Summary
Neil was never supposed to find out about their involvement with Steve and of course the man proves what a monster he is when he does.

"What do you think you're doing here?"
Eddie does not get the chance to say as she barrels on pushing into his space to poke him in the chest. “No! This is all yours and the prince's fault!” Her voice raises an octave and for a brief moment they both glance at Steve but he does not stir, does not twitch. “The king never would have taken a second look at my baby if you two hadn't touched him.” Eddie’s stomach sinks, he was never supposed to find out about Steve. “Was it worth it? Calling the king out like that."
"It's my job." Eddie's voice comes out as a strained whisper.
"That wasn't what I asked.” She raises her voice again, poking him in the chest harder. “Surely you've been here long enough to know what a cruel man he is. You knew saying those things would enrage him. You knew it would be taken out on someone other than you."
