That night, Queen Ruby couldn't sleep. It wasn't that she didn't want to but she was so excited and looked forward to the next day that she couldn't get her nerves to relax talk more of grabbing a shut-eye.
Greta had noticed the queen's restlessness after the wizard had retired to bed and offered to stay with her for hours. Ruby had agreed and had asked for more wine in fact. She was full of smiles, hopes, and spent the night reminiscing about the times she and Seth had.
Even though she sensed Greta's hesitation to talk about those times, Ruby ignored her sour countenance knowing that Greta had no option but to respond to the questions that she needed answers to.
They heard the cock crow and Greta yawned.
"I must prepare breakfast and your bath, Your Majesty…"
"Do you know I feel sleepy now?" Ruby asked as she rubbed her eyes.
Greta smiled at that and shook her head.
