"Did he hate kissing me so much?" Princess Ellen thought. Princess Ellen was not wrong to think this way. After all, the prince''s mood change the moments after he kissed her.

    Meanwhile, the prince panicked when he saw her not answering his question. "Did you eat that much?" He asked.

    "No, I did not eat any. I noticed something was wrong with it before I took the first bite," princess Ellen answered. She noticed the prince took a deep breath of relief hearing her answer.

    "Where is the maid?" Princess Ellen asked after the short pause.

    "Dead, I killed her," the prince replied honestly answering her question.

    Princess Ellen pressed her lips together. She was not surprised by his answer. One already informed her about her chances of dying if she did something wrong.

    "Did you find out who sent her?" Princess Ellen asked. She was sure that a commoner who not just try to hurt her.

    Prince Sebastian''s mind flashed to what he saw as he looked at the maid"s eyes earlier. The man who gave her the gold was a stranger. The prince has never met that man before. So he knew he was also only just working for someone else.

    This put a lot of questions in his head. Why would someone want to stop his sunshine from bearing children? He would have concluded that it had something to do with the throne but after what he learned from his mother yesterday he was scared that someone else apart from his mother was also aware of his redemption was tied to his wife.

    "I am not sure of who sent her, she does not even know the person," Prince Sebastian answered her question. Princess Ellen took a deep breath. If she had been in the prince''s position she would have used the maid as bait but the prince was different.

    She wanted to ask more about what he found out but she swallowed back her question afraid that he might misunderstand her.

    "I will take my leave," prince Ellen nodded her head.

    "Wait," the prince stopped her. He just got an idea. Princess Ellen who was about to leave stopped in her track and listen to him.

    "We should share the same chamber," the prince said. He just realized that he may have more chances of getting close to her if they stayed in the same chamber.

    "Your highness," princess Ellen was surprised by his suggestion. The prince hated sharing his space. Why would he want to share his chamber with her?

    "You only met me this morning because I had to deal with the maid this morning. So I am willing to share my personal space just to fulfill my promise to you," the prince said.

    Princess Ellen looked at the prince she could not understand why he was willing to accommodate her. Although she hated the idea of having to share his bed-chamber, she knew in her best interest she should agree to it.

    "Thank you for your help, your Highness," princess Ellen bowed her head. The prince was happy to hear her accept her offer.

    "Have you heard what happened in the Royal court yesterday?" Prince Sebastian asked.

    Princess Ellen shook her head. She did not know who to ask about it. Prince  Sebastian told her the outcome. Princess Ellen was surprised by the outcome.

    "Is Lady Catherine expected to serve as my maid?" Princess Ellen asked. To be honest she just wanted to scare them off her back.

    "Yes, her punishment should have been dead but since his Majesty decided to forgive her she naturally still needs to serve punishment," Prince Sebastian said.

    The princess was surprised to hear this she did not expect the king of Avalo to be such a just man.

    "Do not overthink things, the king only made that decision because he was bound by his words.  Moreover, he only asked Lady Catherine to be your maid so she can take revenge on you. After all, it is your fault that her husband will be put to death," Prince Sebastian replied.

    Princess Ellen nodded her head in understanding. The King is indeed cunning like she had expected. "But she could still not understand why the Queen took her side. She already knows that her relationship with the prince was bad.  In fact, princess Ellen heard that the Queen treated Julia better because he was the king''s favorite son.

    "You have to be careful, why she is here. Also, whoever send that maid may try to use her too since the maid failed prince Sebastian warned her.

    "I understand, do you want us to use lady Catherine as bait to catch who is after me?'' Princess Ellen suggested.

    " Can you do that?" Prince Sebastian asked. He did not want to put Ellen in a difficult situation.

    "Of course, all I have to do is pretend my guard is down and make sure she feels free. Once she has believed that I trust her she will definitely make a move," princess Ellen explains.

    She did not understand why but she felt safe with prince Sebastian. Prince Sebastian nodded his head.

    "How will this help us catch the person after you? Prince Sebastian asked. He deliberately refused to tell her the true intention of the maid. He was not sure if the Princess was willing to bear children for him yet. What if she allows herself to fall into the trap just so she does not give birth to his child.

    "It is simple, if someone managed to use Biel the first day she started working for me, then it means this person is paying close attention to what is happening around me. This also means the person is close to me. So when I act freely with Lady Catherine the person will definitely reach out," Princess Ellen explained.

    Hmm, the prince nodded his head as he picked up his robe from the bed and put on it. Hearing Ellen talk made him realize that his mother was right about the princess.

    "You have to treat her right. Having someone scheming and smart like her by your side is a blessing. If she becomes your enemy she might be your downfall just like I am to king Roderick," his mother''s voice played in his head.

    "Not just lady Catherine you have to be careful, whoever is behind all this may use someone else too and trap lady Catherine," the prince warned.

    Princess Ellen nodded her head, grateful that the prince looked out. She never expected her marriage to the curse prince to be this easy. She wondered if he was treating her right because she saved hid life at samor.
