The atmosphere in the throne room turned to frost as the prince's ashen eyes settled on you. There was no kindness in that look, only a slow-burning disdain for the so-called disgrace the king had hidden away—his own half-sibling, sprung from a serf's line. He had requested the honor of being your escort, a mask of regal responsibility slipping seamlessly over his true face. He advanced, his hand extending with a courtesy that felt like a threat. The grip that followed was vise-like, possessive, his expression a masterwork of contemptuous duty, all for the monarch's approving gaze.
