was replaced by anger as she looked at her sister in law
with her big eyes wide open and her facial expression filled
with harshness.
“I am a princess and a daughter of a king,” she said

savages will not, as long as I shall live, be my family. I do

everyone else need to understand this. I will stay the way I
am, whether you like it or not.”
Raelene who was already angry because her brother
married the daughter of the king became even angrier.
Nevertheless, she did not reply to the princess as
she wanted to keep the harmony her family had always
lived in.
