The King's virgin bride 28. What is this that I'm feeling?
Selene couldn't help but shift her gaze towards the landscape visible through the carriage window. Her heart was racing, yet she felt happy and deeply confused. A sense of shame washed over her as she recalled what had just transpired with the king in the middle of nowhere. It wasn't right; she hadn't been raised or educated this way. Still, it felt so good that the desire to continue experiencing it grew within her."Anyway, we will be spouses," she thought, attempting to shake off that feeling of guilt."Is something wrong?" Frederick asked when he noticed Selene's hand had gone rigid, ceasing its thumb movement around his hand.Selene turned, not quite grasping the question, but a shiver ran down her spine upon seeing the king's intense gaze fixed on her. She swallowed but didn't dare to say anything. Instead, she shook her head and offered a timid smile."You don't need to hide things from me," the king said, surprising her. "I know something's bothering you. Please, tell me."One
The King's virgin bride 29. The king's bride has been taken!
Selene was petrified at the sight of the five men surrounding her. She didn't recognize any of them, nor did she understand what they wanted from her, but the truth was, they were ready to attack her. She looked to the sides and decided to take a risk, before they could do anything to her, so she started running towards a space between the men, the only problem was that it was taking her further away from Baron's house."Don't run, doll," said one of the men, and they laughed.They were mocking her, and it was too late when Selene realized she had fallen into their trap, as they made her stray farther from the guards, and two more men, whom she hadn't seen before, came out to meet her, trapping her tightly in their arms."Help!" the young lady screamed, but they quickly covered her mouth with a dirty and foul-smelling cloth, which made her stomach turn.Selene tried with all her might to free herself from their grip, but it was not possible, the men were much stronger than her and out
The King's virgin bride 30. This is distressing.
Selene didn't know what to do; her desperate cries left the guards just as distressed. They were torn between helping the king and keeping the bandits imprisoned. The assailant had fallen to the ground once again, as if he had fainted due to his exertion. However, they couldn't afford to let their guard down, just as they had learned.Moisture trickled from Frederick's side down to his leg. The pain felt like scorching hot coals, and he placed a hand on his side as his vision began to blur. Would he die? Was this how his life would end? The pain left him breathless, and Frederick didn't want to close his eyes. He fought to stay awake, especially for Selene, but with each passing second, that task became increasingly impossible."Frederick," Selene's voice was torn by pain and anguish. Her face was bathed in tears, and her heart was pierced by thousands of daggers."My Lady," one of the guards called, touching her shoulder. Selene recoiled at the guard's actions and cried out in despai
The King's virgin bride 31. Selene!
The maids bowed their heads in a sign of respect, while the woman who responded incorrectly had to bite her tongue and accept Selene's command."As you command, my Lady," she whispered through clenched teeth.Selene looked at the women for a long moment."There is something else I need from all of you, and it's imperative that you understand this clearly. No one, absolutely no one, can know what has happened here. You are strictly prohibited from speaking, murmuring, or even mentioning the king's name," Selene ordered. She hated sounding authoritarian or imperious, but Frederick's life was more important than anything else.The maids nodded again, though not all of them were able to remain silent."The Queen Mother has to be informed," the woman protested.Selene fixed her gaze on the woman, and her demeanor changed in the eyes of the maids, especially that defiant woman."If the Queen Mother or anyone else finds out, none of you will remain in this house. Have I made myself clear?" s
The King's virgin bride 32. My King
"Selene... My Selene""I'm here, Your Majesty," she whispered.Selene placed the letter on the table and approached Frederick, she touched his forehead to measure his temperature, it was still warm, but it no longer seemed to burn as it had before."I'm here, I'm not going anywhere," she promised, taking his hand and squeezing it between her fingers.Frederick moved restlessly, his heart was agitated by memories that placed Selene in grave danger."My Lady, I will not allow anything bad to happen to you," Frederick murmured, furrowing his brow. "No matter if I have to give my life," he added with pain.Selene couldn't help her tears from overflowing down her cheeks as she heard what Frederick was willing to do for her. A heaviness formed in her heart, what had she done for him? Nothing! She had done nothing, she had accused and challenged him. She had done many things she shouldn't have done, but it was too late for regret, all she could do was improve the things she had done wrong in
The King's virgin bride 33. I am at your service.
Henry looked at his mother with some resentment, perhaps because of the slap she had given him, or maybe it was because she hadn't allowed him to have the life he desired and was pushing him to limits he hadn't imagined reaching so soon."You have to be smarter, Henry," Anabel said, composing herself. She had lost her composure, which was not becoming of the mother of the future king of Astor."I should be allowed to do things my way, mother. I remind you that without Frederick, the future king of Astor will be me, not you," he pointed out.Anabel raised an eyebrow as she looked at him. "You're just a fledgling, Henry. Do you think you can handle everything on your own?" she asked, her voice tinged with irony. "Realize what you've just done. You can't even justify the reason for a kidnapping. Selene is not your target; it's Frederick. Without him, everything, absolutely everything, will be yours. Do you understand, dear? Or would you like me to explain it to you in simple terms?" she
The King's virgin bride 34. A Fiery Bath
Selene thanked him and joined Frederick's side, taking the sponge and bowl to moisten the rest of her body."You'll end up soaked," Frederick warned as he saw her lean over her voluminous dress."It's okay, Your Majesty," she said."The last thing we need, my Lady, is for you to fall ill too. Why don't you shed your dress and prevent yourself from getting cold?" Frederick suggested, making Selene blush."Your Majesty!" she exclaimed."I promise not to look more than necessary," he said, letting out a small laugh that caused a twinge in his side.Selene swallowed, looked at her dress, and realized that the hem was already soaked with water that had carelessly fallen on the floor, which could make her task more difficult. Nevertheless, it seemed improper to undress in front of the king just like that."Don't feel pressured. It was my mistake to make such a proposal," he spoke hastily upon seeing Selene's expression.She nodded and didn't say another word. She took the bowl with some wat

"My Lady, come to my side," the king requested as she finished helping him lie on the bed. He had already summoned the physician, so all that was left was to wait for the guard who had gone to fetch him."Your Majesty, I'll take the chair and wait," Selene replied, and Frederick frowned."I want you by my side, my Lady," he insisted, internally rejoicing as he saw his betrothed's cheeks blush. "I don't want to have to order it," he warned with a mischievous smile that left Selene speechless."The doctor will arrive any moment, Your Majesty," she whispered; however, she was already sitting right beside him, much to the king's satisfaction.Frederick placed a kiss on Selene's shoulder, then rested his head on it and closed his eyes.Selene didn't move; she was afraid that doing so might hurt him."Does it hurt?" Selene asked."Mmmm," Frederick purred, inhaling Selene's scent."That's not an answer, Your Majesty," Selene refuted, turning slightly, causing the monarch's head to slide, and

The months following the coronation were full of emotions, Selene and Frederick eagerly awaited the moment of meeting their first child, Eleanor was sure it was a boy because of the shape of the Queen's belly, Samantha opted for the idea of having a little niece running around the gardens, while the parents only prayed to God that their baby would be born healthy and strong.It was that morning, near sunset, while Samantha and Selene were taking a walk in the garden that it all began and the entire castle was turned upside down."Oh, for God's sake!

The King's virgin bride 77. The Queen Consort
Over the next few days, Frederick took great pains to keep Selene's mind occupied, sometimes unable to do so. I saw her looking at the garden, distracted, I couldn't blame her, I couldn't expect her to forget what happened overnight, like everything, this too would have a process and he would be there to accompany her."You should be getting ready, what are you doing here, love?" Frederick asked, catching Selene's waist as she looked out into the garden."I'm nervous," she muttered.Selene felt an emptiness in the pit of her stomach, that night she would be crowned as the Queen Consort, she would occupy the place that the Queen Mother had held during her years at her husband's side. It was a great challenge for Selene, but she was confident in herself and considered herself very capable of playing a good role for the kingdom and the people."I understand you must be, today is not only about your coronation as my Queen, but it's also the day we can make public the arrival of our firstb

It didn't take long for the Queen to rush to the newlyweds' bedroom, as did Samantha. It was impossible for anyone in the castle not to have heard the screams and blows of the guards, in addition to Selene's screams, of which he had not been aware."What happened?!" The queen shouted as she saw Henry on the ground, in a pool of blood and a chilling expression in his eyes."Oh, for God's sake! Samantha exclaimed terrified by the scene and her stomach churned, so she turned her body to run out of the bedroom, but arms caught her before her escape.For a moment Marcus thought that Samantha had been affected by Henry's death, an emptiness formed in his stomach, but it was short-lived, when the young princess noticed that he was in her arms and clung to his waist with a tight embrace."He came in to hurt them..." Hurt us," she sobbed softly and cradled her head on Marcus' chest."He won't hurt them again," she whispered against Sam's crown.It was a moment for both of us, even if they were
The King's virgin bride 75. I'll End Your Happiness
"The woman looks like she was swallowed by the earth," one of the royal guards said in frustration."Damn it! His companion shouted in frustration and slammed the old table that still stood in Anabel's battered house. Going back to the old house didn't help them at all. There was no sign of Anabel."By this time the King must be married, and because of that damned woman we couldn't make it," growled the other man, sitting down on the filthy floor. Everything was just as they had left it the last time they were there, indicating that Anabel did not return."The King has entrusted us with this mission because he trusts us, do not lament and get up. "We must keep looking," the senior guard ordered.The search continued and was fruitless, so they had no choice but to move away from those lands abandoned by man, a dry place that could hardly give life.Meanwhile, Anabel entered the castle, taking advantage of the distraction of the party, the woman clenched her fists tightly and cursed the
The King's virgin bride 74. Wedding Night
Marcus took a deep breath and walked over to his fiancée's face, her eyes shining like stars guiding him along the way. Her lips slammed into Sam's cheek, very close to the corner of his mouth. Marcus placed a tender kiss, which drew a sigh from the princess.He was quite a gentleman, that was the greatest audacity he could do, no matter how much he wanted more; However, Samantha had a different idea and before Marcus could get away from her she grabbed him by the shirt and carefully pulled him towards her, joining their lips in a delicate kiss, although this was short-lived, as the desire was overwhelming and the kiss intense."I love you so much," Frederick whispered in his wife's ear, sending a stream of excitement through her body."Let's get out of here," Selene replied quietly. The king smiled and quickly sat up to continue the celebration privately.Frederick and Selene bade farewell to their guests; However, none of them left, as the party continued without the bride and groom
The King's virgin bride 73. The Great Royal Wedding
"You look beautiful," said the Queen Mother, and approached Selene. He caressed her cheek gently. You look like an angel.Selene wasn't able to answer, her eyes filled with tears that she forced herself to hold back, because she didn't want to ruin her makeup, but hearing those words comforted her soul, while breaking it into pieces. Those were the words she should have heard from her mother, but now it was the Queen who protected and cared for her like a daughter."I've brought this," the queen announced, and put a silver brooch with small blue flowers in Selene's hair."Thank you," whispered Selene, who was overly excited."Good luck for all the success of your marriage and reign," the Queen snapped. The bride couldn't take it anymore and threw herself into Leonor's arms, she received her calmly and with all the affection of which she was capable."Are you ready yet?" Sam asked, entering Selene's bedroom. As soon as she saw her friend and sister-in-law in her mother's arms, she stop

Norwood gritted his teeth as he realized that the King's men were coming, he looked at Regina with seriousness and determination. I had been thinking and analyzing what was the best way to save her from prison, but there wasn't much choice."What's the matter, who's coming?" Regina asked, getting out of bed."The King's guard," he said morosely."Are they coming for me?" He asked in a trembling voice.The Count did not know the answer, so he looked at Regina, took her by the arms, and spoke:"It's likely—""Don't let them take me, I don't want to go to prison," she cried, clinging to her father's hands."I'll do everything in my power, Regina, but you have to do things as I tell you, otherwise there won't be anything I can do for you. He could never face the king and be victorious."What do I have to do?" She asked sorrowfully. I'll do whatever you tell me, but I don't want to go to jail," she sobbed.The Count nodded, he had only a short time before he was called by the men to the vi
The King's virgin bride 71. We Caught Henry
Frederick made sure to guard the carriage in which Henry was transported back to the castle, where he would be taken to the dungeons. He didn't want to risk an accomplice trying to do anything to free him."Edward! He called to him, and the guard rode up quickly."Tell me, your majesty."What happened to Henry's mother?" He asked, fearing that the woman would try to do something to complete the plans she had with her son."A group of guards must be seizing her right now, Your Majesty," he informed him, and Frederick nodded. He didn't want to rejoice until he was sure that everything was going well, but it was hard not to feel that everything was finally taking the right turn.Anabel heard the hooves of the horses approaching along the road of stones and dirt, her heart stirred, especially because she had not heard from her son for several days and the last thing she heard in a bar near her old house was that he was being sought dead or alive. Something inside her told her that she was
