CHAPTER TWENTY ONE: The secrets behind the marriage.

The courtyard fell silent the moment the door closed behind Celeste.For a heartbeat, neither woman moved. Adrienne sat rigid in her chair, her tea cup still raised halfway to her lips.She'd just called a court lady "Doll" in front of the Queen of Camelot.Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.Queen Helena turned to face her, and Adrienne braced herself for the reprimand. For the lecture about propriety and decorum and how future queens didn't tell court ladies they didn't give two fucks about their opinions."That went well."Adrienne blinked. Set down her tea cup carefully before she dropped it. "Your Majesty?"Helena's expression was serene, but there was something in her eyes—amusement? Approval? Adrienne couldn't quite read it."I wanted to introduce you to the court ladies," the queen continued, moving to reclaim her seat with unhurried grace. "And you did that yourself. I liked how you did it."Adrienne stared at her, waiting for the other shoe to drop. For the "but" that had to be

CHAPTER TWENTY TWO: "Don't go weak on me"

Adrienne entered the knights' ground with Giselle practically bouncing beside her, all giddy energy and bright smiles that felt completely out of place in the training yard.The moment Adrienne's boots hit the arena ground, she knew something was wrong.The knights moved with a different kind of intensity today. Though she has only been here one time, she noticed the sharp, focused movements of men preparing for something real. Swords clashed with more force than necessary. Commands were barked with urgency. The air itself felt charged, crackling with anticipation.Adrienne's eyes swept across the yard, cataloging everything. Double the usual number of knights. Triple the weapons being sharpened and inspected.It didn't look like they were training, it was like a preparation for war.Giselle seemed oblivious to the tension, her attention caught on someone across the yard. Adrienne followed her gaze and found Sir Greene standing near a group of senior knights, his expression serious as

CHAPTER TWENTY THREE: "Disrespect me one more time"

Prince Orion stood at the entrance to the training ground, His dark eyes swept across the scene, the circled knights, Greene's bleeding arm, and Adrienne standing in the center with a sword in her hand.His expression was thunderous.Greene immediately stepped away from Adrienne, lowering his sword. The other knights scattered back to their positions, suddenly very interested in their previous tasks.Adrienne scoffed and dropped her sword, the blade clattering against the ground. She turned and started walking toward the exit."And I asked a question."Orion's voice wasn't loud. It didn't need to be. It carried the weight of absolute authority, stopping Adrienne mid-step."We were sparring, my Lord," Greene said quickly, his voice carefully neutral.But Orion's gaze wasn't on Greene. It was locked on Adrienne, and the fury radiating from him was almost physical."What do you think you're doing in the knights' ground?" His words were precise, with barely controlled fury that's deadly.

CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR: Dismissed fury

Orion's expression went darker.For the first time in his life, he was stunned. Genuinely stunned. Not by an enemy army. But by a woman. A tiny woman he just wanted to get rid of.She'd challenged him to a duel. In front of his knights. In his own training ground.And every man standing there knew she had the right to do it.But his face gave nothing away. Years of training, of controlling every micro-expression, kept his features blank even as fury burned through his veins."You're all dismissed."The finality in his tone was flat.He turned and walked away, his boots heavy on the ground."Greene.""Yes, my Lord."Greene fell into step behind him without question, leaving the training ground and its stunned knights in silence.Adrienne scoffed as she watched Orion's retreating back.He'd just spoiled her fun.She'd edged him on specifically to get what she wanted, a sword fight with the great Prince Orion of Camelot. The renowned warrior who'd never lost a battle. She wanted to test

CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE: SECRETS AND SILK

"She doesn't know about Elowen."Queen Helena's voice was barely above a whisper, but it cut through the silence of the king's chambers. She set down the medicine bowl with deliberate care, her fingers trembling slightly as she reached for another thick sheet.King Matthias lay propped against pillows that seemed to swallow him whole. His skin had taken on a grayish pallor in the candlelight, and his breathing came in shallow, labored gasps.She pulled the sheet up over his chest, tucking it around his shoulders with the same gentleness she'd shown their children when they were small.His hand shot out, fingers closing around her wrist with surprising strength. "You told her? Her father didn't tell her for a reason!"The anger in his voice made Helena flinch, but she didn't pull away. She met his eyes. The same eyes that had once been so sharp, so commanding, now dulled by pain and medication."I only asked," she said, her voice hardening. "I didn't tell her anything.""Asking is tell

CHAPTER TWENTY SIX: TRY AND STOP ME

Elara and Maren remained quiet, they looked everywhere except Adrienne."Where's my breakfast?" Adrienne asked, her voice flat. "It's already noon.""In the dining room, Your Highness." Maren's bow was so deep her forehead nearly touched her knees. "Scrambled eggs, asparagus, vegetables. No bread. Exactly as you requested.""You don't get tired of bowing, do you?"Adrienne walked past them, still wrapped in her towel, water dripping behind her in a trail. She dropped into the chair at her dining table and pulled the plate toward her.She was starving. She'd deliberately overslept this morning, yesterday's conversation with the queen and Giselle had gone on for hours, full of careful words. She'd needed the escape of sleep.Now she'd woken up late, calling her meal breakfast when it was clearly lunch, with less than an hour until she had to stand beside Orion and pretend to be a united front.She picked up her fork and stabbed a piece of onion very hard."Arrogant," she muttered, imagi

CHAPTER TWENTY SEVEN: TO THE DEATH

Before Orion could respond, trumpets blared.The grand doors swung open with a boom that echoed through the hall."His Royal Majesty, King Odin of Valdoria, arrives!"King Odin walked in like he was entering his own castle.He was in his late sixties but moved like a man twenty years younger. Broad-shouldered. Straight-backed. His armor was dark, almost black and covered in the scars of countless battles. His face was weathered, lined with age and experience, but his eyes were sharp and mischievous.Behind him came two younger men who could only be his sons. The first was older, maybe thirty, with dark hair and the calculating look of someone who thought three moves ahead. Crown Prince Gideon.The second was younger, built like a siege weapon, massive shoulders, thick arms, the kind of muscle that came from years of brutal training. Prince Tobias.And behind them, twenty knights in matching dark armor. No advisors. No courtiers. No scribes or diplomats.Just warriors."I welcome you t

CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT: ADRIENNE TOOK HIS HEAD

King Matthias barely finished the word before Tobias was already moving.He came at her with everything he had, full weight, full speed, no warning, and his sword was aimed straight for her like he had already decided this was going to be over fast. Adrienne didn't back up. She came forward and her blade met his so hard the sound snapped across the whole field and the crowd didn't know whether to cheer or hold their breath.She matched him strike for strike.Every blow he threw she answered. He was bigger than her, taller than her, stronger than her, and he was using every bit of it, driving his weight behind each swing, trying to grind her down, trying to make her arms feel the difference between them. Adrienne kept moving, kept reading him, didn't give him a clean hit.The crowd found its voice. Loud and getting louder.King Matthias sat very still up in the royal seats and thought about Silvara for the first time since the gauntlet dropped in the hall. He thought about King Aldric.

CHAPTER TWENTY NINE: “Open Those Eyes, Wildcat.”

The clash between Camelot and Valdoria was brutal.Hundreds of Camelot's knights hit Valdoria's force all at once and drove them back, pushing the fighting away from the villages, away from the streets where people were still running. The crowd that had been watching the duel was gone now. The field was just blood and steel and bodies.Orion moved through the middle of it. His sword came down on a Valdoria knight coming at his side and the man dropped and Orion was already turning to the next one. He kept moving, kept scanning the field, because the moment you stopped reading it was the moment it killed you.He found Adrienne.She had three men on her and she was handling them. She moved around the first one and her blade caught him across the back and she was already turning before he finished falling. The second one swung wide and she let it go past her and stepped in close and drove her elbow into his face and ran her sword through his side. The third came at her low and her boot c

CHAPTER THIRTY: LADY STONIA

"Get the healer here now!" Orion roared.He moved through the corridor with Adrienne in his arms and her blood was on his hands and his chest and he could feel her pulse when he adjusted his grip and it was there but barely, the kind of pulse that made something in his chest go very still and very cold.The male healer was already in his chambers when he got there. He took one look at Adrienne and moved toward the bed the moment Orion laid her down."My lord, I'll need to tear her clothes to get to the wound, the blade has…"Orion went still. "What did you say?"The healer blinked. "The wound, my lord, I need access to…""Get me a female healer." His voice didn't rise. "You are not going to touch her.""My lord." The healer's voice climbed with desperation. "She is barely breathing. If I don't treat this now…""And I said I want a female healer." If looks could kill, the healer would be six feet under, from the glare Orion gave him. "Do you need me to say it a third time?""Here!" The
