In the royal castle of Evardin, two days later after King Martin had made his decision on who he should pass his throne to, the crowning of his successor was held. It was a ceremony that no one of the aristocrats would want to miss.
The castle's main hall was crowded with all sorts of people in the high society. Noble families, businessmen, vampires, mages, humans, everyone who had earned the right to be present in a royal ceremony attended the event to witness the coronation of the crown prince.
Before Eloise's death, most people believed that once she married Dominic, choosing between Dominic and Alec on who should be the crown prince was a hard decision to make. But after Eloise's marriage plans were put in vain, the townsfolk were quick to conclude that Alec was the best candidate for the crown prince's position unless Cassandra married a royal from another land.
