One of them has a similar nose, and she loves to hold it close to her nose and smell it.
One of them had a similar lip shape, and she loved kissing him the most.
But now, they have become cold, lifeless corpses, deliberately placed in her bedchamber.
"Guards!"
She screamed like a madwoman, but no servants answered.
A cool breeze blew by, and a masked man in black appeared beside the corpse.
"You! Who are you! How dare you touch my people? Don't you want to live?!" The princess was both angry and in pain.
