The atmosphere became so cold in a few seconds that a fine, whitish mist formed inside the Prince's room.
Alexa, inside the Prince's body, looked this way and that, flabbergasted, still finding it hard to believe Alexander had betrayed her and something scary was about to happen.
"Alexa ..." the familiar voice whispered close to the Prince's ears, and Lex turned in the voice's direction. On the other side of the bed, standing, wrapped in her black undulating robes, the Black Queen watched her with interest.
"Letitia!"
Shade remained silent, and all Alexa could see is that the Black Queen seemed even more powerful, if that was possible. Her appearance was more solid and her voice was not a mere whisper. She might not have an actual body, but she was possibly capable of many things that ordinary Shades would never achieve.
How had she achieved this power in so little time?
Perhaps with the help of her cultists, worshipping her like a goddess.
