25: Rogue princess

Gwen walked into Carl's chamber with one purpose in mind, seducing him. where could he be? she thought as she couldn't find him.

"Carl," she called.

"Lady Gwen, King Carl is out of the palace," one of the guards reported.

"Where did he go?"

"I don't know Lady Gwen, he didn't say where he was going, but my guess is that he went to find princess Zara."

Gwen clenched her fist, her rage swelling. How could he go out to find that princess, Is it that Carl has feelings for her? No that can't be possible.

"I know where my brother is," Prince Adrian cut in, with Eric, Zara's little nephew.

They had been playing around close to Gwen's chambers and overheard her conversation with her father.

Eric and Adrian had become best friends since Eric came to Everton.

"Who is that woman? Eric questioned.

"My brother's mistress. Adrian may be five years old, but he knew everything that was going on between Carl and Gwen.

"I don't like her. she wants my aunt Zara dead, so she could snatch the king away.
