The Crown's Seduction

Chapter 429: Oranges

Chapter 429: Oranges

Just as Dani had anticipated, false rumors began to circulate, which only got wilder and wilder as people began exaggerating and blaming the tragedy that happened in the province of Norman on Mineah and her being cursed. In response, Laura did her best to spread the truth to counteract them. At that point, the only way to dispel the false rumors was to take serious action. And with Nikolai's orders to capture and imprison anyone who spread false rumors and tarnished Mineah's name, the matter was finally put under control without too much effort. By the time she was done with her responsibilities, Dani felt drained and exhausted. Still, she was glad that Mineah finally woke up. 

With a yawn, she slowly made her way to the Queen's bedchamber. Walking down the hallway, she saw Krisha coming in from the other side. It would seem that they were all called in by the Queen to discuss something important, so Zaila was probably already inside since she was the one monitoring the Queen's health.

"You look very tired," Krisha commented as she approached her. 

"Look who's talking, Dani retorted."

"What can I say? A lot of things happened in a very short amount of time recently," Krisha chuckled as she replied. "Anyway, aren't you curious to know how our Queen manages to keep that divine dagger inside her body? Do you really think that it's because of the divine dagger that she managed to turn all those weapons into divine weapons? Why do I feel that something in her is divine, and that…"

"Let's not speculate, Krisha," Dani reminded her. "Wait for our Queen to tell us everything once the time is right." 

Dani could feel how anxious Krisha was from where she stood. She wanted to get definitive answers too, but she was trying her best to assess the situation and do what was best for Mineah. She was confident that their Queen wouldn't keep them in the dark like this unless there was a valid reason for it.
