It was nighttime. Blair was facing the mirror, while Helen was standing behind her with a brush that was working through the princess's golden brown hair.
"The mark still hasn't gone, your highness?" Helen asked, perplexed as to seeing the huge marks, still fresh on her highness's neck.
"Yeah" Blair admitted with a sigh. When Helen had gone to meet Lady Agnes, the maid had reported back to her that the woman was out of their kingdom.
In addition, she was arriving, a week later.
Helen's lips parted and a sigh escaped, she kept her mouth shut as she applied rose essential oils to Blair's skin. Once she was done with her course, she exited the room at the princess's order since there was nothing left to do.
Blair yawned and stretched lazily, feeling her eyelids getting heavy. She walked to the bed to get some comfort. She hoped that this night would pass well.
She didn't like having nightmares.
