The next morning I wake to my maid rushing around my room grabbing random things.

"What are you doing, Penny?" I ask.

"Oh did I wake you? I'm sorry. I'm leaving right now actually," Penny says before rushing our of the room.

I quietly slip out of my bed wrapping my robe tightly around my body before following her.

I follow her to the King's Chambers where the door is wide open and as I get closer I try and spot what inside and as soon as I do I wish I hadn't.

Inside is blood everywhere and laying in the middle of a huge puddle is Gregory.

That's one site I wish I could remove out of my head forever.

I gasp as I see blood scattered all over and a guard turns spotting me.

"Lady Ivy, I'm sorry, but you can't be down here anymore." The guard said taking my arm and leading me back.

After we get far enough away that I can't smell the blood anymore I turn to the guard inspecting his face.

He's quite nice looking. He has short brown hair that looks like it has just recently been cut. His eyes are so light blue that if he looked at someone long enough he could probably turn them to ice. He's a bit taller then me and looks like a gentleman.

"What's your name?" I ask staring into his blue eyes which you could easily get lost into.

He turns graciously toward me and looks io my hazel brown eyes. "Parker. My names Parker," the guard says.

Parker. That name quite suits him I think. I smile at him forgetting where I just was.

"I'm sorry you had to see that," Parker says.

"I am too. What happened?" I ask.

"Well I'm not supposed to say, but Gregory was murdered," he say staring off into space.

"By who?" I ask curiously.

"We don't know yet," Parker says honestly. Suddenly I remember the look in Prince Nick's eyes when he found out about his mom and he said he was going to kill Gregory.

I know who did it, but with everything that's going on I don't say it in words. I start crying. Parker pulls me to his shoulder and let's me weep onto his guard uniform.

"Let it all out," Parker says holding me in his arms. Once I start to slow down crying he cups my face in his hands and makes me look him in the eye.

"We'll figure out who did it," Parker says and as I'm looking into his eyes I have the sudden verge to kiss him, so I do.
