Chapter 207: Too bad my queen.
The very sred knight that worked for the queen and had just pointed a sword at Orena’s back vanished
thirty minutes later and he found to his way to Roland’s chambers. There, he met with Sigrid and divulged every
detail of the conversation between the queen and Orena.
It was no surprise that the queen was once again plotting against Sigrid. The two were now irreconcilable
adversaries because they both wanted to control Roland in one way or the other.
Sigrid had been relaxing in a warm bath with fairy dew water when the knight cto report. He was very
respectful and stood with his back to her so that her nakedness would meet his eyes.
She rose from the bath and Lanai wrapped a heavy bathrobe around her. Slowly, Sigrid left the bathroom and
moved to the bedroom. The red knight followed and he stood close to the door with his head bowed.
"Tell me, what is her plan now?" Sigrid asked.
The red knight, head still lowered said, "she plans to have an aphrodisiac added to the prince’s wine tonight at
dinner. It will take around thirty to forty minutes for the aphrodisiac to work.
She will excuse herself from dinner, feigning a headache and then she will summon the crown prince. The queen
also got her hands on an incense extracted from a Luminara bloom which fogs up the mind and makes people
confused. When the prince sees Miss Orena’s eyes, he will mistake her for you. The incense is already being
prepared as we speak."
Sigrid scoffed, the queen was going all out to trap her son. She had even resorted to using such despicable
means. "And then?"
The red knight continued, "the incense has been placed in a bedroom next to hers. Miss Orena will be waiting in
there for the crown prince and....." He raised his head and his eyes met Sigrid’s. "You can guess what will happen
next your highness."
Sigrid sneered, she did not have to guess, she knew what would happen.
"The queen will continue summoning the prince and using this method until Miss Orena becomes pregnant and
then she will reveal the fact that he has been sleeping with her to drive a wedge between the two of you." The
knight added. He lowered his voice and suddenly knelt. "Your highness, err...my next words might not be too

Sigrid’s eyebrows quickly shot up. "Go on."
"The queen plans to have your wine drugged tonight as well and she wantsto bed you. She told one of her
maids to take pictures of us doing the deed and she will use them later to control you.
It is her intention to have you divorce the crown princess or ask the king to allow him take a secondary consort in
which case, one of his cousins will be married to him. When that secondary consort has a male child, you will be
killed off or impaired in sway."
"Get up and return to your post. You will receive your reward from the organization." Sigrid ordered him.
The knight retreated and Sigrid fell into a silence, thinking about the deviousness of the queen and her family.
For the throne, they would do whatever it took. All this while, she had stopped herself from extending her hand
to the queen because he was Roland's mother and now it was dawning on her that the gloves needed to come
off.
"Alistair." she called out.
A gust of wind blew into the room and Alistair revealed himself. He fell to one knee and lowered his head. "l am
at your service your highness."
"Do | need to tell you what to do?" she asked.
Alistair shook his head. "I have sideas but | do not know what conclusion you need. Do you want the queen
alive or dead?"
Sigrid put her hands together and placed them below her chin. A dead queen would mean less trouble for her
but at the stime, it would open up a vacuum that the nobles would rush to fill.
The thoughts of the king were unpredictable, while he loved Elarin or seemed to love her, he would not make her
the queen because she had no support of a powerful family. If the fairy kingdom had been real and thriving, it
would have been possible but it wasn't.
"The De-Kensington’s will just push another to replace the queen. Not just them but the other families too,
especially the ones with military strength like the Evermore’s." she said. "I want her alive but powerless by the
decision of the king. Those drugs, the whore and incense she prepared, let her eat them."
Alistair returned to the window and vanished into the air.
During dinner, which was an actual family dinner without outsiders, Sigrid maintained a perfectly cordial smile as
she regaled the king and Elarin on the tales of her vacation at Stormwind.
When she talked about Roland's failure at coaxing the sheep, the king laughed and sneered playfully at his son.
"I cannot believe that you failed to coax a few sheep. | used to play that gwhen | was younger and | could
coax a thousand sheep."
"A thousand sheep father!! Don’t you think that the number is a little too exaggerated?" Roland's voice was filled
with doubts.
"More like one, and it rammed him into the ground." Elarin said.
King Raff hissed playfully at Elarin, "Don’t give away all of my secrets."
"You didn’t eat the sheep, did you?" Galen asked.

The queen was worried about her plan and Benjamin was worried about Emmah. He still couldn’t get rid of the
image of her in Prince Firron’s arms.
Sigrid picked up the crystal jar of wine that had aphrodisiacs and she refilled Roland's glance. As she did so, she
made sure to look at the queen and smile.
The queen smiled back, her lips widening when she saw the glass of wine touching Roland's lips.
"| propose we play the gtomorrow and see who can coax the most sheep." Galen proposed. "There should
be a prize for the winner."

was in great pain.
"Is all well your highness?" Elarin asked.
