"And by the way, move my things and a bed to his room. The room is big enough for tens of people. I'll be staying there from now on. "
The housekeeper froze, then shook his head firmly. "I can't allow that, Your Highness. You just said you won't disturb him, but staying in the same room with him would do exactly that. You already have your own room, especially designed by him. It will make him happy if you stay there."
Nnenna frowned. What's with all this resistance? she wondered.
But before she could press further, the housekeeper's expression smoothed into a polite smile. "I'll go upstairs now to make sure everything is fine with His Highness. Please enjoy your dinner." With that, he bowed slightly and walked off, leaving her stewing in unanswered questions.
Nnenna was displeased, but also considerate. Maybe it was just protocol, every castle had its own rules. But staying so far from Carl's room didn't sit right with her at all. If anything, it only made her more restless.
