Princess Veronica
“You’ve got the poker face of a five-year-old playing Go Fish,” I said to my
best friend Daphne as she pretended not to peek at her phone. “What has
got you so captivated?”
“Nothing,” she answered while we sipped tea on the royal terrace. “Do
you fancy a vacation before you start your new project? Maybe London or
Sydney?” She shot another glance at her phone, then set it face-down on the
table when she saw I caught her. Again.
My suspicion radar vibrated like crazy. There was something she didn’t
want me to see.

“Let me have a look at your phone.” I held out my hand. “If it’s nothing,
you won’t have a problem showing me what you were looking at.”
“It is inconvenient and highly frustrating that you know me so well,”
Daphne said.
“And it really isn’t necessary to protect my feelings,” I said. “I can
handle whatever it might be. What is it, more gossip?”
Daphne shook her head. “It’s just a replay of the top story on Channel
Five news. It’s about your love life, or the supposed lack thereof. Nothing
you should be looking at.”
“Are they running out of genuine news?” I feigned indifference while
my stomach twisted with annoyance.
I was getting a little tired of the scrutiny and speculation of people who
didn’t know a thing about me. Ever since my wedding was canceled, the
world had been obsessed with my next move. Or, my next man, to be more
accurate. Well, I had news for them: I didn’t have a plan and I didn’t have a
man. The only thing I wanted to do was enjoy my three weeks of downtime
before I got to work on my passion project with the International Grain
Coalition.
Daphne continued with that look on her face. The “There’s something
you should know, but you will not like it” kind of look. The curiosity
bubbled inside me, a vexing itch that just had to be scratched.
“Show me,” I said. “I want to see what’s got you so jittery.”
“It’s the tea. You know how Earl Grey gets to me.” She glanced inside
her full cup, then back up at me with chagrin.
I crossed my arms and waited.
Daphne sighed and handed me her phone.
I nixed the subtitles, turned up the volume, and tapped on the rewatch
button.
“The unexpected breakup of Prince Oliver and Princess Veronica
continues to take the world by storm.” The news anchor’s tone hovered
between intrigue and pity.
Both Oliver and I were beyond grateful that the arranged marriage
meticulously planned by our parents had been called off. We’d been friends
since childhood, but the thought of marrying him was about as off-putting
as marrying my brother. I had certainly dodged a bullet, but why was the
spotlight on me?
“And what’s next for the princess?” the news anchor continued as a
montage of my photos slid across the screen. “Does Princess Veronica have
any new suitors on the horizon? This is her second big breakup in a little
over a year. Is it possible the princess will now embrace spinsterhood?”
“Spinsterhood? This is twenty-first century Kastonia, not the set of
