*Melody Pov*

I woke up hearing the rustling sound of sheets and opened my eyes to see that I am no longer snuggling him. I glanced up to see him leaning on the headboard and rubbing his eyes.

"Morning!" He greeted when he saw that I am awake.

"Morning!" I greeted back.

"Princess! I want to know some answer to my worry." He said looking at me.

"You can call me Melody." I said and then slowly got up to lean back but not fully.

"Right! Did your consent was present in our...." He trailed off gesturing us both on the bed.

"Oh!" I mumbled realizing what he is asking about.

"You need not worry about it Prince Kendrick. If my consent was not there then I wouldn't have allowed you to....." I trailed off not knowing how to describe what we actually did.

"So I didn't coerce (force) you right?" He asked again.

"No!" I replied shaking my head.

"I guess we need to.. Have a bath before someone comes to wake us up." He said and I nodded.

"Your chemise (shirts) and breeches (pants) are in there." I said showing him the closet on the left end.

He nodded and didn't move so I glanced at him hoping that he will but he just sat there looking around the chamber.

"Uhmm.. will you go for a bath?" I asked him murmuring.

"Oh! I thought you would want to go before me. I will take my bath then." He replied and started getting up.

He too looked uncomfortable so I shuttered my eyes to give him some privacy. I opened them when I heard the washroom door closing.

In a flash I started wearing my gown before he walks out which will save us both from discomfort. I couldn't wear my corset as I will not be able to tie the strings. I tried to tie my gown strings at least a little.

When he walked out I got inside and had my bath. But then another problem arose and as I didn't know what to do I came outside wearing my robe which will cover my untied corset.

"Can I call my caretaker?" I asked him nervously.

"What for?" He asked confused.

"I need her help." I replied not knowing why he is even questioning me.

"I can help." He offered and started walking towards me.

"With my corset?" I asked him shocked.

"Oh! Well... I can.. I guess." He replied.

I nodded and turned around with my back to him. I slowly released my robe only until the strings.

He slowly moved and started tightening them as I have tied them very loosely. When I finished I started wearing my robe back but not before getting a kiss on my shoulder from him.

I rushed inside the washroom again to wear my gown and again asked his help for tightening those strings too.

We both walked out only to see Amy who looked like was about to knock on our door. She got shocked and took a step back and immediately blushed.

"King Albert is asking for you both, Princess." She said looking at me.

I nodded and we both walked towards the counsel room where we saw our both fathers sitting beside each other and discussing something.
