His Witch Queen-Chapter 94: Sweet breakfast!
As soon as Princess Alice’s eyes opened, she found herself all alone in the room. There was no trace of Prince Cyrus anymore, which was somewhat disappointing too. But at the same time, she got out at the same time to get ready as soon as possible for herself.
The unhappiness died very soon when she went to the washroom and got really as per the custom. On-time, her maids, Isa and Marrie arrived, who helped her with her dress for today. As per the custom, she wore the lace attached to her hair, while sitting in front of the mirror.
With some usual things and the talks between them, Alice found everything to be as similar as possible. But one difference which she came across was to find herself even more relaxed in her current position. Her mind and outlook changed drastically, with her mind already overwhelmed with ease.
As the maids soon left her chamber after she was done getting ready for the day, Princess Alice sat there alone. Her heart eyes were staring at her reflection in the mirror, with a bit of daze.
’Cyrus’s words were very genuine. He seriously needed me as his wife..someone who can shelter him.’ despite the different attempts to suppress her sour taste after thinking that King Almen had actually asked him to marry was still tugging at her heart and mind badly.
But on second thought, the exciting and the happy news that she heard was to know that he had denied it instantly. Moreover, he had openly told everyone that he has responsibilities towards her.
Was this so-called sip of happiness that went or what?
At the same time, the sound of footsteps entered her ears. Subconsciously, she moved her head back to find Cyrus entering the chamber.
Standing from her place, Alice bowed slightly before muttering, "Good morning to you..."
"Good morning, Princess Alice. It is nice that you are already ready for today.." Cyrus answered back when his eyes traced in her direction. But on top of that, he found that she was looking extremely beautiful.
In fact, from the last day, he could feel that her beauty was relatively increasing. Was this his illusion since he had decided to take a step forward to put his hatred aside to maintain a cordial relationship? Prince Cyrus was still doubtful about the same.
"The breakfast is already ready for us. I think we should go there now," he told her openly, ready to move but then, from the corner of his eyes, he saw the hesitant look that had planted on her face.
When he sensed the same, the Crowned Prince immediately moved back, to find her still sticking to one place. "Princess.."
"I’m sorry....." hearing her own name, Alice cleared her mind and pulled herself up from the surprise. "I..I..just recalled the events of the last day. The sight..of.."
"You aren’t comfortable seeing us drinking blood even now?" Rather than beating around the bush, Cyrus enquired straight away. There was a look of curiosity, but at the same time, he wanted to know her point of view too.
Meanwhile, Princess Alice hesitated a lot. Nervousness was crawling under her skin, making her gulp the saliva present in her mouth, ’What am I supposed to say?’
’Will he understand...? he was the one who stepped ahead and if I showed so much resistance..it might annoy him..’ there were chances for her words to stab her back.
But she had no other option than to present her hands. For now, Alice decided to play against her own heart before blurting it out straight away, "I’m not comfortable till yet.."
"I will slowly..I just need some time, if you understand my position, Crowned Prince Cyrus." Alice answered, still unsure whether he would buy her reason or not.
’Will he get angry over me?’ She was doubtful, but at the same time, the chances told her heart that he might do so. In the end, she is not a vampire and being a new person, it takes a lot of courage for her to realize that she resides with the vampires, and seeing them drinking blood will not be such a big deal...
Princess Alice waited for him to respond to her. Although initially, there was a slight trace of anger that had settled inside him then, he once again sipped it down in his body, appearing to be calm now.
A soft smile pulled on his lips when he nodded his head in her direction, "It’s alright. I understand that it might take you some time to adjust to everything.."
"T-thank you for understanding.." Alice replied.
Currently, her heart was blooming at the thought that he didn’t only just agree but also saw from her point of view. Deep down, it gave her the assurance that his words were still very much true..he will cooperate so will she try her best to do so.
However, when Alice had thought that he might leave her alone in the room, she heard him again, "Wait for me for the next few moments. Will be back soon.."
"B-but where are you going?" her words were left unheard by him since Cyrus already left the chamber. As Alice waited for him to return, she bit her lower lip in eagerness that had spread all over. ’Where is he even gone?’
She wondered deeply but the only way to find out was to wait with patience....
In the next few minutes, Alice had already sat on the same place of the mirror, in the wait for Cyrus. as she heard the soft mumble of something moving.. her eyes flew directly at the chamber’s door to find him coming inside of the room with two ladies carrying something in their hands.
Back on her toes, she stared at the maids, with the questionable gaze but her gaze didn’t raise her words. She silently noted how they kept the plates on the tables on Cyrus’s order.
As Alice saw all the movements, she swallowed her own saliva and worries, rather than walking to Cyrus, to find all the dishes that were laid on the table "This..."
"Well, I thought why don’t we both have breakfast here in our chamber... Shall we?" Cyrus took the nearby seat to sit in the royalty manner.
Using the napkin, he spread it on his laps, where he used the forks and knives to cut the steaks and other stuff.
Yet at the sight, Alice’s mind has malfunctioned. ’Is he saying that we both should have breakfast together?’ Why was her heart beating so fast?
"Won’t others question and pass taunts on you since you aren’t having breakfast with them? After all, you are the Crowned Prince.."
"They won’t even care about my presence." he simply replied, while chewing his meal. "You also, take a seat and eat.."
Hearing this, she simply gave a small nod to proceed and sit beside him. With her mind still trying to adjust herself in this situation., with a lot of nervousness crawling under her heart, Alice managed to settle there.
At the same time, Prince Cyrus removed the cloth in front of her eyes, to show her that there was the usual food and meal made for her, especially for her since none of the vampires eat this kind of food at least here. "You once again asked the kitchen and the maids to make this for me?"
"I never asked them. It must be either Lady Ashley or Lady Aura who instructed them." He shook his head while chewing his food. But despite her heart, Alice already knew the truth. ’Lady Ashley specifically mentioned that he will never accept that he has done this..’
And the lady was quite right too...
Taking the meal with her hands, Alice too slowly and steadily started to eat. As currently, her heart was at the bay, she didn’t find it much more difficult to resort either. However, her mind was revolving around different emotions that she came across...
’He actually didn’t go to have breakfast with others.....rather than that, he is having it with me..’ her heart bloomed at this thought and the sight.
With his perfect actions, he sliced the steak and put the bite into his mouth. For a while, Alice had tried to eat her food in the same silence but her heart wasn’t ready so she had started a few talks.
With the same enthusiasm, Cyrus replied and even went forward to ask and seek her interests in the different flavors, which she openly and happily told.
It was a new experience for her surely since no one actually took interest to ask about her likings in the dishes. But his sweet gestures were constantly making her mind go simply into the daze.
A faint smirk had already covered Alice’s lips, with her eyes glowing with the defined mist. He was happy..sweet at least for now. Recalling last night’s talk brought a faint blush creep on her cheeks too but she had hidden it well again.
’But father had openly told me that I shouldn’t fall in love with him....not even like him...’ as the thought crossed her mind, her grip tightened around her forks. However, Alice didn’t show even a slight change in her actions except to keep her actions going.
’But then..mother wanted me to open up.... with this man. She told me he will be my support...’
’Whose words am I supposed to follow? Do I have the privilege to fall for him...?’
