This question was posed by Sigrid to Mauve and Christie after they finished reading the letter. It had been five minutes and they were rather speechless, stunned as the content was more shocking than they expected.
"He is a really good letter writer." Mauve paid a compliment that she would not rather have revealed. "I have never received a letter from a man before. It is a shame I think now that I see this. I ought to mention this to Galen. Perhaps one of you could let it slip accidentally the next time we all have game night." She looked at Sigrid and Christie with great expectations.
Christie pinched Mauve's waist. "Concentrate on the matters that are important you dumb moth mother. The crown princess is receiving love letters from a man that plans to steal her away. If this letter falls in the wrong hands, the consequences would be catastrophic." With eyes of steel she looked at Sigrid, focused and not daring to blink. "What do you need us to do?"
