Lord Ankol and Charlotte remained shocked when they heard her . A certain pain started to poke Charlotte's heart . It was a pain that she had never felt before . It wasn't guilt , it wasn't regret , she couldn't describe it but she could feel the feeling of being hurt , the anger and the sadness at the same time .
' What's this feeling ?......Why am I suddenly....' upset ' ?.... ' thought Charlotte clenching her chest .
" You don't need to worry , your majesty . If the king didn't favor you he would never have announced publicly that you are his wife , nor prepare this banquet . " said lord Ankol when he saw Charlotte's expression .
" ....No....I am not disturbed by this , lord Ankol . " said Charlotte with a forced smile .
" Freya , do you realize what you are saying ? " said king Damien when he heard her .
" Yes ! I realize and I am clear about every word that I am saying . Damien , I have always liked you . Can you.........Can you pl
When he arrived in front of Catherine , he looked at her with a loving look then bent on one knee ." All my life , I tried to find the one for me . The one that would brighten up my life . I have been searching for that person all over but no matter how hard I looked around , I was never able to find that special person . It was because you were from a different world from me . You were living in a different world . When I saw you for the first time , I already couldn't help but notice you . As time passed that simple curiosity turned into interest , the interest turned into like , like turned into crush and crush turned into........love . I love you Catherine . I love you with all my heart . You are the one with whom I wish I could spend the rest of my life with . Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife . Until death do us part , I wish for you to stay by my side . Will you please , grant me the honor of being your husband , lady Catherine ? " said chancellor Geo
" Congratulations to the both of you , mother , George ! " said king Damien ." Thank you , your majesty ! " said Catherine with a warm smile ." Shouldn't you call me father ? " said chancellor George with a smirk ." You already are my big bro and chancellor . Now you wanna be my father ?! Dream on and take care well of my mother in law . " said king Damien with a smirk and the both of them laughed then he looked at Charlotte again .King Damien grabbed Charlotte by her waist and raised her up to his shoulders ." Hey ! What are you doing ?! Put me down ! " said Charlotte annoyed ." A bad wife who doesn't listen needs to be taught a lesson . " said king Damien ." What ?! Bad wife ?! You liar of a chameleon better let me down . Let go of me ! " said Charlotte ." Stay still princess . " said king Damien and the two of them walked ahead ." Will she be alright ? " said Catherine with a worried expression .
" Hhahhhh...........Much better ! Curse the corsets ! Finally, I am breathing ! " said Charlotte with her bra on and the top of her dress who had already fallen down her stomach .She looked at her dress that had fallen and started to wear it again , this time without the corset on . When wearing the dress she noticed that king Damien was staring at her ." Don't you dare look at me like that , you pervert ! " said Charlotte ." If , I , your husband , can't look at it , who is going to look ? " said king Damien with a forced smile and annoyed tone ." Anyone but you can look ! " said Charlotte ." Oh , is that so ?! I am curious to know to who ' everyone ' you are referring to ? " said king Damien annoyed even more ." None of your business ! " said Charlotte ." You seem unusually annoyed tonight . I doubt it's because of the alcohol . " said king Damien sitting at the chair next to the bed and the place where Charlotte was si
" Aghhhhh !!!! " screamed Charlotte when she opened her eyes and found herself in king Damien's bed with him sleeping next to her ." Luckily the room is soundproof or else you would have woken up all the people in the castle . " said king Damien rubbing his eyes ." Where am I ?! Why are we sleeping on the same bed ?! Why is my dress at the top undressed ?! Who took off my corset ?!.........I am glad it's off but that's not the question here . What the hell happened ? " said Charlotte nervous looking at king Damien shocked ." You become so talkative after drinking . " said king Damien as he stretched his arms ." Kindly answer my question , your majesty . " said Charlotte with half an annoyed tone ." Well , I got to witness quite an interesting side of yours yesterday , my dear wife . You were so jealous because a girl confessed to me . I was honestly shocked when I saw how angry you were . " said king Damien with a smirk ." J...J.....J.
A week passed since the weeding of her mother and Charlotte kept herself busy at the library . She didn't even have the time to meet Catherine because chancellor George would always be with her everywhere . Of course, she understood that they needed their own space as newly wed . Tia also got busy with the work that Charlotte assigned to her . In order to keep Tia busy so that she wouldn't have time to stay with her staying with her , Charlotte continued to give her more work . In the meantime, the only person who she passed her time recently was doctor Ray ." Do you think this will work Charlotte ? " asked Ray ." of course it will ! Girls love it when the boy flirts with her a little . It's refreshing and exciting . You can't be too flirty though . " said Charlotte ." What about the confession part ? " asked Ray ." You need to write a plan about that and send it to me . Think about it carefully before you do anything . The first confession is i
" Me getting married to lord Freya ?! " said king Damien surprised ." Yes , she likes you . It's pretty obvious . " said chancellor George ." I think that you are mistaken about this . " said king Damien ." I am serious . " said chancellor Gorge ." She's just a good friend of mine since when we were still adolescents . Although she confessed to em , I cannot return her feelings back . " said king Damien ." Smart , beautiful , polite.......the perfect fit for the position of queen and for you . "said chancellor George ." I think that you are too bored lately and have started to think nonsense . " said king Damien ." Huh ?! You are the one who has been acting all weird and saying that you actually like that troublesome human . Seriously , your majesty ! I must ask the physician to give you a full psychological check-up . " said chancellor George ." If you wanna continue nagging then go back to your office . "
" You sure have the guts to counterattack the king of this empire . " said king Damien ." Oh , really ?!......As far as I remember , we agreed that we would treat each other equally . " said Charlotte ." Did we ?!.....I don't remember . " said king Damien with a smirk ." I am sure you will remember it once you try thinking about it a bit harder . " said Charlotte with a smile but clearly an annoyed tone .King Damien grabbed her hand and pulled her towards himself then softly grabbed her chin ." ....Maybe.....a little kiss can make me remember since the kiss was the one at fault for me being too distracted to recall that . What do you think ? " said king Damien with a teasing tone .Charlotte's face blushed a little then she tried to get away but his grasp on her was so strange that she couldn't break free no matter how much she tried ." I think that the water must be too comfortable to have made you lose your rationality .
Another week passed after the moment they got separated in the bathroom at king Damien's place . The situation with the crystal was serious and king Damien hadn't stepped out of his office at all . When she would see go to see him , she noticed the tired expression on his eyes and felt awful because she couldn't help him . Charlotte passed by the council room and noticed that the door was opened . She could hear the oppositions of the nobles and the conflicts between the lords . Charlotte peeked a bit through the door that was left a bit open and looked at king Damien . he was giving energy to the crystal so that it could continue to work normally like it usually did but the energy that the crystal of power required was draining him . She could clearly see how tired he was , he had also lost weight due to the lack of rest .' Damien..............what can I do to help you ?..........What can I do so that you can look healthy again ? ' thought Charlotte with a sad express
" Oh , Damien !..... " said Charlotte touched by how much he was willing to do and endure for her . " Tsk ! Hateful dragon ! " said prince Diego displeased . Kana looked at king Damien with admiration . During the week that Kana and Charlotte spent time with each other , she told her about king Damien and what she had been through in the other world . At first Kana was a bit worried for her sister but when she saw Damien , she took a breath of relief . " I see that you are going to marry my sister-in-law so I think we should set aside our grudges . " said king Damien . " Sister-in-law ?!..... " said Kana
" N…..No need ! I trust you now . " said Charlotte blushing ." My , my ! What a pity that you were convinced so fast though . We could have gone a little further.....What made up your mind , princess ?" said king Damien with a smirk ." Your perverted behaviour . " said Charlotte annoyed ." You should know that I only behave like this when I am with you . " said king Damien .When Charlotte heard this phrase , she was convinced that he was Damien . He had said the same thing to her before too . She looked at him surprised and couldn't help but touch his face mesmerised ." Is...is it really you ? " asked Charlotte .King Damien could feel her small hand trembling as she held his face which looked flawless . He knew that her emotions now were a mix of happiness , guilt , fear and excitement .Looking at her face , a tear fell from
The handsome man still couldn't help but laugh at the childish-sounding words of Charlotte ." You said that you owe me one for saving you . " said the handsome man ." Yes , I do ! Also , you arrived at a good time . Now I am not a simple powerless princess . I have power now . You can tell me what would you desire for saving me . A luxurious villa ? A royal diamond ? Bank account with lots of money ? " said Charlotte ." I don't need any of those . " said the handsome man ." Looking at how you are dressed , I am not surprised . Tell me ! What do you want ? But don't forget . I gave you a hairpin that was extremely important to me . I want that to be returned to me . " said Charlotte with a smirk ." In comparison to the other royal jewels , that hairpin isn't that much valuable . " said the handsome man ." It has a deep meaning to me since my
' He is determined to give me a heart attack . ' thought Kana blushing like a tomato . Looking at her face , Charlotte could tell what she was thinking and couldn't help from laughing . " I....I have done a lot of wrongdoings to my sister . I never want to hurt her again . I am thrilled that you love me . I love you too but I cannot suffer the pain of making my sister sad . I would rather become a nun than hurting my sister again . I also am confident that I won't fall in love with another person so becoming a nun is the best option for me . " said Kana with a determined expression . ' Pffft ! That silly girl is so funny !....for the first time in kore than a decade, I can see the resemblance in our genes . ' thought Charlotte who was barely holding herself from laughing . " Haaaah ! You two sisters really...…..Kana ! Charlotte was the one who helped me sort out my own emotions . When I saw y
Before he walked away he turned his head and looked at Charlotte again . " Charlotte , thank you for bumping into me that day and giving me the chance to meet someone as awesome as you . " said Diego . " I should also thank you . Thank you for following me with my silly escape that time and for giving me justice....brother . " said Charlotte with a warm smile . " Sister ! " said Diego happy and went to the garden to search for Kana . As she looked at Diego's back , the heavy feeling in her heart started to get lighter . She finally felt like she wouldn't be alone even if her mother , Damien , Tia , Dylan and the annoying George were away and hated her . When she was about to go a masked man appeared in front of her . Just like their first ball , the current ball also wanted the participants to wear masks . Charlotte looked at him doubtful . During the whole tome she had be
The beautiful ballroom of Anadol's royal palace was filled with the most important people . Everyone was gathered under the name of Diego but in reality , this was a welcoming ball for Charlotte . Diego noticed that she didn't feel that happy these days as she sighed and looked at the sky so he decided to throw a ball with the hope that he would make her smile again . Over the past week that Charlotte had been there , she hadn't smiled much ." I am happy that you came . " said Diego with a warm smile ." Staying in my room all day will do me no good . " said Charlotte .The two of them smiled at each other and looked at the dance floor filled with people . The music soon started and different couples of men and women were formed . As they danced , Charlotte looked at them with a cheerful expression ." Wanna dance ? " said Diego who noticed that she seemed to enjoy the scene of people dancing .
" Oh , so she did it for me ?! She did this to save me ?! Seriously ! What's with you ?! You hated her when she was nice not that she is mean you suddenly protect her ?!........Weird ! " said king Damien laughing with a dry smile ." Because I can see how much she loves you and how much she is willing to do for you . The look you two have is the same as mine with Catherine . I doubted her , I really did but now............I am never doubting the words she told me . Nor her immense feelings for you . " said chancellor George ." You better cut off these bullshits of lies , chancellor . " said king Damien ." Do you really think I am lying , your majesty ? " said chancellor George ." Goerge , who would fall in love with a monster ?!.........Even if I unite this crystal and regain my original appearance...........What's the use ?!.................For the first time in my life , I star
" It's rather cold today . How about we have some tea together ? " said Charlotte with a smile ." Yes 1 Immediately ! " said Kana with an excited expresison .At the other world , Chancellor George looked at king Damien and felt perturbed . He was still looking at the crystal in his hands as his energy continued to be drawn by the crystal of power . Damien took the glass of wine next to him and continued to drink ." Your majesty , this is the third bottle of wine you have opened in less than two hours . " said chancellor George ." I am not in the mood to argue with you . Get out !....Cough ! Cough ! " said king Damien as he coughed because of his energy continuously being drained ." You need to put that crystal back with the other half of the crystal or else you will become worse . " said chancellor George with a worried expression ." I don't care . " sa
When Charlotte arrived at the door of the royal palace of Anadol , she felt like she had once again returned to her previous prison .' .......I am back to this prison once again . ' thought Charlotte as she looked at the majestic doors from which she had always forbidden to cross when she lived there before getting married ." Charlotte ? " said prince Diego when he saw her looking at the doors ." It's nothing ! I just feel a bit weird , that's it . " said Charlotte with a smile .He grabbed her hand and softly placed a kiss on it when he saw how anxious she looked ." I have gotten rid of all the things that may disturb you . You will never face anything bad here . This place is yours . You can do whatever you like , you can even punish the king if you want . I will be here holding your back . " said prince Diego with a warm smile .Charlotte smiled when she heard him and felt happy that she had someone that would always be by her side in
