The Crown's Seduction

Chapter 299: Ezme

Chapter 299: Ezme

It's been a long day since they arrived at Valcrez. Well, at least that was what Ezme thought as she shifted back to her human form with Atlas beside her. She really didn't want to do this, if she was being honest, but her brother Nikolai had been bugging her for long enough that she finally decided to just go and get things over with if only so that her brother could finally shut up about her not bringing her fiance to see their mother.

It was these thoughts that remained in her mind as they made their way inside the castle. Making their way to the throne room, she almost prepared herself for a scolding before she remembered that they weren't going to see the Queen Mother yet. No, they had to see her brother dearest first to show some courtesy.

"So this is Valcrez castle," Atlas remarked as they both stood in front of the throne room. "It's…"

"The same as any other castle, I know," Ezme scoffed. "Look, if you're not comfortable with anything, just let me do the talking. I can steer us both if need be."

Atlas simply nodded, and Ezme could only hold her sigh as she finally signaled the guards to let them in. Sure enough, Nikolai was in his high chair with Mineah by his side. It would've been daunting if she hadn't anticipated this exact sight before coming here.
