In The Red Kingdom...

Ceri Binner sat beside the queen.

Since that day that she had discovered that Queen Zyne was at the infirmary, she visited in the morning and in the evening.

Ceri would come and begin to tell the queen stories about the kingdom, remind her about their conversations and reminisce about how loving Zyne had mentioned that her husband was.

Queen Zyne had not responded all this time...and Alys watched Ceri with disdain and disgust.

It had not been like that before for Alys towards Ceri Binner but since Ceri had come to look for the Queen and had met the king, Alys hated from that day. The way the king had looked at Ceri kept playing over and over in Alys's mind and anytime it came up, her blood would become hot and goosebumps would appear on her skin.
