Chapter 21

The next morning, Gregory decided to spend the day with me. “I do not like to see you sad, you always seem deflected. You are the most privileged woman in this kingdom and yet you never smile,” said the king as soon as we finished breakfast. I narrowed my eyes at his comment, the most privileged woman in this kingdom? I had been treated as a possession! How did he expect me to be happy if I had been brought to Dranda against my will?!“Addison, I am sorry that I make you so unhappy. I had a different idea about what our marriage would be like, I thought that we could be happy together. It is been over two months since our wedding and you still act as if you hated me. I have placed my kingdom at your feet, I have tried to win your affection, I have been patient, but I have achieved nothing. You still look

Chapter 22

The next morning I woke up and found a white rose that Gregory left for me next to me in bed. I inhale its exquisite fragrance and beamed. Cora came in with a small envelope in her hands.“My lady, this arrived for you,” she informed me as she handed me the envelope. It was a note from Margaret, her daughter had fallen ill so it was not going to be possible for her to visit me in the near future. I felt disappointed, I intended to ask her about what had happened between Dranda and the kingdom of Trobet. Since that was not going to be possible now, I decided to ask Cora. “Cora, do you know what the problem between Dranda and Trobet is? Tucker’s sons mentioned them during dinner and…”“And what?!&rd

Chapter 23

The following days I spent most of my time planning the tea party with the help of Cora. It was the first event I was organizing as queen so everything had to be flawless. As much as I trusted Cora and her decisions I still wanted to get an outside opinion on this matter, just to be certain that we were on the right track. Since Margaret was busy taking care of her ill daughter, I had to rely on Amelia Rose, Tucker’s wife, because I considered her the second best option. "It was a pleasant surprise to receive your invitation, Your Majesty," Amelia Rose admitted."I am sorry I did not do this sooner, but I have been very busy," I lied.Now I was more familiar with the way people in Dranda spoke, white lies were in common use for everyone.We talked for a long time about trivialities before I confessed to her that I needed help planning the tea part

The next morning, I was awakened by Honey kissing my face. I smiled at my puppy although I still felt discouraged about what had happened during the tea party. I look to my side, but Gregory was no longer there, instead, there was a note written by him. "Dear Addison, I hope you feel better. I have canceled your hearings for today, a carriage will be waiting for you in case you wish to go out into the city as you wanted. With love, Gregory " The note instantly made me feel better. At least I was going to be able to distract myself and not spend the

Chapter 25

We entered the modest clinic and, to my surprise, the doctor received me with the warmest of smiles. If he felt anger towards me he did not let it show at all. He took care of Sadie’s wound right away while Tucker held her because the poor thing had never been treated by a doctor and she was afraid of him, she kept putting her hands in the way and taking Maurice's instruments away.Meanwhile, I walked around the small clinic, Maurice had thousands of medicine bottles with labels and numerous books. On one of his shelves, I found something that made me gasp with horror, inside a glass box were the three largest and most terrifying snakes I had ever seen. I took a step back, horrified by what I was seeing. Tucker and Maurice came to my side to see what had happened. “What is going on?” Tucker asked as Maurice giggled."Her Majesty has found my most prized

Chapter 26

Gregory decided it was a good idea to invite Norton, Oliver, and their families to have dinner with us. We received them in the royal dining room. Norton and Mary Terese had a 10-year-old daughter named Selena. Oliver and Arlet's daughter, Mandy, was not as handsome as her counterpart, she was withdrawn and had inherited the most unfavorable traits from her parents. Both girls were the same age and surprisingly well-mannered. Oliver's son, Milo, was a shy seven-year-old boy, and his manners were as impeccable as his sister's. The evening was pleasant. I really liked those people, especially Norton and Mary Terese who were always smiling and friendly. After dinner, the kids excused themselves and left the dining room, I assumed they were friends and wanted to play outside. We, the adults, stayed in the dining room while we drank wine and chatted; as the wine flowed, the atmosphere became more and more relax

Chapter 27

A few days later, I received an unexpected visitor: it was Sadie Polk. “Your Majesty, I come to apologize for my behavior from a few weeks ago and thank you for your help after my accident. I know I should have come a lot sooner, but I was feeling very embarrassed by what happened, please forgive me,” she apologized. “I have nothing to forgive, I am sorry that I upset you with my questions that day,” I said. “I am very glad to see you here, would you mind taking a walk with me?”Sadie hesitated for a moment, perhaps she was afraid that I would ask her more questions about the Trobetians, but since the queen was granting her the honor of requesting her company, she could not refuse."Of course," she replied with an affectionate smile.We left the Queen&

Chapter 28

Almost at dawn, I heard the door of the common area open and I hurried out. Gregory had returned safely. Without thinking, I threw myself into his arms as if I were a normal wife happy to have her husband back. He placed his arms around me, holding me close to his body without saying a word. Not once in the months that we had been married had I been so happy to see him and now I was overwhelmed by joy. “Addison, are you all right?” His voice sounded dejected.“I am fine, and you?” I noticed that his sleeve was stained with blood. “What happened to you?!” I asked concerned. “Do not worry about me, I am fine. It was just an arrow that grazed me.”He leaned back on the couch, he looked exhausted, he closed his eyes for a few moments to rest. I sat next to him.

Chapter 29

By the time the tea party took place, panic had subdued, people had returned to their routines and were trying to forget the past. It wasn't the first time the kingdom had been attacked by the Trobetians and it surely was not going to be the last time.As the carriage drove me to the tea party, I told myself that this time would be different. I practiced my best smile and I tried to convince myself that none of the women at the party were a match for me. Only I was the queen, I had all the power and I could not be intimidated by my subjects.When I arrived, Florence, her husband Luke, and her seven-year-old son were waiting for me outside. The family greeted me as it was proper and then Florence guided me to where the tea party was going to take place.“Your Majesty, I am sorry for the intrusion, but do you think it was wise to invite Estella and her mother? After what they did last time, I do not think even they expected to be invited,” Florence said as soon as we were alone."I know,

Chapter 30

That night I could not wait to see my husband, I wanted to tell him what had happened at Florence's house. For the first time, after all this time, I had taken his advice and I wanted him to know about it. I waited for hours for him in the common area between our bedrooms with Honey by my side. Finally, almost at midnight, Gregory came in. He seemed taken aback to find me still awake. “Did something bad happen?” He asked as he looked me up and down.“No... nothing bad,” I replied.“I am glad,” he said, and then turned around to go to his room.“I did what you told me!” I exclaimed before he went in.Gregory paused for a moment and then came back into the common area, but he kept his distance from me.“What was that?” He asked with a weary expression on his fa
