The love of a King のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

Through out that day I could only think about Lisa and what she had told me. The evidence against her wasn't too strong. That was probably why they hadn't executed her. I wanted to help in some way but I didn't know how. I remembered what Lisa told me about the strange fabric that was wrapped around the bottle. She said that she has never seen it before. Shouldn't that be some sort of evidence that she knew nothing about the poisoning?If they could see that she doesn't own a material like that. I was tidying up the kitchen with some maids. With Lisa being imprisoned, we were one maid short, which meant extra work. As I worked, a thought suddenly occured to me. It was a strange thought but I still considered it. I finished up my work quickly and ran to my shared room. I opened up my sack and threw all of my clothes on the bed. I started to search desperately for a particular clothe.When I finally found it, a smirk came unyo my face. "A strange colourful fabric, just like what Lisa sa

The sun was about to set when we arrived at the palace. When the woman descended from the carriage, her mouth hung wide open. 'She was at the palace!' Her shock was very evident, then confusion came forward. What was she doing here? Why had this girl and this extremely handsome man brought her here? Who were they? So many questions ran through her mind. "Your Highness, you're back." George said in a monotonous voice."I want all of the maids gathered now." His voice came out gentle, but Aurora felt that his actions would not be.""Right away." The woman who stood beside Aurora, started to put two and two together. The man was the King! She had spoken to the king, the man who was surrounded by many unspeakable rumours. She trembled on her feet and she cursed under her breath. Why was she here? Did she do something wrong?All of the maids were gathered in the dining hall. Wondering why they've been summoned, they all started making up reasons.Gwen was searching around for her sister.

Wrapped in Alexander's arm, I tried my best not to look at the people that were standing in front of us. Three gruffly men who eyed me like I was a piece of candy were in a heated conversation with the king."Don't overstep your boundaries Jeff." Alexander warned in an icy tone. The man named Jeff scrunched his nose."And what boundaries are those? I didn't do anything wrong." This Jeff guy was talking to the king of Devon as if he were some messenger. I wasn't too surprised though.We were currently at a poorly built tavern in the outskirts of Devon. It was probably past midnight and here I was, still out with the king. I shouldn't have accepted coming with him. But it's not like I had any other choice. He still would have forced me.*About three hours ago*It was dark outside. The royal family had already had dinner and the maids were busy cleaning up. Me and Lisa spent our free time talking about different matters. She kept on thanking me, saying that she would have been dead if I

The meeting was over and I sighed a breath of relief. I was a table away from them, although I pretended not to listen to them, I heard every word they said. That is why I am here, to be a witness for the king, in case of any eventualities. When I realized they were done, I nearly jumped off my seat. I did not want them to see how much in a hurry I was to leave, so I tried to conceal my eagerness.Before we left, Jeff gave me look as if warning me to watch my back. The thought of him coming after me frightened me to my bones. 'Why did you punch him Aurora? You could have just screamed for help and the king might have heard.' I thought. When I stepped out of the tavern, I realized that the carriage wasn't there. 'How are we going to get back?'"We are going on foot." He said. My eyes widened with shock. 'But it was past midnight!'"It's so that we lose them." He said. He had already started walking and I rushed to move beside him. Normally, I shouldn't walk beside the king but I was wo

The next morning;A small groan escaped my lips as I woke up. I covered her face with my hands because of the sunlight that pierced through the curtains. rubbing my eyes, I suddenly realized that my shared room has never been this bright. Snapping myself. out of my hazy state, I realised that she was indeed not in her shared room at the palace.'Where I'm I?' I wondered. The bed I slept in was quite big, not as big as the one's at the palace though. I then remembered last night's events. All I could recollect was being in the carriage and eventually going to sleep. I looked around the room and my eyes fell on the King. I had spent the night in the same room as the king! I was so shocked. They must have stopped for the night. But why did they sleep in the same room? I wasn't wearing my coat which left me with my blue ankle length dress and my shoes were at the side of the bed. I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my neck. That was probably from the way I slept in the carriage. I got up fro
