Our escorts stay behind as we make our way to Queen Aisha. As soon as we get there we are pushed into positions, facing towards the crowd.

"Here are," she bellowed. " My three daughters. As you know, only one gets to be Queen. We got a vote from every single one of you. But, because of some incidents,". She gives me a quick death glare.

A small cheer occurs from this. Some people are absolutely shocked. And when I meant some, that was 8/10 of the crowd.

"Cheer!" she screeched. A larger cheer rises from this. "What shall be your first act as the Princess-In-Waiting, my dear?" she asks Alpha.

Alpha grins. "I shall vow to myself and to everyone to kill Mora. Now.". A confusion of noise occurs as I try escaping the guards.

"Kill her then! Kill her!" Queen Aisha cackled. I just had to run. But this time, it was for a matter of life and death.
