I nodded my head, smiling at her "Friend, yes you are my friend" I replied with a smile, Maya then tried to hug me but she awkwardly smiled "C-can I?" She asked, I chuckled and I pulled her into a hug "You don't have to ask" I replied and Maya was too shock then quickly returned the hug.

"That's why the King fell for you, You are kind, selfless and loving beautiful woman. Before I met you, I already heard The king speaking of a girl from the village and I got confused but I promise you, he was talking about you thats why!" Maya said while pinching my arm playfully, I widened my eyes and shook my head "You sucessfully flattered me!" I said while hiding my chest while laughing.

Maya laughed back and patted my back "I'm good at flattering!" She replied while still laughing, I chuckled and stopped for a while to ask her "can you teach me then? I want to flatter Thomas when he comes back, he usually flatters me alot" I said while blushing, Maya smirked and whispered teasingly "Oh~ so you're changing the cruel king, hmm?"

I laughed, shooking my head as I denied it "No way!" I said quickly with wide eyes, Maya chuckled and stopped laughing "Alright, I'll teach you how to flatter" She said before she stepped closer to me and whispered, I gasped and nodded. Listening carefully.

It's 10 in the evening, checking the lists and signed them quickly as I quickly got tired but kept doing my job as the Queen of this Kingdom, suddenly someone knocked on the door, I looked up then looked back down again to the papers while signing it "Come in" I said.

The door opened revealing a letter man, he bowed to me and I nodded. "Your Majesty, well I" He paused, I nodded again and smiled "Yes, speak?" The man hand me a letter, I looked down to it and then back up to him "A letter from King Thomas" He said before bowing down, I can feel my heart beating as his name mentioned.

I nodded calmly "Go" I said and the man nodded before bowing down again then left the room quietly, I looked down at the letter and slowly opened it. I swear if anything happens to- I cutted my thoughts off as I started to read "My love, how have you been doing these past days? If you are worried of me, I am fine as always, infact I am coming back tomorrow perhaps you can say I expect the words I want to hear from you, I love you always.. from your beloved" I covered my mouth while reading it, my heart is close to blowing up. He is coming back tomorrow!

I covered my mouth and screamed in happiness, He is coming back tomorrow! I can't wait to see him, I have so many stories and flattery I will say to him. In the whole night, i couldn't sleep because of the excitement in my heart.

I told the servants to prepare the clean room and his all favorite foods to surprise him, I really hope he likes it. Oh, I know he will surely! Looking around the room as I nodded my head "That's right! Tilt it slightly on the left- oh yes yes, stop! Okay that's fine" I said to the servants preparing the surprise.

Looking around as I smiled at the beautiful sight "Good Job everyone, now go and eat snacks I prepared, here" I said while giving them one by one loaf of bread and roasted nuts with some toffee apples. Some of the servant told me as she received the snack "Thank you, Your Majesty. You are too kind" She said.

I smiled widely before nodding my head "I'm here if you need me" I said and the servant girl smiled back before nodding to her friend as she whispered something that made her friend smiled too, her friend came up to me and bowed down "Thank you for taking care of us, Your Majesty" She said with a friendly smile.

This makes my heart melt, I don't know how these servants felt when Thomas hurted them for not doing simple things Thomas can even do, I sighed as I thought of Thomas again.

Time skipped Early in the morning, I woke up and quickly took a bath before changing into a flower dress. Brushing my hair while looking at the mirror and when suddenly a trumpet was heard around the Palace and even the village too, the door opened by Maya "Evelyn! Come down, he's here!" She said excitedly.

I widened my eyes, looking myself in the mirror and smiled before quickly following Maya downstairs excitedly, wait. I forgot the flatter word Maya told me yesterday! I arrived outside and sighed in relief as I saw many of them survived, the trumpet blows up again "Today, We celebrate the return of our King and the victory of the war against the Kingdom of tovcilta!" The speaker said loudly and everybody clapped their hands loudly.

I smiled widely, waiting for Thomas. "King Thomas of Ellesmere!" That's when the carriage door opened revealing Thomas, I gasped and held my hand, people around waved and some of them clapping "Long live the King! Long live the king!" I smiled proudly at Thomas for winning the war.

Thomas looked to my way and started to walk to me, I feel nervous. Should I really do the flattery Maya taught me about? No, not in this situation. I kept looking at Thomas who then stopped walking as he's standing infront of me and everybody goes silent.

While I kept looking at him, I gulped and clenched my fist "D-do you play? C-cuz I wanna p-lay something with yo-" My words got cutted off by Thomas kissing me deeply infront of the crowd and the crowd goes wild, they then clapped their hands and whistling at us. I froze in my place, not infront of the crowd.

Thomas pulled from the kiss and smirked as soon as he saw my reaction "Why do you have to kiss me in front of here?" I asked loudly enough for him to hear, Thomas chuckled and whispered "To let them know that you are mine" He said, I glared at him "Yo- not in the crowd!" I whispered yelled at him.

While Thomas kept looking at me "Let them see, you did not even gave me a welcome home hug?" I glared at him and quickly hugged him, Thomas chuckled and waved at the crowd. The people waved back while shouting "Long live the King and Queen" I blushed and Thomas laughed before pulling me inside the palace.

He looked around as he was shook to see many food around, I smirked "Isn't that all your favorite foods?" I asked, Thomas cleared his throat before putting his hands behind him like a gentleman "I'll eat this later, but I have to spend my day with you" He said, I laughed more. "You're so sweet today, I guess someone hit your head while on the battle" I said jokingly.

Thomas stayed silent, I pressed my lips together and broke the silence "You have to change shirt, come on" I said while dragging him upstairs. Smiling as I walked inside his chamber and Thomas got shock by his curtain turned into pink that has bears designed "Evelyn, what's this?" He asked me.

I answered while looking up to it "New pink curtains, I made them yesterday night and it was tiring! Don't decline it, I worked hard on i-" I cutted my words by screaming as Thomas fell on the ground, I kneeled down and shake him but he's not moving. I freaked out and shaked him more this time harder but carefully "Thomas? Help!"
