Susan stepped inside, carrying the garments with light graceful steps. Yet, she didn’t lift the curtain to enter; instead, she stood silently, waiting.
Recalling Ashley’s promise, a faint smile curled her lips
She would enter the palace as Ashley’s cousin, serve by her side, and oversee the affairs of her palace. Ashley had assured her that she would recommend her to the King. She had no illusions about becoming a consort–if she married outside, she would only be a concubine anyway. A concubine from Vermelle Hall was lower than most, despised even among the lesser wives.
If she was to be a concubine, then she would be one to the most powerful man in the land.
From inside, she could hear the sounds–she had heard them plenty before. Though she had never sold herself, in Vermelle Hall, she had witnessed enough to understand. The uneven breathing, the occasional sharp cries–she knew exactly what they meant.

Even as she spoke, Ashley lifted the curtain and stepped in.
