Chapter 16 Old Flames

Shawn sat in his study, deep in thought, and dreading the upcoming meetings he had with his ministers and cabinet members. The announcement of who was chosen as the queen was already scheduled to be made the next day and he needed to be prepared for any potential outcomes.

He was correctly lagging behind in a whole lot of paperwork because of this.
