Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 985

Lisandra had plans of her own for when she returned home, so she could not afford to back down on the border issue. If she did, all that she had worked for would be in jeopardy, and the support of the people would slip from her grasp.

This outcome was favorable for both kingdoms.

The day after the treaty was signed, the Westhaven envoys entered the palace to bid their farewells. Salvador had intended to host a farewell banquet for them, but Lisandra's determination to return home immediately left him with no choice but to agree to her wishes. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Justice had already placed Aurora in a prison cart and sent her to Concord Lodge.

When she saw that there was no sign of Dominic, panic surged through her.

"Why is it just me? Where is Dominic? Doesn't he need to take responsibility too?" she shouted loudly.

Lonnie quickly gagged her mouth and passed her over to Leroy.

It was the first time the Westhaven envoys had seen Aurora since entering the capital. The anger in their eyes was so fierce it seemed like it could burn her to the ground.

Aurora struggled in the prison cart, trying to spot Barrett amidst the crowd, but there was no sign of him. Outside the hall, a long procession stretched before her, with the Capital Guard sending the group off. Even Carissa and Rafael were present, but Barrett was nowhere to be found.

She couldn't call out or struggle to free herself, nor could she even lift her head. The cart was uncomfortable to sit in, and standing was impossible. It reminded her of when she had trapped Arthur in an iron cage and taunted him with arrows.
