Queen Vanessa had no expression on her face as soon as the news hit her ears. She wanted to see Oberon but as it is, he couldn't bring his face to look at her.
There was nothing but understanding in her eyes. Her hands balled to a fist buried in the sheets as she recalled that confident smile Adele sent to her two months before she got married and even became Queen.
"It might not be close to him, but I assure you... I will also have Oberon to myself. I don't care if I have to be the youngest wife to him!" The smug smile that accompanied her words was well-painted in her head.
To the extent it worried Vanessa and she had to open up to her husband about it. They made a promise to themselves that nothing like that could happen. Now...
Vanessa shut her eyes to a close at the thought of that arrogant girl being added to the family. She couldn't accept it. No woman would accept their husband taking in another wife.
