83 Chapter 83 ~ “Helpless”
A few months passed by in a blink to Eleanora. It’s already the crown prince’s coming of age ceremony.
As the time passes by, Eleanora is becoming more and more afraid of the completely changed future from the past.
According to the past, she should be in battlefields now. Fighting with Republic Army’s in the dark lands.
But this time, she has stopped that war from happening and currently resting at her house.
‘It’s been more then three years since i last saw father...’
Dominic and Liana often keeps her accompany, Ain visits her almost every night too.
But since she started to get suspicious about Ain’s identity, she can’t help but be on guard while staying with him.
Eleanora has been busy in learning about her new saintess powers from Liana.
Blooming flowers, reviving plants, cure mild illnesses like headache and much more.
.....
Eleanora becomes astonished everytime she finds a new way to use her powers.
Nowadays, she misses Alexander a lot. How she wishes that she could share her newly found powers with him.
Her ice mana is getting stronger too. As long as she gets a suitable sword, she can fuse her magic powers with that sword and fight.
‘If father knows this, he would be proud, right?’
‘Maybe he will hug me and stroke my hair like before.’
Eleanora was immersed in learning swordmanship and holy powers... chatting with Dominic and Liana.
After learning that Eleanora was learning swordmanship from Ain, both Dominic and the royal knights sticked with her.
In the end, she just decided to learn from them and it was less stressful because Eleanora just couldn’t shake off her suspicions over Ain.
“I must say... The Duke and that brat teached you quite well.”
Dominic spoke as he sat on the garden chair to relax and Liana came over with cold orange juice for them.
“Thanks Lennie.”
Dominic deliberately brushed his hands above Liana’s hand while taking the glass, to let her know he won’t give up so easily.
“This is what a lowly servant like me should do, Your Highness the Second prince.”
“...”
The atmosphere always become silent because of Dominic and Liana’s awkward conversations.
At that moment the butler came in while running and gave Eleanora a letter.
“M-My...Lady, this is for you.”
“Take it easy, Why did you run so fast?”
Eleanora asked as she couldn’t understand why the butler would run like this to just deliver a letter.
‘Perhaps it’s from father?’
But soon Eleanora’s excitement fade away when she received the luxurious white envelope and her eyes fall on the roaring lion crest, imprinted on the envelope.
Eleanora stiffened unconsciously. She felt as if her heart stopped.
“Ugh, it’s an imperial crest, isn’t it?”
When Dominic spoke with a suspicious look, Liana took her eyes off the book. Looking at the crest, she looked at me with concern.
“Are you okay, Your ladyship?”
“Oh, yes. I’m fine.”
Then i noticed everyone’s concerned gaze. It’s not a new thing to the duchy’s people that their lady doesn’t like the imperial family, specially her fiance the crown prince.
After taking a deep breath, Eleanora decided to opened the seal. She bit her lip while reading the long letter.
She have been preparing for it since they returned from the Rua Kingdom and meet the emperor, but she became hopeless when she realized that the day was approaching.
That day, the emperor talked about the failed negotiation with Rua Kingdom and Eleanora couldn’t let Cathain take all the blame because he did it for her.
In the end, the emperor made her promise that she will give the answer about her marriage with the crown prince on his coming of age ceremony instead of hers.
[The emperor had told her that they will think about the royal marriage after Eleanora’s coming of age ceremony but now the emperor slyly made it three years earlier]
Eleanora was really angry but infront of the emperor, she can’t refuse. Moreover her father isn’t here too.
‘What should i do now? Now that my father is away, how can I get out of this mess?’
“Why do you look pale? Any bad news?”
“No, nothing like that, but...”
“Then, what is it? What’s the matter?”
“Are you sure you are okay?”
Unlike the calm Liana, Dominic was anxious seeing Eleanora fall silent like this.
Liana already knows how sly Cathain is. He must have already realised that Eleanora is suspecting him so he made a move before Alexander could return and mess up his plan.
So, she wasn’t that surprised at all.
Nothing surprises or shocks Liana anymore since she saw a living person sleeping and talking with a dead person all night.
Eleanora handed the letter to Dominic, who quickly grabbed the letter to read. After reading it silently, he sighed and put it down angrily.
“What the heck is this? You have to attend the crown prince’s coming-of-age ceremony? Besides, they are sending a royal tailor to measure you and make a dress. You’re only thirteen, Why do you have to go there?”
“Because I am the crown prince’s fiance.”
“Am telling you as your big brother and also as a man. There is something wrong with that crown prince and the brat that hangs around you. Both of them are insane and weird! You don’t know how that Crown prince fought with me for carrying you as he didn’t knew that i was your cousin...”
“Huh? Carry me...?”
Dominic gulped in fear as he could already feel his uncle’s killer cold gaze.
He has unconsciously blurted out the truth.
Alexander has threatened him to not say that it was Cathain who carried her into his room when the prophecy was given and she become sick after seeing Cathain.
And the reason for that?
Simply because Alexander doesn’t want for Cathain to get some brownie points in Eleanora’s heart.
What if his innocent daughter falls into his trap once again?
‘Damn it.’
“N-Nothing... who carried who?”
Dominic remained silent after murmuring something inaudible.
Eleanora didn’t paid him much attention and closed her eyes to block out everyone’s worried expression.
The crown prince’s coming-of-age ceremony was the day she promised to give her answer to the emperor a few months ago was fast approaching.
She still need the crown princess position even if she doesn’t want to.
If she agree, she will be trapped with Cathain forever.
But if she refuses now, then it would be an dead end for her to investigate duke Raven.
Eleanora felt like she was falling into hell as darkness started to block the light from her eyes once again.
She felt helpless infront of the emperor, Cathain and the royal family without her father around her.
Why now, when her father was away?
