Katherine and Charles made their way across the castle to Eos's media room while Max trailed not too far behind. With each step, Katherine felt her heartbeat increase.
It was no secret that she hated being on camera. She lacked the grace that princesses and queens were expected to have. This was different from her last announcement though because at least this time she would have Charles by her side.
"Are you still okay with taking the lead? I'm practically useless with a teleprompter, so I have no idea where I would even start without one," Katherine said, finally breaking the long silence. Her voice still had a slight crack to it from all the crying she had done between finding out her mom was safe and her phone call with Jasper.
"That's fine," Charles answered. He still was in his numbed state, and it was pretty clear to Katherine that he did not necessarily want to engage in any type of chit-chat.
Good. She didn't either.
