"I understand what you are going, queen Ariadne," she said. The pain in her eyes made my heart ache. "I know how rejection hit. I got rejected twice. But you don't have to decide in a haste.'
I looked at her. The burden of taking care of his mother, prince Edward and the Emperor was on her. It was not going to be an easy task. Facing grandmother, prince Elvin and queen Valeria was tough. But I knew she could do it.
"I can't stay where I am not wanted" I took the cloth which was acting as my bag now. I put it on my shoulders and said "You know how I have sacrificed for this relationship. I lived for this and this is what I get in the end. I lost my daughter because of this love. If he doesn't love me again, I will leave."
Queen Marlena did not know what to say. She took the bag from me and opened the door "You deserve happiness, my queen. Prince Edward will never forgive me for letting you go."
