Meanwhile, Sir Gregory was trying to control his temper. Once again, Lance was very angry. And so was Benedicta. She was angry about the public display of affection he shew towards his human bride. That was just insane!

As usual, no one could tell what the look on Harvey's face meant.

"Pardon his manners, he is unusually not like that," the queen said with a sweet smile, even though she was very sweaty. Being around Harold was torturous because she didn't know just how much he knew. And she could not tell who had been spying on her last night either.

"Forgive him," Damon said to them all, taking up his role as the next in command and making the air around the dining room go cold.

"We have our trusted allies here and so we do not think it is necessary to keep this away from each of you," Damon said before his eyes went to Luciana, who kept her gaze ahead of her, not even sparing her parents any glances the entire time.

"Princess Luciana has lost her title as a Princess. She disobeyed her husband and looked down on him. Which is a crime punishable by death. But as the first Princess of the royal household, she would be excommunicated and be made to repent for the sins against her husband and the laws of the Moon Kingdom. She is also banned from taking part in the banquet tonight as well as the full moon ceremony."

There was pin-drop silence in the room as all eyes went to Luciana, who didn't flinch at all, as if she was not the one they were talking about. Her mother looked like she was going to burst into tears while her father closed his eyes at the public humiliation of their family. If only his useless daughter had a son. This wouldn't have happened.

Ivan looked at his wife. One part of him pitied her, but the other part was mad about how cool she was being about everything when she was supposed to be crying and begging him for mercy.

"As Prince Ivan announced yesterday, he would be getting married to Benedicta. The daughter of Sir Richard," the queen announced.

All eyes turned to Benedicta, who was forcing herself to smile, but it was not working.

"However, there is going to be another royal wedding between Princess Tyra and Lance. The Son of Sir Gregory." The queen announced again, smiling. Having these two families behind her was the best thing she could ever think of. With them behind her, Harold didn't stand a chance even if the King decided to favour him.

Tyra's eyes shot wide as soon as the queen said that. She hadn't thought the queen was planning to go through with it. Even though she knew her mother usually did as she pleased, she had expected to at least have time to plan something. But she was caught off guard by this sudden public announcement. She would rather die than marry Lance. And judging by the look on his face, Lance felt the same way.

Unfortunately, there was no Harold to save her from this now.

Susan gave her a sympathetic look. And that was all she got.

"I... don't wish... to..."

"It has been decided!" Damon cut her off in a harsh tone that had Tyra recoil back in her seat and keep her mouth sealed.

The queen also glared at her in displeasure before she smiled sweetly at everyone once again.

"Pardon them. Children these days are quite difficult to handle." She forced out a laugh to lighten the atmosphere, but it was anything but.

The only ones who seemed to be happy about this arrangement were the queen and Sir Gregory, who was happy that someone was finally going to marry his son and not just anyone, but someone from the royal family. He could overlook the fact that she was a weak Omega. It didn't matter at this point. He could already imagine how his business was going to be transformed.

So when Lance even attempted to say something, Sir Gregory made sure to give him a wicked look to keep his mouth shut.

"That is settled then. It's a thing of joy for parents to see their children getting married and raising a family, isn't that correct, brother?" She looked at her older brother, who nodded in agreement, while Susan and Williams looked at them curiously.

They didn't care who was getting married, as long as they were not involved. That was good.

Susan's throat was dry from all the anxiety and awkwardness, so she raised her goblet to drink some water.

"As we settle on the royal weddings, Sir Harvey and my lovely niece, Susan, can take the time to get to know each other better."

Susan had not expected it, so she choked on her water and quickly used her hand to cover her mouth as she looked wide-eyed at the queen.

This had to be a joke, right?

*******

Oblivious to the numerous weddings being planned without the consent of the involved parties, Alicia and Harold kept advancing toward her chamber. When they were far away from the dining, she held his arm and stopped him.

"I put in enough effort not to cause trouble. Why did you do that?" She complained in a soft voice. It was very obvious, even to Harold, that she was touched at how he had stood up for her like that.

That was a good question. Harold didn't know. Wasn't it normal for servants to handle the kitchen? But if his wife could make those things for all of them, why couldn't Sir Gregory's wife do the same?

"Thank you," she spoke softly. "For doing that. But I really don't want you to get into trouble. Especially because of me."

Not knowing what else to say, he simply nodded and she flashed him a smile.

"I need to speak with Harvey. I have questions I need to ask him," Alicia said, and Harold looked at her closely. He looked between confused and disappointed.

"You... are not going to ask him to... help you escape, are you?" Harold asked doubtfully, and she eyed him with annoyance.

"If I had such an intention, would I have told you about my conversation with him? Arrange for me to meet with him without trouble. I need to find out more about Princess Amber and Queen Anne. Can you do that for me?" Alicia asked, and Harold looked at her for a brief moment before giving her a nod.

"I will send Alvin to get you when it's time. You should remain in your chamber until then, and..."

"And stay out of trouble," Alicia completed his sentence with a roll of her eyes, "I will be waiting for Alvin," she said, and waved him goodbye before walking away. Frowning, he raised his hand slowly to do the same before quickly putting it down and turning around.
