Summary: When Princess Lindsay is kidnapped, it falls to Gavin to help her escape. Can he pull it off without getting caught by spymaster Trevor?
Lindsay isn’t going to make this easy for King Ryan, either. She‘s no damsel, even if her hands are bound by circumstance. Not bad looking circumstances for sure, given who is keeping her company…
Meanwhile, Alfredo has his own duties to fulfill and something to prove. There’s just something off about Sir Gavin, even if he can’t put his finger on it.

Dark clouds rolled across the sky, hiding the moon. Heavy rain splattered on the cobblestone, the road glistening wetly in the swinging lantern light. The clatter of hooves against stone and the squeaking of the wheels were the only other sounds around them. A crack of thunder, followed by a streak of lighting that lit their way. Lindsay let the curtain drop back to cover the small window.
“Anything?” Lady Ashley asked in a whisper. The future Vidame of Kerplunk twisted one of the many blankets smothering them between her hands. Lindsay shrugged.
“It’s dark,” she offered. Lady Steffie sighed.
