Frost Sorrow...They say the day you come of age would be the best day of your life, the day you experience a great sense of freedom.It's the day you are considered to be a woman and all the maids fawn all over you, preparing you for all the suitors that would flood your house. But for me, it's completely different.I don't feel freedom. Instead, I feel trapped.All the years I've spent locked up in our home never made me feel like I was trapped. I never craved to walk out of the front gates and enter the busy streets of Gold land Kingdom.Which is why I feel like I'm about to live my worst nightmare.I clenched my book tight to my chest as I watch the helpers load the carriage with all the necessary items needed for the long travel.I can feel my face morphing into a worried and sad expression all at once. The amount of guilt I feel is indescribable."Don't worry about them, Lady Frost." Mirra Commented from beside me and I glanced at her before I returned my eyes

I held on to the King's arm as he walked me in to the court room.Because it was well known that I had a bad reaction to staying out for too long and the rumors circling around me, the King wanted to wedding to be an in doors affair.He'd mentioned, in passing, that the garden he took his wife was the most magical day of his life. The gates were wide open and the King had welcomed the people of his Kingdom to witness his marriage to the queen.King Viper said that he always wanted to marry off his children in the same garden. But he was willing to make compromises for me.Even though I wanted to tell him as long as I have my mask on, I would be fine for a few hours but I didn't want to disregard the King's kindness.The image King Viper had painted of the garden in my mind was beautiful. But the large court room looked more beautiful that I thought it would be.White chairs were placed facing the direction where the priest would be officiating us. White curtains are draped over the ce

The tension around the table was growing by each passing second. The two brothers stared down at each other without breaking eye contact.it does not take a brilliant man to notice that Prince Barlion and his younger brother Prince Victor do not like each other.Prince Barlion's grip on his knife kept tightening up to the point that his knuckles started turning white, looking like they were about to pop right off.While my husband was angry, it seemed his younger brother was enjoying his reaction.Prince Victor stared at my husband with a slight smile stretching against his thin lips.It was as if he was enjoying angering his older brother."Now Now, dear brother..." Prince Victor spoke as he waved his right hand. "No need to be upset that your brother missed your big day. It's not like I did it on purpose."Prince Victor spoke with such a lazy cat manner that it made him seem like he didn't care for anything at all."Besides..." Prince Victor continued. "I had wanted to come to your

I took a bite of my bread and slowly chewed on it.I was hungry this morning, but my appetite was lost after the walk I took with Prince Barlion and the visit I got from Queen Sity.The though of the other royals wanting to see me was also bothering me.But the dreadful thought of going back to Prince Barlion's chambers tonight made me sick even more.The image of all the woman that walked in to his chambers the night of our wedding kept playing in my head, mocking me just as he and the woman were.Shaking my head, I sat the bread down on the plate and pushed it away."Are you alright, My Lady?" Mirra asked as she walked over to me and sat down on the chair to my right.Mirra placed her right hand flat on my forehead."Are you not feeling well, My Lady?" She asked again.Shaking my head, I gently pushed her hand away before I leaned back in my seat with a sigh."I don't have an appetite, Mirra." O commented as I looked at the small table filled with food."You need to eat something, o

I woke up the next morning to find the space next to me empty. And with how neat it was, I knew he never came to bed.In whole honesty, I am glad he didn't.Getting out of bed, the first thing I did was grab my thick cloth and cover my face. Even though I need a fresh cloth and white flower powder, I wasn't about to leave this room without it.At first, I was tempted to just leave without saying a word. But I was too scared to anger him. So, I decided that I would see if he is still in the room and inform him that am about to leave before I do.Taking a deep breath, I walked over to the door I saw him walk in to last night and softly knocked on it.At first, there was silence and no one answered. But after I knocked again, I heard his voice."What?" He called out in a husky voice."My lord I need to return to my temporary chambers to change and get my medicine. I wanted to inform you of my leaving before I left."I didn't hear him reply for a few minutes, so I leaned closer to press m
