Capítulo 44: A new escape plan

Prince Ivan and his wife, Luciana who were still seated in the garden, but were now in the company of the queen, both turned to look at what the queen was staring at so intently with a slight frown on her face, and their brows creased as well when they saw the king walking into the garden with Harold and his bride.

What is going on? Ivan wondered with displeasure as he watched the trio move to the other side of the garden. Why was the king always meeting with Harold in private but not with him? He was the legitimate son, after all, and Harold was the son of a mere slave. This didn't sit well with him.

"Why are they here with the king?" Ivan voiced the question on the queen's mind when some servants came in carrying different dishes.

"They obviously want to have lunch," Luciana pointed out, and that earned her a sharp glare from her husband, and the Queen eyed her with disapproval.
