Recalling The Previous Night
When Seren woke up the next day, it was late in the morning. The sun was high in the sky and had already brightened up the entire capital. Her head felt heavy and her vision was blurry despite blinking a couple of times. Her mind was empty of thoughts, but out of habit, she looked to her side to see if someone was there but the other side of the bed was empty. A little clarity came into her mind.
Drayce was not there with her.
Just then, she heard the familiar female voices which politely greeted her every morning.
"Good morning, Your Majesty!" Marie and Eva bowed towards her.
Still in a daze, Seren didn't respond as she kept lying in the bed. She cradled her throbbing forehead. 'Why is my head hurting like this?'
Marie, who had already expected something must have happened between her king and the queen the previous night, stepped towards the bed and asked with worry, "Your Majesty, are you not feeling well?"
