Chapter 4

THAT NIGHT, Rishe knocked on the door to Arnold’s office and thrust out a basket at Oliver when he opened it.

“Oliver, please give this to Prince Arnold.”

“Um, Lady Rishe…what might this be?” Oliver smiled, but he was clearly hesitant to accept the basket. He must have heard something about the situation from Arnold.

“I made sandwiches as a late-night snack for His Highness.”

“A late-night snack, you say…” Still wearing a confused smile, Oliver tilted his head. “Perhaps this is too forward of me, but aren’t the two of you fighting?”

“Yes, it’s as you say.” Rishe nodded sharply for dramatic effect, thinking about the events of the last few hours.

After initiating her fight with Arnold, Rishe found herself at a complete loss. She had no idea how to execute a fight among lovers. She’d shut herself up in her room and sifted through her memories, but found nothing that served as a good example.

My knight captain was kicked out of his house, but I don’t want to do that to Prince Arnold. Also, my home is too far away to say I’m going back. I saw someone turn all her husband’s shirts inside out once, but I don’t want to interfere with his getting ready in the morning. That would only create more trouble for Oliver.

Her thoughts had gone around and around for some time. With the available options still on her mind, she’d joined her maids for dinner. They’d been surprised to see her, but when she explained that she was fighting with Arnold, they understood immediately. Eventually, the strategy Rishe decided upon was this:

“On the bread of the sandwiches, I’ve written a disparaging comment with sauce.”

“A disparaging comment. On the bread. With sauce.”

“Yes. It says, ‘Your Highness, you idiot!’”

Now she could hold her head high and say she was truly fighting with Arnold. There were plenty of other things she wanted to say to him, of course, but they were far too difficult to write with sauce. She’d decided to get her point across with something simple.

“Er…” Oliver made a strange face, then cleared his throat—and the air with it. He reformed his awkward smile and asked, “Lady Rishe, you went out of your way to cook just so you could fight with my lord?”

Rishe pursed her lips, letting her head droop. “If it’s just putting things between bread, I should be able to prepare a late-night snack without anything catastrophic happening…”

“Pfft!” Oliver clapped a hand over his mouth, shoulders shaking. “Ahem! My apologies. Anyway, my lord said he would be working late tonight, so I’m sure he would appreciate a snack.”

What?! But I wrote something mean with the sauce! Rishe pouted, her conscience wounded. She wanted Arnold to enjoy something better than her terrible cooking, but they were fighting. Yes, that’s right—we’re fighting!

“Incidentally, did my lord have anything to say in regard to this fight?”

“Just ‘very well.’”

Once she made her declaration, the prince had gazed at her tenderly, stroking her hair. Then he’d spun right around and headed to his office.
