Chapter 14

“I don’t believe you.” She shook her head and pushed him away from her.

“Amy, have you wondered why you know so much about a country most people haven’t even heard about?”

“I… It was part of my…”

He didn’t let her finish. “Did you know about Edenridge by the time you were as old as Aaron?”

“Sid, what are you trying to tell me?” She raked her fingers through her hair that was still damp from the shower.

“I will explain everything. We need to get past one chamber, and I’m told we have a place to wait until dark.” Sid took her hand in his and led her toward the last door.

The door opened up to what seemed like a small studio. Amy walked around the room in awe as Sid secured the room.

“Sid, this is my old bunk bed and my dresser. I thought we donated these.” She pulled open one of the dressers and found her clothes neatly stacked. She realized there were clothes for everyone in her family.

“Where are my parents and my brother, and why did they leave with Hanna?”

“Hanna is your double, Amy. It’s amazing your father had thought through everything for a situation like this. You ideally wouldn’t have needed me if you had known everything you needed to before this day.” He opened the mini fridge taking out a bottle of water and throwing it her way.

She flopped her body on a chair next to the bunk bed. “Will you tell me what it was I needed to know and why I am the princess when I’ve never been to Edenridge.”

“Remember the history of Edenridge? The King who made the pact with the people of that region was your grandfather, and the King who came close to getting the princely state resolved was your father. Mr. Watson and your father were best friends, and your mother was his sister.”

“My dad is my uncle?” She shook her head in disbelief.

“Yes, they brought you here when you were only six months old after both your parents were killed at the feast massacre.”

Her body shivered, and the warm room suddenly felt like an icehouse. She started pulling all the information she was told by her Dad and Sid together and saw how everything fell into place, but she couldn’t digest it. “I don’t care, I don’t want any of it. I want my life back. I don’t want to be someone I’m not.”

“Amy, you have no choice.” His voice was commanding.

“I do have a choice. I refuse to leave my home.” She held her chin high adamantly.

“I won’t let that happen, Amy. I can’t,” he growled.

“I’m not someone’s property not to have a choice. Why should I do what you want me to do?”

“You are breathing today because of the sacrifices of many people, one of them being my mother.” His voice faded toward the end of the sentence.

“What?”

“You heard me, my mother lost her life trying to save the six-month-old baby who she thought was the future of the country.
