Witch's Daughter And The Devil's Son
223 What Did You Do On Your Wedding Night?
Once Drayce left the bedchamber, Seren looked at the beautifully decorated ceiling and thought about what he had said.
'Veil, he will remove this veil from my face on our wedding night. But what is the need? What does he plan to do? Is it necessary to remove my veil? But Martha said I can't let anyone see my face or it will harm me and that person...but how? She said the person won't die, then what is worse than dying? Why didn't she tell me what will happen to me and the one who will see my face?... He could touch my veil even with the intention of removing it when no one could even touch it before. This veil, is it not effective in front of him? If he can touch it, that means he can remove it too. Is it because of his powers? What will happen if he removes it? Will my curses end up harming him? I can't let it happen.'
Just then Marie entered the bedchamber. In the mild sunlight entering the bedchamber through the glass window, Marie could see the young Queen was awake and staring at the ceiling.
"Good Morning, Your Majesty," Marie Greeted smiling pleasantly at her Queen as she bowed.
It pulled Seren out of her thoughts and she looked at Marie.
Marie, who as usual carried the fresh flowers in her bamboo woven basket to arrange them into the vases, went towards Seren's bed, "How are you feeling now, Your Majesty?"
"Much better," Replying, Seren sat up in the bed and looked at the flowers in the basket in Marie's hand, "Those are pretty flowers."
"They also smell good," Marie said and Seren nodded in agreement as she could smell the scent even from a distance and the moment Marie entered the bedchamber.
"Did you have a good sleep, Your Majesty?" Marie asked.
"I did," Seren replied.
Marie smiled with a meaningful teasing look in her eyes, "When His Majesty cares for you so much, then it's inevitable to have a good sleep."
"Cares for me?" Seren said and looked at Marie.
Marie nodded, "His Majesty sure cares for you a lot, Your Majesty. That day when you got your monthly cycle and his majesty had to leave you with us, he was worried. I got to know that His Majesty moved all his work aside and waited to come and see you."
"Did His Majesty come to see me?" Seren asked. All she knew was that he didn't come to her and she missed his presence.
"Marie nodded, "After the Royal Physician left, His Majesty came but Your Majesty was sleeping."
Seren's face turned sad though she was happy to know it, "I thought his Majesty didn't come to see me till the previous night."
"But His Majesty came that day in the night too. Don't you remember, Your Majesty?" Marie asked.
Seren shook her head, and concluded, 'That's why I felt his energy around me that night but when I woke up, he was gone.'
"It's fine, Your Majesty. At least now you know how much His Majesty cares for you and can't stay away from you. How much His Majesty is busy, he makes sure to return to your Majesty in the night," Marie assured.
Seren nodded to what she said and decided, 'If he cares for me, I should care for him too.'
"Your Majesty, would you like me to prepare the bath for you or do you wish to rest for a while more?" Marie asked.
"You can prepare the bath," Seren instructed and asked, "I don't see Eva?"
"Lady Tyra is instructing lady Xena and her some other important things. They will be here shortly," Marie informed and went towards the bath after replacing old flowers with the new ones.
After a bath, Marie and Eva helped Seren dress up. Sitting in front of the mirror of the dresser when Marie and Eva were busy setting her long Reddish-golden hair, Seren looked at Marie and asked, "Marie, did you have your wedding night, too?"
This sudden question startled Marie and Eva and both looked at their young Queen through the mirror. A blush took over Marie's face and Eva looked at her teasingly.
"Yes, Your Majesty. After the wedding, every married couple has their wedding night," Marie answered.
"Oh!" was what Seren said and turned silent.
Looking at the silent Queen, Marie realized their King and Queen didn't have their wedding night the way it should be. Instead, they had spent their first night in the Inn of that city. Even after returning to Megaris, there was no such arrangement to make their night special. She felt bad for her Queen thinking their Queen must have expected something unforgettable which every woman wants and remembers for the rest of their lives.
Eva looked at Marie as if asking why their Queen was silent since the moment she woke up and what is with this sudden wedding night question. Was something wrong? Being young, Eva could not understand it the way Marie did.
"Your Majesty," Marie called, "Apology for not arranging the best wedding night for you, Your Majesty."
Now Eva understood what must be the issue but these two didn't know they were thinking totally wrong.
"I heard we will soon have a wedding according to Megaris customs and then we will make sure to prepare everything the best, Your Majesty," Eva added.
What these two were talking, didn't concern Seren at all and she looked at Marie, "Marie, what did you do on your wedding night?"
Crack!
The wooden comb Marie was using to comb Seren's hair, fell on the floor the next moment. Feeling startled as well as embarrassed, Marie gulped and looked at Seren through the mirror, "W-Why do you ask this, Your Majesty?"
Eva was shocked too but she came back to her senses and was ready to hear what Marie did on her wedding night. Seren was their Queen, so Marie had to answer whether Marie liked it or not. 'Thank god, I am not married,' Eva thought while looking at the embarrassed and blushing Marie.
Seren answered calmly, "I want to know what everyone does on their wedding night."
It shocked the other two as everyone knows what the wedding night meant for but why did their Queen ask this.
Marie calmed herself down and offered a pleasant smile to her silent Queen as she spoke gently, "Your Majesty, everyone does the same activity that Your Majesty and His Majesty had done on their first night together."
Seren knew the husband and wife should sleep together as per what Drayce said and from how he accompanied in bed every night.
"Sleeping together, that's it?" Seren asked.
"Y-Yes, Your Majesty?" Marie replied while Eva stood silent.
Marie and Eva's face had turned a little red hearing it as it was not something that would be said out aloud but their young Queen looked calm as if it was nothing. They didn't know that sleeping together held no other meaning for their Queen other than just lying in bed next to each other or cuddling, while these two understood the meaning of sleeping together differently.
"Then why did His Majesty say, we will be even closer on our wedding night. Isn't sitting and sleeping together already close enough?" Seren asked.
"Huh?" was what the other two subconsciously spurted out but then Marie looked at Eva, "Eva, can you pick up a few more flowers from the garden. The purple ones that suit Her Majesty's pretty eyes."
Eva nodded and quietly left the wardrobe room.
Marie wished to talk something more with the Seren but didn't wish anyone else to know it. Eva was young and she might end up talking about it to others, that's why Marie had sent her out. Being a wife of a knight, Marie understood the responsibilities that came with the one who served their King and Queen.
Once Marie made sure Eva was gone, she finally turned to the young Queen and kneeled beside the chair on which Seren was sitting and looked up at her.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by only sleeping together?" Marie asked.
Puzzled Seren who looked like she had said something wrong, turned her head to look at Marie to her one side, "This is what His Majesty and I do. Is there something else to do on the wedding night? His Majesty said to take my veil off that day," Seren answered innocently, trusting Marie and thinking of her as the only person to get answers from.
Even before Seren had any doubts or knew anything about something, Marie was the one to talk to her calmly and explain it to her. She felt like she could trust Marie and thought of her as the young version of Martha. In Marie's eyes she could feel the same warmth and care that she used to see in Martha's eyes.
"Haven't His Majesty seen your face yet, Your Majesty?" Marie asked.
Seren shook her head as if it was not a big deal while Marie didn't know what to think about it.
