CORAL'S POV
Coral gritted her teeth once she had stormed out of her mother's bedroom.
She fumed in rage.
It had been almost thirty years, and yet her mother had refused to let go of her sister, who had died.
What did it matter?!
It was long ago.
Coral had watched her mother withdraw from her when she was just a child, the minute Scarlet had disappeared.
Ideally, her mother would have turned to her; after all, she was her last and only child alive.
But the grief has almost made her mother run mad.
Her mother had seen Scarlet everywhere and, for a while, even gone partially insane.
In the midst of this, Coral had grown up to be ignored and forgotten.
When she finally reached age 21 and was to become the Queen, she discovered that she was pregnant.
It has been terrible because there was a curse in the royal family bloodline.
Only those with red hair could ever ascend the throne.
