Chapter 32: Separate Chambers
"I suppose it went well," Mother said.
Sotis I wondered how she coped with her son acting so cold. As a mother I’m sure it would hurt her, but the way she acts, like it was a casual thing from Cedric, was he always like this?
Forget that... the main reason you’re here, I didn’t mind if Cedric was around, It only makes it interesting.
"Mother, there’s sothing I need to talk about" I began in a serious tone.
"Whatever it may be it should wait after breakfast"
"It’s very important Mother"
"What is it then?"
"I think it’s about ti I had my own chambers"
Mother’s gaze fell on
Instantly, I felt Cedric stare but I didn’t spare him a glance.
Mother frowned.
"Whatever do you an my dear?"
"I heard from my dearest Husband that it’s traditional after a month of marriage for a wife to have her own chambers, and only co in contact when necessary" I state with a smile.
And of course I did my own research before coming here, even if Cedric told
so, I don’t believe his words, so I took the liberty of reading so books Mother left
about the Laws of the Empire, I just searched for what I needed and it turned out it was traditional for separate chamber after a period of ti.
"Yes it’s traditional but what’s the hurry my dear, you and Cedric have only been married for weeks"
"Tomorrow makes it a month Mother" I said with a dashing smile.
And of course I did check the date, I was surprised it was already a month, has it really been that long? How ti flies.
"Has it?" Mother said with a thoughtful face.
I eagerly nod my head.
"I suppose it has"
I smiled more, finally facing Cedric who didn’t take his gaze off . He was now leaning the chair, a hand against the table, as his fingers table the smooth wood, gently.
I gave him a smug look, resisting the urge to stick my tongue at him but that would make
childish, but I so wished I could.
"Cedric dear forgive
I didn’t check the calendar, I haven’t realized it has been a month"
Cedric was still silent, I was beginning to think he was mute, because he hasn’t said a word since I brought up the topic. Was he angry? His eyes weren’t dark, surprising enough they were calm and his usual cold glance. Did the bathhouse really happen?
"Not at all Mother... Sylvia should have her space"
Okay I didn’t expect that, but what was I thinking? That he would say no? Of course not Sylvia this man was not ATTRACTED to you!
"Hmm I suppose," Mother said.
I gave a sigh of relief so my plan worked, easily. I took a glass of water slurping it.
"Sylvia dear, are you with child yet?"
I instantly choked on my water.
"Mother it has only been a month" I said with flushed looks, I peek at Cedric and then I saw a side smirk flash his lips, did I hallucinate that?
"Ha yes... forgive , can’t bla an eager mother wanting to hold her grandbabies soon?"
I blushed hard this ti, she said babies, was she hoping for a castle full of them? I wouldn’t bla her though, anyone would want to raise a child other than Cedric.
I giggled at the thought.
"Anything the matter?"
"Not at all mother" I said in amusent.
"So when do I move out of the chambers?" I asked eager to get this started.
"Well you ca-"
"Excuse " Cedric said, rising to his feet, we both turned to him.
"But Cedric my dear you haven’t touched your food yet"
"I’m full" his words as he walked out.
Mother gave a heavy sigh.
"Sylvia are you sure it’s the right ti for your Chamber, it’s just been a month"
"I assure you mother it is, we have spent wonderful tis together... and it’s the tradition" I state, making sure I emphasize the word tradition.
"Yes... it is".

When I got to the hall I squealed in excitent and victory.
"You seem to be overjoyed my lady" Olivia said with a smile against her lips.
"Yes my dearest Olivia, finally I have my own chambers and I will no longer spend ti with that man"
"Yes but, als and bath will be shared together"
I instantly halt my steps, turning to her.
"Yes, true... but I will just have to find a way to avoid that too" I said, rubbing my chin.
"You look pretty determined, my lady"
She must have caught my burning desire to stay clear of Cedric, I didn’t tell her about Cora or her visions, i figured it’s best I kept that to myself, there was still so things that needed understanding like how my husband bear the na, Magnus, a strange na with a aning I didn’t understand.
But that was for later, right now my new chamber was my focus.
"So tell
Olivia where are my new chambers at?" I asked in excitent.
☆☆☆
"I thought it was a different wing!" I yelled.
"Not so loud my lady, it is unladylike to shout," Olivia said.
"I don’t believe this, it’s at the sa wing as Cedric and his chambers are just across the hall... what’s the point of having separate chambers," I said with a heavy sigh.
"My Lady you two just sleep differently, but still this wing still belongs to the both of you,"
How could I have missed that out? Here I was thinking I will avoid Cedric in just the bathhouse and eating hours and now the sa halls? Ugh why was this happening to , it was like I was cursed to be near him.
The guard opened the large door of my new chambers as we both stepped inside.
It wasn’t as big as Cedric but it was big enough for
and majestic, but the room reminded
of Cedric’s, the dark wallpaper and the lifeless color.
"I don’t like the color"
"We can work on that for you my lady, just let
know what you need and I will get it done before night hours"
I made a thoughtful sound walking around the wide room.
"The wall should have more colors and the furniture’s too"
"We will get it done but only the household color is allowed"
I wouldn’t mind if it was yellow, as long as it didn’t look like Cedric’s.
I gave a nod of approval.
