Chapter 50: Bad luck following him

All the women waited for the Queen since she should be standing first in the line being the bride's mother.

"Where is the Queen hiding?" One of the King's concubines quipped, adjusting her choker.

"Sheesh, talk about that lazy woman! Can't she at least be fast today?" Exclaimed one of the King's sassy sisters, throwing some playful shade since Sabrina was not here. "No wonder she is starting to look like a pudgy pumpkin!" She giggled.

The other women burst out into laughter.

Inside the King's chamber, Sabrina impatiently tapped her foot on the floor. King Nolan's stern command to the guard was followed by a reassuring glance at his wife. "Don't worry, Sabrina. The guards are already on the hunt, and I have dispatched Trevis to find him as well,"

"What business could he possibly have at this moment, my lord? He was supposed to be at the palace gate to greet his brother-in-law," Sabrina seethed, her chubby cheeks flushed red, thanks to the layers of makeup.
