Synopsis

“And down here, there's no one to stop me," he purred, taking another reckless step toward me.Then his lips were on mine. They crashed to me like waves on the beach, and I lapped him up hungrily."I'm sorry," I breathed hoarsely.And then I ran.***Genevieve worked her entire life to get the position she holds now–head of security for the Duchess of Reyna. She wanted to leave a life of poverty behind her, and she did. The Duchess is set to be married off to a playboy prince and Genevieve must accompany her to the new country. What she never expected was to like the prince. She doesn’t want to betray her country, her duchess, or herself, but she can’t help it. When Genevieve uncovers a plot against Prince Rowan, she knows she has to act. She must decide if her loyalty to her country is worth more than the love she has for a prince she just met. Prince Rowan’s Treasonous Love is created by Amelie Bergen, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 1 : Landing in Boldova

*Genevieve*The clouds were painted orange, even from this high up. The wings of the plane stretched like open arms, welcoming the ground beneath us as we started our descent. I turned to look at Aurora as she peered out the plane window. Her golden hair fell in waves over her shoulders, and her brilliant blue eyes lit up with a childlike wonder as she took in the scenery of the island below."It's beautiful, Genevieve," she breathed, turning her perfect face to look me fully in the eyes."I think we'll be happy here," I told her, ignoring the pit in my stomach.The Duchess was the kind of beauty that men go to war for–a perfect figure, a perfect face, a perfect personality. She never said a wrong word, and she was clearly born to play the role of a royal.We were opposites, I supposed. Her blonde hair was a bright contrast to my straight, black hair. Her fair skin and rosy cheeks made my tan skin and ruddy cheeks seem darker. Her sapphire blue eyes sparkled, making my dark b...

Chapter 2 : Announcements
The view from my room included a nearly panoramic view of the ocean. I watched a pod of dolphins surface just off the coast, and I let myself enjoy it for a moment. Duty took priority over pleasure at all times, so it was nice to have a rare moment of peace to myself.But that was all it was, a moment. I needed to decide if I should say anything to Aurora about Prince Rowan's flirtations, and I needed to decide quickly. I was getting ready for the state dinner tonight, and I only had a limited amount of time before I had to go get Aurora.The gown I would wear tonight had been chosen for me, one with a slit up one side so that I could easily access a holster on my thigh where my gun would be kept. There were several other hidden weapons within the dress and under the dress, and I felt as if I were suiting up for battle rather than getting ready for a state dinner. At some point, I expected this feeling of strangeness to wear off, this otherworldly feeling as I prepared to do my job

Chapter 3 : Disappointment
*Rowan*"Let me walk you back to your room. I've really enjoyed getting to know you tonight. I'm looking forward to seeing you more tomorrow." I took Aurora by the hand and stood, hoping she would do the same."Thank you," she said, smiling demurely. Her small hand tightened in mine, and she got to her feet.Genevieve stood instantly, a shadow to Aurora. I tried to smother my smile, but I couldn't. She thought I was some sort of risk to her Duchess. I was a risk to no one. I could hardly stand up to my own pathetic parents.I said nothing to Genevieve as we left the dining hall, instead focusing on my fiancée."Was your room to your liking?" I asked."It's perfect," Aurora gushed. "I've never stayed anywhere so fine in all my life.""I'm glad it meets your standards. After the wedding, we can both move into that room, or you can move into mine. Whatever suits you better," I offered.I considered our quickly approaching wedding. I ignored the wave of nausea that washed t

Chapter 4 : Beach Day
*Genevieve*My alarm went off just before sunrise. I climbed out of bed and debated what a captain of the guard should wear on someone else's date to the beach. I had taken the time last night to put away all of my clothes in the dresser drawers. I was here for the long haul, there was no need to be living out of suitcases. I opened the drawers and stared down at my options.It was hot, but not unbearably so. I grabbed my cargo pants, ensuring I could store everything I'd need for the day in the pockets. I hated the idea of wearing long pants and boots to the beach, but it was the most appropriate attire for the day. My job wasn't to be comfortable, it was to keep Aurora safe.Getting changed for the day, I regarded myself in the mirror. I pulled my hair back into a tight bun. Selfishly, I took a moment to apply just a little makeup, something to accent my features and keep me from looking so washed out. Maybe it was the pressure I felt from being around Aurora all the time, but

Chapter 5 : Friendly Fire
*Rowan*Sleep eluded me. I tossed and turned most of the night. I couldn't get any rest, and so when the sun finally threatened to rise over the horizon, I was exhausted. I had work to attend to though, so I needed to get going. Maybe exercising would help me to feel more awake.I started to get ready, looking for my gym shoes in the pile of discarded shoes next to my balcony doors.Something about Aurora didn't sit right with me. I wasn't sure what it was that was making me uneasy. She was sweet, with the ability to make conversation out of anything. I didn't think there was anyone in the world who she couldn't befriend. She was a perfect politician and would make an excellent queen someday.However, something still felt off about the whole situation. I chalked it up to the fact that it was an arranged marriage and so neither of us truly had a choice in the situation. Maybe it was that lack of freedom that had me on edge. That made sense, I wasn't used to being optionless ofte

Chapter 6 : Reflections
*Aurora*The mirror was large, well-lit, and edged in a gold frame. I sat on the little embroidered stool and brushed through my hair, getting ready for the evening. Sometimes, I considered cutting it all off. Long blonde waves that I was constantly washing, styling, brushing, or taking care of. It was a chore. My mother had taught me that long hair was some kind of virtue. I didn't know if I agreed. It seemed like a burden. I was tired. I shouldn't have been tired, I had hardly had to lift a finger since getting here, but I was.Using my pinky finger, I added a little concealer under my eyes. Rowan was so effortlessly handsome, I didn't want him to think ill of me for getting worn so quickly. Makeup was the war paint of the modern world. A person could hide, exaggerate, or alter whatever they needed to become whoever they needed. War paint or armor, maybe. It was just as much protection as it was a disguise. Not that I needed a disguise, not yet at least.It wasn't that the t

Chapter 7 : Self Defense
*Genevieve*Enough days had gone by that everything started feeling routine. I woke up before the sun rose to get my workout done, followed by breakfast, and then whatever the king and queen had on the schedule for the happy couple.Rowan found himself in the gym in the early mornings more days than not. I was starting to look forward to seeing him there. I knew it was wrong, but as long as I didn't do anything more than appreciate the early morning banter, I assumed it was harmless.Today, there was some sort of luncheon on the schedule. I was getting tired of the constant meals in front of what felt like hundreds of delegates. Today, at least, I was able to wear my regular uniform instead of a silly cocktail dress.I had a gap in time between breakfast and escorting Aurora. She had taken to spending more and more time in her room, and she didn't need me for that. Instead, I stood outside her door and kept a watchful eye.There had been a time a few years ago when I had stoo

Chapter 8 : Lack of Progress
*Rowan*"Alright, let's get this over with. I've got Chef Michael working on a roast that I'm rather excited to sample." My father leaned back in his seat, dragging a pudgy finger across the conference table.I hated these meetings. They were a waste of time because my parents never seemed to care about actually doing anything about the plight of our economy. The budget meetings lasted forever, and did nothing but lead to more discontent. I worried that the court would get sick of my parents' apathy before too long. The consequences of that could be deadly."It seems that our GDP has dropped again, for the tenth consecutive year," the financial minister announced.He clicked to start a PowerPoint on the large screen at the front of the room. It pulled up a screen with a graph, clearly showing a sharp decline as every year progressed.The conference room was quiet as everyone stared at the information. It wasn't a surprise. It was just confirmation of years of continual failur

Chapter 9 : Making Bets
*Genevieve*Once again, I woke up before my alarm clock. This morning, there was a jolt of excitement to accompany the dreamy sensation of coming back to consciousness. I climbed out of bed and changed into gym clothes. Usually, I put my uniform on to start with, but I was going to push myself twice as hard as usual today, and I didn't want to sweat through my clothes for the day before it had even started.It was the day of our bet. Today, Rowan would be attempting to keep up with my workout, and I just knew I would be able to surprise him. He'd already seen bits and pieces of what I was really capable of, but today, I was going all out. I'd been taking it easy since coming to Boldova. There were no true threats to Aurora, and after traveling and the packed social schedule, I was tired enough to not want to push myself.Today was a different story.I was practically skipping on my way down to the gym. Rowan was already down there, chugging a bottle of water."The last thing

Chapter 10 : Mistakes
I practically floated through the rest of the day. I didn't know why I felt so over the moon, but I was proud that I had beaten Rowan. And that I wouldn't have to suffer through his workout. I'd seen what sort of weights he liked to lift, and I wasn't sure I could lift that heavy. I'd never be willing to admit that to him, or anyone for that matter.It was getting harder and harder to watch him flirt with Aurora during the day. Aurora seemed to be growing used to the attention, less and less impressed with him, and that made it harder. She was still just as kind and thoughtful, she just didn't blush and giggle at him the way she did when we first arrived. Her attention seemed divided recently.That had me concerned. I didn't like it when she worried over something. There were plenty of things I couldn't do anything about, but if she was worried about something political or something that had to do with her physical safety, I could definitely help with that.I stood outside of her
