One of the maids who was passing watched behind the door as the princess struggled, trying to catch her breath. After watching for some time, the maid walked out of the place and made her way to the queen dowager's room.
Kitanna wheezed in pain, the rain was still heavy outside the palace. This made it difficult for anyone to even hear her or come to her rescue. Kitanna was almost on the ground when she felt a sturdy hand hold her waist firmly.
