Chapter 29 - A Kiss To Heal
The prince woke up early morning on the fourth day with the defervescence of his fever.
Present in the room was Sir Culdran, his doctor, and his assistant, Lady Faye, and two other maidservants taking out the used linens from his room.
The exhausted doctor immediately approached the prince and checked on his status, then Lady Faye followed, bearing a welcoming smile upon seeing the prince awake at last.
“Your Highness, good morning,” Lady Faye greeted softly. She bowed her head and waited for His Highness’ answer.
“Lady Faye...good to see you,” Ruen replied, voice weak but with depth, “you look so tired.”
Lady Faye smiled in response as he stated the obvious.
“Your Highness, I am truly relieved that you are healing well with your injury. It has been days when you were unconscious.”

HER MAJESTY'S LIFE Chapter 30 - The Almighty King's Death
It took a lot of strength to restrain herself from slapping Ruen’s face when Lianne was able to escape his hold.Though it would have been her only meager revenge, to her confusion, she couldn’t bear to slap him the second time after what he did to her in the library for stealing her very first kiss.Lianne gave him a sharp glare as she stood at the bedside wiping her moistened lips to dry what was left of his ardor. Though she hated it, she couldn’t deny the mounting heat within her caused by his kisses.Her face turned in a deep shade of red and Ruen could clearly see it.“I was wrong to even let my guard down. Even though you’re injured, you still play your games quite well,” she spat the words out.Ruen gave no expression of remorse, instead, he reached for the glass flute that she left behind in the pillows and handed it back to her.
HER MAJESTY'S LIFE Chapter 31 - A Kiss of Longing
The kingdom accordingly was surrounded by sorrow; of course, with respect to the late king. He was after all the King of Regaleria.Despite the fact that the man was a power-hungry, greedy, abhorred human, it was his due right to be given credit for the progress and fame Regaleria had acquired.Princess Lianne was in her balcony, sitting and staring at the scenery she had been accustomed to since she was relocated to the new chamber. The area was shaded by the length of the mansion’s roof as it was almost sunset, something that the princess was pleased about.An hour ago, a maidservant gave her her afternoon tea. It seemed that the Head Servant was busy in the preparations for the next day’s dawn procession and burial of the late king at the Royal King’s Grave that she herself wasn’t in attendance of the princess.When the servant entered the princess’ room, Lianne notic
HER MAJESTY'S LIFE Chapter 32 - Free As a Bird
It was early in the morning when she woke up upon hearing the whinnying of the horses stationed in the front of the mansion.It was almost sunrise she thought when she saw the fiery sun slowly climbing up the wall of mountains on the east side of the mansion. She put on her white robe and then walked outside her balcony. She had already anticipated then what she was about to see.There were millions of people gathered outside the fortified entrance gate of Regaleria. Few selected dignitaries were at the tail of an enormous glass block adorned with gold, silver, and high-priced stones.There was a chimera sitting at the facade of the block and surrounding it were blood roses and ferns. Of course, inside the glass block was the dead body of the King wearing another viciously adorned velvet robe.So typical of Garlow, she thought and then moved on to survey the people standing behind the glass block.
HER MAJESTY'S LIFE Chapter 33 - The Picture Frame
The semi-concrete roads of the town were almost void of residents.Lianne and Lenora passed from one store to another only to find that the stores were either closed for the day or the vendors were with the procession.The town looked like it had gotten through the battery of time.Some of the structures had cracks on the edges, some had their paint fading, and others covered by moss. When they reached the plaza of the town, Lianne saw a statue of the late king build in the center of the fountain. She cringed at the sight of it.“This statue would become memorabilia soon enough, but never will this be brought down. His son wouldn’t allow it,” the princess whispered low whilst staring at the statue forty meters high.The plaza constituted of a natural wide lake. It was surrounded by mainly red oak trees and pines that grow to high lengths.Th
HER MAJESTY'S LIFE Chapter 34 - Return of His Majesty
It didn’t take the princess long for her to visit back the town.After her breakfast, she immediately took off riding Arinna, but this time, she took another route.She decided to scout the south side of the mansion where a couple of meters away was the famous white sand beach connected to the wide stretch of blue-green ocean.It was a scenery she had always hoped to tour since she had seen only a small part of the ocean from her balcony, which was facing the east side; so there was always the sunrise and the mountains greeting her every day.She so much wanted to swim the ocean and taste the saltiness of it. Now, it was her chance to plunge into the water and feel the burning light of the sun touching her skin.She left her horse and her riding dress just a few meters away in a stony rock ledge when she arrived at the shoreline, confident that no one would find her swimmin
HER MAJESTY'S LIFE Chapter 35 - Prelude to Their Meeting
Early morning of the third day since the entourage’s departure, Lianne was already feeling anxious for the next day of which she knew the entourage would arrive, but she was oblivious of the prince’s subsequent premature arrival on this very day.She knew if she would remain in her room or within the vicinity of the mansion, then she’d feel more uneasy, so she once again went to ride on her horse back to town.She passed through the forest on the north side and took a basket of apples on her way.The town was livelier than it was two days ago and many of the stores were open for business now.There were horsemen riding on the streets and carriages passing to and from the market place.A group of children and adolescents were running and jumping at the sides of the road as she passed by looking like they were happily playing some kind of game.
HER MAJESTY'S LIFE Chapter 36 - Trapped In His Arms
The water trickled down Ruen’s hair to his torso as he took a refreshing shower to cleanse his thoughts.It would have been one good way to relieve his stress, but every time he watched the water run down his skin, it reminded him constantly of how the liquid would mold well with Lianne’s body.It would seem that the water was luckier than he was for it could touch her and feel her without qualm.“Lianne...” Ruen murmured in desperation as he closed his eyes and recollected his thoughts to that last kiss they shared.It ached his heart somehow knowing he would never see her again.Would she be angry if he would come looking for her then? Would she be angry if he were to find her and have her imprisoned inside the castle?Of course, she would.He violently shook his head to clear the thoughts away.
HER MAJESTY'S LIFE Chapter 37 - Almost His
Lianne was lying underneath him, her legs secured together and flexed to provide him no entrance to her modesty. Her pupils dilated as she began to realize what he was about to do based on the very position they were in.“Your Highness,” Lianne spoke, her voice trembling. As opposed to her anger earlier, her eyes showed fear now as he looked at him. “Don’t...don’t do this.”His face lowered close to hers. She, in response, closed her eyes and shifted her head to the side. Her cheeks began to spread a deep shade of red, her hands shook, and her heart pounded agonizingly fast.“No, please...”She braved to look at him again as she pleaded her case. She expected his expression to be of greed and lust, much like Cain and the duke, but it was different. Entirely different.Though Ruen’s orbs were icily cold, it showed a visible fer
