King Draco's plans were quite simple in a sense, because all he needed to do was ensure that Raphael revealed his true identity to Rowena. If Rowena chose not to seduce him because of some stupid reason, then King Draco had a backup plan called Prince... ahem, King Liam of Verona.
While the young man was nothing more but a pawn in his hand, Liam was still a powerful pawn to use that might force Raphael into action.
More than that, Liam was also important in obtaining that stupid thief's body without any issues.
So, it was with great surprise to the carefully constructed plans of King Draco when he and the rest of the invited guests suddenly heard a shrill cry ring out loudly. It left many of the guests confused, they all glanced at each other and exchanged looks of confusion and worry.
