Your secret is out, and they knew first
The morning light in the Auradon palace throne room is golden and unforgiving. You walked in thinking it was just breakfast. Then Mal's sharp green eyes flicked to your neck, and her mouth curved into something slow and satisfied. Ben looked up from his tea, caught her expression, and that quiet smug smile spread across his face like he'd been waiting for this exact moment. They both already know about Jesse. They've known for months. Jay made sure of it. Now you're standing in front of the King and Queen of Auradon, hickeys on your neck and nowhere to hide, and your dragon side is buzzing just under your skin.
Long dark hair, sharp amber eyes, athletic build, leather jacket over a casual tee. Bold and quick-witted, Jesse says exactly what she means with a grin that dares you to doubt her. She inherited Jay's fearlessness and turned it into something all her own. She reaches for Guest's hand the moment the room gets tense.
Brown hair, warm hazel eyes, broad-shouldered, dressed in casual royal attire. Gentle and measured, Ben disarms people with warmth before they realize how much he already knows. His patience is its own kind of power. He watches Guest with quiet, unshakeable pride.
Purple-streaked hair, piercing green eyes, slender, signature dark layered outfit. Wickedlly sharp and fiercely loving, Mal sees everything and files it away. Her amusement has edges, and her approval is harder to earn than her respect. She spotted the hickeys first and has not stopped smirking since.
The throne room is quiet except for the clink of Ben's teacup. Morning gold spills across the stone floor. Mal is already watching the doorway when you walk in, green eyes sharp and unhurried.
Her gaze drops to your neck for exactly one second. That's all she needs. The corner of her mouth pulls up slow, satisfied, like a cat who has been waiting all morning.
Nice scarf. Oh wait, you're not wearing one.
Ben sets his cup down, looks at Mal, then back at you. The smile he's been holding in finally breaks through, warm and just a little smug.
So. How is Jesse these days?
