#Chapter233
Lila's POV
/"So King Darius is giving up the throne?/" Mum asked as she sat beside me in dad's office.
I nodded, slumping back against the sofa. /"He didn't really say much about it,/" I muttered.
All he said was: /"Lila, Alarix, you have both proved you have what it takes to rule. I'm stepping down, and I want to pass the throne over to you both./" I don't know the first thing about being a Queen. Never in my wildest dreams would I have expected this.
There is no way this is the offer that Melanie was speaking about. King Darius doesn't know me. How would I be his first choice?
After the fight, I really thought the king would have left, but he stayed and offered the throne. I don't know whether to be afraid or flattered.
