Chapter 375: Too much of a coincidence
The room was quiet, the air felt heavy. Cedric’s nose picked up your scent immediately. His hold tightened slightly, Abrielle noticed but didn’t understand why
Kaiden’s chamber reeked of death. Was the king dead? He was still calm, it wasn’t like he lost anything but Kaiden’s death was obviously bad news. It was bad timing..
There can’t be an internal conflict for the throne at the same time their borders were being threatened. Darconia was over 70 percent of the continent. It was a large kingdom, some might consider an empire, and its sheer size threatens others.
The war was instigating a collaboration among the smaller nations, and rumours have it that there are traitors within Darconia.
This was not the time for the royal family to get into a bloodthirsty fight for the throne
"Guess who finally decided to show up?" Karissa sneered, receiving a stern look from Eleanor. Cedric didn’t even pay any attention to his stepmother, his mind was already trying to figure things out.
Did he have everything in place to be king and protect Abrielle? That was a question he wasn’t certain of. There was still the issue of the ladies of the moon. Too many coincidences at once.
"Is there a link between the incidents?" He asked himself.
Cedric approached an empty seat that he let Abrielle have. He was trying to understand the room’s atmosphere. His lips parted with his eyes on Eleanor who was too calm.
