The palace had a habit of making every day feel the same. From sunrise until dusk, bells dictated the hours, servants hurried through familiar corridors, and nobles drifted from one meeting to another as though the castle itself had become a great machine that never rested, which actually, it never did.

Prince Kelvin had grown tired of it.

"You're frowning again."

He looked up from the council table.

Sir Roland Ashcombe, an elderly adviser whose beard had long sinc

  • The Secret Of My Royal Prince   Chapter Sixty: Cruel But I Did It For You

    Two evenings later, Evercrest's royal carriage arrived at the residence of Lord and Lady Briarroot whose family belonged to House Briarwood and had invited the court to celebrate Lord Briarroot's birthday.The estate had been prepared for a grand gathering, with music drifting through the reception rooms and candlelight reflecting from the tall windows. Nobles filled the house in their finest clothes, exchanging greetings and discussing the affairs of the kingdom over glasses of wine and a grand buffet.Kelvin arrived with Elaine at his side.Their entrance drew the attention expected of the heir to the throne and his future bride. Kelvin greeted the assembled guests with measured courtesy, while Elaine moved gracefully through the reception, offering congratulations to their host and exchanging pleasantries with familiar faces. To anyone watching, they appeared every inch the royal couple the kingdom expected them to become. Only Elaine could see how much effort Kelvin was making to

  • The Secret Of My Royal Prince   Chapter Fifty-Nine: Hold On Tight For A Lifeline

    The journey to Master Corwin's former residence took Beatrice beyond the familiar roads surrounding Evercrest, through a succession of small villages where the morning mist clung to the fields and the chimneys of cottages sent thin trails of smoke into the pale sky.She had spent the previous evening studying the household travel register, hoping to find some indication of where Corwin might have gone after leaving the castle. Instead, she had found an address recorded years earlier, with no recent correspondence or forwarding details to suggest that he had settled elsewhere.It was not much to go on, but it was all she had.The dwelling stood at the end of a narrow lane, its stone walls weathered by years of rain and its wooden gate hanging slightly crooked on its hinges. A woman answered Beatrice's knock, wiping her hands on a cloth as she examined the visitor with understandable curiosity."Good morning," Beatrice said politely. "I wonder if you might help me. I'm looking for Maste

    In another part of Evercrest, Valerie was discovering that her own position had become far less secure than she had imagined.The royal physicians had still not confirmed her pregnancy, and the uncertainty was beginning to wear on her. She had expected the claim to bring her closer to the royal family, perhaps even to earn her the queen's protection. Instead, she found herself waiting for answers while every conversation with the household seemed to carry the possibility of an unwelcomed question.Queen Vivienne had made no accusation, but Valerie could not forget the measured way she had been examined and questioned. The physicians had asked for further time, and the queen had agreed. Nothing had been settled. Still, Valerie was increasingly troubled by the thought that the delay might not be entirely in her favour.That afternoon, she crossed the gallery outside the royal apartments and found two attendants speaking near a window. Their conversation stopped when she approached. One

  • The Secret Of My Royal Prince   Chapter Fifty-Seven: Fragile Heart Broken Before

    The rain had stopped by the time Beatrice returned to the record chamber.Pale sunlight filtered through the tall windows, illuminating the dust that drifted above the crowded shelves. The castle had settled into its morning routine, but Beatrice's thoughts remained on the narrow country road where she had encountered Titus Vale. She could still recall the terror in his eyes when he saw her, followed by the desperate haste with which he had fled into the trees.For months, everyone at Evercrest had believed Titus was dead. Now she knew otherwise.She placed her notebook on the table and opened it to the page where she had recorded the details of the encounter. If Titus had survived, then someone had been wrong about his death, and she needed to understand why. His fear suggested that he was not merely ashamed of having abandoned his post.The altered duty schedule had already drawn her attention to Master Corwin. Edwin Pike had originally been assigned to Prince Kelvin's horse, yet th

  • The Secret Of My Royal Prince   Chapter Fifty-Six:

    The following morning, Beatrice returned to the royal archives before the castle had fully awakened.The early hours were the best time for work of this kind. The corridors were quieter, servants had not yet filled the castle with the sounds of their daily duties, and the officials who frequently requested records had not begun arriving. Beatrice lit a lamp beside her desk and opened the ledgers she had collected so far.She was not interested in Titus's death. That part of the story had already been questioned. What she needed to understand was what had happened before the Crown Hunt.The stable assignments were the first on her list. And the first schedule showed the servants originally assigned to the royal horses. Beatrice ran her finger down the list until she reached Prince Kelvin's name.Edwin Pike.She knew that name. He had been assigned to Kelvin's horse. Turning the page, she noticed that a second copy of the schedule had been filed with the records from the day of the hunt

  • The Secret Of My Royal Prince   Chapter Fifty-Five: Take All These Chances Again

    By the time Beatrice reached Evercrest, the sun had already begun its descent behind the western hills.She dismounted in the lower courtyard and handed her horse to a waiting stable boy, but her thoughts remained on the road behind her.Titus Vale was alive. She had seen him with her own eyes. He had recognized her, and the fear in his expression had been unmistakable before he disappeared into the trees.Beatrice had spent the journey back considering what she should do with that knowledge. She could take it directly to the queen. She could speak to Prince Kelvin. She could even bring it before the council.But something restrained her.Titus had run from her for a reason. Whatever had happened after the Crown Hunt had frightened him enough to abandon his identity and disappear from the kingdom's attention for months. If Beatrice brought his name into the open now, she risked drawing attention to the very man who had spent years trying to remain hidden.She needed someone she could
