Chapter 205

Agnes’s body trembled on the ground,

She stared at Janet as though she was some sort of a monster.

“Agnes!”

Westin rushed to help Agnes up. He touched her shoulder to make sure that she didn’t have a broken bone and then cried out to the others, “Get Lady Agnes to the medical room!”

Servants rushed over, along with the maid that Janet met in Blood Moon Pack, Fatima.

“It is just a tradition-”

“If you want me to respect your tradition, you will first learn to respect me, your future Queen.”

The muttering crowd lapsed into silence.
