To avoid such misunderstanding it would help if you used the correct terminology.

The term "heir to the throne" is understood by most people who know anything about Royal matters to be THE heir to the throne.

If you are referring to others with succession rights, the usual expression is "in the line of succession".

Rather than accusing others of misreading your quote it would be better if the facts were presented correctly in the first place.
