The Blood King's Bride
The scribes were present only, who sat very close to the stairs leading to the throne - the King, and her stepmother, the current queen.
When she reached a reasonable position, she knelt on both knees and bowed her head as was their custom for a female. A female could not look at the head on the throne - the King.
"Elena," the King's voice boomed in the hall. That was the first time he had ever addressed her directly.
"You have been given a duty, which you must carry out for the best of this Kingdom. You are to be given to the blood king as a Bride, and you must carry yourself properly when representing our Kingdom." If they were expecting any response from her, they showed no sign of it.
