“So, I’m not judging,” Tiberius says, pulling his wool hat down over his ears, “but I wasn’t expecting your perfect idea to be Dwayne driving us for two hours into the wilderness and then trekking through the forest.”

I laugh and tug on his arm. “Just trust me.”

“I do trust you, but I’ve also lost feeling in my—” He stumbles to a stop as we reach the top of the hill and the trees clear. “Wow.”

From up here, we have an incredible view. The trees are covered in crystal-blue ice, the lake is frozen, and towering snow-capped mountains lay just beyond them. Just down the hill from us is a small wooden hut. Smoke rises up from the brick chimney, curling and twisting in the winter air.

Tiberius’s gloved hands grasp my shoulders. “Wait, are those…”

“Yes.”

“Reindeer!” Tiberius stumbles forward.

“This is the Macdonald Reindeer Farm,” I say. To the left of the hut, a herd of reindeer mingle around the evergreen trees. Behind the cabin sit long, elegant sleighs. There are several locals and tourists milling about.

“Are we going to go for a sleigh ride?” Tiberius grins at me.

My face falls. “Well, no. But I thought we could go down and pat them. They really like carrots.”

“But those people are going for a sleigh ride.” He gestures to a couple in a sleigh departing into the woods.

“Yes, but Mother and Ms. Macdonald are rather good friends. Mother would be furious if she knew I went out into the woods. She’d say it’s too dangerous for a queen. Besides, Ms. Macdonald will recognize me for sure. The reindeer know the route, so she doesn’t bother with guides, which means she’s always at the hut.” I feel a knot tangle in my stomach as his face falls. I shouldn’t have brought him here, knowing we can’t do the main attraction.

“You could go with Dwayne!” I gesture behind me to my bodyguard, who looks like a giant snowman, dressed from head to toe in a white puffy jacket and snow pants.

Tiberius follows my gaze and wrinkles his nose, then he turns back to me. “I have a better idea.”
