Chapter 16: Whose Warrant
The captain of the palace guard came to the Marshal's door at seven the next morning.
He had twelve men this time, and a paper in his glove.
I watched from the stairs in my dressing gown, with Betsy clutching my sleeve.
Hadrian opened the door himself, fully dressed.
"Lord Marshal," the captain said, with none of his old swagger.
"By the Crown Prince's order I am to execute a warrant against Lady Rosamund Hallowell."
"Show me."
The captain handed it over.
Hadrian looked at it for a moment, and then he walked it across the hall to me.
"Read the date," he said, loudly enough for the street.
I took the page.
It was thick cream paper with the Prince's seal, and my name written in the middle in a neat clerk's hand.
