“Are you sure?” Alexa croaked out, Yes she was angry but she certainly felt broken, knowing she was tied to a womanizer was bound to do that to her. Her kingdom might have illegitimate children before a rightful heir and she has to make an heir soon because she cannot allow a child whose blood was not even related to Asteria to be on Asteria throne, that would only happen after her death and she was not planning on dying unless her child was already old enough to succeed the throne.
“I am so sorry, my princess.&rd
Betty was on her way to get a present for Jared from Alexa in the market when she bumped into him and her heart stopped for the first time. He was like a dream, her very own fairytale fantasy which was strange because they rarely did fairytales about people like her but Betty did not think of that fact. All she thought about was that she was in love and so her tongue loosened.Flynn was waiting in his disguise, it took a while for him to transform his appearance but it was needed, nobody ought to know his real identity and he needed to have the kind of information that could come from only someone close to the sickly happy couple and that was either Betty or Mona.Mona would never betray Jared, not after she knew what it was like to be tortured because she was and Betty was too loyal to be bribed and yet because of feelings, something intangible that allows you to trust someone completely, she still found herself betraying her kingdom unknowingly but no one
The queen was in her solar when the news that today was Jared birthday and if only her daughter would organized something small, that it would be that amazing, she was going to make a woman out of Alexa in not distant future although she knew that it would never be a complete lady but at least the hope was there and what was even better was the fact that she had chosen someone who was going to be okay with Alexa no matter how unladylike she was and not only was he okay with that, he seemed to enjoy Alexa like that.“My queen, you seem happy.” Her handmaid said looking at the queen face even as she exchanged the color of the thread which the queen used for embroidery, the maid was used to doing this favorite pastime of her mistress and after years of repeat performance, she could do it with her eyes closed.“Why will I not be?” The queen smiled. “My daughter is calmer and less violent and even when she is violent, her husband ca
Alexa felt her heart breaking when she heard the sounds that were coming from her husband’s room, a room which her had was on the door knob of and was about turning, a room which she had already made up her mind that she was going to seduce her husband in before giving him the perfect birthday present for him.She listened to the muffled whimpers of pleasure and could not help but think of how Jared had once again not only made a fool of her but hurt her deeply. There was only on activity which would make a woman make noises like that and it certainly was not beating. When the woman gave a loud cry, Alexa tears fall just as she let her hand fall from the knob, she could not even find the strength to turn the knob and see who was with her husband. No, she was not even going to have the strength to stand every soon if she remained there as she listened to the sound of her husband pleasuring another woman.She took to her heels, running and even when she
Alexa remained on her mother’s laps as her mother’s hand sift through her hair as she calmed down slowly.When Alexa sighed and sat straight, letting her mother’s hand to fall from her hair, the queen sighed. Maybe she was too hard on Alexa for the past few months because she could tell from the rigid way which her daughter held herself that he was ready to be berated again for her actions and sadly, she was right.You can hardly be a monarch and a parent at the same time, that was why her husband was the one closer to Alexa and she was the one who seemed like she had the kingdom’s best interest at heart. She did have the kingdom best interest at heart but it was also because of the reason that the kingdom was Alexa. If the two ever divided then she would always pick the side of her daughter. Jared gave the right answer when he presented it to her before that her daughter came first. She knew she had chosen well but this, it was some
His wife was one of the hardest persons to pin down in Asteria. Jared sighed as the kitchen Maid told him that his wife just walked out, less than five minutes ago, he did not know where else he was going to find his wife to and just as he was about giving up to go and check all her favorites places in her home, from top to bottom again in uncertainly while he wanted for another meal so he could catch her in the kitchen because she no longer eat in the Dining room with her parents because he could walk in anytime. Jared saw Betty, his wife maid that was just as elusive as her mistress and without letting her know that he was following her, he saw her walk into the barn where Alexa was sitting and eating her meal.“Your highness, I brought back one of the finest wine from the newest crates your father just received.” Betty said proudly as Alexa looked up with a smile only for her smile to die when she realize that Jared was standing behind Betty.
Sometimes, the queen felt that her husband was too calm. Hearing that Flynn has summoned she and her husband for an emergency meeting, because of his whims, not like the kingdom was in danger or anything of sort, it was enough to make her teeth grate together in anger and it did not help that today was some of her days where she felt generally weak and frail."I cannot believe he summoned you in your castle and own kingdom to be around for a meeting and you are taking it like it is usual for something like this to happen." The queen paced before her husband."My love, remember that you are not too strong today, calm down and let me explain..." The king tried to interfare only for the queen to glare at him, sometimes he wondered how he survived with his two strong willed women. And to think that the queen usually complains about her daughter when she was just as bad as she was."There is no way in which you can explain that his actions are norma
Jared set Alexa on the group suddenly and although he was tempted to leave her even before she gets her bearing as her eyes turned her, he just could not be that wicked to a lady whom he had a soft spot for."I will kill you for that." Alexa moaned, trying to stop her eyes from spinning around or the place she was to stop moving even though she was not, she did not know which one was happening."Your stubbornness did that to you. certainly not me and you are aware of that fact." Jared returned, knowing Alexa would like to glare at him but she did not have the strength to, not whole her eyes were still spinning and Jared could say he warned her not to move around too much on his shoulder but as usual Alexa does what Alexa wants even to the detriment of herself."What do you want?" Alexa asked Jared even as she regained her balance.Jared feeling of hurt increased, she did not want to spend even a minute longer in his presence
Alexa was struck with a nightmare playing over in her head. One that kept playing over again and again. The hitting, the penetration, the threats and they all started with someone lying on her in between her thighs. Then kissing her neck while his hands rested on her mouth before the threats started. Those were the sequence of what happened every single time he came over. More than seven times.But Jared was not like that, Jared was her husband and he was the one holding her. When that knowledge penetrated her head. She started to fight out of her nightmare, something which happened years ago and should hold no power over her again and when she finally came to herself, she felt her body being rocked in arms that were familiar as Jared voice kept on telling her that she was okay and she would be okay. For better or worse.She lifted her hear to look at Jared who sighed with relief over that fact that she was looking at him and seeing him. "Alexa.
