10⁰Walking in the forest part 2.
{Spring Kingdom}
Bella
After a few minutes I decided to get off the horse to approach, I passed carefully so as not to be seen by the guards, if this happened it would be a disaster, a great rate of starting a war would be all the more serious, besides now, I am only queen of two kingdoms, they would surely ask me what I was doing there, and they would surely communicate to their superiors about me, something that cannot happen, I have enough problems to solve, I need one more. I don't want to cause a war over a flower.
As beautiful as the flower is, I didn't want it to stain its name with the blood of soldiers. I didn't want it to be the cause of destruction, nor of breaking the peace contact that was established between the four kingdoms.
It is about 5:00 in the afternoon and I am still sitting here on a log looking at the beautiful tree with its flowers almost ready, I close my eyes when a strong wind blows past me, when I open my eyes there he is again the Iceman, he was looking at me, with his crown shining. His gaze caused me all the unfamiliar feeling.
Now he is also king of the Autumn Kingdom since he also got married, a bitter taste came to my mouth but I didn't know why, and I didn't want to know. I think I spent more than twenty minutes looking at him, it was like a magnet pulling me towards him, his decisive man's posture is visible to anyone watching him for a while, after another five minutes he turned his back and left me there, but I couldn't stop looking at him, until the request for sight just to not watch him. But I was still looking where he had disappeared to, a few more minutes passed to infimate me and I headed back to the castle.
During the way back I couldn't get the ice king out of my mind, it scared me that I couldn't be with him in my mind. I decided to stop on the way and organize my thoughts, also the truth was I didn't want to go back to the castle, the air there is suffocating, nauseating, full of false friendship it is amazing how everyone can hide their true face. I simply didn't have the stomach to be like them, which is why I can't stay in the same environment for long.
I got off the horse and let it loose so that it could ride anywhere to feed. While I took the opportunity to rest lying down under a tree. I confess I would have fallen asleep by now if it wasn't for Luz, who came up beside me, shouting non-stop. He must be thirsty after all the grass he had eaten.
- He is thirsty, my big boy. - I said smoothing his scalp. - Shall we go? Even if we don't want to, we can't stay here all afternoon. - I told him to climb on top of him again.
I rode fast, however it was not to arrive early, but to feel the freedom that the womb brings in your body. Riding became my passion for the simple fact that on a horse I could travel wherever I wanted, without needing anything else but food and water.
I dreamed of going on an adventure on my horse, seeing places on another continent, and even discovering new lands.
To my consternation, I arrived at the palace, climbed down from the light and handed him over to the servant who was already waiting for me.
- Take good care of him," I ordered.
- Yes, ma'am," I said, getting up and heading for the stable.
I entered the interior of the castle wishing not to find anyone on my way to my room, I want to bathe and rest to face my experience in the palace, but my wish was not immediately granted as I found Antony standing in the middle of the room at the entrance to the castle, it seemed as if he was waiting for me.
- Where were you, I sent the servants to search the entire castle, and they didn't find you. - said Antony approaching me, really expecting me to arrive.
I don't know if it's my impression, but I think Antony is angry with me, that's all I needed to ask for permission to leave the castle. I just want peace, but everything that happens is to take my mind off it.
- I was riding, since there is nothing for me here. - I said, my voice changing.
- You're a queen now, Bella who behaved like that, stop being a spoiled little girl - Anthony said right in front of me another step our bodies touched, but since I didn't want that to happen I pulled away from him.
- That's all I needed, if he wanted me to be a queen he would stop participating in the meetings between the advisors to know what's going on. But no, he wants to do everything without telling me about it. - I said angry, because he is the one who won't let me help him.
- If I left the kingdoms in your hands, surely we would all be commoners, you would be like your father who ended up selling his own daughter in order not to lose the kingdom, since he was running out of money. - The anger was already consuming me, so I left him before I did something that could bring me bad consequences.
But I was stopping myself from giving that jerk a good slap in the face, he is a complete fake jerk, and I thought he was a good person, but I was completely wrong, I let myself go, in his good guy way, but in fact it was all an act on his part to get what he wanted, which was to marry me to become king of the two kingdoms, only agreeing to marry so soon because of the financial consequences of the palace.
If it weren't for that, I would never marry him, even if he was the last man on planet Earth.
