Volga stood before Isabella lowering his head for her to place the red towel.
" Welcome Your Majesty" She spoke casually not looking into his burning gaze for some reason she felt they would swallow her up.
" Have Missed You Wifey" He responded teasingly before he could continue in his words a loud voice rang in Isabella ears and that of everyone elses.
" Hmmm forgetting something your highness" Adora spoke rolling her eyes. She moved over to Isabella side moving her hand forward for a shake.
" My name is adora and yours? " she smiled charmingly waiting for Isabella to take her hand. Isabella stared at the woman from head to toe unknowingly observing her features the reliving gown the lady had wean gave her a off feeling. She couldn't understand her own emotional it was a mix of anger and confusion. she couldn't be possibly jealous of a woman she just meet just because she had been brought by the lord and the man had the right to bring who ever he pleased to his palace it wasn't like she cared anyways. she quickly gathered her thought and finally took adora stretched hand.
" Isabella" she responded staring into the woman beautiful peer of green silver eyes.
" it nice to finally meet you " she spoke in a cheerful tone." it also nice to meet you as well"
They all walked in as the guards short the front doors, grace quickly ordered the maids to prepare a room for adora will they others planned dinner.
Caleb appeared out of nowhere bowling
" Welcome back your majesty" He greeted respectfully. " How are you doing Caleb ? I'm doing well your majesty the queen as been really taken care of us all"
" His that so ?" His eyes fell on Isabella sitting by the parlor listening adora blabbering on and on he studied her calm expression and small gestured from time to time he had realized Isabella was a gentle soul.
His eyes left her returning back to the young boy.
" Have you welcomed your father? Not yet your majesty I will do that now " He replied giving a slight bowl before heading off. To go meet the man already busy with work getting involved with issues of the palace is old strict look had returned.
" Welcome back Iran " He addressed formally.The Young man eyes landed on his son " Hope you been good while I was away ? " Yes Iran I was on my very best behavior"
" That good to know you me leave now duty calls " He spoke returning his force back to the workers. A disappointed look appeared on his face not getting the attention he wanted from his own father.
He lowered his head and headed of going back into the shadows.
By a distance Isabella attention had left the woman who was still blabbering on about her journeys and it stayed on the father and son who were discussing she couldn't hear anything they were saying but true the expression she could observe the sad look on Caleb face and the onboarded look on Iran face. She understood that look of neglect and it wasn't a wonderful feeling for any child too go true. she planned on addressing the matter with Iran.
Volga joined the ladies sitting in the second parlor of the palace.He took a sit facing Isabella. Adora turned to face him with a frown on her face.
" We're is Iran? " She asked wanting to know his were about..
" He as returned back to his duty " Volga answered indifferently.
" You see that he is such a log of wood always to cold he most frighten you are times . Such a cruel man couldn't even spare the man for a few seconds already sent him off to work " she whinnied in a pissing tone.
Volga and Isabella eyes meet for a brief seconds before looking away.
" Just say your bord and you are looking for someone to mess with " A maid walked into the room handing them a cup of fresh squished lemon juice.
" Thank you preciel" Isabella thanked giving a worm smile to the maid.
" no need to thank me your highness it my pleasure serving you " She bowled respectfully will taking her leave.
Volga seemed pleased it seemed over the week Isabella had been able to gain her respect from the people living in the castle without his help.
Adora noticed Volga intense stare at Isabella direction she smiled mischievously yawning a little.
" I think am tired know can you ask someone to lead me too my room . I also think the majesty is tired as well" She raised on her feet gulping down the last piece of the juice.
" Sweet Goodnight everyone" Sha smirked winking at Volga.
" Let me call you a help . Emma" Isabella called out Emma quickly appeared out of the halls walking over to her direction she gave a bowl greeting the lord and his guest.
" Yes my lady you called out for me ? I will be needing you to direct our guest up to her room please if you do not mind "
Emma shook her head " No I do not mind one bit" Isabella gave her a smile
" Thank you"
" Come with me " She gestured with her hand showing the way to the guest room.
Adora know we're the guest room was located she had visited the palace alot in the past it seem the new human maid didn't know that so as Isabella.
cashing Isabella of guard Volga swept her off her feet into his arms a scream almost left her lips from the sudden action.
She stared at the man face intensely not understand his motive for carrying her.
" I'm sorry my lord but I can walk on my own " Her hands were rapped tightly around his neck she didn't want to fall of by chance. Volga was enjoying the closeness.if other beings saw the lord's open display of affection their mouth would be left hanging opened.
" I do know you have legs but I enjoy carrying you is that a problem" He responded soft tone. She wanted to protest but she stayed silent he gently dropping her down.
" Give me a minute" He walked into bathroom leaving Isabella in the large room. Her feet wondered out to the balcony were a beautiful display of stars twinkling under the night sky the moon glowed basking in the night glory.
The cold weather touched her skin worming her heart. She silently hummed playing a mysterious tone. The half moon hour would soon arrive the day of her curse when her heart would bleed and she would face death repeatedly on like when she was a kid when ever the half moon hour came that she would scream and cry for help which never came as her room doors were shout tight for no one to hear her screams by her stepmother. she had to go true the pain alone now the hour didn't scare her anymore she expected it sooner. the earlier it came the faster it ended and she could live in peace again for another six mouth.
She hadn't realized Volga stood beside her as her eyes were short to the world humming a melody. Her eyes opened feeling a hand slowing gentle grazing hers . She stared deeply into his eyes which were staring back at hers with the same amount of burning passion.
She broke the eye contact and stared forward moving her hand away from his.
Volga didn't like the cold feeling in his palm he liked the way her hand fits on his.
" You most love the night time also when I stare at the darkness it brings a new sense of alertness in the air. beautiful isn't it ?" Volga complemented still gazing at the sky .
" Yes very beautiful " she responded the wind bowling the strings of her hair.
" Tell me a little about yourself" Even do he had seen everything during the vision at the weeding he wanted to hear it from the main source. He watched a summon look appear on her face she looked like someone in morning a crocked smile appeared on her face.
" They is really nothing to tell. But since you asked what do you like to know my lord "
" Could you address me by my name call me Volga and I like to know your story "
she breathed out silently " I never know my mother only heard of her death during child birth I only know I had a father who never loved me I was a baden to him and to is greet reputation my foster mother hated me so as her daughters I was the outcast the outlaw the forbidden the curse child blessed with a cruel faith . To think of it many people her scunned by destiny " A was a slight mixed of anger and frustration in her tone her eyes that were blazing with spate a minute ago we're now normal and plain as before like the internal battle with herself was over and darkness had finally won over light.
He had such a baden on him before he know the feel he pulled her into his embrace taking her off guards her small frigile body was evolved in a tight worm hug he brushed her hair in the silence.
Isabella body trembled in his armies she didn't know why everytime she got close to the man the walls she had built around her for some many years seemed to crumble living her vulnerable the hurt buried inside her surface and a tear drop threatened to escape she held back her emotions. He finally pulled away from her not letting her go completely.
" My Beautiful treasure I promise no one going to ever hurt you again " He lifted her chin pulling a string of her hair behind her ear as both their gaze lucked on each other intensely unblinking.
She pulled her face away feeling her heart beat running like a thundered lighting bolt she did know wither she liked the feeling or hated it. The both stared forward at the night sky silently both wondering what the future had in store.
