I don’t buy it.

“We have to go, Mags. We have lunch with the queen in an hour, and we can’t be late for that. Rosie needs to make a good impression on her. Especially if she wants to keep sleeping with Greyson,” Skylar teases.

I elbow her.

“Ouch.” She chuckles.

“Good luck with that. Your calls are the highlight of my days,” she adds.

“We will call you after lunch, letting you know how we go,” I tell her.

She gives me a nod and disconnects the call.

“That wasn’t the reception I thought you would get from her,” Skylar says.

“Are we surprised though? Magnolia has always been the serious one.”

“Thought maybe being stuck with her ex might have calmed her down,” Sky states.

“You think her being locked in a house with Dante Carandini would calm her down?”

Skylar chuckles. “Thought she would be having loads of sex like you are having and that might have chilled her out.”

“Doesn’t look like she is. I miss her.”

“Me too. It doesn’t feel right her not being here.”

“It doesn’t. I’m getting married, and I need her here with me. You think maybe I could ask the prince if he could get her to come to the castle sooner?”

“You think Dante will let her?” Sky asks.

“This is a big moment in my life, she should be here.”

Skylar reaches out and clasps my hands. “We could try, but don’t get your hopes up.”

I let out a heavy sigh and my shoulders sink.

“Hey, about Greyson. If you want to be sad because that sex-on-legs man is not in your life anymore then you’re allowed to be. From what I’ve seen, the three of youdohave something special, and not everyone is going to understand it.”

“You don’t think it’s strange?”

“Absolutely not,” Skylar tells me honestly. “In this scenario, you’re the one coming into an already established relationship. Just because you have the ring doesn’t mean you have the heart …yet.” She grins.

That makes sense.

“I’m sure the prince is as devastated as you are that Greyson is gone.”

She’s right. I haven’t had a chance to check in on Augustine to see how he is doing. I was too worried about my own feelings.

“Thanks, Sky, you’re the best,” I tell her, giving her a hug.

“Remember that when you meet the prince’s hot friends,” she shouts, making me laugh.

“Hey, can you give me five, I just need to check on the prince,” I tell her.

“Go, hurry.”

I rush over to Augustine’s office and knock on the door, and he calls out to come in.
