Chapter 58.
~Katrina~
My throat went dry the moment I saw them—Queen Fortuna, Princess Rania, Rosalind, and Marissa. The most powerful women in the quarters. They were all standing together, waiting for me. That could only mean one thing—they came looking for me. But why?
Fortuna was supposed to be at the main building. What was she doing here?
I took a shaky breath and tried to walk past them quietly, hoping I could slip into my room without being stopped. But luck wasn't on my side.
"Where are you coming from?" Queen Fortuna's voice cut through the silence like a blade. There was fire in her eyes, and I had no idea why. Was she angry because I went out with the king?
No!
No one knew about it…except Rania. She stood quietly, her face unreadable.
"I—I went outside the quarters," I said, my fingers trembling. I couldn't tell them the truth. It was supposed to stay between the king and me.
