The princess with the unusual Heartbeat

I'm so sorry to hear about your predicament, 'Your Highness'. Said Prince Lancelot. At such a young age, you went through quite a lot of hassles. I wish I could share half of the pain you bear on your shoulders…. Anastasia smiled. It's alright, 'Your Highness'…. She's thinking. Come to think of it….

My aunt did say, if I learn to fall in love with a man, then I will be set free from my curse….. How come I'm not free yet even after confessing my feelings to Lex? Could this mean, he doesn't love me just as much as I love him? I don't understand… or perhaps, that old hag is trying to play a fast one on me. Don't worry, 'My lady'. I will definitely find a way to cure you of your illness. He speaks confidently as princess Anastasia nodded with a smile.

Meanwhile, princess Gwen was about entering her chambers as she sees Prince Lex making an entrance from the opposite direction. She approaches him. Greetings, 'your Highness'… she politely bows. Greetings, 'My lady'. He replied. Have you perhaps seen Prince Lancelot lately? I've gone to his chambers to look for him but can't find him. I thought perhaps he's in your company….. Haven't seen him since day break, 'My lady'. Perhaps, you should ask his guards about his whereabout….. She signs dejectedly. I guess you're right. She walks away. Hmmm…. I wonder where he could be? Anastasia is also not in her chambers. They both seem too close to be just friends. I will have to keep my eyes on her. She can't possibly be looking at other men when she's with me. What do I have to do to make her realize she's mine alone? He thought for a while?
