"Come with me," Kiara ordered Alexander as she walked by him.
She later had to thank Henry for his role in getting her to be with Alexander. Kiara missed talking to Alexander and had little time to convince him to stay in the palace with her. She couldn't have him out of her sight to be around these outsiders and get hurt.
Alexander reluctantly followed Kiara. He had received an order from Richard to entertain the princess and now she was calling upon him. His only saving grace was her having to come back to her family soon.
"Do you think I am a monster for using Henry like that? Father is either going to yell at him or ignore him later," Kiara said, knowing this matter wasn't done yet. "What a pity for the precious crown prince."
"Yes," Alexander replied. It was a nasty move and those who saw that truth would not dare speak up.
