  “I just keep thinking I should’ve died instead—instead of Seren, instead of the prince. It should’ve been me.” Her voice wobbled. “The whole kingdom missed them; they still miss them. The king was never the same after he lost his son; some say he would still be alive today if the prince hadn’t been killed. But me—”

  “I would miss you,” I interrupted.

  She pushed her palm against one of her eyes to wipe away the coming tears. “We wouldn’t have met.”

  “Then there would be a hole where you should have been, and I would miss whatever was supposed to fill it.”
