**CALLUM'S POV**
I alerted the staff right away. I wanted to make sure that they knew they needed to be in the throne room for a meeting immediately following breakfast. I didn't care that it was going to mess up their schedules for the day. I didn't care that they were going to need to work a little harder than usual.
Normally, I would care. I didn't like being that mean to people just for the hell of it, but I needed to put my foot down here. I needed to make sure that they understood that they had messed up. It wasn't my fault that they were being reprimanded and punished. It was their fault.
The entirety of the palace staff had started to gossip about Addie and myself. They seriously, for some reason that I didn't understand, had thought that I brought her here to be a mistress or second wife. That couldn't have been further from the truth.
