As soon as the incident took place it flew over the world in the air.
when it was the day of the funeral, duchesses, dukes, Kings, Queens, Lords, barons, counts, countesses, princesses and princes all arrived at the palace!
but only one figure had been able to capture all eyes...
"oh my god! is it him??!"
"it must be a mistake!"
"will, I assure you it cannot be him!"
the kingdom was in shock!
the one that stole the lights was...
king of Britain!!
the late king Alexender and king of Britain Louis were never on good terms, especially before the late king's death!, despite his good-looking, young age and the dark brown silk hair and green eyes, he was still a threat to the kingdom of France, All the attendance knew that no good shall happen when he just showed in the Kingdom of France!!
Conflicts didn't stop between those two kingdoms!
for what reason did he come?!
At last, they all knew that they had to show respect and welcome him in France and the palace!
no sooner the funeral was followed by people from all over the world, but no one seemed to show sincere Condolences except for my maternal relatives, my poor parents!
After the burial was over, princess Portia my sweet aunt
followed me after I had gone to my room, she took me into her arms and comforted me, I cried, she cried and I needed to feel free.
My maternal family didn't leave me alone....it was like they had shift orders to stay by my side!
I was happy to reunite with them after a long time!
I was sitting with my cousins in my bed when my aunt Portia's husband entered my room
"Victoria!, look at you grown-up lady!" he smiled.
"Uncle Charles!"
I hurried out of bed and went to hug him, thank you for being here I told myself...However, I didn't allow visitors out of my family to have contact with me yet.., I was not completely ready for the act they would make up and the unsincere words that would drive me crazy!
it was no time before the palace had started getting busy again preparing for the feast...
it was a traditional funeral ceremony for royals from long ago.
.....
the feast
a few days passed, and more guests arrived.
me, grandpa, maternal and paternal relatives were sitting on the long royal table covered by the white sheet in front of the round tables all over the hall where all our dear guests sat, still, eyes were on sharp king Louis who came to us before fitting himself on his table to show his SiNCerE Condolences!
I could feel the change of atmosphere around me, I felt suddenly cold, bold Louis said
"queen victoria, the world is in great sadness, may they rest in peace"
gloating was it? my thoughts had me elsewhere before I realized it was him!, I could only nod to his words without much thinking and concentration!
I stopped for a while!
"wait, who was that again??"
I bit my lips, it seemed like they would break, my eyes were filled with tears, AnxiEty I looked here and there!
"no, he didn't!" I told myself in anger or was it fear??.
"what are you thinking about, dear??"
I gripped aunt Portia's attention who sat beside me, she was busy explaining to my paternal relatives why didn't queen camellia my grandma attend the funeral, well, she was on death's bed!
time didn't pass!
it even stopped when the guest grandpa was waiting for had arrived at the doors of the hall!
"Olivia!, fetch yourself somewhere else!"
grandpa told aunt Olivia who was sitting beside him.
" I need this spot!" he continued.
"Papa!" she was disappointed.
it was charming prince Philip of Sweden who came on behalf of his brother Gustaf king of Sweden.
he was undoubtedly perfectly handsome!
the guards lead him to grandpa, he bent, greeted both of us and offered his solace...
It wasn't much to think about until grandpa said "queen Victoria won't you great your FIANCÉ probably??"
