An hour later, Alcott, who was standing guard at the city wall, got summoned to the castle. Annoyed, he quickly picked a horse and made his way back. The guards at the castle gate informed him that one of the future queens was the one to summon and that he was to report to her at the eastern fifth quarter.
Alcott wasn't a fool, he had already memorized the castle layout and knew that the eastern fifth quarter was empty this morning. Claug is the only woman who showed up today… "This is why I don't like dealing with dragons."
When he made it into the quarter, one of the servants there led him to Claug's room. She knocked on the door, got permission and allowed him inside. Claug was sitting beside the window having her hair brushed by Elizabeth.
"Why did you call me? You know I'm busy." He stood at the door and looked at her.
"Oh, I just wanted to have a chat with my father-in-law, something wrong with that?" She looked at him with a smug smile.
