Chapitre 126: Coming Down Hard

Upon her return to Kinshearth, Margaret greeted her at the portal. The handmaiden wanted nothing more than to give the Crown Princess an embrace. But she curtsied in respect instead. 

Hugging the Crown Princess would raise many alarms in the palace. 

At first, Margaret was secretly happy to see that Laina had returned with Kol only. But her happiness was fleeting, as she saw King Dante walk through the portal shortly after. 

"King Dante of Dracona, my apologies, we were not expecting your arrival," Margaret said as cordially as she could. 

Dante merely reciprocated with a smile, "My apologies for not informing sooner. Fret not, I am simply here to visit Crown Princess Laina, nothing more."

-That's exactly what I was afraid of.- Margaret thought to herself.
