Chapter 260: Another Conspiracy
**************
Chapter 260
When they finally left the bed, Era sat alone in her opulent chambers with Vidor gone to tend to his kingly duties, leaving her alone to contemplate the events of the day.
She did not bother about this, seeing as it gave her the opportunity to read the letter she had picked up.
Her heart pounded with a mix of anticipation and trepidation. She gazed out of the large window, watching as the sun began to set, casting a warm golden glow across the land.
Her mind raced with conflicting emotions, wondering if she held a secret that could shatter the fragile peace that existed within the palace walls.
With trembling hands, Era reached into the folds of her elegant gown and retrieved a folded piece of parchment, its edges worn and creased.
It had been concealed against her body, pressed close to her heart, throughout her time with Vidor before her naughty husband discarded her clothes.
As she carefully unfolded the paper, her eyes widened in disbelief.
The words on the parchment revealed a dark conspiracy, a plot to undermine the kingdom’s stability and jeopardize the lives of those she held dear.
Her breath caught in her throat as she reread the lines written on the paper.
"No, this is not good. There’s another conspiracy. I must figure this out for Vidor and help him this time," she said in a whisper.
