{A FEW minutes after Neoma left the room…}
WHEN Nero woke up when he smelled Neoma's scent. He opened and eyes and realized that he was being carried by Stephanie who was running as fast as she could. He looked around and found out that they were already outside the palace. To be precise, they were in the garden. "Where's Neoma?" he asked in a weak voice. "Stephanie, where's my sister?"
Stephanie sobbed before she answered his question. "The princess sacrificed herself to give us time to escape, Your Royal Highness," she said. "Her Royal Highness posed as you and lured the enemies away."
He gasped in surprise.
That was when he realized that he could clearly smell Neoma because he was now wearing her nightgown. There were also long strands of Neoma's hair on the dress. Did his precious sister cut her hair and wore his pajama so the assassins would mistake her for him?!
He hated to admit this but it was a good plan.
