Episode 13?
? Elena’s POV ?
I open my eyes and I met with a white ceiling. I move my body and noticed I’m laying on a bed, I quickly sit up right.
I look around. I’m in a strange room, it looks like a princess’s room, which means I’m still in the palace.
I removed the covers from me and jumped off the bed, but I regretted it instantly. Pains stroke my head and I wrap my hands on it, rubbing it gently to soothe the pain.
The last thing I remembered was me listening to a very huge secret, then someone hits me from behind and the rest is mystery.
I guess the person that sent me unconscious brought me here, and judging from the decor of this room, it seems like a female bedroom. Whose room is this then?.
As if on cue, the door open and I see Gabrielle walk in with a small towel on her shoulder and a small bowl of water in her hands. She rushed to me when she sees me standing.
“Elena, you’re awake” she said.
I nod and look at her strangely. Was she the one that knock me out? Why would she do that?.
She use her palm to feel my temperature, then she nod and smile a little.
“You’re ok. I thought the impact was too hard and you’d catch a fever” she said.
“I’m fine” I said.
She takes my hand and leads me to a living room. I guess we’re in her mansion, if we are then I envy her. I wish I can enjoy this kind of luxury…
No, wait.. I don’t wish to. The palace is not safe, so this luxury doesn’t count.
“Please sit” she told me.
I nod and make myself comfortable on the couch nearest to me, Gabrielle sits next to me.
“Elena, you should be more careful when you’re in the palace. I bet this is not a place to wander around, you should be careful”
I look at her in confusion. Though, I kinda understand where she’s driving at.
“What do you mean? And why did you knock me out and brought me here?” I asked her.
” I didn’t knock you out, my servants did, though I ordered them to” she said.
” Why did you do that?”
“I’m trying to save you, Elena. Look, what you were doing was very dangerous, you’re lucky Stephano’s men didn’t get to you first” she said.
I nod in understanding, I mean, I did hear a secret. But how did she know Stephano was in that mansion? Is she his accomplise?.
“What did you hear, Elena?” She asked.
I drew my eyebrows together and look at her suspiciously. Is she trying to know if I heard anything so that she can kill me?. I decided to stay silence.
She sighed.
“Whatever it is that you heard there, keep it to yourself. Don’t tell anyone about it”
” Why?”
” It’s for your own good. If you wanna stay in the palace for a long time, then you have to learn to pretend that you know nothing, nothing at all” she said.
She stands up and walked towards her window, and begin to stare out of the window.
I walk up to her and hold her hand.
“You’re speaking as if you know exactly what I heard” I said.
She snickers.
“I know way more than that” she paused, then continue. “I know my mom killed Harry’s mom, but I don’t wanna believe it”
“You know?” I asked, shocked.
She nods.
“Do you know why? What happened? Does Harry know too?”
“I don’t know what really happened, and no, Harry doesn’t know about it. My mom persuaded my dad to send Harry out of the country when the incident happened” she said.
So the queen is just pretending to be good?
“What I don’t understand is why my mom is treating Harry so good, she’s taking care of him like he’s her biological son” she looks at me. “I think there’s more to the eyes meet”
“Yeah. But don’t you think Harry need to know the truth?”
“No! Don’t tell him. I have my men investigating the case, when I know the truth of the matter, when I know what really happened, then I’ll tell Harry everything”.
” Ok”
She smiled.
“Elena, you’re about to get married to Harry, please be careful where you wander to. Be mindful of your words and…. I think you’ll be fine”
” I’ll. Thanks for your advice, Gabrielle” I told.
I glanced at her phone screen, it’s 09:16pm. I guess I was unconscious for a very long time.
Just then the doorbell rings.
“I guess Harry has come to get you”
“Maybe, you know it’s kinda late now” I said.
We both head to the door. Gabrielle open the door and we’re met with Mark’s blank face.
“Your highness” he bowed at Gabrielle, then he turned to me. “My lady, Prince Harry demands your presence, he said you should come with me” he said.
“So… This is good night?”
” Yeah, have fun but don’t forget to use condoms” she wink at me. I blush and hurry out with Mark following me closely.
