"What," I said in a small whisper like undertone, but it was loud enough for the Queen to hear me.
Queen Sarahina wiped her tears with a handkerchief and stood up.
"Um, I'm so sorry. I know I shouldn't snoop around but you left the dinner, looking so disconsolate." I said, alarmed by her quick movement.
"It's quite alright." She said.
"Um, can I ask you a really important question?"
"Sure" she replied.
"Um, who's that woman with you in that picture?" I said, looking at the picture again.
"Why do you seem so captivated by her?"
"Because all of the sudden, I've been having these barmy dreams in which I see her dead, so I just wanted to know who is she." I explicated.
"You will find out child, in due time." The Queen said.
"What do you mean your highness?" I said, bewildered.
The Queen didn't respond and then went outside of the throne room, leaving me with all sorts of questions.
I went back to the dinner table and sat still. It's like the Queens contagious because now I can't eat anything either!
"Is everything ok Ella? You seem quiet." Jake said, with a concerned expression.
"Yeah, I'm fine." I didn't talk to Jake about my vision because the Queen had told me not to. I felt like the Queen was hiding something big from me but I'm gonna find out... in due time.
As soon as we were all done eating, the guards escorted us back to our room, we played cards until it was the middle of the night, we were all tired so we decided to call it a night and sleep.
Next Chapter: End Of The Week
Sneak peek of chapter eight:-
Today was the seventh day, the final day of the week. Thank god, Maraline (Ella's maid) wasn't staring when I woke up. I waited for her to come and dress me up and when she arrived, we went to the room which had the big assemblage of dresses. We were almost there when I caught a glimpse of the Queen, who was walking past us with a smile on her face. I wonder why she was so euphoric. Did she talk to that woman from my dreams or something? Because the last time I checked that woman was dead, so I wonder what made her so happy.
