Who Is Next In Time?...
Queen Ariadne's POV.
The coronation was in a month time. I wondered why the preparation was made early. This might cause more problems in the family.
"So Grandmother, who is next in line?" I asked. The smile that she had disappeared. Did my question caused it or my face?
She did not respond. It was mother who spoke.
"The Emperor can choose any one. It depends on his choice" She said with a smile and continued "It's could be you or queen Valeria. Vida , Marlena.
My eyes widened and I opened my mouth to say something but words did not come out. I never hear of a woman ruling continents. This was my first time. Or was mother trying to pull our legs? The Emperor had many brothers , he was going to pick one of them.
Queen Valeria looked at me with a frown. I ignored her. I was not the reason for her predicaments.
"Why will he choose us mother? I have never heard of a woman who ruled Akkad before" I said, curiously.
