Her and everyone else was flabbergasted at the offer. The offer wasn’t a small one. In the old days of monarchies, to be the right or left hand of a monarch was a big thing. Merlin was mine, along with Marcus.. technically. Somehow I always knew in the back of my mind that if I became queen, I wanted her to be my right hand. She was probably one of the most competent mages from the Ministry and her methodology was not far from mine. Though she leaned more towards the light, I would never consider that a negative aspect.
