Hermetic Secret Meeting (4-in-1)

"Queen?"

Roy wondered inwardly for a moment.

A tasseled braided hairband adorned her golden hair, and her snow-white gown was covered in diamond fragments that glittered like stars. Her eyes were emerald green.

Seraphina's little mouth puckered at the sight. She did not seem very fond of this queen.

She was indeed not Vasilisa's biological daughter. Vasilisa was not the king's first queen, but a
