After leaving his father's office, William made his way toward the library, walking down the familiar hallways. Maids and other staff members bowed respectfully as he passed by, acknowledging the young prince with smiles.
"Woof!"
Suddenly, he heard the familiar bark of Pansy, his mischievous dog. He quickly hid behind a table, knowing all too well how relentless she could be. Pansy bounded into the hallway, sniffing around intently. Despite his attempt to stay quiet, Pansy zeroed in on him, tail wagging with excitement. She rounded the table and leapt onto him, catching him in her paws.
"I still can't beat you," William sighed, laughing as Pansy licked him with joyful enthusiasm.
