I became the king's obsession 106: Weird
Looking at the castle, Scheriziel still cannot get over how extravagant and huge it is. 'Instead of complaining, why don't you appreciate his kindness? Look around you. Didn't he tell you he redesigned the palace and garden to suit your taste?' says her mind.She shook her head to remove such a thought. Then, excused herself to head straight to the room his excellency prepared for her."Order everyone as you please. They are all prepared to serve you. Go and rest," says Viishaun as he escorted her.She heaved a heavy breath as she threw herself into the soft bed."He does not look like he's lying. What if he truly speaks of truth?' She stared at the ceiling. Later on, she closed her eyes and added, "Maybe if I think about it more...""No. This isn't working. No matter how hard I search for that memory, I don't have the slightest recollection of meeting him once. I once heard that there are things such as enchantment and sorceress, but they were all wiped up. To sum it up, magic does

Athena was busy cleaning an empty master's bedroom. She can't help but notice the extravagant interior of the room. "Looks like it will be of use sooner," she mumbled.Suddenly Athena recalled how she became the headmaster of maids when she had not been working for decades at the king's mansion. She came from an illegal auction. Then the king raid it, and that's how a lowly slave like her turned into a proper maid.When he woke up from warfare, he renovated rooms and the entire palace. And, thinking back then on how she misread his excellency's intention a year ago when he summoned her to his office alone.'I was stupid for fluttering at the sight of his excellency, back then; only to hear him promote me to the highest position. For a split second, I thought he had taken an interest in me. Who wouldn't flutter? He is a sought-after bachelor of the empire after all,' says a voice inside her head.'Come to think of it. His excellency has a short temper and cruel side, but they're simply

Athena was fixing her ladyship's long hair and adorned it with expensive hairpins. The ladies felt like they had been together for a long time. The touch of the maid's hand is not new to Scheriziel. "Have we met before?" Scheriziel asked. "I can't be certain, madam. I had never left the palace yet, so I guess we had not met until his excellency brought you here." "R-Right." Scheriziel sighed as she stared at her reflection in the mirror and thought her mind was confused because of Viishaun's claims. "I bet his excellency is waiting for you. Shall we proceed to the glass garden, madam?" "Glass garden? Did his excellency request to dine in the garden?" Scheriziel asked. "Yes, madam. He mentioned you like having meals at a peaceful place full of flowers and has an overview of clouds." Scheriziel was silent. She was bewildered because the King seemed to know a lot about her. Viishaun stood up and smiled at Scheriziel as he saw them approaching, and he said, "My queen, you're awake.

"Since we're done. Do you have a place you want to visit or food you desire?" Viishaun asked, trying to win Scheriziel's affection. "How would I know? I haven't been in your domain for a long time," Scheriziel replied. "Didn't you tell me you know a lot about me? Perhaps, you might know places that hook my attention?" she added, focusing on the path to where the carriage was parked.Viishaun's face lit up, and he smiled at her. Then, he responded, "I know a perfect place. Shall we?"Scheriziel smiled and nodded her head. While on the carriage, she asked his excellency, "You mentioned meeting my auntie. What did you tell her? Also, when can I meet her?""I can't quite remember it— I think I told her we have known each other. Anyway, if my calculation is precise, they'll be escorted to the palace tomorrow," he replied."Thank you," Scheriziel replied while watching the trees as the carriage passed by the grove part of the kingdom.Few words coming from her ladyship send butterflies to

"Your excellency, I received a correspondence from that lady," the secretary reported."What does it say?" says Viishaun while flipping pages of the papers."I haven't opened it yet since I had not received a granted order from you.""Tell me the contents. Make it short and precise," the king replied without looking at the secretary."They're coming tonight.""I should prepare then since I'm meeting my in-laws to be. Have someone do a quick background check about delicacies they like.""Understood, your highness." The secretary left after his audience with the king.Meanwhile, Viishaun stood up and stared at the glass door, which was overlooking his window. Then he immediately hid behind the curtain when Scheriziel turned around. He assumed she was looking in his direction."I look like a fool right now. Why am I hiding here? This is so uncool. My face is a soothed-after appearance regardless of the beholders' gender. Even her from the past used to praise me so much for having a hands

Scheriziel had been staring at her ceiling since her family left to return to their ancestral home. She raised her hand and imagined wearing an engagement ring. Suddenly her heart beat fast, followed by a feeling of dizziness. She closed her eyes to see a clouded image of a man kneeling on the ground holding a velvet box with a diamond ring attached to it. Then, he lifted the lady's finger and made her wear the ring."What was that? Probably had too much imagination?" she murmured and got back to reflecting on her thoughts."Come to think of it, his excellency has everything in his palm, so why would a handsome, wealthy, and almost perfect person like him settle for a half-bastard aristocrat like me?"She still questioned her worth and found there's no merit his excellency would reap from marrying her."I am not good for him. I once dreamt of a fairytale—like this, but it's quite weird now that I am at that point. Will it be fine to give him a chance? Can I marry a man like him?"She

'Right, how did I forget about it? It was actually that bastard who started calling her with such a pet name. It simply means that there is still a common thing from the past. Thinking about their romance before the tragedy befalls them had made his excellency's eyes water. 'This must be the sign of heaven. Indeed, a divine opportunity. A chance free of magic to pursue Scheriziel'— is what comes into Viishuan's head as he stares at the lady.'What's with her gaze? How should I put it? It looks like she's shocked,' he added, still not speaking while staring at her."Are you alright, my sunshine?"Scheriziel snapped out, and for the first time, she found it awkward to use her such pet name."Hmm... I guess the first name basis is also special, isn't it? Should we stick to our names instead?""Sure thing, Scheriziel.""By the way, your exce—" Scheriziel was interrupted by Viishaun's clearing of his throat. Then his glance told her she forgot something. So, she smiled and uttered, "Viis

"Do you want to see the children that keep my auntie busy?" Scheriziel asked if his excellency would like to stay in the carriage or accompany her."If my presence there is not much trouble...""Then it's decided. Let's go," Scheriziel replied.Khaleesi was surprised to see the king in her humble one-story home. She greeted him with a respectful bow. The three little kids were confused by their foster mother's action, so they followed her. They also bow their heads to his excellency. "Uhm... I am seeing three children sharing the same face," says Viishaun, trying to ease the awkwardness."They're triplets. I found them three years ago in the forest.""Why didn't you bring them to the palace back then?" If it wasn't for Scheriziel, he wouldn't know the lady was fostering children. Looking at lady Khaleesi, she does not seem like the lady he had met in the past. The lady in front of him was quite simple. There is no sketchy presence about her— compared to the past."Do you read tarot c

Flame Stephan was staring at the family portrait hung on their wall. He heaved a heavy breath at the thought of remembering how he almost thought of breaking off the marriage a week before their marriage, but his fiancee changed into someone else. "It was as if she's no longer Aileen," he murmured to himself. He recalled how their relationship started rosy just like any other couple but turned static and cold as Aileen prioritized her career over him. For him, their marriage was only for the sake of the years they've been together, but one day the lady became innocently sweet. "Buddy, you may laugh at it, but I think I just fell in love deeper with your mom while hesitating to marry her back then. I thought I had fallen out of love, but it looks like we only needed to start a new journey to find our way back to love," he said to a two-year-old son, their third child. He put his son on the sofa and asked, "Who's that cutie in the picture?" Then the baby simply giggled while starin

Side story 00 "My Queen, where's our Alena?" King Alfred asked as he entered the carriage and sat beside the queen. "I thought you fetched her already?" Athena asked. "I thought she was with you," Alfred replied. "Wait here. I'll fetch her," says Athena as she descends from the carriage. She knocked at Alena's room and asked, "My dear, what's taking you long?" Alena turned around and glanced at her mother. "She hasn't dressed yet?" Athena asked the nanny assigned to take good care of the heiress of the western region. "I don't know what to wear, mother. What gown do you think would make me attractive?" Athena chuckled and replied, "You still have four years before your coming of age. Should you be concerned with being attractive at the age of fourteen?" "Of course, mother. I can't show up to the imperial family looking unattractive." "Let's head out now. You don't want to make Vinziel wait that long, do you?" The young heiress looked away to hide her blushing cheeks. Sho

The garden of Allandis imperial palace was packed with invited nobles and aristocrats to celebrate the seventh birthday of the prince. Some guests truly wish to greet the prince, but of course, there is an ambitious family who dreamt of settling close ties with his royal highness' son to gain favor. It is undeniable that social gatherings were one of the paths to the social ladder. Hence, it is like a battlefield instead of an ordinary celebration. Thus, the marquises are on high alert to ensure the safety of everyone. Since the empress is fond of flowers, she decided to use her beautiful garden as a venue for her son's birthday which took her a week to finish the interior, with the helping hands of servants. The table clothes are decorated with the usual embroidered sparkling diamonds attached to the hem of each blue cover, and on top of the tables are gold cutleries and dishware. Those with a vulture eye that captures the unspoken wealth displayed had assumed amassed fortune

The ocean side gives off an impression of being alive and happy with the presence of relaxing vegetation. There are evergreen estates both along and inside the ocean side. Pictures of light ocean growth should be visible along the shore. Palms trees stand tall along the ocean side getting into the rhythm of the breeze radiating from the body of the ocean. Moreover, there are hued blossoms close by, magnificent ones that light up at the sparkling of the mid-year sun. "Look how magnificent the ocean is," says Scheriziel while letting the sun kiss her cheeks. The royal family decided to have a one day vacation, free from all responsibility. However, the little one seemed to dislike the place as the prince plastered a disappointed look. Then, he crossed his arms and furrowed his brows while saying, "This beach again? Can't we go somewhere else, mother and father?" "This place is memorable for us that's why we always visit this place once annually. Don't worry, we're going somewhere els

Scheriziel rested her head on the emperor's chest as they soaked in the hot tub. Then she asked her husband, who was silent and staring blankly at the water. She said, "Are you alright?" "Yes. It's just that I'm quite sad about my old man's demise," Viishaun replied. It was not just the emperor; the whole empire had filled with a heavy heart as the former great leader bid goodbye for eternity. After fighting with his age and ailment, Argus XV left the world. The empress embraced her husband. Then she patted his head buried in her plump chest. She dared not utter a word but comforted him through her acts. "I've been mad at him for years because he has never been a good father to my younger self. I only felt reconnected with him after going back in time." "At least you two had lived well in this second life of ours. I'm sure he is happy wherever he is right now." "Right. I'm glad that my choice in this life turned out fine. At least he gets to see and play with his grandkid," he r

"Let me see your smile for a moment before I do my obligation later, my prince. Your father and I had to take turns to watch over you because we had to finish our duties and responsibilities," says Scheriziel while letting a one-year-old prince play with her fingers. Prince Vinziel giggled when the empress lifted and carried him. Scheriziel sighed and uttered, "We probably should spend more time with you because you will not always be this little. Once you grow older, you'll find your own path, and the time you'd spend with us will get shorter as you age." Someone knocked on the door and asked permission to enter the prince's chamber. "Your majesty, the paper for the foundation you asked for yesterday was waiting for your approval." "One moment..." the empress replied as she left the prince's chamber to visit the former emperor's residency. "Come, my sweet Vinziel," says Argus as he faintly sits on the edge of his bed. "I'll be back to fetch this little sweetie pie, father. He

The empire was filled with joy as the commemoration of the six-month-old offspring of the emperor and empress was currently taking place. As part of the tradition, a royal baby can only be baptized and shown to the public once it reaches six months. "How long will it last? I think our little prince will start crying any moment from now," Scheriziel whispered to her husband's ears. "We're almost back to the palace. Give me our little prince so you could rest your arm," says Viishaun as he gently carries the baby into his arms. He chuckled and added, "He's smiling now. It looks like my handsomeness works on him." "I hate to admit it, but it seems our little prince was quite unfair. How can he always be always in a better mood with you than with me? It was me who had him for nine months, yet he still likes you the most." "That's what you get for always picking a fight and making me run errands," he replied, recalling how hard it was for him to get a peaceful sleep before the little

With the curtains slightly opened, the sun is revealed – shining big and bright right back at the couple awaken by its cozy greeting. Scheriziel slightly opened her eyes as the sun kissed her skin, only to get lazy again at the beginning of another day."Rise and Shine, my life. We need to do a little exercise to prepare you for delivery," says Viishaun, reminding her of things they should do early in the morning. Then he kissed his wife's forehead, down to her nose and lips. "Five more minutes," her ladyship replied, still refusing to open her eyes again.Viishaun sighed and thought he wouldn't force her to take a walk and do a little stretching if it won't help her fast delivery. Scheriziel groaned and uttered, "Fine. You don't have to kick my inside, sweetheart."Viishaun chuckled as he helped the empress sit on the edge of the bed. Then, he took a royal robe to cover his wife."Soon, it will be the three of us walking here to greet the sun and clear sky," says Viishaun, holding
