MATA HARI POV
We ran back to the palace. I was afraid. the prince gripped my hand with such urgency I could barely keep up with him... We went in through our usual way and he pulled me behind a wall when we heard voices coming down the hall.

"The arrival for you and your sisters is great. It will gain much buzz for these games. The Olympics should be a beacon for our dark times of war."

"Don't worry yourself, you will make a fine bride for the prince." The king reassured
I heart sank to my feet and I fought back tears.
