For the next few hours after William leaves, I keep myself busy with some work or the other. Right when I'm about to lie down to get some rest my phone starts to rings. I check the caller ID before answering.

"Hey!" I call out already half asleep.

"Hi! You sound tired." William comments.

"I am tired." I groan.

I hear him laugh. "Well, tough luck."

"What do you mean?" I ask him, somewhat awake.

"You had an appointment with Dr. Maria." He tells me, making me exclaim. "What?!"

"I completely forgot and from what I gather from your response you did too. It was scheduled for an hour ago and she called me a few minutes earlier to remind me. She said that she can see us at five. Which is two hours from now. Are you up for it?" He asks.

"I guess." I sigh.

"I'll be back in an hour to pick you up." He tells me.

"Bye. Have fun with the paper work." I say, smirking.

"I'll try my best. Love you." He says, like always making my heart melt with just two words.

"Love you." I say back before ending the call.

I stay put in bed for a few more minutes before forcing myself up and into the closet to find myself suitable clothes to wear.

Once I've changed I pick up my phone and call Helen. She doesn't pick up but calls back after a few minutes.

"Hi! I'm really sorry I was helping Sarah get ready." He explains.

"Ready for what?" I ask her.

"I'm taking her out for shopping since we haven't really had much of bonding time." She replies.

"Oh! That's really great." I say, smiling to myself.

"Thanks. Why exactly did you call?" She asks reminding me of my reason for calling her in the first place.

"Right! Thanks for reminding me. I just wanted to let you know that I'm done with the Female Rights documents. And if you want, you can have the rest of the day off instead of just the two hours." I say.

"Oh! Thank you so much. That'll be great."

"No problem. See you tomorrow then." I tell her.

"Yeah, she you." She says, ending the call.

I finish putting on my shoes and then slowly and as gracefully as possible make my way down to the dining room where luckily one of the housemaids is working.

"Princess Cassandra." She says with a curtesy.

"Hi! Could you please run down to the kitchen and ask for some leftover sandwiches from lunch" I request.

"Of course, your highness." She curtsies again before hurrying out of the room.

I sit down on one of the chairs to wait for my food to arrive when my phone chimes notifying me of the arrival of a message.

I check the message to see that it's from an unknown number which strikes me as strange as no one has my number except my family and closest friends.

I open the message to see that there is a two minute video. Even without playing it I can see that it's of bad quality. As if shot in dim light.

With uncertain fingers I play the video.

It starts with the person making it capturing the inside of a club. Then the camera starts moving as the person walks towards the entrance. But instead of going out the camera turns to give a view of something that makes me want to throw up.

There is a long couch lining the wall and on the couch are two figures, tangled up. One is a blonde female and the other...

With his back to me is a man wearing a sweater I picked out this morning, William!!

The next few chapters are going to be short like this one as I've broken down a long chapter into several smaller ones.

A huge thanks to all those people who stayed put with me through all the previous chapters! Thank you so much! :))

More suggestions for the playlist!!! Please!!!
