April’s POVI looked at Lucy in shock and felt my blood run cold. She walked towards me, but I felt her reach behind my back to my bag that I had left clumsily on my bed while I was trying to find something to accessorise Conrad's slutty dress with.She pulled out a book and held it tenderly like it was a lost relic.Her reaction intrigued me, and I continued to watch her."April, where did you get this?" She turned the book from hand to hand, scanning the covering and gently running her palms over it."I found it in Susan's room. There was one that Dorian tossed at me that looked exactly like it. He said it was Stacie's diary. It was the reason he had been treating me like trash. Stacie wrote terrible things about me in the diary, and Dorian has been holding on to them and using them to justify his actions. The worst part is that I don't even remember doing any of those things to Stacie."I saw Lucy's body shiver, and she immediately opened the book. It was blank; nothing was in its

April’s POVWe unlocked the door and flung it open. The interior smelled awful, and he pinched our noses closed in disgust. The seats were damp and mouldy and we could find insects already making a home in the tiny crevices of the car.Lucy looked at me downcast. If this was the state of the car, then it was possible that the elements and insects had already eaten away at the fragile paper of the diary.We soon began our frantic search. We checked the pigeonhole of the car and around the seats. Though it was urgent, we were both sceptical about picking out hands inside small holes in case there was a snake hiding inside there or something worse.We searched for hours, and all we could find were soggy tax papers and faded pictures.I could see Lucy's hope begin to waver."I don't think it is here, April. It's possible that it has been destroyed or someone has taken it."I didn't want her to feel bad and continued to encourage her to look. Besides, who would want to read a diary? There

Dorian’s POVRing! Ring! Ring!My eyes opened slowly and I rubbed them sleepily. The sun was barely in the sky and it was dark all around me.Ring! Ring! Ring!My phone kept buzzing and I was startled. Who could be calling me so early in the morning? I stretched my hand to the bedside table and grabbed it. I saw April's name on the screen and all sleep dissipated from my system.April? What did she want? Was she in trouble?I answered the call and put the phone to my ears. Her soft voice filled my head. What a way to wake up to a new day."Dorian, I am so sorry for calling so early but it's really urgent. I need to see you as soon as possible and I don't know if the King will grant me an audience to see you."I felt my heart skip a beat. She wanted to see me? It was urgent. I felt my stomach churn and a mixture of feelings brewed in my gut. What was so important that she wanted to see me so urgently and alone? She didn't say that she was coming with Ivar or Jacob. No Dorian. Pull yo

Conrad's POV"Your father, being the weak fool that he is, gave in to me and finally welcomed me into his bed chambers. He was a grieving man but he fucked me till daylight. It was one of the best nights of my life. I finally thought that he had found his solace and comfort in me, but when the morning came and he saw me in his bed, he was filled with shame that he had betrayed his late wife and sent me out of his bedroom. The days passed by and he acted like he didn't know me. He ignored me and treated me with contempt."She paused, her eyes dazed like she was stuck in a memory and then finally, she turned back to me."Finally, I was pregnant for him and when I told him that I was carrying his heir, I expected him to be joyful but he was angry. He told me that he would raise the child as his own but that I would have to leave and I would never show my face again. I was devastated but I wanted my son to have the life of a Royal, so I agreed and left, with some money that he offered me.

April’s POVThe evening was cool and Lucy and I, along with Ivar and Jacob took a cab into town. Jacob and Ivar were able to convince Lady Vivian to allow them to stay in an inn in the city for the meantime.The stars were already beginning to dot the sky but I wasn't interested in the scenery. The only thing that I had in my mind was to find Dorian and tell him about the diary.Lucy and I told Jacob and Ivar about the diary and Jacob's anger went up a few notches but Ivar simply shook his head. He was speechless. He already believed that I would never do any of those things to Stacie so he wasn't surprised when he heard about the diary dilemma. But like the rest of us, he wondered what Stacie's motive was. It was the only thing that didn't add up. The cab stopped halfway in town and Ivar and Jacob got out. "I really hope Dorian comes to his senses after you explain everything to him," Ivar said wistfully.We left them and Lucy and I continued towards the palace. I could feel my han
