Chapter 12 - A Spy

You weren't able to get much rest on the ride, being bumpy and all, however lucky for you, you weren't being kidnapped. The carriage was actually sent by the king and quickly delivered you back to the palace, the driver informing you that the king was currently busy and unavailable for reasons you weren't allowed to know. Typical.

You dodged the driver's help and hopped out of the carriage, beginning to walk through the garden - pausing to truly admire the beautifully trimmed hedges and freshly watered flowers. Once again, however, your attention was diverted to the large dirt mound in the distance.

Were there bodies buried there? Was some sort of secret pirate treasure map hidden beneath the dirt? Your curiosity got the better of you, causing you to stray off the path and to the large mound. What you saw, you...weren't exactly expecting.

Potatoes?

A lot of potatoes - Jesus Christ. You'd have to ask the king of this later - maybe his favorite food was potatoes? They looked well taken care of, for the most part, so maybe he hired farmers to come here every so often. Whatever it was, you had no idea why it had to be this far off the path.

You headed back onto the path with an annoyed huff, the corset restricting your airways finally becoming annoying. You'd have to get that little guard to help you again, if you weren't able to figure out how to do it.

You entered the palace, looking around the throne room - not quite used to being in without the king. Nevertheless, you didn't abuse this newly found power, quickly heading to the queen's room to change. Once you closed the door behind you, however, the closet suddenly burst open, the blonde boy from earlier bursting out with a pile of dresses.

You had to keep yourself from screaming, looking to him with disgust. "What the hell? We're you tryna watch me get undressed?" You questioned with a glare, crossing your arms.

Tommy looked up at you with a glare of his own, quickly getting up and brushing himself off. "I would never! Also, goddamn, woman, you take forever to get here!"

"So you've been waiting? Pervert!" You walked over to him, practically towering over the child.

"I swear it wasn't like that - I-I wanted to catch you by surprise! I saw you with that thief today!"

You froze at his words, picking him up by the collar. "Excuse me?"

He raised his arms to protect himself, looking away. "I won't tell, I won't tell! I just wanna know what you're doing with him! I know that guy - he gave me a lesson on how to fight one time, nice guy!" He spoke quickly and sporadically do the point where you were almost unable to understand him.

"You know him?" You set the kid down, your glare settling into a look of unsureness.

"That's what I just said! Are you even listening?" He huffed, leaning against the wall. "Look, I won't tell the king under one condition - you tell me everything that happens!"

You raised an eyebrow. "You serious, kid?"

He looked down to the floor, pouting. "Well, yeah...! It's boring around here, okay? None of the guards ever wanna talk to me cause I'm so young! I can't leave, either, or the king'll have my head."

You took a step back. "So that's all?"

"And, y'know...be my friend?"
