Episode 22?
? Elena’s POV ?
I was sleeping peacefully, when suddenly, I feel Harry’s body pulled away from mine.
I hear a something falling in a loud thud, I quickly open my eyes and I come face to face with Harry’s figure towering over me. It’s almost as if he’s trying to block me from something.
I rub my eyes and looked at Harry properly. He’s fully clothed and looking at me with his eyes filled with anger.
Why is he angry?
Then I hear a painful grunt, I lift my body to take a peek but Harry pushed me back down. He pulls his t-shirt and wore it on me. Then he left me and rushes forward to someone.
“You ba$tard!” He growled. He pulls up the person and punch him on the nose.
The person is nked.
But how did this nked guy get into me and Harry’s room.
I look around frantically and noticed I’m not in our room, but where am I?
I see Harry hitting the guy’s head on the wall.
“Bl©©dy dev1l!” He hits the guy’s head again.
Wait… that’s Stephano! Oh my God! What happened?
Then everything comes rushing in, my eyes grows wide. What have I done?.
“You” punch. “Dare” punch. “Touch” punch. “My” punch. “Wife!!” Then he kick Stephano on his stomach.
Just then, Gabrielle rushed into the room and runs to me.
“Elena, I’m so sorry. I swear I didn’t know any of this would happen” she cried.
I’m confused, I don’t know if I should cry or not.
I only remember seeing Harry, coming in here with Harry and kssing him, but everything that happened after is a blur. I can’t seem to remember anything.
“Elena I’m sorry” Gabrielle pleads as she cries. I also feel tears running down my cheeks, I mean how can I explain what happened.
First I disobeyed my husband, second I slept with my brother-in-law,,,,, well I don’t know if that is actually true.
“It’s not your fault, Elle. I shouldn’t have come, I should have stayed home and this wouldn’t have happened” I cry.
Elena embraced me and we cry on each other’s shoulder.
Suddenly I’m pulled from Gabrielle and I’m turned to faced Harry.
I met with his eyes glazing in anger, his eyes are red, no trace of white at all. I feel myself trembling under his hold, I pray he doesn’t hit me.
He wipes my tears and help me wear my jean trousers, the he swoops me into his arms.
He glared at Gabrielle, before heading toward the door.
“Mark, bring that bastard to the palace” he stopped in front of Stephano. “Bring him NKED!!”
Then he head out. I stayed silent in his arms not knowing what to say, he also didn’t say anything or even look down at me, he just kept walking towards his car.
He opens the door and sits me in the passengers seat, he helped me with my seatbelt, then he walk over to the driver’s side and get in the car.
He didn’t say anything.
He starts the car and drives off. The silence in the car is as sharp as a newly sharpened knife and I swear it’s cutting through my veins.
I need to explain myself to him. But is this the right time to do that?.
Well I’ll never know unless I try.
“H-harry, I..I’m sorry. I..” his harsh glare shut me up immediately and I shift in my seat uncomfortably.
Maybe I should try again.
“I swear I didn’t….”
“I don’t wanna hear it, Elena!” He cuts me off.
Oh, Elena? No baby?
Yeah, I can’t blame him. He’s so angry and I’m the cause of his anger. I decided to stay silent.
After 25minutes of awkward silence, we arrived at our mansion.
Harry quickly got out of the car and open the door for me. Immediately I stepped out, he carries me in his arms.
Is this how he defines anger? Is caring part of anger to him?
He enters our mansion with me still in his arms. The moment we step into our living room, we’re attacked with questions.
“Oh my God! Harry you are finally back. What happened to Elena? The royal guards have been searching all over the palace for her. Is she ok?” Mom asked (the queen).
Harry didn’t answer her, he walked past her and sits me on the sofa.
I look around and see that everyone is here, the king, queen, my aunt and even grandma, they are all here.
I guess they called my aunt and asked if I was at her place.
“Elena, dear. Tell us where were you? We were all looking for you” grandma said in her gentle voice.
I open my mouth to speak but I couldn’t find the right words, rather tears starts flowing from my eyes. I can’t possibly tell them that I went to a club.
Me, a married woman and the crown Princess of Peoria, went to a club and was rapped.
Grandma holds my hands and wipes my tears.
“Dear why are you crying? Talk to me” she persuade me.
I stand up from the sofa and falls on my knees.
“Grandma, S-stephano ra..raped my wife” Harry dropped the bombshell.
I hear loud gasp from everyone. I couldn’t look them in the eyes, so I faced the floor.
“What?!” Dad exclaimed.
My aunt and mom rushed to my side.
“How did that happen?” Grandma asked.
Harry let’s out a dry, sarcastic laughter.
“That’s even the funny part, grandma. She went to a club!” He said.
“Jesus!” My aunt exclaimed.
I know I’ve disappointed my aunt, she always warned me about the dangers that lurk in clubs.
But I didn’t believe her, I thought if those girls are happy when going in, how can there be dangers. My aunt deemed clubs to be an unholy place.
“Elena, I didn’t expect this character from you. I raised you better than this” aunt said.
“I’m sorry Aunt”
” Don’t call me that, I don’t think I’m old enough to be your Aunt” she scolds me.
” Aunt I’m sorry, I really am” I cried.
” Shut up Elena” my Aunt raised her hand to hit me, I closed my eyes and wait for the pain to come but it doesn’t.
I hear the sound but it didn’t feel the pain. I open my eyes and see Harry hugging me, blocking me from the slap.
I looked at him surprise. Even though he’s mad at me, he’s still protecting me.
He stands up and faced them.
“Aunt, if you wanna hit someone, please by all means, hit me. I’m also at fault here, I wasn’t careful and I couldn’t protect my wife” he said.
“Harry you’re supposed to be angry at her. Why are you protecting her?” Aunt asked.
“Of course I’m angry, I’m bitter, I’m hurt and I’m sad. But she’s my wife and it’s my duty to protect her no matter what happens” he replied.
Aunt glared at me and I looked down in shame.
“Mom, dad, grandma and aunt. Thank you caring about us and we’re sorry for worrying you all, but this is between me and my wife, we’ll talk things through as husband and wife. So if you don’t mind excusing us” he said.
Mom wipes my tears and smiled at me.
“I don’t blame you, Elena. And I won’t question your character, I know you are a good girl” she said.
” Yes, Elena. Just take care of yourself” grandma said and they left.
When they’re gone I crawled to Harry and hold his legs, as tears poured out from my eyes.
“Harry I’m so sorry, I shouldn’t have disobeyed you. I’m sorry”
“Yes, you should be sorry. You slept with my brother, wait…was that why you lied to me? So that you can be with him? Cause what I saw certainly didn’t look like you were forced”
” No, I swear on my life. I didn’t know Stephano was gonna come to that club, and it might sound crazy but I thought he was you. I was drunk and I wasn’t in my right senses. Please believe me, I’m sorry Harry” I said amidst tears.
He turns and helped me up, then he turned away from me.
“Go and freshen up. I have something to discuss with dad” he doesn’t wait for my reply, he left without turning back.
He is angry and I understand his anger.
I weakly walked to our room, I need to watch his touch from my body.
? Prince Harry’s POV ?
I enter the palace and see my dad sitting on his throne, Stephano’s nked body kneeling down.
“Father!” I greet and bowed my head.
“Harry you are here, you may rise” he said.
“Thank you, father” I raised my head and turned to Stephano.
Seeing him here my anger increased ten folds, I feel like $trangling him.
“So Stephano, I’ve heard about what you did. What do you have to say for yourself?” Dad asked.
Stephano raised his face up, right now his face is disfigured. I made sure I beat him black and blue.
“Father, I’m innocent” he said.
“Innocent? You rappe your brother’s wife and you’re claiming to be innocent?” Dad asked.
” Yes, father. It was a night club and we can hardly tell who is who. Besides I was drunk and I wasn’t in the right mind then” Stephano said.
“So you want to blame it on alcohol. I trust my wife, she wouldn’t go with you willing” I barked into his face.
He laughs dryly.
” You saw it yourself when you came into the room, did it look like I forced her?”
” You ba$tard!” I growled.
” Enough!” Dad’s voice boomed. ” Harry you have to look for evidence that will prove that Stephano is really guilty of the crime”
What evidence? It’s obvious that Stephano is lying about being innocent.
“Harry?” Dad called.
“Yes, father. I’ll do that” I said.
“And you Stephano, I’ll have to put you in the imperial cell for now, untill Harry have the evidence we need” Dad told him.
” Thanks, father for your mercy” he said.
I feel my anger rising at the mere looking at him. I need to leave before I take laws into my hands.
“Excuse me, father” then I left.
I should go and check on Elena, in case she needs anything.
I’m angry at her but I must take care of her. I just need to prove her innocence first before I address our issue.
? Elena’s POV ?
I step out of the bathroom in my PJs. Just then Harry step into the room, he glance at the wall clock.
“It’s late. You should go to bed” he said.
It’s almost midnight.
“I was waiting for you” I said in a whisper.
He looked at me from head to toe, then I see a lone tear run down his cheek but he quickly wipe it off.
Then he turned away from me.
“You don’t have to wait for me”
“Why?” I asked.
He takes in a deep breath.
” I don’t want to be in the same room as you tonight” he replied.
I hear my heart crack a bit.
“Harry I’m so…”
“Elena, stop apologizing”
I gulp down and blink repeatedly to stop my tears. I’m at fault and I should bear the consequences of my actions.
I pick up a pillow and blanket, then I head towards the door, but Harry’s question stopped me.
“Where are you going?”
“To the balcony” I replied.
“No” he paused and takes the pillow and blanket from me. “You are my wife, the queen of this mansion. You have every right to stay in this room. Sleep here” he said and opens the door.
” Then what about you? Where are you going?”
“I wanna release some steams, I’ll be in my gym” then he use the door behind as he left.
I fall on the ground and cry out my eyes. I’m so careless.
I’m such a fool.
