Chapter 301

• Harlyn
• Just as Helaine had predicted, my life got really busy in the weeks that followed before my coronation. Every day, I woke up busier than I was the previous day. Honestly, there was so much to do that at some point, I actually considered running away. I even called Hillan and begged him to come get me but he just laughed and told me to suck it up and prepare because he wanted to see me wear a damn crown.
• It didn’t help that the more my pregnancy days passed the more I got cranky and easily annoyed. Princess Leah joked that I gave up other pregnancy symptoms just to focus on being a mean bitch and she said it so sweetly that I couldn’t even be offended. Not like anything she ever said would offend me.
