No, actually, Primrose had stolen his bedroom key.
It wasn't even that hard.
Unlike the Queen's chamber, Edmund's room wasn't guarded by soldiers because who in their right mind would dare sneak into the Beast King's chambers and risk disturbing his sleep?
Even when Edmund wasn't there, only the maids assigned to clean his room had the courage to enter. The rest of the palace staff would rather take a longer route than walk past his bedroom door.
But why?
Primrose hadn't felt anything unusual when she snuck into Edmund's room in broad daylight and took his key.
"Your Majesty, are you sure you don't want to visit His Majesty's chambers tonight?"
Leah's eyes locked onto the golden key in Primrose's hand, as if she were staring at her most precious prey.
[If I steal this key from her, I could sneak into His Majesty's chambers.]
[Didn't she say he'd be happy if I did?]
