The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

When the words were uttered, the queen almost fainted.

The king immediately caught her and turned to look coldly at the servant girl snivelling on the ground, his voice so low it was like lava rumbling beneath the earth.

"What happened?"

The servant girl's body was wracked with shivers but it made her come to her senses. She wiped away her tears and got off the ground, bowed low to the royalty and said, "the princess's cat went missing and so I tried to find it for her. But when I finally found the cat and brought it to her room, a black shadow charged out of the room. I got a fright and immediately ran into the room again, but the princess was gone."

"This just happened?" The king asked immediately.

The servant girl nodded and said, "I ran here immediately to tell you."

At that moment, the faces in the crowd changed.
