"Bullshit!" Prince Edward shouted as he entered a private room in the palace after attending the Council assembly.
The King insisted he showed up to the meeting. His father had appointed him as the representative of his house in the Council as part of his rehabilitation.
"This is your chance to prove to the Council that you have changed." That was his father's exact words when he tried to convince him to attend the private gathering.
He initially declined his father's order, but his father's threatening ultimatum eventually made him realize he had no choice.
After all, his father was still the King of this Kingdom. And his command was the law that even he had no right to break.
He went to the meeting fashionably late, but at least he showed up. However, he could not stand listening to all of them talking and planning about the upcoming coronation, especially when they were not crowning his head.
Thanks
