The Truth

She could not help but smile as she saw the shock on his face. 

"Because I was there when it happened."

The look of horror on his face. Priceless. But that was not enough to bring the Werewolf King crumbling down. Though everyone else was equally in shock, no one dared to make a move. 

King Kragen knew that no matter what happened, the fact that it had happened in Kinshearth was to his advantage. Back in Wolfenheim, he was still the King. No one could simply take that from him. 

"Kol, bring Victoria here," Laina instructed. 

After some time, Kol returned with the Order of Knights and Victoria herself. Unlike the last time Kragen had seen her, Victoria looked completely different. She was no longer the scared young woman he had caged in the dungeon. 

To ensure that Victoria's contact with Kragen was kept to a minimum, she was allowed to enter from the side entrance of the Throne Room. Now, she stood next to Laina, facing the crowd.
