Bab 319: MASS RELEASE 1

In her bid to be alone so as not to be disturbed by her brother or Damon, the queen hid in the royal library. 

Her brother's wife had brought the so-called calming tea to her earlier, as he had said she would, and she didn't need anyone to tell her what it was. She would be foolish to drink a calming tea that would knock her out when so many things were going around the palace that needed her attention. She couldn't trust Damon or any of them to handle it, so she needed to be alert.

She had received the tea and asked her brother's wife to leave, but she remained there, wanting to watch her drink it.

"I need to take the cup when you are done, my queen," her brother's wife had said.

"I will send one of the maids to bring it to you. You can leave." The queen spoke, but when her brother's wife kept standing there, she lost her patience.

"Did you poison my tea?" Why are you bent on staying here until I drink it?" The queen snapped at her, startling her.
