"I think he got cuter," Elena muttered, her eyes filled with admiration as she fixed her gaze on the closed door. She couldn't help but smile as she slowly buttoned up her dress. Remembering how Killian's face went red made the smile on her face grow wide. She never thought she'd witness such an expression from him and it made her feel happy.
While Elena thought King Killian got cuter, she forgot that she also got bolder. The Elena of before would never have pulled such a bold stunt without fearing about losing her life.
Almost immediately, a soft knock was heard and as Elena ordered the person to enter, Irene carefully opened the door, poking her head inside as her eyes scanned the room.
"My Queen, i-it's time for us to head to the library," Irene whispered, her hand gripping the door tightly. She did not want to be too loud, afraid that she might annoy the King.
