It was the first time that fortuity or fate had brought them so close.Her breath hitched as she sank into his eyes and was astonished by her reflection in his dilated pupils.That closeness didn't only take Skye by surprise, but also Hector, who forgot how to breathe, and his heart was about to explode.His burning eyes sank into hers.They stood still, looking at each other, forgetting where they were and that they were not alone but with all the service staff of the castle present.She dried the drool in her mouth, leaving it arid, and Skye unconsciously licked her lower lip. Hector's eyes trailed down to her lips and fixed on her juicy wet lips.Her cheeks began to burn, and she struggled to fight it off.Her lips parted to answer his question, but someone else's voice overtook her."Don't tell me you're going to kiss, because I already feel nauseous. I will throw up.” Donncha sneered and touched his stomach ostentatiously.Skye jerked back, breaking eye contact, pressing her hand

"Thank you." Skye told him, grabbing a non-existent lock of hair and tucking it behind her ear."It is nothing. Don’t mention it. I want to be by your side until you get used to it. Until you feel that you are at home and not just in your new house," he replied.How does it come and always tell her the right words that relieve her of every doubt, every trace of anxiety and nervousness?They were interrupted by talking coming from outside and she turned towards where the voices were coming from.“What the hell has she piled in there? It is so heavy.” two servants entered carrying a large trunk.Once they noticed that Hector was there, their eyes widened slightly, and they immediately stopped talking.They stopped intending to leave the trunk on the floor and bow before continuing.Hector waved his hand.“Proceed, your time now matters, so don’t waste it. There is no need to do this now. Another time when your hands will be free,” Hector told them, urging them to move on.The two servan

A few minutes later, Skye came out of the chamber and saw him waiting for her.Hector leaned his left shoulder against the stone wall. When he heard the door opening, he looked up and faced her.He didn't smile, and his eyes didn't sparkle like they always did when he saw her. The matter was of great importance to him, and he would not rest until it was resolved. He could no longer bear this weight on his heart. Something had changed and he needed to know. And most of all he wanted to know why. What was his fault? Whatever it was, he had to fix it before the wedding. Before, they stand before the god and join the sacred bonds.Their eyes met and before Skye looked away she noticed the dark circle under his free eye.This sign was well-known from her own experience. The same thing happened in her own eyes when she didn't sleep well at night, and that was mostly when she was still living in her uncle's castle.'But why doesn't Hector sleep well?' she thought.A thought crossed her mind.

The dress flapped behind her as she ran away from him, and the hold on her hair began to loosen until her hair was completely free and fluttered like waves in the wind.For a few moments, Hector remained stunned, and as he watched her run away, all he felt was terror. The terror that he was in danger of losing the most precious thing he had. The terror that he would lose her from his life. At that thought, his heart cracked.He ran after her. "Skye, wait!"Skye kept running. The magnificent scenery she had been admiring until a while ago, had now turned into a blurry image. Tears of despair were streaming down her cheeks.Her vision was blurry, but that didn't stop her from continuing to run and carrying one thing on her mind, to get away. To leave this castle as fast as possible. After all, she was not made to live in castles, only embittered her.She would give anything to return to her village, in the poor hut where she only felt happy. But she had nothing to give. She had nothing

His heart swelled with the longing it had been building up for so long and began to increase its pulse.Her lips were petal soft and warm and carried a salty taste from her tears that had watered them.Blood throbbed in his veins with a scarlet web of desire.She remained motionless, but Hector didn’t lose his courage. He knew that for her, kissing someone was something unprecedented, something she had never tried before. The positive thing was that she didn't back down, she didn't refuse him, and in a way, she gave him her consent.Maybe he should end it here; it was a good start to their relationship. However, the emotions he had been holding back all these years rushed to overwhelm his body. Who can hold back a raging torrent, and how?A fervent desire burned his mind, and he couldn't think of anything else. His fingers longed to touch her, and his mouth to taste her.He had to find out what secrets lay within that soft, full flesh of her lips.He ran his other hand under her flowi

They walked in silence toward the place he had shown her earlier.She still felt a little dizzy, and her mind was a bit clouded from the experience she had just been through, and all she could think about was how he had made her feel.What else did he want them to discuss?Immersed in her thoughts as she was, she didn’t notice that the path had begun to widen, and without realizing it, she was following its line to the edge, fending off him.Hector watched her out of the corner of his eye. His heart flickered with contentment. He had taken a first step to bring them closer. It was an important step, but the goal was not fully achieved.His goal was to make her fall in love with him, deeply and unconditionally, as he did.His deep desire was to love him so much that he could not live without him.Today, he took the first step towards fulfilling this goal, and it was crowned with success.After that, the belief that he would succeed was born in his heart. He possessed patience and perse

"Though what, Hector?" she squeezed his hand. "Did you discover anything?"Hector nodded. "I've never told anyone. I thought it would only cause pain and nothing else, because the king in the early years was waiting for her to come back. He hoped that she would somehow miraculously escape death and return to him. I don't know if he is still waiting for her. He stopped talking about her, but neither did he put another woman by his side. A few years ago, while I was in the woods hunting, I found the bones of an animal. They hadn't moved at all because they were somehow held by the animal's fur. Although the condition was bad due to the years that had passed, one could easily recognize that it was what was left of a horse. Its fur was discolored, but something inside me told me that it was the queen's mare. I looked around to see if I could find anything else... you know…."“Please, stop”. Skye covered her eyes with her hands, “Yes, yes I know. But you didn't find anything because otherw

The next few days were spent in the turmoil of the wedding preparations.Skye and Hector had been unable to meet each other alone since the day of their walk to the garden. They only saw each other at mealtime when they sat all together in the dining room.Beside her, Hector reassured her with his gaze and sometimes managed to squeeze her hand under the table.The day that Hector and Skye had spent in the garden, they had eaten some of the food the maids had brought them, and they returned to the castle. One of the maids escorted Skye to her chamber while Hector went to the library.In the chamber, was Maysie, who greeted her with enthusiasm and asked to know how her time with her future husband was. Her eyes were so bright and full of anticipation that Skye didn't deny her. She chose only what she could tell her without betraying the trust Hector had placed in her.She confided in her about the kiss they shared, leaving Maysie wide-eyed and asking for more details.But Skye wanted to
