Chapter 7
On the morning of the coronation, I did not meet Victor or his sister, and Matilda was busy in agreement with the designers of the dresses to send what they designed and chose from them, and the rest of the servants are busy organizing the palace and the kitchen is in chaos and movement and the number of guards increased so much that they were present inside and outside the palace like ants, yesterday's ticket The words of "Victor", that this day is necessary for the world to know their new queen, but I did not understand the meaning of the day of the mark, what does the mark mean? And what does it mean that the crown is to choose me? This is why I looked for "Margaret" to ask her, but I passed the kitchen because I was starving and was so chaotic and moving that they did not feel me when I went inside. I went to the fridge and started taking out the meat to prepare something for me to eat, and if a woman in her fifties was yelling at me
Woman: What are you doing, girl? Don't you have a job to do?
Everyone stopped moving and turned to look at me, as if I was a thief caught red-handed. Then I looked at them and then at the woman and said hesitantly
Relam: - I am the king's wife and I was hungry, so I bring some food for me
The woman was amazed: - What? And why are you here? And where is this idiot "Matilda"?
Relam: - She's busy with dress designers. And with this witch who will come to put makeup on me?
Woman: - Sorry, my name is Hem, and Victor calls me Mama, and Matilda's work includes taking care of you. Come on, you can go back to your room and I will bring you food myself.
Realam: - No, I will quickly prepare something and take it. You complete what you were doing here. I don’t want to stop you.
Hem with a smile that showed her prophet: - My dear, they are here to serve you, you will become the queen of all groups and you do not have to but order and implement everyone
Relam: - Can I tell you Mama
Hem: - Sure
Realam: I am just a girl from the northern suburb tribe, and even if I become the queen my heart will remain the same, we all live in this world, we all have rights and we have duties
Hem: - My modest little girl, the kingdom will change on your hands, and I hope love will prevail in this world like your heart, just as justice prevailed over the years in the hand of my dear Victor
I went to the fire and made me a sandwich of meat and tens of eggs. I noticed the silence that suddenly hit the place, I turned to see what was happening and did not find anyone inside the kitchen, ((Where did everyone go)) So I asked in my mind, but I saw Victor sitting next to the table in the middle of the kitchen looking at me Then he indicated to me to approach him, I approached him while I carried the dishes that I had prepared and then put them on the table and when I tried to sit on the chair he pulled me and sat me on his feet, so he drew me to him more until my back touched his chest full of muscles I smiled at him and told myself ((Does he not feel uncomfortable sitting like this ))
Victor: - I am satisfied with this situation
Relam: How did you know what to think
Victor in his mind (you always forget that I am your companion and I can read your thoughts as long as I do not put a barrier between us)
Victor: You don't need to put a barrier between us, I trust you
Relam: - You're ashamed of me like this
I turned around and hid my face in the wide chest and felt his smile at what I had done
Victor: - You didn't tell me why you're here
Relam: - I was hungry and they were busy, so suddenly he brought me food
I got off his feet and sat on the chair and started eating, then I looked at him and he used to watch me and not eat, so I extended my hand and put the food in his mouth, he smiled and gnawed at the food and then kissed my hand
Victor: - I'm not hungry, dear. You eat your food
Realam: - I feel as if we are speeding up this crowning step, because I do not have confidence
Victor: Don't trust me
Realam: - No, not like that, I do not trust myself, as I used to live alone without bearing the responsibility of others except if I wish my father was with me
I do not know how I could not hold back the tears that poured out of my eyes. He got up and hugged me and whispered
Victor: You are not weak and can take responsibility for the kingdom and then I am next to you, do you want to talk about how they died?
Relam: - I was young at that time, sitting with my mother and father in the garden of the hut planting some corn, and my sister was sleeping in her room, the wolves of "kami" attacked us wanting to take me, and in order to protect me, my father threw me in a box below the hut. They did not see me but I saw them while they were being killed. My father and mother tried to take my sister, but she attacked them and died too
Victor: I'm sorry for what happened. I wish I was with you
He suddenly turned away from me, anger appeared on his face, then he spoke in an angry voice but calmly
Victor: Why did you enter the Black Forest that day
