Chapter 462: Bad news
"I heard rumours that they escaped to Heliosa," Callista informed Eleanor. They were in the queen’s study. Callista came to inform Eleanor about her recent findings.
Abrielle and Cedric fled to Heliosa, which was going to be a major issue for them. Draconia and Heliosa didn’t have a stable diplomatic relationship and not to forget that annoying crown prince.
Eleanor dropped the book she was going through containing details about Kaiden’s funeral. She sighed. A headache throbbed in her head.
"That will be a serious issue, Cedric might earn their support," Eleanor mentioned. Due to the distance between Draconia and Heliosa information didn’t exchange in real time. Eleanor and Callista were unaware of the fact that Abrielle had been recognised as a Heliosian princess.
"We can’t let him come between Lucian’s succession. Kaiden’s funeral will go as planned and Lucian’s succession would be sped up." Eleanor stated. Callista nodded in agreement.
Eleanor’s eyes fell on Callista. She didn’t like Callista as a good match for Lucian at first. Things had changed; she was now a Nightshade, and Eleanor saw something that others didn’t see in Callista.
She will be the perfect candidate to stand beside her only son. Lucian was like a shining light who refused to accept the darkness around, but with Callista, she is assured he would be fine
"How is Lucian doing these days?" Eleanor asked.
"He has been doing well. He spends most of his days training." She answered then paused.
"Your majesty, I wonder, do you plan on honouring Lucian’s agreement with Alfonso? Keeping Alfonso alive is leaving a potential threat. " Callista asked. Alfonso and Lucian got into an unexpected alliance which didn’t put Callista at peace.
