Chapter 48: Emmah’s carefully crafted story.

Sigrid took a deep breath, she shifted her gaze from Roland to Emmah. Was this something they had discussed before, the medal of protection against death? It had not been mentioned anywhere in the novel, that such a request had been made, Roland had straight away asked for king Raff’s permission to take Emmah as a secondary wife.

Had things changed because she had removed the option of Roland having a secondary wife?

While she was racking her mind for a way to stop the king from granting Emmah a death free medal, the nobles loudly debated on Roland’s request.

"She is a commoner, of what use would she have such a medal?"

"A noble title! how ambitious of her."

"Obviously something must be going on between them, he might as well ask for her to be named a princess."

"This cannot be done, absolutely not, if the king is going to hand them out like sweets then I want one for my family as well."

Soon, the king and queen were frowning, the general consensus that seemed to be shared by all the nobles was no. Many of them were glancing at Roland with unfiltered ridicule in their eyes. The crown prince had overshadowed his own victorious return by making a stupid request and queen Maurelia was unwilling to watch what was certain to a scandal ruin her son’s accomplishment.
