Lucien decided not to disturb the king that day. However, as evening approached, he received some disturbing news about Aurora after interrogating the maids.
The information was serious enough that he could no longer wait.
Without wasting another moment, he headed straight for the king's chambers.
He knocked once.
Then twice.
Yet no response came from inside.
Frowning slightly, Lucien pushed the door open, just as he had done countless times before.
The moment the door swung open, he froze.
Or rather, he wished he could unsee what he had just witnessed.
The king was seated on the bed, and Lady Arabella was practically sitting on top of him as the two struggled over something.
Lucien immediately brought both hands to his face in shock.
The moment the door opened, both Enzo and Arabella stopped what they were doing and turned toward him.
Enzo remained exactly where he was, completely unbothered. A lazy smirk rested on his lips as though he found the situation amusing.
