Chapter 41. EYES: the door to a better world.
In the evening, Danika was in her room when the maids knocked and extracted her. They said it's the King's orders that she should be taken to the royal dressing room.
While they bathed her and clothed her, she wondered what was happening. The only time this has happened was the night she bedded the king for the first time.
Why is she having a Royal Bath?
But, when the outer clothing she'll wear was brought out, Danika swallowed tightly because she already has an idea.
The wear is a former wear for slaves in a particular occasion. The Mask Festival.
The Mask Festival is a festival that's done every year in all the kingdoms where people that attends the festival wears a mask on their faces. They do it to honour the traditional god no one sees.
If The Mask Festival is being done here on Salem, that can only mean that a lot of kings will be coming. She swallowed again.
The gathering of kings is never a good thing for slaves. Especially unwilling slaves.
