Penelope & Prince Charming
“Penelope said desperately.
Not when he looked at her like that. She saw danger, she smelled it. And so, like an animal, she scrambled to avoid it.
“Of course you can marry him,” her mother prattled. “You certainly show no sign of marrying anyone else, not after you jilted two perfectly good gentlemen.”
“Mama,” Penelope began.
“You will not mind if I borrow the rubies from time to time, will you?” her mother went on. “And do say I can stay in your palace. Tuck me into a suite, nothing extravagan...t, just ten rooms or so. You won’t even know I’m there.”
“Mama!”
Prince Damien said nothing. He simply watched her, his gaze so intense it tingled the blood in her veins. Sasha, on the other hand, chewed his lip. “It is not that simple, Your Highness. She does not bear the ring.”
“Oh, that is easy.” Lady Trask tugged the silver ring from her finger, held it out to Penelope. “Here you are. I am leaving it to you in my will anyway. My mama told me to.”
