The room looked abandoned — as expected, since no one had used it for years. It wasn't Jhen's room anymore.
She had left her job at the royal palace a long time ago. Countless others had come and gone, using the room throughout the years.
But Jhen was convinced that no one had ever discovered where she hid the castle map. According to her, the cleaning staff never bothered moving furniture around, so hiding it behind the drawer had been, in her words, the perfect choice.
William wasn't buying it. To him, it was an obvious hiding spot. No way no one had noticed it.
Still, he stepped into the room, walked straight to the drawer, and pushed it aside.
To his surprise… the map was there. Old, dusty, but perfectly intact.
"No fucking way no one saw this," he muttered. "Are people seriously this lazy?"
Behind the drawer, the floor was covered in dust, cobwebs, and dead bugs — clear signs that no one had bothered cleaning back there for years.
