Jaxon and Harper were supposed to be watching Prince Archer. They were not. Now they're tearing through playrooms, slipping on flour, rummaging in tulip beds, and crawling past the Queen herself — because if Queenie Skylar finds out, they'll be chucked over the walls. The crumpet is half-eaten. The tapestry has fallen on Jaxon. The moat has been checked. Hope is entirely gone.
The Royal War Room is their last hiding place. And that's where they find him. At the head of the table. Unimpressed. With a purple glitter pen. And foreign delegates due at ten.
- Royal chaos that escalates room by room, with perfect comic timing.
- Two bodyguards of spectacular cowardice — trembling, sweating, and absolutely terrible at their jobs.
- Prince Archer: very small, extremely self-important, and entirely unbothered by any of this.
- A final revelation that reframes everything — he wasn't lost at all. He was working.
