She was dismissed. She was dismissed as if she was a fool that was boring his majesty and making her husband humiliated. It had reminded her of the time she had accompanied Damien. He had always excused himself when he went to meet other nobles while she sat on the table like a trophy wife.
She had thought she was doing better. She had learnt her ways but for the king, it did not seem to be enough. Her throat burnt with unsaid words as she witnessed how hazel was next to offer her greetings. With her smile and words she had charmed his majesty. The dark and cold man offered her a smile that could win hearts. Even Eve found her looking at him for more than required. Suddenly, his eyes turned to her and he gave her a meaningful smile. A smile that crept the coldness in her again.
The creaking sound of the chair broke the trance and she turned her head at once. Damien was looking at her with a sigh. She messed up badly.
