Something little

"This is the best tent in the camp. You might catch a cold if you sleep in another and I can not allow that," the prince lied. There were many nice tents available, he trusted that Jeffery will get something nice for her but he wanted her to share his bed.

Princess Ellen looked at the prince confused. She had gone outside of his tent and was sure she saw the tent set up for her was pretty good. 'Is he trying to lure me into his bed?' Princess Ellen asked herself but shook off the thought immediately. It was a known fact that the prince did not like sharing his space. It must be a huge sacrifice on his part.

Back at the royal palace of Avalo princess Ellen already learned that the prince hated sharing his space. So much that the maid only went in to clean or replace the water in his bathtub when he was outside. He hated attending balls and having family dinner with the rest of the royal family.
