• “I… we don’t know what your lady had overheard, but we were not discussing you, your majesty.” The queen said. She placed her hand over her chest as if the very idea of it was absurd. “We have no bad thoughts of you at all, or your kingdom.”
• “She heard you talk out in the gardens. Do not try to make her sound crazy.” Lucas snarled. He held up his hand to stop Anna from saying anything. “I don’t appreciate my guests thinking they can disrespect me in my own palace.”
