OpheliaAlthough it was already time for dinner according to the maid, a shower felt like an important need because I felt grimy from all the traveling and tensed up by the whole situation."I'll take a shower first." I said, and she nodded."Well then, if you'd excuse me." She replied before she curtsied and walked out of the room.I spotted the bathroom door, and I quietly walked in. Everything was already prepared: a warm bath and plush towels. It was almost like they could read minds.I stripped off my clothes, sinking into the warm water with a sigh. It felt like a load lifted off my shoulders as I let the warmth envelope me.Wrapped in one of the towels, I padded to the wardrobe, curious what clothes Alric and his people had provided.The doors swung open, revealing dozens of Northern-style dresses. Shorter undergarments, long necklines...these revealed a lot more skin than I or anyone from my kingdom would usually show.My cheeks flushed just looking at them. Was this his idea?

Ophelia"Be careful.." I muttered almost inaudibly as I slowly let go of his hand. Alric nodded slightly, his face still tensed and stiff.I slipped back into the night, my legs moving faster than normal. I could still feel his eyes on me as I moved and even though they felt uncomfortable, it still gave me the protection I had yearned for all those years."Let's go." I heard his voice echo before he disappeared.As I walked down the long hallway, I just couldn't help but wonder why he kept asking me what I wanted. Doesn't he have the right to find himself a true mate?And why did I even show him my vulnerability? Now I'd not only rid him of the privilege to be united with his mate and breed future heirs, I'll also subject him to a life of loneliness…."It's that stupid wine!" I grunted under my breath. My door slammed shut, slightly shaking the hinges and I immediately dropped into the bed.That aside, what exactly could be this urgency at this hour of the night? I also read somewhere

OpheliaThe warm morning breeze brushed in through my parted drapes, grazing my bare shoulders until the sleep had completely disappeared from my eyes.I grunted softly and rubbed my eyes open, but then I felt a weight on my bed, one that obviously wasn't mine. My mind spiraled as I tried to move, but the heavy arm around my waist pressed firmly against the bed, pinning me down."Alric?" I muttered, confused and worried at the same time. He smiled softly at me like he didn't just show me how easy it was to hold me down with barely an arm."Good morning to you too, dear wife." he responded. His rough morning voice scratched my ears and I just lay there, staring at him.Alric held my gaze, but then his hands lifted and he held something else. My face.He cupped my face in his hands and leaned closer, our lips were now only a breath away from each other.My mind raced, my heart pounded in my ears as he stared into my soul, I wanted whatever this was. My hands slowly left the bed, rolling

Ophelia"Your majesty.." Laura greeted, lowering her head slightly. Alric nodded at her and his eyes shifted to me. I froze under his gaze...I always do."I see you've been busy, my lady." He said softly. I wanted to speak, but I recalled Valerie's threats, the condescending words from those gossiping maids, Laura's warnings...A cloud of jealousy hovered around me and I turned cold."You may leave.." Alric ordered Laura and she bobbed her head before leaving."I'll need you later Laura, we still have a lot to discuss!" I called after her."As you wish my lady.."Alric didn't look away from me and his stare was starting to make me really uncomfortable. I looked away and tried to move, but he held out his arm, blocking my path."Is there something bothering you?" His voice rang in my head."No." I retorted firmly. "There's nothing bothering me your majesty, I'm just busy practicing my duties as the Luna you want me to be..""Then why are you ignoring me?" He shot back."I can ignore my

OpheliaLaura held my hand and squeezed gently, anger rose to my throat but I listened to Laura's unspoken cautions and took a deep breath to calm down.Valerie was the first to notice my presence and I spotted that smug smile on her face."Good morning, her majesty!" Valerie sneered loudly. Alric glanced in my direction, but he barely even looked at me for more than two seconds."Good morning your majesty." Laura greeted Alric and slightly bobbed her head. "You disappeared last night, and her majesty waited until she couldn't wait anymore.."I tried to stop Laura from speaking further but she gently pulled her hand away from mine, ignoring my whispers behind her."Is that so?" Valerie snapped. Her eyes narrowed down to me, sizing me up and down like fresh meat in the market."Do you have anything to say, your majesty?" Laura insisted but Alric barely looked down from his horse. I swallowed the lump in my throat as his silence made me want to disappear completely."Alric, that is utte
