KATHRYN'S POV

It's been a week since our wedding and Alvia is still talking about her experience meeting her idols in person. Even there was a language barrier between them; I say it's fun being her translator.

"I'm glad that you like my surprise. Anyway, the real question now is what I am supposed to do at the succession? What should I say? Please talk through to me about it." Alvia gave me a look.

"I thought Genevieve already explained to you what should you do and how to act. What were you doing when she was explaining the details to you?" What was I doing?

"She was explaining stuff, and you know how I am when she started to explain all the formal thing. I doze off." Alvia sighs while shaking her head.

I know she's been telling me to stop doing that, but I can't merely get rid of my habit. That's just who I am.

"I'm going to explain to you as simple as I can so that you won't feel bored. All you have to do is walk down the red carpet, and I'll be waiting for you. Once you arrived, kneel, and I will place the crown on your head. Once I did that, stand up, and I will lead you to your throne next to mine. Face the people of Gralia, smile, and the herald will then announce you like the new empress of Gralia." Now, why can't Genevieve explain to me as Alvia did?

"Did you get it?" I nod.

"Somehow, you manage to get my attention." She smiled before looking at her reflection on the mirror.

"This is the first time wearing I'm wearing my new official attire in a formal event. It matches yours." I look down on my attire before looking at what Alvia's is wearing. It does match us perfectly.

" The seamstress outdid herself yet again. She is one talented dressmaker." I decided to twirl around a little, but I immediately regretted it because it just made my headache worse.

"What's wrong? You look pale." I was trying to make the uneasy feeling go away, but I accidentally let out a gagging noise instead. Alvia went to my side when she heard me.

" We can skip today's event if you don't feel okay. I'm sure everyone will understand. I don't want you to force yourself." But if we decided to skip today, it doesn't change the fact that I have to be crown in national television.

Whether I like it or not, we have to go through this crowing today.

"Are you sure?" I nod.

"I just want to get this over with. Besides, after the crowning, I will find some time alone and rest. After that, I should be fine." I convinced myself, but I have been feeling this nausea for a few days now.

I blamed that forsaken caviar for making me gag out of the blue.

"Alright, I'll make some arrangement so that you won't be busy for the rest of the day. Please get better. I hate to see you not feeling well." I am so lucky to have such an overly protective and caring partner.

But sometimes I do feel like she's too concern about others than herself. I'm not the one who keeps skipping meals and her sleeping schedule. She needs to take care of herself more.

"I really appreciate it that you care, but you need to advise yourself when it comes to forcing yourself. You've been working hard, and I hardly see you nowadays. Please tell me that you're okay." Alvia smiled.

"Of course, I am. I just want to make sure that my loved one lives in a safe environment and worry-free. And I-" I literally gag yet again. What is happening to me?

"For Heaven sake, are you okay?" She leads me towards the chair and kneels on the floor.

"I don't think you will be able to go through with the succession. We can reschedule. I-" I shake my head no and smiled at her.
