Chapter 25:

” It’s… It’s” she stammered. ” It’s about the girl by the beach. ”

” Enya, you don’t have to worry about her anymore. And besides, she isn’t in my head. I have you already and I’m satisfied with that. ”

” It’s not what you think. ” Sighs, ” The truth is, that girl… It’s me. ” She sighed again. ” I know you might be trying to believe it but… I couldn’t tell you earlier because I thought you might have forgotten about it.

My mother found out that I always leave the castle then she ordered that I should be kept under watch.

I didn’t tell her that I always go out to swim with the kids or she would have banned me from leaving the castle forever.

After that day, I wrote letters hoping that one day, I’ll give it to you and likewise keep to my promise.

But then, I learnt you were returning back to Brok with your mother.

I didn’t stop writing to you, though I knew it was impossible to send them all to you.

Some times, I would read it aloud, imagining you by my side listening to every words.

Days turned out to weeks and weeks months until it got to years, I never heard about you.

Sometimes I’d sneak out again to the river, hoping that one day I will see you, standing out there and staring at the water.

But each time I came, it’s all the same to me. You were never there. Then I had to quit swimming. And not even the kids knew I was a princess.

You know, I did wanted to tell you on the night of the ball but then I changed my mind. ”

” Why? ” He asked.

” I felt it wasn’t the right time to do so. I knew I would tell you one day, whether I become your queen or not. Least I forget.. ” she said, like she has just remembered something

” I brought you one of the letters. It was the last but also my favorite too.” She got down from the bed, heading to her wardrobe.

Taking it out from where she kept it, she brought it to him. ” Here, read it.” She handed him the letter, while he unfolded it, reading through the lines.

Enya watched him while he reads. It’s years now she’s been with the letter. Never have she imagine it will one day get to the real owner’s hand.

He looked up at her, ” I will keep this with me.” He said, dropping it on the lamp stand. ” So you did love me after the day we first met?”

” I guess I did. Though, I was still little to understand the feelings.”

” Now you do, what do you think? ”

” I think… ” She paused, then continued. ” fate has been right all those times. It didn’t want me to tell you my name that day because it knows if I did, you’d request for an immediate marriage on the night of the ball. it wanted you to test my sisters and I first. ”

” Talking about the test, I never expected you’d get it all. How did you know I love rabbits? ” He asked.

” I… I.. ” she stammered. ” I was only admiring the pictures when I saw little portraits of them on the lamp stand and table too. ”

” Tell me, you sneaked into my room?”

He smirked at her shyness. ” We’ll talk about the piano some other time, ” he pulled her gently to himself. ” But why don’t we talk about your mother’s letter?”

” What about it?” She asked.

” Don’t you think she’s right about us having a child? ”

” I don’t think there is more to talk about it other than a ‘yes, I am ready. ‘”

He loved the sound of it. He leaned forward, and she slowly leaned backward until her back is on the b.ed.

First, he settled a soft kss on her lips, then her ear, causing a light moan out of her mouth.

When she closed her eyes she felt he had many hands, first untying the ropes of her dress. She held her arms across her bbs.
