"Missed me, mother?" Tashina smirked.
Queen Sania stood at the entrance of the castle with her mouth wide open. She gaped at what she laid eyes upon.
She blinked and blinked again. Her eyes had to be deceiving her. How could the Princess be alive? She ordered for her to be killed, she told the soldier not to return unless he saw her dead body.
Was this some kind of joke? Was someone trying to toy with her by bringing a doppelganger? What in the Bloods was going on?
The Queen said nothing but moved forward. Her legs walked down the vast compound and stopped right before Tashina and Lane.
Now, everyone in the palace had stuck their head out from the windows as they watched the scene.
The Queen brought her hand up and reached forward to lay her long fingers on Tashina's cheek. She felt it and she confirmed, the Princess was indeed alive.
"Oh, Tashina!" Queen Sania embraced Tashina as she let out her fake cackles of tears.
