TIME FLEW BY IN A BIUR as the palser grew increasingly freed with each passing day. The delegation from Narva was set to arrive tomorrow, and every member of the royal household was frantically prepari the their arrival. The maids scurried about, ensuring every inch of the palace was spotless and beautifully adorned the gardeners worked tirelessly to maintain the garden and grounds in perfect condition.
While everyone around her was busy with their own tasks, Helg was stuck in her study attending to matters related to the charity school. It was the only thing she could do at the moment because tomorrow, she would feign illness and isolate herself in her bedroom in order to avoid the Lycan King "Are you starting to feel bored?" Sierra's question caught Helga off guard, making her look at her in surprise.
"I don't know if boredom is the right term for it, but I feel restless like I should be doing something more proactive," she admitted, letting out a sigh and resting her back against the sofa At this rate, I may end up really sick."
"Why not go for a walk today? Maybe invite my brother along and see what kind of fun you can find." Sierra suggested, "The delegation of Narva might stay here in the palace for a week, that means you'll be staying inside the chambers all week long" "She's
sright, Your Majesty. You have a whole day to indulge yourself before their arrival. Take advantage of this chance to relax and enjoy some well-deserved fun." Portia agreed because she understood the immense stress that Helga must have been under in the past few days. Ever since the Alpha King punished the beta and Alpha of the Silver pack, Helga had never stepped outside the palace again. And her safety was being closely monitored by royal guards, just like when she was previously attacked. would love to do that, but I'm sure Siegren will be occupied since it's the last day of preparations." Helga said. "Should I just help you guys? I mean. is there anything I can do last minute to help you?"
"The main hall has been fully decorated for the banquet tomorrow evening, and everything is in order now. The head maid and butler were supervising the preparations, which is why we've here with you." Sierra flashed a smile before getting up from her seat and walking towards her sister-in-law, who stared back at her with a puzzled expressuon on her face. "In case you're unsure about hanging out with my brother, why don't just the three of us go shopping together today?"
Sierra's eyes flickered from Portia to Helga, her mind racing with a bold and possibly foolish idea. She knew it was completely inappropriate, especially considering the high stakes of tomorrow's event. But right now, all she could think about was making the Queen smile and easing her restless mind. "Hmm, all right, but I'll go ask your brother first." A faint smile graced Helga's lipas, she slowly rose to her feet. She knew that Siegren would most likely forbid her from venturing outside the palace walls until Gabriel was found, and although she longed to explain this reason to Sierra and Portia, she lacked the courage to do so. Not now, at least. Revealing the truth would mean exposing the secret of her witch heritage, a fact she was not yet ready to share with anyone except for Siegren.
"Sure, we'll wait for you here." Siera nodded and Helga smiled again before leaving the two and stepping outside her study where she locked gaze with Ludwig, her personal guard and Lucian's younger brother. It had been a week since he was introduced by her husband, and so far, she could tell how reliable Ludwig had been in his duties of keeping a watchful eye over her and protecting her at all times.
"Are you going somewhere, Your Majesty?" he asked, his dimple showing after he flashed a warm, genuine smile. In contrast to his more reserved brother, Ludwig exuded an easy confidence and an outgoing nature. But despite their differences in personality, Helga couldn't help but notice the striking resemblance between him and Lucian; both possessed a natural kindness and a strong sense of responsibility that made it easy for Helga to feel at ease in their presence.
"I'm going to the Alpha King's study," Helga answered as she started walking down the hallway, Ludwig following her closely behind.
"But he wasn't in his study right now," he said, prompting her to stop in her tracks and turn around to face him.
"Huh? Where is he then? Did he leave the palace?" Helga's brows knitted together in a deep furrow of confusion. Siegren had always been diligent about informing her of his whereabouts, especially since they had been using their mind link to 12 46 Fri, Oct 181 Chapter 103
