Chapter 40 - Buried his face in her hair

Rosabella placed his shirt back on and placed the duvet over them. Emperor Carl refused to let go of Rosaeblla and entwine his fingers with her. Rosabella held his hands and knew she was not letting go of his hand ever again.

Rosabella's hair cascaded over her left shoulder and down her chest. Emperor Carl held Rosabella close, buried his face in her hair and wrapped his arms around her belly. He realized he must show Rosabella the dresses he brought and hoped she would like them.

Emperor Carl knew Rosabella had something to say to him, and he had something to speak to her. But he felt so relieved that Rosabella wanted to return to the Royal Palace with him and knew she felt relieved that he would help her. Rosabella slowly sat up and walked over to the window. Emperor Carl peeked over his right shoulder and saw her beside the window. 

Emperor Carl got out of bed and stood behind her as he pulled her close. Rosabella placed her hands on his arms and spoke. "After I woke up from being knocked out, I saw the dress that I wore when I was at the Royal Palace and when I broke the spell."

"It was with one of my fake stepsisters, and I saw I was wearing rages again. I had a go at my fake stepmother and stayed in my room as I refused to do any housework or see my fake stepfamily. My fake stepmother thought and said, 'I was out of my mind.' But I was not and came out on the day that my fake stepfamily left. I felt so overwhelmed with joy that they have left and want to see you again."

"However, I knew I could not walk to the Royal Palace in that dirty, filthy rages and did not want to embarrass Luke or you." Emperor Carl squeezed her and stated. "I better tell you what is going on and the plan. Ian, Luke, and myself. We produced a plan to get your fake stepfamily out of their fake house and back to Ian's house. Your fake stepmother thinks that she and her daughters will stay at Ian's house just for two weeks for Logan's birthday."

"She and her daughters are staying there forever. Ian's sons are returning their mother and sisters' belongings to their house. Ian had written two letters, one to his sister and the other to Paige. Ian's sister had received the letter and knew she must clear the misunderstanding that Paige had brought up. Luke and Mary are going to stay here. You and I are going back to the Royal Palace."

"Your fake stepmother will be shocked when she finds out you are at the Royal Palace with me and will not have her plans in action. I have something to show you and hope you will like them. " Emperor Carl strolled over to a trunk with Rosabella in tow and opened the trunk as she placed her hands over her mouth.

Rosabella knelt beside him and had tears in her eyes as he pulled a dress out. Emperor Carl glanced at Rosabella as he showed her the dress, and she wrapped her arms around him as she tried not to cry. Emperor Carl slowly stood with Rosabella and the dress. He placed his right arm around her and hugged her. Emperor Carl knew Rosabella recognized the dress and allowed her to take her time to calm down.

Rosabella wiped the tears away and choked as she touched the dress. "I recognized this dress, and can I try it on?" Emperor Carl nodded as he gave her the dress, and in the blink of an eye, Rosabella was wearing it and did a twirl. Emperor Carl recognized the dress because it was the one Rosabella wore the night after she helped her old horse give birth to twins and won his heart.

Rosabella knew Emperor Carl had been blown away, so she took hold of his right hand, and he pulled her close to him. She wrapped her arms around him as he kissed her and placed his hands on her face. Emperor Carl lifted Rosabella as he wrapped his arms around her and spun around the spot. Rosabella knew she had won his heart, and he had won her heart.

Emperor Carl slowly placed Rosabella on the floor and refused to let her go. Rosabella felt her heart being almost whole again as she wanted to meet her birth parents and find out why she was brought to Luke and his late first wife. Emperor Carl knew Rosabella wanted to find out why she was taken to Luke rather than staying with her birth parents and knew he would help her find out the truth.

Emperor Carl held Rosabella close to him, and she knew she could trap her fake stepmother and stepsisters. Rosabella stared at Emperor Carl and asked, "I know you have a plan in action, but how can we prove it was my fake stepmother who poisoned the late Queen Lilly?"

Emperor Carl got dressed and questioned. "Do you know if your fake stepmother had a room where she had the bottles and any piece of paper she wrote on?" Rosabella nodded and replied. "I know where the room is, but you must prepare yourself because seeing the room will not be nice." Emperor Carl knew Rosabella was telling the truth and nodded.

Emperor Carl opened the door, and Rosabella led him to the bedroom that her fake stepmother used to own. Rosabella closed the door and aimed for a wall. Emperor Carl was about to say something to her when Rosabella touched the wall and opened the door. 

Emperor Carl's mouth dropped when he saw a book on the table in the secret room. Rosabella strolled over and picked the book up. She briskly walked out of the room and opened the book to the page about killing Queen Lilly and the women of the Royal Harem.
