Frederick walked hurriedly down the corridor of the castle, until he reached the front door, at the same time that Edward and the guards who accompanied him stopped in front of the castle."Your Majesty," Edward greeted and walked toward the king."Tell me you have good news," Frederick said, but the guard refused."We didn't find him, it's like he's disappeared from Astor," she said, and Frederick cursed inwardly, his hands clenching into two strong fists."Did you manage to find out anything else?" The king asked with obvious frustration."That's right, Your Majesty. You were right, but I found more," Edward muttered, so that the servants nearby would not hear."Come, let's go inside," Frederick said, and turned quickly, followed by the guard.On their way to the king's office, they came face to face with Selene, who was coming down the stairs to go to lunch; However, when he saw the faces of the two men, the hunger vanished."They didn't find it, did they?" The young woman asked, a
Before leaving the office, the Queen went to the mirror that rested in the corner of the room. It was a full-length mirror, with a frame carved in wood and inlaid with gold, which King Oliver had specially ordered her to make, but which she did not want to have in her bedroom after she was widowed. Leonor finished wiping her face, arranged her hair, and made sure it wasn't obvious that she had been crying... And he sighed."I'll go and see how Selene is, because she wasn't very well," the queen said and saw in the reflection how her son's eyes opened behind her and walked to where she was."What happened to Selene?" He asked worriedly, and Leonor smiled."Lunch didn't sit well with him," she informed him, and Frederick bit his lip."Do you know?" He asked and swallowed hard."It's not what I expected to happen, but I'm looking forward to it," Eleanor said, and Frederick smiled painfully. It is urgent that they get married, so as not to give way to gossip."I know, mother. I wish it wa
The Count hurried down the corridor, he hadn't said anything, but in the little space his daughter had left open at the door, he caught sight of something that caught his eye from the side of his daughter's balcony and he feared that something bad was going to happen to her. The poor man did not distrust his daughter, but thought she was in danger. Something inside him told him that Henry might be the one who was hanging around, looking for a place to hide, but his home wouldn't be that place. Her loyalty to the Crown was above all else, and she would never allow her daughter to be touched by Henry, who was nothing more than a vile rat, not unlike her father, who had been able to betray his own family out of ambition.Regina's heart was fluttering and it wasn't because of her recent surrender, it was because of the decision she had seen in her father's eyes, if someone came into her room they were going to discover her and she couldn't allow it."You've got to do something, Regina," H
Frederick was immediately put on alert, the castle guards rushed up to the newcomers and gathered around them.The king soon changed his clothes and left his chamber, coinciding at the same time with a bewildered Selene, who as soon as she saw him ran towards him."What's going on?" She asked worriedly, imagining that it might be an attack on the castle or perhaps, Henry had returned."I don't know, love. Go back to your room," Frederick said. Deep down, she feared that Henry would come after Selene and not be able to protect her."Be careful," Selene pleaded quietly, as Samantha and the Queen Mother appeared in the hallway."Son?""Go back," Frederick said sharply. Just imagining something happening to them made their blood run cold."Come with me," the queen suggested, Samantha had already arrived at her side and grabbed her mother's hand. Selene—" he called to her. Selene looked at Frederick and he nodded, so the young woman walked to Leonor's bedroom."Mother, take care of them,"
Frederick made sure to guard the carriage in which Henry was transported back to the castle, where he would be taken to the dungeons. He didn't want to risk an accomplice trying to do anything to free him."Edward! He called to him, and the guard rode up quickly."Tell me, your majesty."What happened to Henry's mother?" He asked, fearing that the woman would try to do something to complete the plans she had with her son."A group of guards must be seizing her right now, Your Majesty," he informed him, and Frederick nodded. He didn't want to rejoice until he was sure that everything was going well, but it was hard not to feel that everything was finally taking the right turn.Anabel heard the hooves of the horses approaching along the road of stones and dirt, her heart stirred, especially because she had not heard from her son for several days and the last thing she heard in a bar near her old house was that he was being sought dead or alive. Something inside her told her that she was
Norwood gritted his teeth as he realized that the King's men were coming, he looked at Regina with seriousness and determination. I had been thinking and analyzing what was the best way to save her from prison, but there wasn't much choice."What's the matter, who's coming?" Regina asked, getting out of bed."The King's guard," he said morosely."Are they coming for me?" He asked in a trembling voice.The Count did not know the answer, so he looked at Regina, took her by the arms, and spoke:"It's likely—""Don't let them take me, I don't want to go to prison," she cried, clinging to her father's hands."I'll do everything in my power, Regina, but you have to do things as I tell you, otherwise there won't be anything I can do for you. He could never face the king and be victorious."What do I have to do?" She asked sorrowfully. I'll do whatever you tell me, but I don't want to go to jail," she sobbed.The Count nodded, he had only a short time before he was called by the men to the vi
"You look beautiful," said the Queen Mother, and approached Selene. He caressed her cheek gently. You look like an angel.Selene wasn't able to answer, her eyes filled with tears that she forced herself to hold back, because she didn't want to ruin her makeup, but hearing those words comforted her soul, while breaking it into pieces. Those were the words she should have heard from her mother, but now it was the Queen who protected and cared for her like a daughter."I've brought this," the queen announced, and put a silver brooch with small blue flowers in Selene's hair."Thank you," whispered Selene, who was overly excited."Good luck for all the success of your marriage and reign," the Queen snapped. The bride couldn't take it anymore and threw herself into Leonor's arms, she received her calmly and with all the affection of which she was capable."Are you ready yet?" Sam asked, entering Selene's bedroom. As soon as she saw her friend and sister-in-law in her mother's arms, she stop
Marcus took a deep breath and walked over to his fiancée's face, her eyes shining like stars guiding him along the way. Her lips slammed into Sam's cheek, very close to the corner of his mouth. Marcus placed a tender kiss, which drew a sigh from the princess.He was quite a gentleman, that was the greatest audacity he could do, no matter how much he wanted more; However, Samantha had a different idea and before Marcus could get away from her she grabbed him by the shirt and carefully pulled him towards her, joining their lips in a delicate kiss, although this was short-lived, as the desire was overwhelming and the kiss intense."I love you so much," Frederick whispered in his wife's ear, sending a stream of excitement through her body."Let's get out of here," Selene replied quietly. The king smiled and quickly sat up to continue the celebration privately.Frederick and Selene bade farewell to their guests; However, none of them left, as the party continued without the bride and groom
