Zadkiel and Yohan were in the middle of talking when a servant came to inform Zadkiel of something. He whispered into the angel’s ear and Zadkiel’s eyes grew twice in size. It was a hushed whisper.
“Yohan, I know we were having quite a meaningful talk right now but I think it is time for you to head out now. Your mistress is waiting for you at home and you won’t want to keep her waiting for you, right?”
Yohan got the message from Zadkiel and stood up. The angel wanted Yohan to get away from the palace and there could only be one reason for that to happen.
The queen was coming here personally and now was not the time for her and Yohan to meet.
“Guards, I am tired of my guests’ presence. Please escort him out of the palace right now.”
The guards looked conflicted, wanting to follow Zadkiel’s words but hesitating to go ahead and escort Yohan out. Their hesitation was a given since the consort’s commands contradicted their queens.
