I whispered a final reassuring word to myself.
With resolve, I pushed open the massive doors of the meeting room.
Their piercing gazes, a mixture of curiosity, disdain, and judgment, fixated on me. In that moment, I was their leader, and they were all bound to me.
Their eyes tracked my every move, as if I were the central figure in a grand performance.

"But we have received intel that-"
"I said you shall not meet with them. Any further attempt will result in punishment."
"Punishment?" I questioned.
"Meeting adjourned!" She declared, dismissing my protests. "Exit the premises!"
I ceased my objections and silently left the room, aware of the multitude of eyes upon me, all likely pondering a single question: "Will she defy the Royals?"
