The tense situation is over. Lydia is helping me treating Kairos and Raja. Steven has arrived.

"What happened?" He asks as soon as he walks inside our room. I look at Kairos and Raja. I also want to know what happened.

"It's the same man as before, princess." Raja answers as he looks at me. I widen my eyes, it's the mask man.

"Who?"

"The man with a mask." I look at Steven. He looks confused, it seems he doesn't know anything related to that mysterious troublemaker.

"I think we need to tighten the security." Raja suddenly speaks up.

"Why did he come here, Raja?" 

Raja shakes his head. "I don't know. I came to help Prince Kairos."

I move my head and look at Kairos. "So, what happened?"

Kairos sighs. "I don't know. I just went outside to refresh myself. But then I saw a shadow watching your room. I thought he was a guard, but he suddenly attacked me."

I'm so confused. Is it because I came here to come find him that the mask-man now is aware of me? I don't look like I can fight him alone though. What's going on actually?

"Alright, we can talk about this tomorrow. You all should have a rest." 

I nod. What Steven said is true. We should rest now, it's going to be a long day tomorrow.

"Anya, how are you feeling?"

"Better than ever." Princess Anya smiles at me as she rubs her belly.

This morning, I decided to come and see Princess Anya. We're going to have breakfast together with Steven. Kairos will also come, but that poor man won't eat with us. He will just stand up with Lydia and Raja as he watches us eat. Haha, poor him.

"Your water." I give Princess Anya her cup. 

"Thank you." She says as she takes the cup and drink the water little by little. 

The door suddenly opens, showing Steven, Kairos and Lydia coming from outside.

"Good morning, Anya!" Steven holds Anya's shoulder. Princess Anya looks up to Steven and smiles.

"Good morning."

"How are you feeling?"

"Me and the baby are doing well." Princess Anya giggles. Her mood today makes me happy. Steven said she's become more cheerful than usual thanks to me. I'm so happy to hear that.

"Anya, let me introduce you to my friend as well as my guard." I walk to Kairos. Anya stands up as she looks at the back. 

A sudden sound of a glass breaking makes me flinch in shock. All eyes are on Princess Anya now.

"Oh, I'm sorry. My hand suddenly slipped." Anya smiles in guilt. 

I shake my head and walk to her. "No problem, let's call the maid to clean it up."
