There are two of those at Royal Elite School, also known as RES. According to Dad — sorry, Father — I’m to stay away from anything with the last name King. When I became Lord Henry Clifford’s ‘public’ daughter, he had two rules for me: You will not disgrace the Clifford surname. You will stay away from the King surname. Ordinarily, I wouldn’t listen, but the two kings of the school represent everything I loathe. Unrestrained power. Reckless behaviour. Corrupted wealth.
