Estella’s (Ella) POV:
2 days later, .
My maid is helping me dress, Beth said, “ma’am… should I help you with your hair”… I said, “no… you can leave…” Beth nodded and left.. I fixed the dress here and there. I pulled my hair to braid them.. I don’t like maids doing this for me.. I just don’t know… I feel comfortable like this…
I noticed the mark on my neck, I was blushing as I remember that day in the bath… I got intimate with His Majesty… but he treats me well, I felt arms around me and I was startled… I looked in the mirror and his majesty is hugging me from behind… I smiled and said, “I didn’t noticed… when you arrived your majesty?”
He smiled and said, “when were you touching the mark I gave you…” I was blushing… I whispered, “you are making me blush, your majesty..”
He turned me to face him and caressed my face, he asked, “Ella… are you feeling better?... have you eaten?” I nodded… he smiled and touched my face, I asked, “your majesty, why do you only care about me?... I feel so bad that I can’t do anything for you… I am useless…”
He made me look at him and said, “don’t say that… You are my everything… I just need your love…” I smiled and embraced him… I am really lucky to have him…
I turned to his majesty and said, “I have to ask something…” he looked at me and nodded. I asked, “your majesty… I find this knitted garment of a child in my room… I wonder where it came from.. the maid didn’t answer me… I am confused..” I looked at him.. I see this uneasiness on his face, which turns into anger… he said, “Ella.. don’t get into useless things which are not important… do you understand?”
He is angry, did I say anything wrong, I looked down and said, “I am sorry, your majesty…” Maybe I made a mistake… or why was his majesty angry with me?
I felt hands around my cheeks, and King Adrian made me look at him. he sighed and said, “please… don’t try to pressure yourself.. you still need time to heal… The garment was for my brother’s wife… she is with child. She was here and was showing you knitting… and you tried to learn…. It’s nothing to do with you, my love…” I looked at his majesty and nodded.. I said, “I am sorry… I won’t over think… it’s just that I feel anxious when I see a few things, and I don’t remember anything about it…”
I sniffed and said, “I shouldn’t trouble you…” his majesty sighed and said, “Ella… it doesn’t matter.. past can’t be achieved or recreated, but we will meet a good future….” I smiled on his words… he loves me… or why would he try to bring a good future with a commoner girl like me… when he is the king…
I tiptoed and stretched for a small kiss on his lips, I said, “I love you, your majesty…” his eyes went wide as he heard this… I saw a shine in his eyes… and he smiled at me and landed his lips on mine… I moved back to support myself… soon I met the wall… he is so passionate and trying to suck my lips as possible… after few wide passionate moments he let go the kiss…
I was red.. He said, “I love you, my Ella… I am so glad to hear this from you.. I love you..” he embraced me.. I smiled at him…
Suddenly, my head started to hurt like it would split in two… I heard voices as faint as they could be.. few words… my feet were trembling… I heard a few unclear words, ‘welcome to the capital…’ ‘Jacobi’…. ‘don’t betray me’…. ‘father’…. ‘hate you’…. ‘don’t do… this’….
What was that… my head hurts.. why would I hear strange words?.. I grabbed into his majesty.. he asked, “Ella… you ok?.. what happened?”
I looked at him with teary eyes, “my head hurts”… he made me sit on the bed and touched my face and said “Ella… tell me what happened?” he passed me water… I drank it and I don’t know what happed… I clearly don’t understand these things… what was that… I shouldn’t think much, and I don’t want to trouble his majesty… I looked at him and said, “it’s just my head hurts suddenly…” he called the physician…. I don’t want to think about those weird words.. I will look for a bright future with his majesty…
