章節 126: Sneaking out... #19

Adrian arrived at Queen Alannah's private quarters, still pondering the cryptic words she had shared earlier during the tour. When he arrived at her chambers, two guards stationed outside the door bowed respectfully before letting him pass. 

The door open, revealing a room bathed in the warm glow of candlelight. Inside, Queen Alannah sat near her vanity, her back to him, her reflection captured in the ornate mirror. She looked regal and serene, but the atmosphere was thick with unspoken tension.

"Adrian," she said without turning around. "Thank you for coming. I trust you're finding Zarpha to your liking?"

Adrian stepped further into the room, closing the door behind him. "It's been interesting, Your Majesty," he replied.
