“Don’t be rude, Nicholas.” Terry placed his hand on Nicholas’s shoulder and eased him to the side. “Let

me see the girl, at least.”

When I was in plain sight once more, his smile added teeth. “Ah, there you are. As stunning as they

say. And where is little Elva?

Elva peeked from around my skirts.

“Hello, little girl. Aren’t you a pretty one?”

“A charming child,” Terry said. “You must be proud.”

Now, I could start to see why Nicholas had attempted to shield me, even if subconsciously.

But I had spent a lot of time around some not-very-nice people, and Terry was ringing all the alarm

“Would you?” Terry lifted a brow. “That would be a first.”

Nicholas’s jaw clenched.

And there, that was the reason I didn’t trust Terry.

Because Nicholas didn’t trust him, and I trusted Nicholas. I didn’t really need a reason beyond that.

Very well,” Terry said with a sigh. “Show me the way if you must.” To me, he offered one final smile. 1

I dipped my head in acknowledgement. I had no intention of returning the gesture

As they walked away, I took Elva’s hand and began the trek to my room. I found Mark waiting for us at

the end of the hallway

Mark returned to my room with Elva and me Along the way. I struck up a conversation

“I met Terry.” I said.

“Yes, I saw.” He didn’t offer more than that on his own

I would have to be careful around him

“But,” Mark continued. “Terry is well respected around the palace. He treats his staff well, pays very

I nodded, taking the warning for what it was if the staff was fond of him, I would have to be careful what

I did or said, lest I earn their ire I knew what the staff was capable of, and wanted to stay on their good
