Chapter 321: Family (2)
Selene walked around the home, which was decorated by servants who had left days before they arrived, so Selene’s family would not be seen.
Selene stopped to look at a portrait she had done with Xavier weeks before, so they could have something to remember this time.
"Agnes, how much do you think the world could change?" Selene asked, curious about the future.
"I do not know. Maybe there will be no need for a king or a queen. Maybe no more humans will be in town, or there will be fewer vampires walking around. I am looking forward to seeing what changes there will be," Agnes replied.
Selene walked away from the portrait to see the rest of the house. "I am looking forward to it as well. The tension between humans and vampires is getting better thanks to the king. I was worried at first, but Michael is a good king."
"He is a good king since he doesn’t send for Lord Blackthorn to go to the palace, and I have heard that the queen is lovely. Is it true that the palace isn’t taking her arrival well still because she is a mixed-blood?" Agnes asked, hoping it wasn’t so.
"That is what Xavier has told me, but the fact that the queen is not a pureblood has made mixed-bloods feel better, and she has been working hard to help the humans and vampires coexist again. The court will never be happy," Selene concluded.
From what Selene heard from Xavier, it seemed that the court would prefer a king who ruined the kingdom.
"How long will it take before he arrives with my family?" Selene asked, quickly growing bored.
