138 “The Past: Biggest Mistake”

The barrier broke off as soon as Eunicelia sacrificed herself and Alexander ran to where she was just standing.

But there was no trace of her anymore...

‘Oh God, If it’s a dream then let me wake up, Please.’

“DADDY!!!”

But then Alexander realised it wasn’t a dream anymore as he heard Eleanora’s trembling voice.

She was sitting on her horse, Eva, that Eunicelia gave her during her fifth birthday.

She was horrified and tears kept pouring out from her eyes.

‘Lia must have sent her away to keep her safe.’

But Alexander, who wasn’t able to accept the sudden death of his wife, couldn’t bring himself to hug and comfort her.

.....

Tell her that, her mom is no more because her father failed to protect her mother.

From that day on, Alexander avoided meeting Eleanora.

He kept himself busy with palace works and border inceptions.

Alexander seldom went home at day and returned after she fall asleep while waiting for him.

The only time he was able to face her was when she was asleep.

Like this, they started to grew apart more and more...

And one day Alexander noticed his daughter’s blushed face as she saw the crown prince.

Her jewel like blue eyes instantly brighten up and she looked at him like there was no one but only him in her world.

She fall for him when Alexander left her to stay in the imperial palace as he was in the border relief inception.

Eleanora, who was suffering from affection deprivation because of the lack of parents love become obsessed with the crown prince.

Alexander thought she will come to her sense soon because to him, the crown prince is nothing but a piece of shit.

The crown prince dared to sent his precious daughter in the war.

How dare he to do that to his daughter?

But Alexander couldn’t do anything as his daughter happily agreed to his words and went to the battle field to prove her worth.

The day before she left for the battlefield, Alexander went to see her but the moment she saw him, she started to tremble.

Her fear for him was visible in her face or was it hatred?

In the end Alexander couldn’t say anything more and just went out.

He went to the battlefields several times but couldn’t approach her as he saw how happy she was.

She made new friends, she had people to talk now.

She doesn’t need this failure father of her anymore.

Then after a year, when she was fourteen, she returned as the youngest knight to be ever in their history to attend the crown prince coming of age ceremony.

Alexander wanted to hug her, but she just left after a formal greeting to him.

Her all attention was toward the crown prince and he couldn’t help it as it all happened because of him.

She was obsessed with the crown prince because of his lack of affection.

But she left for the battlefield again the next day, without even visiting him and returned again at the age of sixteen as a senior knight to celebrate her coming of age ceremony.

Although the ceremony was quite simple, but for some reason, she started to become gloomy after that.

She become obsessed with wars and pleasing him.



She bought down every land, territory, country the crown prince laid his eyes on.

Eleanora proved the prophecy to be real.

The empire prospered a lot because of her.

In the past years of her into the battlefield, although she didn’t noticed him, but her father was always behind her, guarding her as she was facing the enemies.





After, emperor Valerian died, the crown prince raised to the throne at the age of twenty two with Eleanora as his empress at the age of eighteen.

As Eleanor liked him, Alexander had no choice but to give in and that was his mistake.

She become a knight commander after that and lead the battle with Rua Kingdom successfully.

She returned as a war hero.

She had everything but in reality, she lost everything the moment he signed the marriage agreement as her guardian and his name was removed from hers.

He shouldn’t have left the duchy for four long years after her marriage.

Alexander regret placing her hands into his, He regret not hugging her tightly into his arms.

He regret he didn’t told her that he loved her before...

Tears kept flowing out from Alexander’s eyes and he suddenly felt someone’s presence.

It was Charles again.

Who was escorting Eleanora to the trial grounds.

‘Did she escaped?’

But Charles’s dejected face was telling him something else.

“She was.. given a death penalty.. by beheading her immediately...”

Alexander felt the sky fallen over him... His daughter was beheaded?

He wasn’t that shocked as both Eleanora and him knew this would be the outcome if she doesn’t escapes.

But still, he had hopes in his heart that, she will be alive, she will escape..

But after what happened today, the emperor has lost the support of Marquise Roselia and the other two dukes along with many other loyal noble houses who used to protect the throne.

So the day, when Evan Ravens will rebel and covet the throne is not far away.

He will understand that day, what he lost today.

Alexander thought as he listened to what happened in the trial ground from Charles quietly.

He kept staring at the prison ceiling as he found himself dead inside.

He kept on living to see the ending of the person’s who made his daughter live a living hell.

He watched them living in a hell by themselves too.

There was a time when he wanted to avenge Eleanora, but then as he was finally released from the prison by the help of Jennifer to escape and saw the dead Eleanora again.

All he had on his mind to cherish and protect her.

Not letting all those people harm her again.

He just wanted to fill up what he failed to do before.

He would not allow her to lose herself in the game of revenge.

Alexander looked at the person sleeping on his lap and sighed before smiling a little at her.

Eleanora had been dancing and talking with Lady Arlo and Richardo so much that she has been exhausted.

As soon as she got into the carriage again, she instantly fall asleep.

Then Alexander moved her and placed her head on his lap so that she can sleep more peacefully.

‘You have grown up so fast... I still remember how you used to droll in your sleep when you was little.’

‘Somehow i wish you won’t grow up more and always stay beside me as my princess.’

Meanwhile in Eleanora’s dream~

‘Where am i again?’

Eleanora thought and realised she is again in a dream from a third person’s prospective.

She blinked a few times to clear her blurry vision and realised she was sitting on the ground.

Infront of her was a garden, which was full of white roses.

Eleanora got up and continued to walk. Everything was new to her.

.....

Even the buildings looked like old designs.

She continued to walk as usual, no one noticed her.

But then, her eyes fall on a couple not so far away from her.

The man was tall and beside him was a petite woman who had a umbrella over her head as she walked.

The man was walking slowly so that the woman beside him could walk comfortably.

Eleanora narrowed her eyes as she noticed that the man had black hair, Same as him.

She walked a little faster to see the man’s face clearly but she was stunt to see the woman beside him.

‘W-Who is this?’

The woman had shiny silver hair which was tied up in a bun and her eyes was golden.

It was only because of her eyes that Eleanora understand it was not her.

The woman continued to walk as she chatted with the man beside her.

Although the man was simply listening to her, but as a onlooker, Eleanora could see that the man had his eyes on the petite woman beside him all the way along.

But the woman beside him didn’t noticed that.

The man looked the same as the current emperor with his black hair and red eyes.

Eleanora gasped. What is happening?

What is she even seeing?

Who are they?

Without thinking much, Eleanora decided to follow them more closely to listen to their conversation.

“Am knitting a sweater for the baby, Do you want it to be a boy or a girl?”

The woman asked with a cheerful face as she touched her flat stomach and Eleanora’s face become dark.

This is the same question she has asked the emperor in her past life, when she first discovered that she was pregnant with their first baby.

And the emperor’s answer was...

“It doesn’t matter.”

Eleanora’s eyes widened in shock as she heard the man’s answer which was the same as the reply of the emperor in her past life.

As she had expected, the woman become quite as she heard the answer.

But unlike her past self who stopped asking anything more after hearing his answer, the woman pushed the man beside her as she looked at him angrily and puffed her face in anger.

“How can you say that about our future child!”

The man was stunned as he didn’t expected her to be this angry.

The woman dropped the umbrella and she looked really weak as she furiously looked at the man infront of her.

Even Eleanora didn’t expected this reaction.

Tears filled up her golden eyes and she clenched her dress as she tried her best to not cry.

The man approached her with a panicked face and tried to explain himself, which surprised Eleanora.

“No...i mean it doesn’t matter either it’s a girl or boy- ARIANDE!!!”
