The King's faceless wife. chapter 35
I walked over to Prince Barlion's chambers amd I was surprised when I realized that there wasn't any shadow following my every steps.I stopped once to look around, still not believing the freedom I felt at the mere thought of not being seen from the dark hall corners.It felt good.On my way to his chambers, I was constantly thinking about our conversation in the garden.After Prince Barlion had admitted that he didn't like it when I walked out on him, I felt something weird. Something was flipping and fluttering in my stomach. I had felt a flattered stomach before but that felt different.I'd placed my right hand flat against my stomach as soon as he said that and looked away.His gorgeous face shining in the sun did not help my stomach.Because it had been lunch hour, I told him that I needed to go to my temporary chambers and he had wished me a good meal, as did I.It felt like the whole conversation we had had opened a gate way between us. It felt a lot more lighter to be around

Barlion Great...I looked down at my sleeping wife with my head tilted to the right. With her head rested at the center of the large open book and her arms handing down my chair, she couldn't look more adorable.The thick cloth covering her face had slipped a bit to the side, revealing the smooth skin of her right jawline and some parts of her chin.The sight of a small scar caught my eyes and I leaned a bit closer to look at it.There, on the side of her chin and a small line scar that looked like it faded a while ago yet, with her pale skin, it stood out.I wonder how she got the scar?Reaching out, I pressed the tip of my thumb on the scar and felt it under my finger.The contact woke Frost up and she let out a small groan before she squinted her eyes open.I pulled back and watched as she held on to the left side of her neck with her left hand and squeezed it a bit. Frost slowly lifted her head up from the book, causing the thick cloth to drop back and c

Frost Sorrow...Letting out a soft groan, I stretched my hands over my head before I rolled to my side and hugged the pillow next to me.I took in a deep breath and inhaled only to be met by Prince Barlion's scent.Throwing my eyes open, I jerked up in bed and realized that I was sleeping in the Prince's chambers.As I was looking around his chambers, I remembered everything thay happened the Previous night. From getting to Prince Barlion's chambers to finding him in his study, from sharing such an intimate talk to almost taking my cloth off, from the loud bangs to the uncomfortable sleep by the desk and finally from learning the truth about Damon to getting tucked in bed by my husband.Letting out a sigh, I ran my fingers through my hair before I stood up.I glanced at the window to see that it was fully covered and not a single ray of light slipped in. I should probably go to my temporary chambers by now.With another sigh, I picked up my cloth from the small table by t

I tried to walk past him but Dorian Great stepped in my way. I stepped aside to move around him yet he stepped in my way again.My heart was pounding in my chest in the worse possible way."Don't leave yet." Dorian purred out as he took another step closer to me. "How about we... play a little.""Please Step away." I asked before I tried to walk past him again but there in was, stepping in my way again."Oooh begging already?" He laughed. "It's too soon but I like the sound of it."Realizing that I wasn't going to make it past him, I made the mistake of turning around to walk the other direction.I might not be able to get to the safety of my temporary chambers but the main dining hall, the art chambers and the kitchen was near me.I took a few steps but the burn on my scalp made me scream. I was pulled back, unable to truly register that Dorian Great had slid his wicked fingers through my hair and used it to drag me back."Don't walk away from me, you whore." He roared out and it was

Barlion Great....The previous day had been great. The news Uncle Jeremy had delivered to me had made my day.Old man Damon's corrupted ways were really good for me. Not good for the Kingdom but good for me.Cassian was already handled and now so is Damon.The man is a hot head and had tried to go for my throat when he came to talk to me, just like how uncle Jeremy and I had predicted.The man might be sixty, the same age as my father, but he too has not lost his touch in the art of making a threat.He had swore up and down that he would ruin my life. He had even raised his hands up to strike me. Of course, I wouldn't let him.With the simple reminder of who my father was and how he hated thieves and liers, the man was floored just like Cassian was.When he was calm enough to listen to me properly, I told him that I had damning evidence against him and that I would be glad to forget about all of it if he gives me his vote and support my claim for the crown.Damion had

I watched as uncle Dom sunk to his knees and pressed his hands flat against each other."Please, Barlion, Please." He begged.All it would take to get to Dorian was a single shove, but I hesitated. Squeezing the handle of Sir Hunder's sword, I tried to reason with myself. Dorian deserves to have his head chopped off for even thinking to touch my wife. Yet, here I am, hesitating to drop the sword on his throat and end his pathetic life.Father must have seen my hesitation because he marched in to the room and snatched the sword out of my hand."Hunder, take this scum in to one of the dungeons. He will await his fate there." King Viper roared before he he handed the knight his sword and walked out."What?" Victor outrageously yelled. "What do you mean await his fate? You should have his head on a like right now and get it over with.""Enough!" Father snapped at Victor. "Dorian will receive the same court time as any other man. His case will be presented first."Father stormed out of th

Frost Sorrow...The world felt still.My body was numb and my mind was foggy.At first, I embraced the fog, letting it stop me from going back in to consciousness. I tried to hold on to the bliss quite but the fog slowly started pealing off of my body, forcing it to jerk away.My eyes slowly opened on their own accord no matter how much I tried to keep them closed. I peeked around the room and realized that I was in my temporary chambers. I tried to push myself into a sitting position but the numbness quickly lifted off of my body, leaving me totally aching.I let out a soft gasp when a force weighed my body down, pressing me against the soft mattress of my bed."My Lady!" I heard Mirra's voice and I turned my head to the right to see her slowly approaching me."My Lady. are you awake?" She asked.I tired to answer her question with words but my throat was dry, preventing me from letting a squeal out.Mirra must have seen my discomfort because she immediatl

Barlion Great... Six days. It's been six days since I last saw my wife, since I let Dorian Great ride out of the main castle in the most luxurious carriage.It's been six days since she told me to get out of her temporary chambers. It's been six days since I betrayed her.I can't blame Frost for wanting me to leave her alone. I had let her down in the worse way possible, broken my promise to her and shattered the peace and bond I was building with her.Just seven days ago, I had Frost in my study, sitting comfortably on my lap and sharing part of her childhood with me.I had her in my arms yet, I just had to hurt her again, didn't I?I let out a sigh as I washed blood from my hands and made sure my nails were well clean too.Discarding the blood socked clothes, I stepped in to the tub amd sunk down in to the warm water.Being in this bathroom reminds me of my wife.It reminds me of the way she cared for me when I was badly wounded, the way she would carefully caress my

Frost Sorrow... ***One year later***Bar sighed for the fifth time tonight. He laid under the covers on his side with my back pressed to his bare chest, his right hand fingers brushing against my large belly.I couldn't see him but I could tell that he was wide awake. But even if he was awake, I could tell that he wasn't here with me. He was somewhere in his mind.Because if he was here, he would have noticed that the soft strokes of his fingers to my belly were forcing the baby to kick me harder.Placing my hand over his, I stopped the movement."Bar?" I called out but he didn't answer."Bar?""Hmm... Yeah?" He finally replied."Where did you go?" I asked."I didn't go anywhere. I'm right here." Letting put a groan, I pushed myself up to my elbow and dragged myself to a sitting position."Are you worried about tomorrow's wedding ceremony?" I asked.Barlion sat up next toe and pressed his back against the large head board."I'm not worried about the ceremony. I think." He replied w

Barlion Great...The sight of her made my heart stop. Those frost blue eyes clashed with mine and the air left my lungs.All I wanted to do was run up to her, take her in my arms, feel her... Is she real? She has to be, otherwise I will lose it once and for all. I took a small step in to the dining hall, my eyes still trained on her.The conversation in the dining hall had long stopped and I could feel eyes on me. But I didn't dare look back at any of them. If I did, I was too scared that she might disappear.I watched as Frost slowly stood up and walked over to me. Her steps had no hesitation in them, unlike mine. When Frost and I finally stood before each other, all I needed to do was reach out and touch her to know that she's really here.Frost didn't say anything at first. Her lips were slightly open and she looked like she wanted to say something.Taking a deep breath, I slowly raised my right hand up and cupped her cheek.She's really here. My Frost is really here.My

Frost Sorrow...My stomach was making a roll when our boat got closer to the dock of the Gold Land Kingdom.It's been two long years... Two horribly long years.I was nervous for many reasons but the biggest one was finally seeing him.My father had already sent forward for a small carriage to be rented so by the time we reached the dock, a small carriage was waiting for us.Father kept my hand in his the entire way to the dock. It felt like he knew of my nerves. Each squeeze he gave my hand gave me encouragement.When we arrived at the dock, a carriage waited for us.Stepping out of the boat, I loved the feel of the cold air blowing against my cheeks, my bare cheeks. The strands of my hair brushed against my face as the wind blew, reminding me that the last two horrible years were actually worth it.There were a few eyes on my father, Sir Hunder and myself as we hopped in to the rented carriage.As the driver slowly led his two horses through the Kingdom, my ey

I walked in to the large library o next morning.The gates towards the other entrance of the library was not open yet so it was empty and quite. I walked through the large shelves before I made it to the sitting area.Just as I thought, I found Victor sitting at one of the large tables, looking straight ahead at the displayed book in a glass."Thought I'd find you here." I commented, drawing Victor's eyes towards me before I walked over and sat next to him.Victor returned his eyes to the book.I stared ahead and pride filled me at the sight of the single book placed in the glass.Anyone who came could look at it, admire it but was not allowed to touch it as it was incomplete."The King's Faceless Wife." I read put the titled before a wide smile stretched my lips.About a year and a half ago, after Victor had gained full conscious and was able to move around his chambers, the large library was the first place he visited.Lady Waina, bless her resting soul, had suggested that she writ

*** 2 years later ***I sat at the head of the council table, going through yet another council meeting with my council men.Uncle Hero, like always, too the lead. He reported about the matters of our people. He sat next to his son Jeremaya, who I'd made the Lord of all tales.It's a new seat on the council. After I'd met with King Ezgard of the Half Shifter Kingdom and he bragged about all the spies he has in all the other Kingdoms, I thought why not?Jeremaya has always been a quite kid and he knew how to blend in to a crowd so he was now, the Lord of all tales. The head of spies who collect important information related to our Kingdom from other Kingdoms.Landon continued with the financial reports he has for today then, surprise surprise, his twin sister Layla continued with the warfare reports.I'd made her Lady of warfare about a year ago with the council's great persuasion. Landon, most of all had supported her the most and she was able to prove herself. She had a hidden talent

Watching the first snow fall alone without Frost made me ache. She'd been excited about the first snow. I'd caught her a few times as she was looking out the window, expecting it to fall any moment before she'd gotten hurt.She didn't even get to see it before she left.I don't know how long we stood by the docks. I stared off across the water, wishing her a safe travel.When the people of our Kingdom started flooding the docks, Sir Hunder requested that we should leave.It took everything in me to turn my back to the water and walk back to the carriage.Sir Hunder and Mirra hopped in after Lady Winter did and we rode back to the main castle.Sir Hunder and Mirra were huddled at one side and the head of Nights refused to let her out of his arms. It wasn't like Mirra was complaining or anything. The two looked too cozy, reminding me that I wouldn't have that anymore.'She will return to you.' My subconscious tried to assure but I didn't dare answer it.No matter how long it takes, I

The chambers fell in silence.I watched as Lord King and Lady Winter shared a look.I looked over to Frost and realized that her eyes were following me with worry. Letting out a sigh, I looked back at Lord King."I want to talk to my wife alone first." I commented when I realized that I couldn't be selfish enough to keep her from going with them.Lord King didn't look like he was going to let me have a second with her but then he dropped his eyes to Frost and they softened."We'll need to stock up for the journey. It will take a while to get there so we need to take everything." Lord King commented as he looked back at me.I glanced at Sir Hunder and nodded my head. I had no other words. If They are really going to take my wife then they will have everything they need and more for the journey. Sir Hunder bowed his head before he walked out of the chambers. Lord King and Lady Winter followed after him. Mirra was the last to leave Frost and I alone in our chambers.As soon as the door

Barlion Great...I had my arm wrapped around Frost's waist as I looked down at the head stone of Uncle Jeremy grave.'Lord Jeremy Great. A Brother, An Uncle, A Friend and A True Protector.' That was what's written on the head stone.I read it over and over again.The head stone was made from a large green gem, one found only in our Kingdom.The green gem glows a different shade of color at the contrast of the son, each angel changing color.Our black smith had carved the words in perfect shape and hade covered each letter with black paint so it would be easier to read.The rest of the royals had left a whole ago and I could feel Frost leaning on me. She was tired but she didn't say anything just so I would spend more time with Uncle Jeremy.I let out a sigh before I turned to Frost. She looked up at me with her frost blue eyes, her gaze sad and her eyes bloodshot. Those tears would have burned the spots on her skin.After I pressed a kiss against her forehead, I leaned d

Frost Sorrow...I dreaded waking up again but my body forced me to.No matter how long I closed my eyes, it wouldn't stop the pain from blinding me even more.Stifling a groan, I slowly pealed my eyes open and I looked up at the ceiling."You're up?" Victor whispered from beside me and I turned my head to look at him."Yeah. You?""Lord Kiza was here to change my bandage he left a few seconds ago after giving me the sleeping herbs." He whispered and he looked back at me. "It's king of weird that this is the first time were talking to each other even though we've been sleeping together for the past week." I chuckled at his commented."How are you feeling?" He asked."I'm fine." I replied with a soft sigh. "What about you? You don't look good."Victor was pale and his hair was sticking to his forehead because of the sweat. "You should look at yourself." Victor commented with a chuckle.A small smile crawled on my lips but I quickly stopped it when it felt the red spots on my
