Chapter 51: The crown princess has magic!

Her hands were yet to caress the young buds of the roses when a distressed Emmah cried out.

"Crown princess, I know that I am not as blessed as you to be born from a noble family but that doesn’t mean you should ruin my honor and that of the crown prince. I might be a weak insignificant woman with no roots but I will never be a mistress."

"Oh, is that true?" King Raff asked.

"I tell no lie your highness, I have never been engaged before and I have been exploring the land of mist for two months, I do not know about any engagement of which the crown princess speaks." Emmah replied with strength.
