Chapter 18

His lips drew soft lines as he smiled and his warm gaze met her eyes.

For the first time in her life, Prim felt like she was facing a bright sun.

“I think… I’m going to be blind,” 1

Prim muttered like an enchanted person because she was too fascinated by him

“You are so beautiful, Your Highness.”

“Just stop talking.”

“Ha, but your beauty is too much even my words cannot describe it, Your Highness.”

She was being too honest and there is no lie in her eyes.

He gave her a reassuring smile to her.

“Do you like my face that much?”

Prim nodded vigorously.

‘

This can be used as a lie to the Royal family. She felt anxiety crept in.

“I heard that your drawing style is kind of unique.”

Dahps smirks as he laughs.

But she can’t panic here, she will be accused as lying to the royal about that night if she ever panicked.

“Yes, Your Highness. I felt that I am improving and it’s all thanks to Elena.”

Prim said calmly.

“I didn’t know that Elena was that good. I would love to join both of you.”

“I’m sorry, but I’ve been doing something else lately, Your Highness. Elena’s art class with me has been put on hold for a while.”

“What is your job actually?”

“Nowadays, I’m studying about colours.”

“Ohh, ‘Colours’ “

Daphs tone was sarcastic. It was obvious what his question was about. Prim knew his intention from the beginning. 1

‘Then, I will do the same to you.’

Prim smiled genuinely towards the Prince.

“I heard that you are studying too, Your Highness.”

“Studying what?”

“I heard that you are so good in archery.”

Daphs cracked up as he laughed hard.

“And I’d like to see your skills. How great are you in Archery.”

Prim recalled him aiming a bow at the Reynsis in the woods. Daphs and her eyes were fierce as soon as their eyes met. 1

“Lady Elena, we need to talk for a minute.”

Daphs tried to run away after he broke the flow. Elena felt frightened as she stepped off. 1

“Umm, well..”

Elena could not speak easily.

Why is she so timid?

Elena was afraid of the prince who wanted to have a special relationship with her, and resent herself for not being able to express her opinion properly. +

“Your Highness, if it’s okay with you. Please excuse us for awhile.”

Prim’s reply made Elena look at her as she grasped her sweating hand.
