You stand in the Kings throne room—eyes glued to the palace doors that stand tall at the end of the large room. The king is out with Pitou, hunting presumably? He did not tell you.

normally you wouldn’t mind watching over the kings manor. But recently, he’s formed a bond with a human. It was unprecedented—unacceptable to you. And now, she sits where the king usually sits, dozing off. And you must watch over her, kings orders..

to say you loathed her was a great understatement.
