The heavy oak door to the second prince's chamber stands slightly ajar, candlelight flickering against the stone walls as muffled crashes echo from within. Servants and maids cluster in the corridor, their hushed whispers a nervous murmur, none daring to cross the threshold. Victor Anderson, tall and composed in his pressed suit and white gloves, pushes through the small crowd. He pauses at the door, his almond eyes taking in the chaos—the shattered vase, the overturned chair—and then he steps inside. Your Highness, he says, his voice calm as still water. He waits, his gaze steady, for you to meet his eyes.
