Kidnapped and Rejected – The Return of Alpha’s Luna by Moon Claw

Chapter 206

People exchanged looks in silence.

“There is a problem,” said a deep voice from the crowd.

A middle–aged man stood up from the long table in the middle. He had dark curly hair and a thick beard, dressed in a grey cloak.

“And that problem is?” Janet asked.

“You are not mated to the King yet. You haven’t had a proper ceremony. Hence, you are not qualified to sit on the Queen’s seat,” said the man.

A faint smile appeared on Janet’s lips, “What is your name?”

“…Elder Lamonte from the House of Shadow, my lady.”

“OK then, Elder Lamonte. The decent thing for you to do is to arrange a seat for me before I arrive, instead of accusing me of sitting in the wrong seat when I can’t find a single place to dine in this large dining hall. Don’t you agree?”

Elder Lamonte cleared his throat, awkwardly.

“My apology, Lady Janet.” he said, “I will have the servants arrange a seat for you right away. So please leave the King’s seat.”

“Don’t bother.”

Janet let out a cold laugh.

“I don’t feel like moving right now. Tonight, I am sitting right where I am.”

People gasped.

The dining hall erupted. There was an outbreak of mutterings and boos.

“It is not your call to make!” Elder Lamonte said loudly over the noise, “If you keep acting like this, I am going to ask the guards to forcefully remove you from this dining hall-”

Just then, the massive double door of the hall swung open with a cracking noise.

A slim figure gracefully made her way into the room.

“Don’t do that, father. Don’t ask Lady Janet to leave,” said this newcomer in a sweet

voice.

Janet looked over–it was Agnes.

Elder Lamonte looked stunned, “But Agnes, sweetheart-”

“Lady Janet is new to our world. We should welcome her warmly instead of forcing our rules upon her. And I am sure Westin won’t mind his future wife taking his seat for just one night.”

Agnes’s voice was soft and gentle, but it easily quieted down the entire hall.

People seemed to respect her greatly.

“But she just smashed you with a jug earlier today. She doesn’t deserve your kindness…” muttered a girl.

Agnes smiled, “That was an accident. I have forgiven Lady Janet already. Now, why don’t we raise our glasses together and toast to our future Queen?”
