“Thanks” She replied with a smile.
“Alright I need to go now see you around Theo” She said and walked out of the garden.
Suddenly someone grabbed her by the arm and pinned her on the wall.
She looked up and ached a brow as she saw it was Jackson.
“What’s wrong now?” Angela asked.
“I saw you two discussing and laughing, he even touched. What were you two discussing?” He asked frowning deeply.
“Huh? What? He was just teaching me how to do archery” Angela said.
“I can teach you too. You should have asked me” He said.
“Wait. I’m I dreaming of you’re jealous? Wow can’t believe the almighty Jackson Peterson is jealous. Well just so you know remember our agreement no love included” She said and pushed him away then walked away…
He stared at her walking away and sighed…
*What’s happening to me? It’s just been some hours she’s here and look, I’m already,,,,,,,already,,,,,,falling for her* He thought
Angela walked in her room in anger and slammed the door shut. She ran her hands through her hair and breath out loudly in order to calm down her nerves.
*I just hate it when someone try to control my life, it reminds me a lot of the brothel where they forced me to do things without my consent* She thought.
She smiled and chuckled.
*But it’s also kind of cute seeing him jealous. It made me feel some how, but I like it* She thought
*I just hope he doesn’t fall for me. I don’t deserve his love, I feel too dirty…Being touched by so much men makes me feel dirty, I don’t deserve his love. Please let him not love me* She thought sadly.
She sat down on her bed and laid down on it as she cried silently. All the anger, pain she went through began coming up in her.
She cried till she eventually drifted off to sleep…

“Do you know where Angela is?” Jackson asked a maid passing by.
“Yes sir, I saw her walk up to her room and she hasn’t come out of her room since then” The maid said and bowed before walking away.
Jackson walked up to her room and knocked.
“Angela, I know you’re in there. Please open up” He said but got no response.
“If you don’t open, I’m coming in” He continued but still nothing.
He turned the door knob then opened the door before walking. He was surprised to see her sleeping on the bed.
He walked up to the bed and sat down on a seat beside her. He smiled as he watched her sleeping peacefully.
Her long hair were covering part of her face and her lips were partly opened as she breathed silently…She let out a cute snore which made Jackson chuckle.
He brought his hands to her face and removed the strand of hair on her face.
“Just like your name, you look like an angel” He said in whisper.
He leaned forward towards her and then pressed his lips on hers with his eyes closed.
He pulled away and placed his hand on his chest…
*What is this feeling, my heart is beating at an abnormal rate* He thought as he watched her sleeping…
He pecked her lips again and stood up then walked to the door. He turned again and looked back at her…
“How is it possible that you seduce without even trying?” He said and closed the door as he walked to his room…
Nina was strolling along the hallway of the castle when she noticed a door was slightly opened.
Out of curiosity she opened the door and walked in.
“Someone’s room. I better get out of here” She thought and turned to leave but bumped into someone.
She almost fell but luckily the person caught her by the waist.
She looked up at the person and her eyes almost popped out of it’s socket as she saw it was Theodore.
“Good evening prince Theodore” She said.
“Thanks, what are you doing in my room” He asked still not letting her go…
“Um I was just curious to see what was in here. You know, it’s my first day here and I’m curious to know what’s in each and every door of the castle” She said staring at his face.
“Okay, just make sure you knock before entering” He said and release her then walked further into his room.
Nina stared at him walking away and slowly walked out of his room.
Immediately she walked out of the room, she jumped up and down as she began dancing her “victory dance”
“Yes, I talked to Theodore. Yes!!” She said as she danced.

** Next Morning **
“Princess, princess. You need to wake up” Some maids said as they tapped Angela.
She groaned as she sat up on bed and yawned loudly.
“We’ve prepared your bath Miss” One of the maids said.
“Thanks, you can leave now” She said…
They bowed and walked out of room.
She dragged her feet to the bathroom and began brushing. After that, she stripped and sat in her tub…
She began scrubbing her body with sponge as she hummed a song. After her bath, she walked out with a towel tied round her body..
She decided to wear a bum short and an over sized shirt…
She walked out of her room waving at the maids who greeted her. She peeped in the kitchen and walked in.
“I’ll cook, you can rest” She said.
“No need we’re not tired”
“I insist I’ll cook” She replied with a smile.
The maid bowed and stood at a corner watching her eagerly…
She began humming a song as usual as she began chopping the vegetables. Some minutes later a delicious aroma could be perceived.
