THIRTY-FIVE.

IRIS'S POV.

I stared bewildered at Edward. What did he mean by I was throwing myself at him? The king looked between me and him before asking,

"And what does throwing herself at you imply?"

Edward shifted from one feet to the other. He looked across the room for his mother who shook her head at him. I watched the exchange for a while.

"She....I ....ok that's not what happened. Father! Regan has been treating her bad and I know it! But she goes around pretending to be ok! She wanted me to save her from her husband!"

He pointed at me.

"That's a bloody lie! I Never asked you for anything!" I yelled.

"I was on my way to the library when all of a sudden someone grabbed me into a room. It was Prince Edward and he wanted to know how my husband his brother was treating me. I told him he was sweet to me but he didn't believe me. Instead he started.....he started..."

My voice broke. Regan pulled me into his arms again.
