Clara excitedly jumped into his arms and hugged him. "Yeah, I will. I'm glad that I'll be married to you." She happily said.
Sir Norix couldn't believe what he was hearing. He never would believe that a girl wanted to be with him especially Clara. To him, he would think that Clara doesn't deserve to have an assassin killer as are scary husband. He never ever knew how to show love.
Sir Norix could only look at her. "Aren't you scared of me, Clara?"
Clara looked at Norix with oure admiration. "You saved me, cared for me, protected me, and comforted me. I'll be eternally grateful for you."
Norix couldn't deny any of these since he really cared for her. It started because of King Theon's order but as it progressed further, he really wanted to do it despite being it an order.
It was like Norix's heart soften a little for this girl and Clara can't see it.
Clare just wanted to love him.
Clare's POV
I've never had anyone care for me as much as Norix does. Sure, he might look like a scary man that doesn't say much but I feel protected being near him.
I never had someone protecting me like he did aside from Sir Hosa who treated me like a true brother.
I lacked feeling love. From now on, I will dedicate my life to loving Sir Norix.
Norix pushed me gently off of him and he exited the bathroom. "I'll be going somewhere with King Theon. Don't you dare escape the pallace." He said in a dark voice. "Or I will hunt you down."
I nodded and brightly smiled at him. "Why would I run away when I already have you?" I asked.
He just paused for a while before leaving the room.
I bet he's a softy on the inside!
3rd POV
The young Clara finished cleaning herself and exited the bathroom. She saw a clean pil of clothes on her bed. "He really does care for me. I knew he's a softy!"
The two dresses on the bed were a long white dress and another white dress that stopped at her knees. Since the weather was scorching hot, she picked the white short dress. Clara combed her hair as she plans how to make friends with other girls in the palace.
After looking at the mirror, she takes a deep breath and walks outside the room. That's when she noticed the halls were empty.
She walked through the aisles of the pallace, hoping to find somebody when she finally stumbled in the kitchen where all the women are.
She tapped on one of the woman's shoulder and nervously gulped. "Hello...I'm Clara."
The woman was chopping vegetables and she immediately whipped her head to Clara. "Oh my goodness! It's Norix's fiance!" She exclaimed and hugged Clara after putting down the kitchen knife.
The woman was in her later 40s but still had thick brown hair. Her eyes were full of glee and she had a million dollar smile. "I'm Qui. I'm Theon and Norix's carer since they were young."
I bowed and smiled. "Nice to meet you, Miss Qui." I said.
"Oi. Adress her as madam Qui . Remember you place. You're the daughter of the killer who killed the king's father." The girl with red hair said who was boiling broth. The girl next to her nudged her with her shoulder.
madam Qui's happy expression turned into a crazed one like she wanted to hurt somebody. "Kimber, I heard King Theon's Wolverines are hungry."
I get what madam Bong meant and Kimber scoffed as she continued to watch over her cooking.
"It's alright." I said as madam Qui looked at me with a questioning look. "I'll call you madam Qui just like the others."
Madam Qui looked at me with a pout. "Fine..."
"What can I do to help around here?" I asked her. "I know how to cook, clean, and do carpentry."
Madam Qui was surprised. "Really? I didn't expect you to do carpentry but were short staffed on one job."
"What is it?"
