Chapter 120: Nobody slaps me.
Not surprising, in the night after the party was broken up and everyone gone, Sigrid was summoned by the queen to her chambers. When she arrived, she was led into the queen’s bedroom directly.
The queen was sitting on a chair in front of a vanity mirror, one of her maids was drying her hair and two were massaging her arms. Another was massaging her feet, giving her the standard treatment that she always enjoyed before going to sleep.
When Sigrid’s arrival was announced, she sent away the maids and in the bedroom, only two people remained, a queen and a princess.
"Good evening your highness." Sigrid curtsied.
The queen had no smile for Sigrid, only cold eyes which conveyed the anger that she had been holding inside all night. She stood up and slowly walked towards Sigrid, stopping when she was only a small distance between them.
Sigrid’s nose twitched as the faint smell of lavender from the queen’s body hit her nostrils. Inside, she nearly laughed. The queen was now using the same oil or perfume Rina used to use. Was it something she had done deliberately?
"How dare you?" the queen straightened her shoulders as she questioned Sigrid. "How dare you bring another whore into my castle without my permission?"
Sigrid was somewhat confused, the queen had been onboard with the plan of getting Rina out of the way and giving the king a new secondary consort.
"Watch out!" Cosmos’s voice sounded in her head.
