After satisfying Zara's lips until moon rise and putting her to sleep by injecting Alm into her body every time I nibbled on her tongue, I tucked her in. With the taste of her blood still in my mouth, I planted one last kiss on her forehead before leaving the room, where Viv and Noire were waiting, both on one knee.
"Now, explain." Viv nervously told me everything that happened today, with the second queen being involved and mastermind behind all this bullshit. I haven't forgotten how she attacked Zara at the tournament, now she tries to sneakily attack her? I need to make an example out of her, so they'll leave us alone. Celest's protection can only do so much.
