The attendants had given her some water, but before long, it had turned icy cold. Ashley’s legs began to tingle with numbness, and she had no choice but to stand and pace back and forth in the hall.
Finally, she heard voices outside. “The Empress has arrived.”
She quickly moved to the side, standing with her hands clasped in front of her, trying to suppress the anger bubbling in her chest:
Sophia entered with Rowena, and Ashley curtsied. “I greet Your Majesty, the Empress.”
Sophia glanced at her but didn’t acknowledge her greeting. She walked straight past Ashley, sitting down before calmly saying, “No need for formalities.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty,” Ashley said, and without waiting, she stepped back and sat down.
Barely had her bottom touched the chair when Rowena’s sharp voice rang out. “Ashley, the Empress did not grant you permission to sit.”
Ashley’s eyes flashed with anger, but she bit it back, standing again. “I apologize, Your Majesty, for my disrespect.”
Sophia wasted no time. “This isn’t the first time you’ve acted disrespectfully, is it?” she said, her tone icy. “I heard today that you were discussing court matters in front of the King. You know the rule–no interference from the harem in state affairs. Are you aware of this rule?”
Ashley tried to defend herself. “The King asked me, and I simply answered.”
Sophia scoffed. “If the King asks you, your answer should be, ‘I am foolish and know nothing.”
Ashley, feeling cornered, retorted, “You speak of the harem not meddling in politics, but surely, that’s not entirely true, is it? Isn’t Victoria part of the harem?”
Sophia’s lips twisted into a cold smile. “Ashley, who told you that Victoria is just a member of the harem?”
“Is she not?”
