"I am lady Scarlett of the You Shang Lao district" lady Scarlett whispers, still bowing.
Her heart feels just about to burst out. The king's gaze is so heated that she could go crazy from it.
"Where is the royal consort?"
"Your majesty she instructed me to tell you that she'll be with you in a minute, she was just getting ready"
The king's frowns deepened. When did Elara get the wings to start ordering people around?
And why does she have to change, he specifically wanted to eye fuck her in that dress.
"Well then, you can tell your consort to gather all of you for tea at the palace interiors"
He didn't wait for her reply. He simply passes through and heads for the dungeon of solace.
Even though he refuses to admit it, he was very disappointed that he didn't get a snarky comment, defiant gaze or even her eyes.
Lady Scarlett realises a very deep breath of relief once he left her orbit.
Now she truly understands why the consort told them to avoid him like a plague.
