"Lady Cessily's skin is metallic. Kevin can touch her. She makes it a point of fawning all over him and touching where she isn't welcome." Soo says.
Jubes pours water for the four of them, handing Angela a glass. "Look, when Lady Cessily first came to court, Prince Kevin was kind to her. She didn't look like other people, and was lonely because she thought others would hate her." She explains. "He invited her out to his shop a few times." She shakes her head. "Then, he started dating Josh. She was okay with that, for whatever reason. Even when she caught the pair sleeping together, she didn't throw a fit."
"I didn't know she caught them." Julian put in. "But it makes sense, she was always going into his shop invited or not."
"I think everyone caught them." Soo says dryly. "But then the Summerses appeared. And Josh fell hard for the younger son. That's his husband, now. So when Cessily found out they weren't together anymore, she redoubled her efforts. Kevin's polite, but can be too polite sometimes, believe it or not."
Jubes picks up the story. "Anyway, since he and Josh were no longer together, she started angling for the Princess spot." She sits down, finishing her stew. "No one likes the idea, not even King Erik, but if all is said and done? Kevin has to have an heir."
