as if he had slapped her. Taking a deep breath, she composed herself and warned," I am dressing only for myself and no one else. So I do not need to listen to whatever nonsense you have to say..."
