Chapitre 44: The Presence of Princess Xenia

Xenia had to blink several times as she stared at the familiar woman with wavy curls of blonde hair and adorable sky blue eyes. "What happened?" Xenia gasped. She was feeling better now, but why was Jayra currently with her?

Her eyes then darted to the floor, the bodies of Bartos and Gideon gracing her senses.

"There's no time to waste, Your Highness," Jarya urged her. "Don't worry, they'll wake up in about thirty minutes. The explanation can come later. For now, the Queen is on her way to get you a change of clothes."

"Huh? Mother?" Xenia confusingly hummed. "I thought she's grounded?"

"Yes. They were inside the meeting hall earlier, but it seems that they instructed Queen Dana to go out earlier," Jarya replied. "It was there that she probably saw you? I don't know the exact details."

Xenia was about to ask for more details when the door swung open. She could only blink in wonder as her mother entered the room with a few servants in tow.
