Is Your Daughter Behind This?

It had only been twenty minutes, but Odette felt like she was going through an agonizing event in her life. She tried to listen attentively to the First Concubine's stories of Palace intrigues and deceptions. She had no idea why the First Concubine was telling her all of those. She was not interested to know in the slightest.

Before she had decided to form a sort of alliance with the First Concubine, she did a little background check on her. Odette learned that she belonged to one of the most powerful families in Prazia, but she lacked the needed intelligence and cunningness to keep the other concubines at bay. The other concubines may have eliminated her quickly if not for her powerful family.

The power struggle within the harem was as intense as waging war with other kingdoms. Odette knew it all and somehow admired Queen Mina for doing a great job in pacifying the other concubines from making devious plots.
