ISABELLE’S POV

Elise and Ivy left some while ago. They told me about the new slaves which were brought into the harem yesterday and some other things as well. I was quite surprised to hear about the previous mistresses. Mistresses are in the place to take care of the king’s needs and they are at a high rank than the other common slaves like me.

They live in a separate part of the harem but they are treated nicely. They can roam freely in the palace and wherever they want. Now the king has sent them to the old palace. I have been thinking about this for a while now. What could be the reason for sending them away? Has the king lost interest in them? If it is right, then I hope the king loses interest in me too. I don’t want to be here.

I have heard that there are not many soldiers in the old palace. This means that escape from there is easier and there are more chances. I don’t know what is written in my destiny but I hope whatever it is, it is good.

I am looking outside the window.
