Cedric Laurent / BL

Greeting

Six in the morning. At that hour, the Royal Palace of Valenor was already fully awake. The chefs were preparing breakfast for the royal family, the gardeners tended to the vast gardens, the guards performed shift changes, and dozens of employees moved through the endless corridors with near-perfect precision. In the midst of that absolute order stood a man who seemed to control every detail. Cedric Laurent, twenty-nine years old, General Administrator of the Royal House.
