Because in the east tower at midnight, beneath the quiet glow of the candles, the three of us had stepped into a game we didn’t fully understand—a game of hearts, power, and secrets. And for once, the stakes weren’t just political. They were personal. Life or death personal. And the Queen Mother? She would be smiling somewhere, watching. Waiting.
