In a house of seven women, it wasn’t exactly curious that Lizzie was unable to find any type of privacy at any time of day. She had gratefully accepted her mother’s offer to share quarters, leaving the younger five to split across two bed rooms, though it did mean squeezing into the only room even remotely available in the cramped terrace house. She was just grateful that unlike at Christmas time, she was able to seep in an actual bed this time, even if it did mean sharing with her mum. Beth Woodville had carved out a sliver of her overstuffed wardrobe to accommodate her daughter, and had cleared a spot on the dresser just below the mirror for Lizzie to arrange her beauty products and personal belongings.
So, really, it was far from surprising that, after Mary had initially answered the phone, Lizzie had chosen to take her rather unexpected call in the minuscule garden, hemmed in on all sides by a timeworn brick wall and not exactly out of earshot of the kitchen window. She’d parked herself on the shallow steps that led down from the patio area to the scraggly yard, and shrugged off her red cardigan.

Arthur longed for home, the rolling hills, unspoiled green. He did not wish to die in exile, as his father had done, and leave his family to themselves: caught up in the mad fury of desire. He would not die as his father had, no. He would return. He would return to England and reclaim his birthright as King Arthur II of England. Perkin Warbeck had taken their home, but he could not have it. Arthur would see to that.
