I checked Marie's room first and I found her lying face first on the large bed. She always slept like the dead which I found ironic knowing now that the real Marie was supposed to be... dead. I wanted to go in and check on her but at the same time didn’t want to risk waking her. There was still a lot I didn’t know and I wasn’t sure if I would be able to control my emotions around her.

I took a step back and made to leave when I got a whiff of something so bad, it smelled almost rotten. The smell nearly knocked me off my feet and I was about to take a step in to investigate when someone cleared their throat next to me. I looked up and found Peggy. She had a warm smile on her face as she analyzed me.

“Is everything okay?” she asked and I nodded slowly. “If you want to see Marie I think you are better off coming tomorrow. You know how she can be once she falls asleep. I wouldn't want you to wake her up and have her go bat shit crazy on you.”

I forced a small smile on my face. “Of course, just let her know that I came looking.” I noticed she was still staring at me. “How long has this smell been in your room?”

“I don't know a few days maybe,” she shrugged dismissively. “I was going to look into it but I lost track of time and I never seemed to be able to get to it.”

“You don’t have to do it,” I placed a hand on her shoulder and gestured to the wideness of the hallway. “You are in a palace and you are lucky because apparently, I am Queen. I'll have someone look into it tomorrow. I don’t even know how you manage with this, it is horrible.”

“Thank you, Camilla, you are amazing.”

I gave her a warm smile and a tight bear hug before finally walking away. I felt her eyes on me until I turned down th next hallway and I stopped the first maid I saw to give her the order. I knew they wouldn't be able to do it tonight, but at least I had done my part and delivered the instruction. To avoid an incomplete reading experience, visit Jobn'i'b.com. I was exhausted and just wanted to climb in bed and fall asleep. I was desperate for a few seconds of ignorant bliss where I could just forget about everything and be trapped in my own dream world.

I was making my way up the stairs when I noticed Ryker coming the same way I was. “I thought you would have gone to bed by now.”

“lI would have but I saw Peggy walking the halls. It seemed like she was looking for something but she told me she was looking for you,” my brows furrowed. “I told her that you had probably gone up to sleep.”
