Chapter 114

• Simone ripped her door open with too much force. She couldn't help the headache that was crawling its way to her temples. It felt like she was sitting in that room all day absorbing information with the council. It was required, for her best interest, to get acquainted with more queenly duties.
• Of course, Jackson being there too was an upside and a rather wonderful blessing. Queen Emma's intentions were to get Jackson familiar with the way their world worked. She also figured Jackson and Simone could use the time to form a friendly bond with each other, since she wasn't aware of their little romance.
• Jackson accommodated to Simone’s needs. He listened to her and helped her in ways she figured a king would. Every decision he gave was diplomatic and righteous. He was slowly and most assuredly sneaking into her heart.
