Chapter 234: Resentment

While putting down the pride of all the men existing in the world, Seren finished reading about the development of a man's body and understood this deformity was what made a man different from a woman.

'So, all along His Majesty was talking about this deformity that differentiates man and woman,' she closed the book as it was finished.

Today she had learned about the development of a man and a woman's body and how they are different. She still had so many questions in her mind that what was the need of making them different like this. She looked down at her round chest, 'Just like these rounds are uncomfortable for me, that deformity must be uncomfortable for His Majesty.' She looked at Drayce with pitiful sight.

Drayce sensed her gaze on him and looked at her which made him uncomfortable, 'Why does it look like she is feeling bad for me? What exactly did she read there? I have checked the book and it had only the basics of the human body that she must understand.'

"Your Majesty." her calling pulled him out of his thoughts and he asked, "Are you done reading the book, My Queen?"

"Yes, Your Majesty," she replied and looked at the book stack on one side of her study table. "Which one should I read next?"

Drayce kept the scroll in his hand aside and replied, "First, My Queen should tell me what she has understood from this book."

To her, he looked like a strict teacher and she frowned inwardly, 'He still doubts my smartness.'

Seeing her silent, he spoke, "I am waiting to get an answer, My Queen."

"I understood how a man and woman's bodies develop with age and how a man and a woman are different...."

"And how are they different, My Queen?" Drayce asked, maintaining a straight face.

Seren cleared her throat first as she somewhere felt embarrassed talking about it. In her mind, she can talk about her round chest but telling it to him was a bit uncomfortable. Also, between her legs, she felt she would uncover herself in front of him.

"Yes, My Queen?" Drayce waited for her to answer.

Looking at him how he was so serious and cold, she answered, "A woman doesn't grow a beard and mustache with age while a man does. A woman has a round chest while the man has a flat one. A woman doesn't have deformity at her lower abdominal part while a man does."

Seren answered like the best student of her teacher. She was of course so smart but here her smartness was just the kind to make any man speechless by calling their pride a deformity.

Drayce heard her clear and confident answer that showed she said nothing wrong. Everything was fine but the moment she said the last line, Drayce pinched his nose bridge as he mumbled with his gritted teeth, "Deformity again?"

Seeing him like this, Seren felt worried as if she had forgotten to answer something and looked at the closed book, "I don't think I have missed anything," and looked back at Drayce, "Did I miss something, Your Majesty?"

Drayce looked at her as he let go of his nose bridge and opened his eyes. "My Queen, you should not call it a deformity."

She felt puzzled, 'To me, it looked like a deformity and I even felt bad about it,' she thought and asked, "Then?"

Drayce breathed deeply to calm himself down from how helpless he was feeling to explain it to her. "My Queen, those two rounds grown on your chest," he straightaway looked at her chest.

Seren felt like he could see through her clothes and slowly lifted her hands to cross over her chest. "What about it, Your Majesty?"

"Should I call it a deformity too?" Drayce asked.

It surprised her and she lowered her head to look at her round chest, 'These two rounds? Deformity?' she then looked at Drayce, "All the women have it."

"Just like that, all the men have what you refer to as a deformity, My Queen. It's a clear insult to the existence of each and every man," he said, sounding calm but cold.

'Did I just offend him by calling it a deformity? Seems like it,' she thought and lowered her head, "Apologies, Your Majesty. I will be careful to not call it a deformity."

Drayce calmed down as he saw her apologizing. He could understand that It was not her fault but seeing her calling it a deformity, the pride of a man was hurt. If she had grown up knowing all these things naturally like others, she would have not said it like this and must have accepted it naturally without any question.

Drayce stood up and went to her study table and she looked at him feeling a little scared, 'Is he going to punish me for offending him?'

Just as she thought, he stood at one side of the table and offered her his hand, "Let's go, My Queen."

It surprised her, "W-Where, Your Majesty?"

"As I said earlier I will take you somewhere so it's time now," he replied.

'I hope he is not taking me away to punish me,' she thought and accepted his hand. Just as she stood up, Drayce observed her to check if she was dressed warmly. She was only wearing a winter coat but it was not enough for where they were going, she needed more layers of clothes.

Drayce pulled her closer, "Hold tight!"

It didn't give Seren any time to understand and she immediately held by circling her hands around him tightly and the next moment they were in the Queen's bedchamber where Eva and Marie were busy arranging the room while Lady Tyra was busy instructing them. "Make sure to maintain a temperature higher than what we need. Her Majesty is not used to the cold."

The three felt the strong gust of wind in the room and the next moment saw their King and the Queen were inside the room and that too in an intimate position where Seren was hugging him tightly and his hands were also surrounding her.

They immediately lowered their heads and Greeted, "Your Majesty…"

"Put on some more warm clothes on her so My Queen won't feel cold outside," Drayce instructed Eva and Marie as he looked at Seren who moved away from him feeling a little weak. "Are you fine, my Queen?"

Seren nodded and meanwhile Lady Tyra instructed Eva and Marie to do what their King had just asked.

"Please, this way, Your Majesty." The two ladies escorted Seren to her wardrobe room as Drayce saw Seren entering the other room.

"As per Your Majesty's instructions, the place has been evacuated," Tyra informed, "Is your Majesty heading there at this moment?"

Drayce replied with a light nod and asked, "Tyra, by any chance have you seen the flower on my mother's wrist emitting a light?"

"Yes, Your Majesty," she answered honestly, not knowing what he was going to ask further.

He turned to look at her, "When?"

Tyra didn't know how to answer it as everything was entangled in a way to be not able to explain it at all, "Apologies, Your Majesty. But I seem to not remember it…."

"As you said before it only shines for the soulmate but it never shines for King Theron, right?" Drayce asked.

With her head still lowered, Lady Tyra gulped as she left out a helpless and disappointed sigh. "Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Then was it for my biological father as he was her soulmate?" Drayce asked.

Lady Tyra felt like having a huge burden on her chest and didn't wish to answer it. Drayce had asked numerous questions to his grandmother and Lady Tyra but whenever it came to his mother, both didn't wish to answer him anything.

"I don't like to wait, Tyra," he spoke. Though she was his nanny and he considered her someone close to him, when it came to his mother, nothing mattered.

"Yes, Your Majesty. It shined only for him," she replied.

Drayce scoffed, "But you and my grandmother still claim that she loved the previous king and considered him as her only soulmate."

"It's the truth, Your Majesty."

Drayce scoffed, "Isn't it enough to show she only loved my biological father. If you have realized the meaning of that sudden glow on the flower mark, isn't it enough to know that she had those intimate thoughts only about him? She never thought about King Theron but only forced herself to believe that she loved him?"

"Your Majesty, Previous Queen believed in deciding her fate on her own the way she wanted and didn't wish to give in to her destiny. Her decision was to only love her husband, King Theron, who loved her equally though her destiny said her soulmate was someone else," Lady Tyra explained.

"But in the end, she gave in to the one who was meant for her," Drayce commented.

"It was the situation that made her do it. For that, no one can blame her, not even King Theron," Tyra countered and added, "She always believed she only loved King Theron and we all believe the same."

"Very well! I would rather like to hear she loved King Theron rather than him who couldn't be with her but left her with his child," Drayce said as his red eyes were filled with resentment.

"We can't talk about him like this. He is not someone we can offend...." Tyra referred to Drayce's biological father.

Drayce raised his hand to stop Lady Tyra from speaking further. He didn't wish to hear about that person who he had never seen but resented since the moment he understood why his mother had left him.
