Though not thrilled, she thought Prince Frederick was a better option than Prince Arthur.As she gazed at Frederick's serene face, a mix of emotions swirled inside her. She couldn't believe she'd fallen for his charm, but at the same time, she felt a spark of excitement.

Two weeks later.....The sun had barely risen over the capital city of Erudia, casting a golden glow over the kingdom's spires and rooftops. In the shadows, a group of skilled mercenaries, known as the Bad Wolf team, had arrived in the city. Their leader, a towering figure with piercing green eyes, led the team through the winding streets, their movements swift and silent.Their mission was clear: meet with Prince Henry and Prince George, who had promised them a hefty sum for their services of killing Prince Arthur.

His eyes narrowed as he listened to the report from one of his most trusted scouts."They are heading to the old mill, Your Highness," the scout said, bowing low.Arthur's jaw clenched. He knew that Prince Henry an

Ah, there she was, sipping tea and chatting with Princess Sofia. Frederick made his way over, his movements fluid and confident."Hello Sofia, good morning," he said, bowing low over her hand. "And Miss Wilson, you look lovelier than ever."Claire glanced up, a hint of surprise in her eyes, but her expression remained politely neutral. Good morning, Prince Frederick."Princess Sofia on the other hand looked stunned, still processing whether all that just happened was real or not.Undeterred, Frederick took a seat beside Claire, helping himself to a pastry. "I hope you are enjo
Chapter 104: Queen Jasmine's demotion.
The air was thick with tension as Queen Cordelia strolled through the castle's corridors, her silk gown rustling softly against the stone floor. She had sought refuge in the private garden, hoping to escape the prying eyes of the courtiers. As she passed by a secluded alcove, a low hiss pierced the air, stopping her in her tracks.Queen Jasmine emerged from the shadows, her eyes blazing with a fierce intensity. "Home wrecker," she spat, her voice venomous. "You're such an eyesore Cordelia. You truly live up to your reputation as a cheap harlot who opened her legs to seduce other people's husband..."Queen Cordelia's expression remained serene, but her eyes flashed with anger. Indeed silence was the best answer for a fool.She attempted to brush past Queen Jasmine, but the woman's hand shot out, grasping her arm with a vice-like grip."Let go of me, Jasmine!" Queen Cordelia warned, her voice low and deadly.But Queen Jasmine was beyond reason. "You think you're so clever, don't y
Chapter 103: Family dinner went wrong.

Their mother, Queen Jasmine, followed closely behind, a warm smile on her face."Ah, my boys!" Queen Jasmine exclaimed, opening her arms wide. "Welcome home, George! Welcome home, Henry!"Prince George and Prince Henry laughed, embracing their mother before turning to Prince Frederick, who stood watching with a mixture of curiosity and disdain."Freddy, old champ!" Prince George boomed, clapping Prince Frederick on the back. "How you doing brother?"Prince Frederick forced a smile, shrugging off the nickname. "Just keeping busy, George."Prince Henry, the youngest of the trio, grinned up at Prince Frederick. "Hey, Freddy! We brought back stories from our tours, do you want to hear the
