The sky was already clearing by the time I finished formulating my next move. With the first light of dawn, I decided it was time to handle this once and for all. I needed to get to the root of the rot in my own house. I took the private stairs to my office, avoiding the staff; I didn't trust what I would do to them. They were all complicit. Every one of them had disobeyed my orders.Opening the mind-link, I commanded, "Hannah, come to my office. Now." I enunciated every syllable with intent."Good morning, Lucien. Is something the matter?" she replied, using that faux-niceness she used to charm everyone. I closed the link without a word to let her know I meant business.Three minutes later, she knocked. I told her to enter.As she stepped in, her eyes darted everywhere except at me. I let the silence stretch, heavy and suffocating."Lucien, you wan—""It is 'Your Majesty' to you," I cut her off. She was getting too big for her breeches, and I needed to remind her of the vast chasm b

Lucien’s Pov I reached the castle gates just after midnight. The guards greeted me with deep bows of total submission, but I was focused on only two things: getting inside and securing the safety of the figure in my arms.Seraphina.Seraphina was bruised, beaten, and unrecognizable from being left outside for God knows how long. I had only taken a brief business trip abroad, and the first thing I heard upon my return was that she had been thrown into the woods because she was "being disrespectful to Hannah." Hannah had no right to give her a punishment I had specifically forbidden.I reached the castle doors and didn't bother knocking; I kicked them open with my foot. The frantic noise inside ceased instantly. I stepped in, ignoring the stares of the staff. They were likely wondering why I was naked and carrying a bloody, bruised woman, but I didn't care. I ignored everyone, including Hannah, who stood shocked; whether by my nakedness, Seraphina's state, or the fact that she was even

It had been three days since the guards threw me into the woods per Hannah’s orders. I had been managing by foraging for berries and roots, praying I hadn’t eaten anything poisonous. I was lost, wandering aimlessly in circles. It was only a matter of time before a wild animal found me, or I died from starvation, dehydration, or hypothermia. Whichever came first. My luck just kept getting worse. From the frying pan into the fire itself. Abandoned at birth, and now this was my fate. I was sure Hannah had already made up a story about my disappearance to Monsieur Aurelien. Or maybe he wouldn't have cared anyway. He seemed to hate my guts for whatever reason. I wonder if he came back home and noticed I was gone, I thought bitterly. I wonder if he freaked out

The next day was filled with another round of mental torture. I was constantly fighting off thoughts of the wolf from last night. Its eyes reminded me vaguely of Monsieur Aurelien, but I didn’t want to get myself into bigger trouble by mentioning something so absurd to him. What if he kicked me out? Or worse, what if he was the wolf from last night and tried to eat me—and not in the romantic way? I was terrified of him. Thankfully, he was still ignoring me, or else I would be shaking like a leaf if he saw me. I was also thankful that the witch Hannah was busy with whatever she did as Head of Estate Affairs. I finished preparing his breakfast. I tried calling for Mrs. Higgins but couldn't find her anywhere. I really didn't want to deliver his food by myself. I really didn't want to interact with him at all. I looked for another maid, Beth. “Have you seen Mrs. Higgins?” I asked, trying to keep my tone light without showing my

I scrubbed the last of the silver polish from my hands, but the grey stains wouldn't budge. They were etched into my skin, just like the exhaustion etched into my bones. It was midnight. I was sitting on my bed, staring at the ceiling. The silence of the castle felt oppressive tonight. Lucien’s coldness in the hallway—Get back to work—played on a loop in my head. I couldn't take the isolation anymore. I grabbed my new phone and tapped Eliza’s name. She picked up on the first ring. "Serphina? Are you okay? It's late." "I hate him," I groaned, flopping back onto the pillows. "I hate my boss. I hate his stupid silver goblets. I hate his perfect face." "Whoa, slow down," Eliza said, her voice sounding tinny. "I need backup for this. Hold on." The screen flickered, and suddenly, the call split into four squares. Eliza was in the top left. In the top right

Three days. It had been three days since Lucien found me in the library. Three days since he promised me peace. Three days since he looked at me with that burning, terrifying intensity that made my knees weak. And for three days, he had treated me like I was invisible. He didn't come to the dining room for breakfast anymore. Mrs. Higgins collected the trays and took them to his study, returning them an hour later, empty and silent. He didn't walk past the kitchen. He didn't summon me to critique the sauce or complain about the texture of the bread. The Estate, which had felt so electric and energy just a few days ago, now felt cold. Empty. I stood at the stainless steel island, chopping carrots with aggressive force. Chop. Chop. Chop. "Is something wrong with the vegeta
