I missed the sheet. “When someone attacks a kingdom, you can’t win by playing chess or by answering a few questions. You shall fight which you can’t, and I can. Being a warrior is important. I am sorry.”“You are right. Sera, prepare my bath.” I said looking at her before stepping aside from them and walking to my chamber. Each word that Emerson said ringed in my head as a servant stripped me out of the muddy clothes I was wearing.“My lady.” Sera called to make me look at her. She looked panicked and kept her eyes on my face but didn’t say anything. When she realized I didn’t understand what she was trying to say, she took a mirror and held it in front of me.

“Your Majesty, thank you for the praise but there are women who are more beautiful than me.” I said while walking beside him. I looked at him from the corner of my eye and saw him smiling. “I am sire you shall find a better queen than me.”He stopped walking and kept his eyes on me. “I might.” Is this working? “But they won’t be you and I want only you.
