Her Highness Returns

Laina entered the training grounds with Dante by her side. Needless to say, this alone was enough to get the nobles to gossip. As soon as she locked eyes with the Nobles of the High Court, she knew what was going through their minds. 

She never had their support from the beginning, so she did not care about their opinions of her. As soon as Nyx saw Laina, she quickly ran over to her and took the knee. 

"Your Highness! You're back!" Nyx exclaimed with glee. 

Laina was happy to see her but she was not happy to see what was going on. As soon as she noticed Margaret in handcuffs and Lord Ethan on the field, she began to put the pieces together. 

By the rules of the Royal Court, everyone should be either bowing or on their knees to greet her. Yet only a small number of them abide by these rules. Laina folded her arms as she looked Lord Ethan straight in the eye. She was going to forgo the formalities, just to see what her cousin had to see.
