"Princess!" A shaky yet loud voice cried out, bursting into the throne room and kneeling in a bow. "Someone- some- someone he-"
"Spit it out." Xueying hissed, growing impatient with her subordinate's stuttering.
"Someone's killed all of our guards! He's- he's almost-" before the boy could say anymore there was a thud and the door flew open. "Save me!!!" He cried, running to hide behind the throne.
Xueying rolled her eyes, slowly walking towards the intruder. "Xuesong, I see you're here. And where are your um… buddies?" She asked with a fake smile plastered on her face.
"Where is the king?" Everett asked, his voice cold and hand gripping his sword tightly. However, he was trembling slightly.
Xueying hummed and nodded, simply walking up past him and through the door. "Follow me." She said, hands on her hips and her smile slowly becoming a smirk.
