LOGINGEORGINA'S POV, “I don't want to hurt anyone else. I don't want to keep living like this,” he said, his voice softening with that raw honesty that always got under my skin. It pulled at the threads of what we used to be, before I betrayed him and convinced the entire kingdom, including him and hi
GEORGINA'S POV, “It means maybe we shouldn't be doing this at all,” he said, with a serious expression on his face. And for a second I thought I misheard him. There was no way he would be talking like that for long. He grew up in luxury, with servants, and an endless flow of money to fulfil all
GEORGINA'S POV, As I opened the door, the house smelled like decay. I noticed it the second I stepped inside. I wanted to leave instead of stepping further inside because the damp air clung to my skin, thick with the scent of rot and neglect. The floor creaked under my heels as I moved further in
ELENA'S POV, “So you think someone let him in. Deliberately.” He stated, and it somehow made me feel extremely happy to see that he didn't present it like a question. “The guards let in a stranger to your quarters without informing Joyce or me about it. That's not a good sign. I specifically asked

RYAN'S POV,“You will remember. Or you will leave.”No one moved or spoke after that because the message was clear. I was done with their big mouths and discriminatory eyes that looked down on others. They forgot that decades ago, the Monarchy was removed and a Republic was installed in its place to
RYAN'S POV,I sat in silence long after Corbin left the room, thinking about an appropriate next move. I had so much going through my head, yet I couldn't come up with something that wouldn't hurt Elena. I couldn't show favouritism, but at the same time, I knew someone was trying to pull us apart by
CASEY'S POV,It had been three days since the rumors about Ryan marrying Elena started, and I was done waiting for it to die down on its own. My mom suggested that I start another rumor, something better than before, but I was tired of the same old games. I wanted to try something fresh, something n
Elena smelled of honey, of parchment and ink from Ollie’s lessons, and of the faint lavender she used sparingly. However, the scent on the file was of an imported product.
