“Charlene!”

She had broken into a run the moment she was out of sight, but I caught up fast, grabbing hold of her arm as I battled my emotions, trying to calm the storm that was raging outside and within me.

Breathe…

“My queen…” I said softly as she refused to look at me.

I tugged her around gently and she turned. It killed to see the fat tears spilling down her cheeks. I pulled her into my arms, hugging her tightly. “Just like that, he cast me aside.” She whispered. “Well he just lost the only daughter he had. It’s his loss.” I said angrily, as she pulled away. “I’ll ruin your dress.” She said wiping away her tears, as she wrapped her arms around herself. “It hurts… not only have I lost Mom… but Dad too…”

I frowned, maybe Gamma Grayson needed to know… Maybe he would be the father she needed, the king and queen were both disgusting in my eyes. 2 “He doesn’t deserve to call you daughter, don’t let his words get to you.” I comforted her, stroking her arm and brushing her tears away gently. She looked down and nodded, forcing a smile. “Yeah… I’m just… the daughter of no one now… Just an orphan who took the place of the true princess.”

“I’m sorry, Charl.”

“Don’t. Why apologise for something you have no hand in? I’m just… upset with Dad…” She whispered. “Sure, he addressed me as his daughter, but at the same time he insulted me.”

There was nothing to say to that.

How do I tell her he didn’t deserve her or could justify any of this? His lies had been shocking. I gave her another hug as we heard footsteps. Charlene turned away, taking a deep breath as she patted her tears away. Theon’s scent reached me before he came into view, my heart skipping a beat as I looked him over; black pants, satin shirt, and boots, with a silver and black jacket on top. A chain was on the side of his pants, and I couldn’t deny that he looked incredibly handsome, dangerously sexy… The expression on his face emphasised his chiselled jaw and cheekbones. “You’re staring.” He said, making me blush, before he added quietly. “Unless we both get to stare.”

My eyes widened, and I wondered if he had actually said that or had it just been my imagination? He was looking towards the window now, frowning at the storm outside, before he turned to

“I came to make sure you didn’t lose control.” He remarked, looking me over. My stomach fluttered when his eyes darkened with clear approval.

“Or he came to admire how beautiful you look.” Charlene said, smiling as she gave my hand a squeeze. Apart from her eyes being slightly red, she looked normal. 1 It didn’t mean the king’s words were forgotten, Charlene was just good at hiding her emotions.

“Or that.” Theon said huskily, making me raise my eyebrow. “Did you practise how to be charming all morning? Must have been hard work.” I mocked. s “I already told you, charming doesn’t work for you now, does it?”
