Alliance. (Heavily editing)

On the run

Please tell me what you think! the bathing part in this chapter was inspired by elide and lorcan..if anyone knows what i am talking about.😏😉
Ps. I am constantly editing the previous chapters because I am writing too fast..so yeah..

Here it starts:

I stepped inside the room, who's interior was entirely made up of wood, there was a bed in the corner and a rug on the floor, small candles were lit and placed on the dresser along with flowers, it felt cozy and had a small separated bathing area on the corner.

"You sleep on the bed and I on the floor " king Cale bluntly said to me.

"What if someone comes in?" I asked.

"No one will, I have a key " he said.

I reluctantly took off my cloak. I was still in that bloody night gown! and it raked terribly, king Cale noting my expression said,

"You can bathe in here "

"I don't have any clean clothes " I replied.

" I could go outside and look for them and some food if you want and when I come back, I'll place the clean clothes on the bed " He said.

"What if you can't find any? ".

"Then you can wash your old clothes and sleep without them ".

Did he lost his wits somewhere in the forest?

"With you in here!?" I blurted out.

He rolled his eyes. Was I dreaming or was this reality?Did he just ro—

"I won't come back without them, princess, Is that of enough assurance to you?"

"Fine" I sighed.

"Fine" He echoed and left the room.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It took two hours to clean myself thoroughly. I scrubbed and scrubbed trying to get all the dirt off my body, when I was done I wrapped the towel around myself and walked to my bed, surely the clothes were placed on it. It wasn't a dress rather a tunic and pants. I couldn't remember the last time I wore clothes like these..I quickly dropped my towel and changed into them just as I was done there was a gentle knock on the door,

"Come in" I called.

It was king Cale with food! I almost sagged in relief. I was starving, we hadn't eaten for two days and gods help me I thought I would faint if I didn't eat . He placed the food on the rug and sat down. I immediately dropped to my knees and started devouring the stew and  bread while sighing dramatically.

"Do you always do that?" He asked.

"Do what?" I mumbled with my mouth full of food. He would never had guessed that I was a princess or even a lady given how I acted.

"Find such contentment in food?" he asked with amusement in his voice.

" Well of course, Is there a reason not to?" I asked.

Never ever take food for granted..

He just shook his head in disbelief.
