Not her realizing that she pretty much bad mouthed the king to his face
Madeline's eyebrows now furrowed even further until she realized who she had danced in the Grand ball of the Hallow. There were only two people Madeline had danced, and it wasn't possible that this person was Mr. Hane. It was the first person she had danced in the Ball, the man with a silver mask who had cornered her was none other than the King.

This is the exact face I mad…
"Was that the shadow warrior that was paired with you?"

Both Calhoun and Madeline stared at each other. The brown eyes staring intensely while the dark red eyes were calm and unaffected when Calhoun's hand reached Madeline's face to surprise her. He ran his thumb just below her eyes to murmur, "Looks like you barely slept last night."

"Alpha! Everything is good!" Calleb's voice could be heard before his happy-go-lucky figure appeared, yet his light step came to halt. His eyes widened. "Alpha, why are you naked?"

At least he owns up to it...
"Are you speaking about me? Doesn't look like any of the qualities that belong to me."

Well your dead no matter what you say...
"Thank you, my King. You're the most forgiving and generous one," praised the man, trying to flatter him.

I knew it!!!
Theodore's brows knit together in confusion, "But the maze doesn't have an exit," at least with what he knew, for years the maze had only one way to get in and out.

"Speak to her using such a tone once more, and you will receive the same fate. Madeline shall not be touched nor spoken to," Calhoun warned to have everyone bow at him right away, "Now if that's clear get the head and body out of this court. He looks hideous even after death."

Well Benedict Is going to die...
Calhoun who saw Benedict step close to Madeline and speak to her, he stood up, clapping his hands that had Benedict step back with pride of him being able to cut the log of wood, "Bravo to the ones who took part in it," he then walked down, stepping down from the raised platform, "It had been a while since I used the axe myself."

Well...this is going to be interesting
Hearing this, her face turned pale. She had told it on a whim but who knew this person was going to make her chop wood in front of everyone?!

Like my step dad if fond of saying, Calhoun id done with this conversation
"No," Calhoun's words of refusal was quick. When his eyes met Madeline's brown innocent one's, he saw her plead at him without words, "Madeline stays here," he declared, not wanting anymore argument on it.

Vain much? “Worthy of”? Yeesh!
She had never seen a man this handsome until now. Beth did not know why she was unable to recollect her time talking to him. His deep voice could do wonders to anyone. She came to the conclusion that it was perhaps because she was asked to dance by several men and their voices happened to mix along with the music which was why she didn't remember. With him talking to her and paying attention, Beth finally felt that God had answered her prayers to receive the attention of a man she was worthy of.

Focus buddy focus...
His eyes glanced to look at her. From where he sat, he could sense the breathlessness from her as if she had figured out who she had danced with. Her skin looked pale, and her eyes not meeting his, she gulped, and his eyes followed the action of her throat.

And saying that would only lead to his death...
Mrs. Harris smiled. Getting into the bed, she fluffed the blanket and put it over her legs, "I heard about it today. Mr. Heathcliff is a good man, and he suits her," she said to him, "Madeline prefers a simple life, unlike Beth. If the King asks we will tell him that we have promised her hand to Mr. Heathcliff as they like each other."

At least someones got a clue...
When both Mr. and Mrs. Harris retired to their room, the man couldn't help but go through the letter that had the King's seal on it. The letter had mentioned about the King being pleased by his daughter, but there was no mention of which daughter he had danced with. Somewhere it worried him with the thought that the King wasn't speaking about his older daughter, but the younger one.

I am pretty sure Maddie’s sister is going to be Jealous
Theodore answered, "Not as many suitors as the elder one. She hasn't been associated with any man. The man who was with her last night was James Heathcliff, who owns the dress shop in their village. It is where they rented the clothes," it seemed that the village girl had caught the King's eyes.

Too late…
Madeline smiled at the man, "I haven't met him to know if I am or not fond of him. I have nothing against him," she added, not wanting to get on the wrong side of the King if ever her words were to reach his ears.
