Even though she scurried over to throw open the door, the hallway was already empty. “Typical,” she muttered to herself as she reclosed the door and locked it. Her brothers had teased her with just enough information to pique her interest about who they would be bringing with them to Isle de Monsail, but then left her hanging to wonder about it all day.

Deciding that it would have to wait, she fired off a quick response to Sebastian to let him know their plans. Rather than asking permission, she informed him that her brothers and two guests would be coming with them.

When the three dots immediately lit up to indicate that he was answering, she waited with bated breath to see what he would say. His one-word response of, “Great,” made her wonder if he was being sarcastic. Perhaps her brothers’ reputations preceded them. After all, they were overly represented in tabloids and all of the celebrity gossip websites.

She briefly considered calling him to get a read on his real reaction, but one look at Mo, who was staring off into space, told her that she didn’t have time to mess with that.

Even though Mo had been in the room for the entire exchange with her brothers, Tess wasn’t sure how much of their conversation she had absorbed, considering her fugue state.

Moving Mo’s legs, so she could rejoin her on the couch, Tess inserted extra enthusiasm into her voice when she said, “My brothers and their mystery guests are taking us back to the island tonight. We’ll find out exactly what the prince was thinking and set him straight,” she promised.

Mo nodded blankly before saying, “I’m hungry.”

Tess couldn’t keep from beaming at her friend’s statement. It was quintessential Mo. “Yay! She’s back.” Tess gave the woman a warm hug before heading to the kitchen to scrounge for something for them to eat.

The day flew by as the women made preparations to return to the island. They unpacked, made trips down the hall to the coin-operated laundry machines, and repacked. The level of excitement for this trip was definitely much less than the last time they had been preparing to visit the royals, but there was a renewed sense of hope in the air. Mo’s lifeless stare had been replaced with a determined gaze. She obviously wasn’t going to let the prince off the hook without a reasonable explanation for his sudden change of heart.

Having an actionable plan gave the ladies a meaningful purpose. Even if it turned out that they still couldn’t be with Pierce and Sebastian, at least they would get some closure.

Tess offered to accompany Mo to her own apartment, but the woman indicated there was nothing for her there. The way she worded it made Tess wonder how bad things would get if the prince confirmed that he was truly over Mo.

It didn’t make sense that Pierce’s feelings would flip-flop so quickly, but maybe growing up as a royal had given him a sense of entitlement that he could treat people in any horrible way he chose.
