Chapter 245: Christie Shadowmere with a request.
Mauve’s lips twisted into a small shy smile. The guilt escaped in the form of red on her healthy cheeks that she scrambled to cover.
The maids that were delighted to share in this new secret could hardly contain their shock. The scandalous rumored courtship between Lady Mauve Rosewood and divorced Prince Galen Maximus had taken an interesting turn. A secret kiss!!!
This was the kind of news that had fathers pulling out swords and innocent priests awoken in the middle of the night to oversee rushed weddings.
"How did you even find out about this? Do you have spies watching me?"
"Do not let a man into your private chambers if you do not want to become a subject of gossip. Also, do not kiss him by the window. This royal castle is monitored everywhere...." Sigrid laughed at her shy companion who appeared ready to enter the ground and forever be buried.
"Mama is going to kill me." Mauve cried out dramatically, throwing her upper body onto the table. "Oh-oh-oh.....on my grave stone, the words a kiss was her downfall will be inscribed."
’"I don’t think so, you are being a tad bit too dramatic." Sigrid said.
"Oh..." Mauve sat up groaning in the process. "You are right, that is too kind. It will probably be something that serves as a warning to the girls younger than me, "here lies the fool, she brought shame on the Rosewood’s with her mouth."
Sigrid swatted an insect with a fan. The unlucky insect fell to the table and it was cleaned up by Bella.
