Bas came to his senses with the sun in his face. He blinked, bleary and confused, and reached for his phone. It wasn’t there, and neither was his nightstand, which was strange, because—

He sat up with a start, reality crashing home. His phone was buzzing urgently, and he followed the sound to his pants, discarded by the door. Had he really been so reckless?

“Bas?” Fiona shielded her eyes, blinking in the morning sun..

“Just a minute.” He fished out his phone and swiped it open, and the breath went out of him in a rush. A text alert filled his screen, eight words, all caps: “COUNCIL CHAMBERS 10AM. CAT’S OUT OF THE BAG.”

They knew. His council and who else? The press? His brothers?

“Bas, are you—”

“I have to go.” He wriggled into his pants, heart pounding. He couldn’t even look at her, or her tousled hair and sleep-soft face would make him forget everything. He indulged in a glance at her gorgeous, puzzled face and wondered which emotion she’d read on his own: longing or regret.

Fiona said something, but Bas’s phone was ringing. The palace was waking up, the warm smell of baked goods drifting up from the kitchens. Someone was beating a carpet in the courtyard, the dull thumping booming through the halls.

Bas didn’t have a moment to spare.
