That sunset ended quickly for Elizabeth after the unexpected dialogue with crown prince Akila. Confused and stuck in her thoughts, she was thinking very specific things now.

- Why did Tao's brother suggest such a thing to me? Was it a coincidence that this happened when we got into a fight? Would Tao care at all if he found out? I'm ashamed to eat in front of people!

Four important concerns. This may be her last hope to understand Tao's feelings. The plan was simple but effective. It would make Tao jealous. His older brother is the next holder of the crown. Tao will probably feel that he is loosing something valuable if he sees her next to his brother.

The night passed slowly and painfully. As she lay for hours without a trace of sleep. Accompanied by the ringing of the clock and the unbearable discomfort she felt in her stomach. Probably the concern he had about whether she would eat was resolved. With her stomach in this state and with few hours of sleep, she would not eat anything.

As the clock continued to tick-tock, it began to sound like a lullaby in her ears. After so many hours of insomnia, now her eyes were slowly getting heavier. In seconds the Morpheus* had pulled Elizabeth into a deep sleep...

Z z z...

- ̗̀ the next morning ̖́-

Her eyes widened when a dazzling light fell on her like lightning. The pupils shrank in front of the view of the morning sun. The maid opened the other curtains in the room and approached bed . "Good morning my lady. I was informed that you will have breakfast with Prince Akila today. Your bath is ready." She calmly uncovered the young lady and led her to the bath.

When the bathroom door opened the morning chills were quickly replaced by a velvety feeling of warmth. The whole room smelled of lavender, while the spectacle of the full bathtub with the purple bubbles was very attractive. The maid gently grabbed her lady's robe from the shoulders and removed it.

Elizabeth entered the bathtub and quickly felt her body shudder from the sudden warmth of the water. The truth is that she was quite concerned about sleep. She did not want to go to the prince's mansion and fall asleep. This morning bath was exactly what she needed, a little push to start the day more optimistically.
