Chương 240: Waiting For Draven

With each passing minute, Ember became more restless inside her chamber, sometimes glancing out the window, sometimes sitting on her bed, even pacing back and forth, trying to wait for time to go by.

Yet upon seeing that darkness had completely settled outside, she could no longer control herself from leaving her bedchamber to go in the direction of the southeast wing of the palace. The entire hallway was lit up with lamps, and in the absolute silence of the empty passage, she could even hear her own heartbeats.

"Y-Your Majesty, are you inside?"

There was no response. She waited for a while before opening the door. She looked inside the empty chamber which was lit up with lamps.
