After making sure Melvin fell asleep in his arms Aleyza immediately carried him and carried him to his bed. Although Melvin's body is a little heavy considering his age has entered adolescence but Aleyza wants to feel holding her first child.
Although it was not Aleyza who gave birth or rather her soul. But her maternal feelings had grown and cherished them all.
Aleyza compared Melvin carefully before blanketing him knowing the air in front was a little cold. After that he kissed her forehead once more.
" Good night" Aleyza said before leaving Melvin's renovated room. Because it was Melvin who insisted on staying here and accompanying him.
Aleyza who heard it did not mind at all even feeling happy. Because he did not need to worry if something bad happened to Melvin if living in the palace given the greed of the concubines to get rid of his son and occupy their children in the throne.
Aleyza walked towards the library to meet Eli as promised.
Kriites...
When Aleyza came in he saw Eli sitting and reading a book. Eli who felt the presence of someone immediately stood up knowing who was coming.
" Good night, Lady" Eli said, bowing respectfully.
" There's no need to respect me Eli, I don't like it" said Aleyza, who took a seat across from Eli just yesterday afternoon, blocked by a large table.
On the table there is a candle that is used as lighting.
" I don't know, but I've heard from a former waiter working in the Durchi area that Duke Maximilian hated Lady Cerdella because the Lady's birth caused the Duchess to die of blood loss. From that day on Lady Cerdella was exiled in a remote part of the country and she was banned from the main residence until she was 14 years old. I heard when Lady Cerdella was allowed to return to the main residence." said Eli who took a breath of tired talk at length.
" But after that Lady Cerdella desperately tried to get Duke Maximilian to accept her as his daughter. Until he often made a fuss instead of getting attention Lady Cerdella was increasingly hated by everyone in the empire including Duke Maximilian Riddle himself. Even when Lady Cerdella was reported to be pregnant with the emperor's son. Emperor Regulus was not at all interested in making his concubine instead he let Lady Cerdella seclusion her into childbirth. That's all I know, Lady. Duke Regulus Riddle loves his mother. More than anything." Eli said seriously.
" I know that when Duke Maximilian Riddle died automatically Duke Regulus Riddle was his successor. Makes the Emperor Regulus a little unhappy" Eli said, drinking the hot chocolate he had prepared.
Aleyza who heard it tilted her head in confusion.
" Why Emperor Regulus was not happy was not his it was good. Because Duke Regulus wasn't a barrier to Emperor Lucius being his successor?" ask Aleyza who asked again.
" I don't know why Emperor Maximilian thought that way. But before the death of Emperor Maximilian made a blood covenant in which Duke Regulus and Emperor Lucius could do nothing" Eli replied.
BRACKET....
" What a blood covenant" said Aleyza who did not believe....
