Since the king had a lot of things to do, Tristan excused himself after breakfast, and I found myself going back to my room to et my sister. Catherine was still eating breakfast with Marilyn who had already finished.
I suppose that was what she told Catherine. Marilyn was not going to eat a bloody breakfast in front of her and give more into her suspicions. As much as I wanted to tell Katherine everything, I was going to refrain from telling her about supernatural people that we had always feared.
"This is good." Catherine said with a mouthful. "Astria has the different cooking style from our country."
"They do." I nodded.
Talking about every thing that she had found, while living away from the Palace, Catherine was a little chatterbox who was not going to be quiet anyti soon.
"I made a lot of friends. I do not think I will be seeing them anyti soon as they live far away from the capital. Do you think I could visit them again?"
Without waiting for my answer, she continued, "they taught a lot of things. A lot of new gas that I actually like. It was a lot of jumping around which I think would have given my governess a nightmare."
"Apart from that, I loved everything. Even told how to block eatable fruits and vegetables from the jungle. Even a lot of herbs that I had never heard of. Did you know that most of our herbs actually grew in jungles before they were harvested like the healer does at the palace?"
I did. "Really? Is that so?"
"Yes!" She jumped in her chair. "And there are a lot of easy ways to describe them but once you get to know how a plant looks and feels like in your hand, you will always know whether they have healing properties or not. I think I am an expert in them now."
I nodded along with what she had to say, and so did Marilyn. She seed to be enjoying all of this thoroughly. The way Katharine talked, young and innocently for sothing we all enjoyed and currently you co. I felt like it was all we needed.
Catherine ate a lot for breakfast, more than I had anticipated. That imdiately led her to deciding that now she wanted to rest and sleep at all. A food induced sleep, what is the best for her was what I thought because she needed to heal, and her body needed to regain what it had lost.
Marilyn and I occupied my bed after Catherine had decided to go for the guest bedroom. Lying on the bed on each other’s side, we stayed up at the ceiling quietly.
"I want to ask you sothing." I said slowly, knowing that Irene was around. "About beloveds."
I could practically feel her excitent next to . Yet, she tried to contain it in her voice, even though I could hear it loud and clear.
"What do you want to know?"
"I have noticed sothing that Tristan does. He only starts eating after I do. Why is that?"
Because, as far as I have seen anyone who had been in love with soone, no one ever did sothing like that. They were rules followed by society and it was always that the king or the head of the household proceeded to eat. That often consisted of the man doing that.
Never have I ever seen soone ate before the man of the house sold yet Tristan and every other male vampire here contradicted .
She humd. "Vampire males are quite protective of their females. It does not matter if they are vampires or not. They simply are protective."
"If you rember about my celebration, Tristan always makes sure that you eat even when he is at a banquet. That is because he wants to make sure that you are fed. Until they feel I know that you are content and no longer hungry, they always make sure to eat less and that you have your fill first."
"Why?" I could not help, but ask as I thought it ca to my mind. "Is it because we are weak?"
"No." She said but then ended up shaking her shoulders. "Maybe, I do not know the right answer to that. But they are more dominant in nature, and it’s just not sothing they do as a power control like human n do, but sothing that you do to make sure that they’re mate is happy. It’s an individual thing."
"So are more controlling, whereas others are not. So will keep a constant eye on what is happening with their beloved, and so will let them go wherever they want without seeking the need to constantly protect them."
"I see."
Or explanation was sothing I could accept. Because ti in again, I had witnessed him do that, and if soone was a frequent in their habits, then I just could not be a lie. It had to be their nature and the nature of my Tristan seed like he was soone who was slightly controlling.
I felt like it was mostly held back from his side because he did not want to spook anymore. Then I already washed. Didn’t an that he was going to be more controlling in the near future?
Honestly, it really scared a little bit more even though deep down, I felt like I was ready for this relationship. It always, with him, felt like it was just ant to be—
"What are you going to tell Katherine when she asks about what happened?" Marilyn touched my hand for attention and I was grateful for the distraction.
About her answer, there was not much I could do. "I cannot give her the answer as all truth. I an she’s not going to get the brutal honesty from but I will be considering so details while telling everything else."
She sighed. "It is going to be a disaster."
Oh yes, It was.
