"It seems that I misjudged you," Henry admitted.
"You did. You saw a woman before you and tried to dismiss me, but I won't tolerate the disrespect. I don't reside in the palace, but I hold the title of princess, and you will respect me. Fail to do so and you will be punished," Penelope warned Henry.
Penelope noticed the subtle smile Henry tried to hide by looking away. He wasn't taking her seriously.
"You, you aren't going to last long, and I by no means say this as you will die. I meant to say that you will not hold a place in the town guards for much longer," Penelope said, certain that Henry's time was coming soon.
It wasn't because Henry bothered her, but he had rubbed others who had the power to determine his fate the wrong way. Penelope didn't have to ask for Henry's name since he was always lingering around.
