Chapter 13 Guilty Desire

• A forbidden thought pierced through her like an arrow, and now the desire to know what a kiss like that would be, but on Henry's lips, was born within her. She shook her head, pushing away that insane thought, and went to the bathroom to wash her face with some water, always kept ready by the maids for her.
• What madness was she thinking? A kiss couldn't leave her feeling so shaken, right? She wasn't like that, she wasn't a woman who fantasized, she wasn't saintly, but neither was she shameless. However…, Frederick's kiss had awakened things in her that she never could have imagined feeling.
• Selene violently splashed the water, wetting the hem of her dress, but she didn't concern herself with such trifles. All she wanted was to forget what had happened that night, that was for the best. Nobody should find out about that kiss between the king and her.
