"No, as one of my leader's ladies, come, my lady," he said, kneeling on one knee, in an act that made her tears well up her eyes, reddened her two beatufiul gems in her head, making her look more dejected and desolate.
'Why did I let you go alone?' she muttered, while standing, with no power at all, from the throne, letting the heavy cold crown she inherited from her mother to fall on the ground and then walk away.
The moment she did that, she felt like a heavy, very heavy burden was let loose finally off her chest, and now she was living another life, her own true life.
"Lead the way, my old friend," she muttered as she helped Rigo stand. Her friends should never bow to anyone, even to her, not anymore!
As for Rigo, he came here without telling James anything. He knew James wouldn't tolerate such impudence, but he didn't want him to have any ill intentions or feelings towards Dora, especially when there were such beauties already on his side.
