Would you believe me when I say that my husband has finally love him? From what I've said before you might find it hard to believe but it's the truth. From that day on me and my husband went out and spend more time. We had our lunch in his garden, his garden still had those white flowers but I don't care anymore because he was looking at me.
After the harvest festival has ended, it is time for the hunt to begin. Each year the royal family organises a hunting game for the nobles. But last year due to war, it couldn't be held so this time the new Emperor will be organising this event. The event was going to be held at Sheshire Halls, a property of the royal family. It's a huge palace with many rooms for guests and the surrounding forest, also under the royal family, was filled with small wild animals which is perfect to have a hunting session.
Naturally me and my husband got the invitation. A week long event for the nobles to mingle and make connections. I didn't wanna go, I know how everyone sees me, what they think of me and yet as soon as I saw him, his smile towards me, his voice when he said, "let's have fun together", i immediately wanted to go. Once again I'm getting swept away by his words but now that didn't matter, little by little I'm forgetting about the divorce. The maids packed me everything I needed and soon we departed to Sheshire Halls. All the ladies were allowed to bring atleast one maid. From our duchy me, my husband, Heinz and our head maid Linda came. Heinz and Linda are on a separate carriage of course.
I looked out the window to see the city from afar, it was big and the sea port seems to be busy. "Do you like the scenery?" My husband asked. I couldn't help but blush I don't know why I became so nervous and conscious when he looks at him. I could only nod and hope that he doesn't ask further questions or else my heart will explode.
"We'll be there in 2 hours tell me if you're tired we'll stop and take a rest." He said. Is he looking after me? We went back to looking at the documents in his hands, still working even though this was supposed to be a vacation.
Indeed we stop by halfway as I wasn't used to riding in a carriage this long. Nearby a small stream we rested for a while. I have never been this far out before. The wind, the sun, the open field it's calming, it's like I'm on a picnic. I went on a little further and stopped by the stream. The water was clear and clean and you could the pebbles and small fishes going about their day. I took off my shoes and dip my feet in. It's cool and a bit warm. A breadth of fresh air, I want to stay here forever.
"You'll wet your dress Vivian." He said from behind me. I turned to see my husband. Oh God you are cruel, why did you have to make my husband so handsome. The wind blew his shiny silver hair, his tall and strong figure, it almost put any man to shame. He reached out his hand to get me out. I gladly took it. I'm not lying when I say he got a towel and dried my feet and put my shoes on. I feel like I'm a princess and he's my prince. I hope everything goes well.
After another hour of journey we finally reached the Sheshire Halls. It was huge, even bigger than the palace i presume. The main hall was tall and spacious and every corridor has each and every member of the royal family's portrait. It's like a family tree you can learn about their lives here.
I see many people have gathered here. A total of 22 noble families were invited. Once again people started whispering when I entered. I tightened my hold on Ceaser's arm. I hate this, I knew what they were saying, I don't deserve him but... But he loves now so why are you all still whispering about. You talk when he didn't love and you still talk even when he loves me. Why is it that everything I do seems wrong to you?
Finally the royal family entered the halls and took their seats on the throne. Our Crown Prince, Henry is 5 now. He took after his father in looks but people say he's kind just like his mother. "Thank you all for joining on this hunt, it is sad that we didn't do this last year. It was a devastating time for all but this week we will celebrate and enjoy ourselves. The servants will take you to your rooms. Welcome all."
The palace servants took us to our rooms and Heinz and the others left to the servants quarters right behind the main Sheshire building. The room was big, big enough for two. Children were taken to another wing so that they can socialized and play with those of age away from the adults. The servants will look after them of course.
It was finally time, time for me and my husband to share a bed. My heart was beating fast and my body became hot. Tonight I'm going to sleep with my husband.
"Vivian I'll go out first. Come once you're ready." He said and left. I was finally able to breadth. That's right now I have to meet and greet people. Today there will be a party and from tomorrow the hunting session will finally begin. I still don't get why we have to stay for a week but I heard it's because the event won't just be hunting, friendly compititions for the ladies and the children will be also be there so that everyone can take part in it. I even heard the servants will also have a compitition too. Our Emperor really out did himself this year. Although I have never went before but I hope i will have fun too.
