60 Chapter 60 ~ “13th Birthday”
After finally reaching the main palace, Eleanora noticed a few more carriages with so royal crests of different nations.
Eleanora again got down from the carriage with the help of Cathain but sothing caught her off guard.
‘Why he isn’t letting go yet?’
Cathain didn’t let go of her hands on his palm, instead he tightened his grip as he pulled her to walk.
Everyone around them kept staring with various emotion containing in their gaze.
So feared where so was envious.
Brayden was following them from behind and Eleanora suddenly rembered the day when she was dragged by Brayden into the prison like this.
That day, she had let Brayden to drag her without any protest because she had given up in any hopes from Cathain.
Seeing Cathain, who never once hold her hands in their last life, holding her so protectively... Eleanora montary felt a little warmness in her heart.
.....
She looked at the tall figure infront of her and let him hold onto her as they walked into the palace before her heart beco cold again.
Only if he had hold onto her like this in their past life...
Eleanora can’t help but compare this boy with red eyes infront of her, everyti he does sothing totally different from his past.
‘Don’t fall for it... it’s just an act to make weak again.’
‘It’s just a trick of him to use and then discard ... just like in the past.’
Cathain kept feeling uncomfortable because of the burning gazes of people on Eleanora.
‘I shouldn’t have bought her here... should i just dress her up as a man?’
He kept glaring back at the people who was staring at her and they imdiately withdrew their gazes from her.
They didn’t wanted to die yet... His furious gaze was really scary.
Attilak soon lead them to their room and left.
Eleanora, who was in a daze of her past mories returned to her senses once Attilak left.
‘Wait... where is my room?’
Cathain, who easily understand the dumbfounded expression of Eleanora, smriked slyly.
‘Finally they did sothing good...’
Cathain and Eleanora was official partners as their engagent wasn’t annulled yet.
So, they just prepared a single bedroom for the young couple.
It was very common in the empire for even young couples to stay together in the sa room.
As, Cathain didn’t attended their engagent ceremony and Alexander didn’t wanted to Eleanora stay in the palace, they never shared the sa room together.
Even in their past life, they never stayed in the sa room together.
“Well it’s seed like they prepared a single room because we are still officially engaged together.”
Cathain spoke and Eleanora kept silent for a mont.
‘If i request for another room now, they will certainly spread this news negatively. It might impact the negotiation process.’
‘It will only be a few days... i will just treat him as air and moreover what can a kid like him can do?’
This, 16-year-old Cathain was like a kid to the 12-year-old Eleanora, who had the 22-year-old soul inside of hers.
But what she didn’t knew was, even if this boy infront of him wouldn’t do anything to her, but it was still dangerous to stay beside a beast afterall.
Because, just like her, he was a 26-year-old young man into the appearance of a 16-year old.
A small beast is still a beast and sotis, it’s more dangerous then the older ones as the young beasts are afraid of nothing.
“I understand, your highness.”
Eleanora finally replied to him and unbeknown to her, Cathain narrowed his eyes as his lips curved up into a sly smile.
‘You are still so innocent, My empress.’
‘But that’s good for ...’
After eating their lunch, they got the notice of an invitation to the royal ball for welcoming them.
So, they started to get ready for tonights ball party.
Cathain wore a crimson red royal suit, where Eleanora wear a black coloured dress, embroidered with gold threads.
She just wore a pare of long diamond earrings and kept her hair tied up without any accessories.
The servants, who helped her to get ready was amazed by her beauty.
She was not a adult but her aura had superior and mature vibe. Like, she was just born to rule.
Which was sohow right, because to the people of the empire; Eleanora was born to be the bride of their future emperor.
A girl, who was born to be their empress, to rule over them.
Guide them towards prosperity.
As Attilak’s first impression on her, She looked like danger but still, one would be tempt to walk into trap of danger by himself.
Her shiny silver hair and exposed white shoulders looked more white in the gold embroidered black dress.
The door opened and Cathain’s tall figure reflected on the mirror.
Eleanora looked into the mirror to et his frowned expression.
‘Why is he angry now?’
She didn’t even did anything to him, so why does he frowns all the ti?
Then she sighed as, she didn’t even did anything in her past life too.
But she was still killed in the end. Wasn’t she?
Then, she felt a cold tingling sensation on her shoulders and looking into the mirror, she saw him staring into her eyes.
Cathain took his mouth near to her ears and Eleanora suddenly felt a shivering feeling.
“I suddenly want to lock you up in this room... not letting anyone’s gaze to fall on you, except .”
Eleanora frowned her brows as she couldn’t understand his words.
‘What’s he saying all of a sudden? Has he beco crazy?’
Cathain chuckled a little as he could easily understand her mind without even asking.
“Yes... You are right. I have indeed gone crazy... it’s you who drive crazy... My empress.”
Eleanora widened her eyes in rather an inexpressible feeling and before she could say anything else, she felt him putting sothing into her finger.
Eleanora looked down and saw a shiny diamond ring on her ring finger.
“T-This...”
She was shocked and as she opened her mouth to speak, she felt his thin lips on her cheeks and frozed.
Eleanora stared blankly at the mirror, where she saw the reflection of him kissing her on the cheeks as his hands wrapped around her waist swiftly.
“Happy 13th birthday... My empress.”
