He didn’t elaborate, of course, and only asked, “Now what?”
“I have to find some way to make the king like me,” I said as Theo and I walked back toward my room. I wished he would’ve just left this to me, but he seemed determined to be involved in every aspect of this. Maybe he wanted to make sure I didn’t mess it up.
Brook met us outside of the library, and she was very supportive of my trying to win the king’s heart again. “You could make his favorite dessert. He loves royal cherry revelry cake. Remember when you tried to make it for him last year, and you accidentally burned it?”
I didn’t remember that, of course, but I couldn’t tell her that. Theo and I knew that we were the only ones who remembered who we were. I couldn’t help but wonder what had become of Warren and Sophia.
“What do you think, my lady?” Brook asked me. “Shall the two of us head to the kitchen?” She gave Theo a look that said that he wasn’t welcome.
