The Princess And The Demon Chapter Twenty Four: Sisters
Sara stared at the beautiful redheaded princess with wide terrified eyes, her face was drained from blood once she heard her say those words.She was meeting her actual sister for the first time.“Bring her a cup of water.” The princess said and stepped forward towards the pale girl, looking genuinely worried, at first she was only doing her diplomatic duty as a princess by reassuring and looking after all the noble guests while the matter was being investigated, it was not confirmed yet but the darkness that took over was probably of a demonic origin, and for that to happen in the royal castle during the coronation was a big blow to the Yoren name and the whole kingdom’s reputation.
