That had been the best sleep Eden had gotten in weeks, or perhaps ever. It could have been logically explained away by her exhaustion catching up to her, but it felt as though it was because Levi had been there. She was warm, comfortable, and safe. Those were all feelings that had eluded her in the previous weeks. The rise and fall of Levi’s chest gave Eden as much peace as the gentle waves of the lake. It deepened her sleep further.

Without meaning to, the couple slept straight through the morning and into the early hours of the afternoon. Eden only stirred at the distinct metal click of her bedroom door being unlocked. Her eyes snapped open, and she lifted her cheek from Levi’s chest to make eye contact with Ivy.

The two of them remained in a deadlock, Eden praying she was dreaming. Her eyes flickered to the clock to find, much to her horror, that it was already half past two in the afternoon. Then, the bedroom door slammed shut, and Levi woke with a start.

Eden was on her feet in a flash, clutching her head. “Oh, this is so bad. This is so, so bad… This can’t be real.”

“What… what happened?” Levi asked, sitting up in the bed and rubbing his face to bring himself out of slumber.

Eden didn’t respond, rushing for the door and flinging it open. Looking up and down the hall, she hissed under her breath. Ivy was already out of sight, meaning she was probably already on her way to tell Carlyle what she had seen. Shutting the door back, Eden clutched her head and sank to the floor.

“We’re both dead. We’re dead.” Levi stumbled toward her, concern glistening in his amber eyes. “It’s 2:30 p.m., and I guess my cousins were sent to find me. Ivy unlocked my door and saw us.”

Levi, too, hissed under his breath. “We could try and track her down.”

“We couldn’t do anything. If you even set foot outside of this room, you’d be captured and killed. Besides, she was gone by the time I got to the door. I have no doubt she went right to my father. Everyone in this damn Kingdom does nothing but try and better their status. What does status matter when you’re a complete jerk?” Eden snarled.

“I agree.” He frowned, wishing it wasn’t so. “Then… then we need to get going. It’ll be a matter of minutes before they swarm the room.”

The impending doom didn’t seem to click for Eden, and Levi forced her to her feet. Snatching his bag from the floor, he rushed to her closet and tossed in several articles of clothing before hurrying back to her and taking her hand. Still, Eden could not act on her own freewill, in complete shock that her secret had been uncovered so easily.

“We’re going to jump and shift,” Levi instructed.

It was only then that Eden realized they were already on the railing. “I’m not the fastest at shifting,” she said with a shake of her head.
