Chapter 38

I need Corean to stay on his line. I remembered his attitude during the day. I can’t let him do that again. Not now. He needs to be the king.

“Prince Lauren and Prince Corean did not leave the premises of the academy, Lady Tori.”

Good.

“I will have to change, Lily. Please be with Rowan for the moment.” Finishing the éclair, Tori served herself her favorite chamomile tea. Glancing at the folded commoner’s dress, Tori did not mind using it. Finishing her splendid breakfast inside the cell, Tori took the dress and changed for herself with no handmaiden helping her at all. It was not that hard for Tori since the commoners’ dresses did not have the added fancy designs like nobles’ dresses.

Tori’s golden ringlets flowed freely with no jewel pins or ribbons. Her ears were bare from any pearls and jewels. They adorned her neck with the necklace that Lady M gave her. Tori felt light oddly enough.
