It appears the king is unaware of the queen's sinister plot against the thirteen-year-old orphans, as she wants to ensure her child becomes rightful heir to the throne. <p/> Avery weighs the pros and cons of seeking an audience with the king while the castle is dealt a heavy blow; but Avery decides the risk is worth taking, and she steps out of the shadows for the first time since entering the castle walls. <p/> When Avery is offered the opportunity of a lifetime, will she choose a life free from hardship within the castle walls . . . or her family and the home she left behind?
