Chapter 20: Curse Dominus sat on the throne, on his lap was the queen’s corpse starting to rot. You would have expected the nobles to make a fuss as they first did. But they’re all dead now, and so were the useless healers and scholars who did nothing to awaken her. He sat there as his men brought a new healer before him. This time, he knew she was more than that. “A witch you are, are you not?” he said, his voice serious even while he pulled his queen closer to himself. He like this…

Chapter 19: Wake “Queen Mary,” she looked at the person who just entered her tent. It was her uncle, the grand duke. “Uncle,” she looked straight into his panicked eyes as he came near her. “Let’s get away from here my queen. I shall bring you back to the palace,” he avoided her eyes and offered his hand to her. Mary nodded calmly and followed him to the carriage waiting for them outside. There was no hesitation in her movements nor does her face betray her emotions. As she…

Chapter 18: Always Mary tried to ignore the dagger-like looks being thrown her way by the woman who introduced herself as the chieftain’s fiance. For someone engaged, she has been unusually touchy with the queen’s knight, even publicly touching his arm and whispering things in his ear. Mary felt something bubble up her chest as the woman leaned closer to Dominus while she was serving him his dinner. Dominus doesn’t seem to mind and so did the rest ignored it like it was common between the…

Chapter 17: Redirection Dominus crumpled the telegram he had just received, he was about to tear it to pieces when the queen arrived. “Sir Dominus,” she called his name as her eyes darted to the piece of paper in his hand. He tried to fake a smile as he greeted the queen. She is breathtaking as always. Her hair was kept in a neat bun adorned with jewels, exposing her milky shoulders. “What is it?” she asked, looking intently at the telegram he held in his hand. “Nothing my…

Chapter 16: Library Dominus finally felt at peace as the day for their departure arrived. To say he wasn’t at ease in this place is an understatement. But what irritated him is the queen trying to keep her distance from him. He wondered what it is he did wrong. She has just suddenly been avoiding him, and when they are together she wouldn’t even say a word unless he asks her something. “What is it?” he asked, irritated as the queen bumped into him and tried to walk in the opposite…

Chapter 15: Fools in Love Dominus is becoming impatient. It has been days with nothing but boring diplomatic tea parties and evening dances. He is tired of seeing people get too close to the queen, those darn nobles getting the privilege of kissing the back of her hand. He could have easily smacked their faces away from her precious hand. But what right does he have? He is not anyone in the queen’s life but her knight. He let out a frustrated growl as he looked out the carriage, he has been…

Chapter 14: Breakfast Dominus felt his cheeks burn as he thought about the events of the night. It only took one smile from the queen, to make him feel all over again. He cursed the gods as his eyes stared at her beautiful lips. “Good morning, Sir Dom,” she greeted him as he entered the balcony. The table was laden with food and two sets of plates and cutleries were perfectly laid facing each other. He frowned as he thought of whom the queen will be having breakfast with, in her own…

Chapter 13: Rest Dominus was not happy about the queen’s insistence to return to the castle and still grace the winter ball despite the immediate threats to her safety. To him, no amount of politics can equal to the queen’s well-being. But he couldn’t do anything as the queen begged him to return her. And so, against his will, he has escorted her to the cold Aurorian castle that stood proudly above snowy hills. He grunted when a noble lady yet again tried to talk to him, scaring the poor…

Chapter 12: Lies Dominus cursed the gods again and went to her side, his steps as fast as he can make them. The queen smiled when Dominus was standing in front of her again. “Now, here with me,” she ordered him as she scoot over and laid down. Dominus took his cape off and handed it to the queen. “Wrap your body with it,” he commanded before he laid beside her still. The queen didn’t listen and instead straddled him, giggling. “I’m not cold,” she complained. “Fuck,” he…

Chapter 11: Closer It was almost as if the fool has been testing his patience. Dominus creases his eyebrows as he watched the earl whisper on the queen’s ear, leaning closer than necessary. It was the day after the sleepless night he suffered and the tiny excuse for a man dared to invite the queen to his estate on what he described as a tea time. Dominus was even instructed by the queen herself to not be in the garden with the two, he actually had to hide from them as he peeked from the…
