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.

Together they supported Agnes’s delicate body.

“She didn’t know about our tradition…I should have warned her before I poured the water…it was entirely my fault,” she sobbed.

Westin comforted her and promised her that he would come over and check on her later.

“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.
