Chapter one hundred: Take my hand, take a step 2
Alexander didn't understand where her feelings were coming from. He knew she didn't get along with his wife but he didn't know the hatred ran too deep. He moved faster and stopped her.
"What is going on with you, Rosemund?" He asked holding her shoulder and looking at her with worried eyes.
"You are King, just do your job is all I am asking!" Rosemund tried to move away but Alexander stopped her.
"Tell me the truth, what is going on, Rose?"
Rosemund could feel her eyes tear up a little bit as she figured out how to put her emotions into words.
"She doesn't love you, Alexander. And I worry that when she leaves and she will. She will take the rest of the goodness left in you with her and I will be left with a monster and a glue...to put you back together. Mostly, I think I won't be able to. Then I would have failed at the only job I was given. Keeping you good and human, so, let her go already!"
