She Confessed

Days melted into each other but Mineah still remained unconscious with Nikolai never leaving her side even for a moment.

He ordered for a total lockdown in the kingdom and strict security at the borders. The weapons with his wife's blood were also distributed to each province and city to prevent any potential outbreak of infection.

Nikolai watched closely as her shadow maidens looked after her. Zaila took on the task of overseeing Mineah's well-being, closely monitoring her condition. While Dani, with Krisha's assistance, made sure that the Queen's duties and tasks were fulfilled while Mineah was still unconscious. 

Zaila's occasional sighs and furrowed brows didn't escape Nikolai's eyes.

"How is she?" he asked Zaila with a frown.
