The Crown Prince Chose the Size 18 Commoner, and the Palace Can't Stop Him novel · Chapter 11 of 24
Chapter 11: Dowry
We reached Brasmere at noon and found the whole court waiting in the throne room.
The Queen Mother was nowhere in the palace.
"Gone to the cathedral for the day," her steward said. "She will not be back before dark."
"Then I'll wait," Lucan said.
A herald in the doorway cleared his throat.
"The Lord Chancellor asks that Miss Valera attend him in the throne room. Now, my lord."
Lucan's hand tightened around mine.
"You don't have to," he said.
"Yes, I do."
I went in on my own two feet, in my green gown, with my head up.
The throne room was long and gilded, with a hundred courtiers lined up along the walls.
The Chancellor stood beside the empty throne with a scroll in his hand.
Rosalind stood to one side, pale and silent.
Beside her, the small gray witness had his pen out.
"Miss Valera," Gresham said. "Your presence is kind."
"You asked."
"I did."
He unrolled the scroll, and I saw the royal arms at the top and a line of figures below.
