kiss on my cheek. “Now go. They are in the room across the hall from your bedroom.” He points to the door. “We will be waiting for you when you get back to your room.” I look down and notice I’m still wearing a towel. “Oh, yeah, your clothes are in your closet, and your underwear is in the drawers,” Augustine tells me.

How?

“My people work fast.” Augustine grins before pulling Greyson away and into his bedroom.

Walking over to the closet, it’s already filled with designer clothing. I run my hand along the gorgeous materials all lined up in a row. They have great taste. I pull open one of the drawers, and expensive underwear is laid out before me. I pick up a pair of black lace underwear and decide on forgoing a bra as I’m only hanging out with my sisters.

I pick a pair of pink floral silk lounge pants and a T-shirt. I grab the silk robe that’s hanging up that matches the pants and wrap it around myself. I walk into the ensuite bathroom at the other end of the closet and try to find a brush for my hair. Opening the drawer, I find one with hair ties as well. He has thought of everything. I tie my hair up into a messy bun and head on over to where my sisters are staying.

I knock on the door, and Skylar answers. She’s dressed in the blue version of my outfit. We take one look at each other and laugh. She wraps her arms around my body and pulls me inside their room.

“The showers in this place are amazing.” Magnolia walks out of their bathroom, drying her hair with a towel, dressed in the same outfit but in red. She throws the towel onto a chair and rushes over, and hugs me tightly. “I can’t believe you did it. Lila… you saved us. You saved our family,” she cries into my shoulder.

Tears fall from my eyes as I hold my sister tightly.

“I have no idea how I did it,” I confess.

We disentangle ourselves and jump onto one of the enormous beds in the bedroom.

“You need to start from the beginning.” Skylar wiggles on the bed with excitement. “I need to know how on earth you snagged the hottie prince. Show me your ways,” she tells me, which makes us laugh.

“I need to tell you both something, and you both need to promise that you will never breathe another word of it to anyone. I mean it,” I state, making sure they realize how important it is.

“Of course. Why would we say anything? We would never jeopardize your life here. Ever.” Magnolia reaches out and grabs my hand while Skylar nods enthusiastically.

“The prince and his bodyguard are lovers.”

The room falls silent.

Magnolia and Skylar blink, slowly taking in my confession.

“Actually, they are both bi-sexual.”

More slow blinking.

“Are you telling me those two come as a packaged pair?” Skylar asks.

“Um… yeah.”

“You get to be with both? The prince and his hot bodyguard,” Skylar clarifies.

“Yes.”

“Dammit, Lila. You’ve hit the jackpot.” Skylar bursts out laughing, which relaxes me a little. I thought for sure they were going to freak out.

“How did you find out about them?” Magnolia asks. And that’s when I regale my sisters with what happened in the garden and in the office and in the shower.

“I have never been so jealous in my entire life. And to find out you’re not even a virgin,” Skylar grumbles.

“Why did you never tell us about any of this,” Magnolia asks.

Not only did I spill about tonight, but I also told them about my colorful sexual history before this.

“I can’t believe you were sleeping with Alec all that time. He was so cute.” Skylar pouts again.

“Why didn’t you tell us about what you saw in the cellars? We could have…” Magnolia starts but doesn’t finish her words because she knows she could never have done anything.

“I didn’t want to burden you both with it. It was confusing. I knew it would lead to a fight with Father, and I just didn’t want to rock the boat,” I explain.

“Do you think mother knew about all that stuff going on down in the cellar?” Skylar asks.

“Maybe. Maybe that’s why she had a headache most nights and retired to her bedroom alone,” Magnolia muses.

“We really came from a messed-up family.” I sigh.

“One that you have now saved, Lila.” Magnolia grins.

There’s a knock on the door, so I jump up and make my way to it. Opening it,
