The next month pretty much went faster than Sophie could have imagined. There was so much to prepare for their wedding and everyone was busy. She didn’t have to worry about any of the preparations but she did do a lot of public appearances, some with Lance, others alone. Even though she had a lot going on with her and a lot of things to learn. She still felt so happy. The people of Otano not only accepted her as their queen but they also made sure she knew that she was loved by them. All the backslash that she had feared for didn’t come. Of course, she knew not everyone would support her but a great number did and that made her so happy. Nothing good comes easy so it was no surprise that she had a pretty hard time getting used to her new status. Lance did his best to make everything very easy for her. He was a darling man and she felt so lucky to have him in her life. He listened to her and was always considerate of her wants and needs. Sophie stared at herself in the mirror as the s
The woman who was no longer isolated has become one of the important people to Sophie who saw her as a mother figure and the older woman treated her like a daughter, giving her tips and advice on how to navigate her status as the queen and also how to be a good mom. Sophie had so many good people around her which made everything easy for her and she was thankful to every one of them. Sophie let out a nervous sigh when she arrived at the cathedral. It was finally happening. She was marrying Lance. They announced her entrance and Sophie started walking towards the aisle where her Lancelot stood waiting for her with the most genuine expression. His eyes were filled with love and pride. She could see. Her heart felt full. Sophie felt her eyes water as she got to him. He had a bright smile ready for her and he looked so handsome in his royal regalia. So handsome and so hers. After today, she would finally be able to call him her husband. She still couldn’t believe it was really happening
Their little princess was born a little over a month later. A healthy seven-pound baby that came into the world in all of her glory, ready to be the great queen that was her destiny. As Sophie held her baby in her arms for the first time. She couldn’t help the smile that formed on her lips and the happy tears that fell from her eyes when they met with Lance who had tears in his eyes too. The memory would stay with her for a long time. After the birth, she slept for about three hours and when she awoke, her little princess was in the room with her. Sophie got out of her bed and walked to the baby crib. She picked up her little one and exhaled. Her baby was beautiful and so perfect. “Thank you,”She muttered to the pretty child for she was the reason Sophie’s luck changed forever. Both she and Lance already picked a name for her. Aurora. Which means dawn just like how her conception created a new dawn for Sophie. Sophie had a lot to be thankful for and made sure to not forget. “My fam
MATURE CONTENT AHEAD!!!"Sophia, your presence is requested at the king's chamber,"Diva a co palace maid announced as she entered the staff quarter."What? Why? It's way past twelve already,"Sophia complained not wanting to leave her bed, it was still her day off and she is supposed to resume duty by eight in the morning."I don't know but I envy you a lot,"Diva said laying on her bed, she took off her shoes and jacket."Why? I am called to go see the king, at after twelve in the middle of the night and you are envious? what's there to envy?"She asked not understanding her, why will her working extra time be something to envy? She would give anything not to go tend to the king right now, was the king purposely overworking her because she was foreign? That would explain a lot."Whatever just go see the king, you can't keep him waiting, run along,"She replied, Sophia shook her head as she exited the room and walked the distance to the main palace, the palace is a huge mansion with
Sophia stared at the pregnancy test kit in her hand and prayed from the depth of her heart that it showed only one line."Please, please, please," She muttered in fear. But her prayers weren't answered because, like the previous three test kits that she had used, it showed two lines."No, no, no, please no," She pleaded to wish for it to be a dream, but she knew it wasn't, she was pregnant and the baby, the baby belonged to the king, she sat down in the toilet and bowed her head as tears dripped from her eyes.What had she expected when she had slept with the king without protection, it was all her fault.Now, what is the going to do? She didn't have anyone here to talk to, she came here for work and the only people she knew where wee co-palace works, she couldn't talk to them either, because they were all part of the kingdom, she was like the only foreigner working here, once upon a time her life has been in Briscout, she had been a Nurse and even though her life wasn't that great
Sophia sat in the car, with her hands tied, mouth gagged and blindfolded, she couldn't do anything, the drive continue for more than an hour, she wasn't sure where the man was taking her and couldn't even defend herself, she had to wait till they get to were they were going, she didn't even know if she will ever make it back alive, she just said a silent prayer to heaven wishing that they will protect her even if it is just because of her unborn child, she can't die like this, she didn't want to die like this."Okay, we are finally here,"The driver said as the car came to a stop, Sophia heard him open the car and get out and before she knew it, he was at her side, he pulled her out of the car with so much force that she almost hit her head on the car, he pushed her on the ground, before removing her blindfold, her eyes took a while to adjust after the blindfold was removed."Hand it over,"He said stretching out his hands."Hand what over?"Sophia asked, she was shocked by how calm s
"Your majesty,"His special advisor said coming to stand by him, Lance looked at him."What is it?""Sorry to disturb your relaxing time but the soon to be queen wants to speak to you on the phone,"He revealed, Lance was in no mood to speak to the would-be queen, in fact, he wasn't in the mood to speak to anyone, he was waiting for the maiden he sent out to return, he had asked if she had returned a couple of times and it was the same report, she should have been back hours ago, it wasn't that hard of an assignment that he gave her."Tell her to tell you whatever she wants to say and you can relay it to me later, I am not in the mood to speak with anyone right now,"He ordered, walking back into his chamber."But my king,""No, but Patrick, or else you want to spend the rest of your week in prison,""Sorry, my king,"He said and left, Lance checked the time again, it was past twenty o clock already."Why isn't she back?"He asked himself as he stood up and walked out of his chamber,
Sophia was beyond exhausted from walking for hours but still, it felt like there was no hope for her, it was already midnight, everywhere was dark and she was nowhere near finding a house or anyone, this was bad, the more she walked the more it felt like it would be better to just sit in one place and wait for her death because as it stands there was no hope for her, she was exhausted, her legs were shaking, she was cold even though she had on so many layers of clothes, if she doesn't die of exhaustion, hunger will do the work or there maybe wild animals too, either way, she looks at it, she was going to end up dead, she just didn't want to die without fighting, she couldn’t just sit and lose, which was why no matter how tired and hungry she was, she kept walking, it looked like it was going to rain too, she hoped it won’t, that would make it worst for her, she just wished she had super powers this moment that would have helped her through this.No way had she thought her life would t
