Everyone is playing a regal game. Everyone except Lucia (who probably should).

After her father faced accusations of trying to seize the throne from his father and king, he was exiled along with his family. They were no longer royalty, but his wife would not have it. She was friends with the queen of Vershia and used that to her advantage. Her two older daughters were the right age to marry the two princes, and she would make that happen come what may.

That became a problem when the oldest daughter was ignored by the crown prince, who formed a friendship with the youngest of the girls. There was still hope; Lucia could become the future queen. But Lucia was not groomed for this role. She did not want to live for the type of marriage she could snag. She did not want to take the man who had been planned for her sister.

But that’s the thing with plans, isn’t it? She never planned to fall in love with the man, and there she was: an unwilling participant in the regal games. Would she capture the crown? How would everything affect her relationship with her sister? Was there ever pleasing her mother?

Regal Games

<p>So, this was what shopping in Myria was like. It was not as bad as shopping in Rhodes or Vershia, but there were multiple places of reverie that made the girls pause and simply take in the view. Lucia could not believe the extravagance when shops closed to accommodate only them, but that was the consequence of travelling with their guards.</p>

<p>Maybe it was not just the guards. Adela was certainly recognisable since her pictures were everywhere, and people were anticipating her marriage to their king. Caroline, too, was not low-key. She was the bubbly, beautiful Princess of Vershia by marriage. Lucia tried to kid herself that she would have blended in had she been alone, but she was a Princess of Rhodes now. She was not without fame.</p>
