The Happy Ending Love Story

The Empress Crown #3

Sofia looked at the moon from her bedroom window. The moon is beautiful but lonely. All night alone up there. Sofia's heart sank. He accidentally met the emperor. Based on his dream, it should not have been.

Sofia thought for a long time. He also did things that he never did in his dreams. This time he lived his own way. He wants to be happy. He wants to live. Want to feel the essence of life.

The sound he heard in the river also made him curious. So far Sofia has not found out where the voice came from.

The night is not too late. Sofia wanted to take a walk in the garden to refresh her mind.

The wind hit Sofia's face. He came out on his own because he did not want to trouble Ema and Rona. He just wanted to take a walk for a while then come back soon. It felt like I was locked up in my own room. Honestly Sofia is lonely.

Surprised by the cold night wind, Sofia hugs herself. She was wearing simple sleepwear. It was very simple considering the fact she was the wife of the emperor.

Sofia walks around the park. The surroundings were dark, only moonlight illuminated his steps. As it was dark Sofia was about to return to the room, she was afraid of getting lost. As he turned around a huge black shadow appeared in front of him.

Sofia's steps stopped. The lack of light made the shadow in front of him seem mysterious. Sofia blinked her eyes a few times.

Sofia's feet moved unnoticed. I want to know who is standing in the dark. Sofia wanted to make sure who or what was there.

Sofia shrunk the distance. The figure standing in the darkness also moved closer. He stopped right under the moonlight. His face was revealed a little.

"Felix?" Sofia gasps. He covered his mouth with both hands.

The black shadow figure was someone. As soon as her face was exposed to the sun, Sofia recognized her. It was Felix. Sofia herself gave the name of the baby boy she gave birth to.

Sofia gasps. His eyes kept watching him. Exact same. It was Felix, his son in his dreams. His face was similar to that of the emperor. In the dream Sofia could not see her son. Since the baby the child has been kept away from her. But suddenly the memory of the dream repeats itself without him being able to control it.

Finally he could see Felix's face as he escorted him to his final resting place. It's not a funeral worth remembering he was the king's first child. Felix was sentenced to death for poisoning his concubine's son, and his funeral was made as a matter of fact.

The face of the person standing in front of him was exactly the same as Felix that Sofia had seen in her dream. Sofia's tears are spilled when she can control them. He was not dreaming but the memory of that night continued to be real. Sofia is convinced that the dream is a prophecy of her future.

The gods must have done it.

"Felix is that you?" Sofia asked with a trembling voice. Sofia could no longer discern whether it was real or illusory.

As his feet were about to approach, a light from the front seemed to shine. The light drew closer followed by hurried footsteps.

"Your Majesty, why are you so quick to walk."

Hearing the word 'His Majesty' Sofia gasped. Be aware of who is in front of him. Sofia backwards. She's mistaken. That man is not Felix. He is emperor. Who else in this neighborhood would be called His Majesty if not that person.

In an instant the atmosphere became a light that was originally dark. Many servants carried candles in their hands.

Sofia immediately rubbed her wet cheeks and straightened her back. Master himself then bow.

"Greetings to the Sun Elderbar, His Majesty the Emperor Elderbar may the love of the God Elderbar always accompany." Sofia said slowly.

As there was no answer, Sofia raised her gaze. The same look as he received at the hunting grounds this afternoon. Cold and piercing.

Sofia bit her lip.

"Is there anything you would like to tell me, Your Majesty? If you please I offer this unworthy residence of mine to His Majesty."

Their eyes still meet. Still no answer. Sofia's body was trembling.

"Miss, what's going on here, my God! Greetings to the Sun Elderbar!" Rona's voice echoed in the garden, soon disappearing in the wind.

He runs in a hurry when he finds Sofia who is not in the room then sees the light in the park. She was worried something happened to Sofia.

"I'm just going for a walk. Unconsciously her legs got here."

That sound. The voice that Sofia with at her wedding ceremony. The typical voice of the man who said his wedding vows with him. Sofia shudders.

"There's definitely something you want to say. Please enter my place Your Majesty. I can serve tea." Sofia base stale.

"No need I'll be right back."

"Wait for Your Majesty. Can I ask you for a minute? It won't be long. I have something to say."

Sofia ventured to open her mouth further. He has a mission. Something that will change his future.

Alex looked up and opened his mouth.

"Leave us a minute."

Hearing Alex's word all the servants back off. Leave two people alone with some abandoned candles.

"How are you, Your Majesty. We meet again."

Alex did not answer.

"What brings you here? Was it because of an incident at the hunting grounds this afternoon? Please forgive me if I am guilty. I won't repeat it again. You must be surprised to see the person who should be imprisoned inside the palace is there."

Alex's forehead is wrinkled. But he's still tight-lipped.

Sofia took a deep breath. He won't back down even if Alex is silent.

"Call me Sofia. You may have forgotten my name, Your Majesty."

This is their third meeting. Sofia introduced herself.

"I know."

Alex's answer was short.

Sofia tried to smile thinly.

"Your Majesty let's be friends."

The atmosphere returned to silence after Sofia's words that seemed to make Alex stunned.

"Even though we are married, I am just a wife on paper. I know it. I will not demand much Your Majesty. I'm aware of my position."

"Are you angry because I just came after the wedding ceremony?"

"No." Sofia answered quickly.

Alex's forehead is wrinkled.

"Let's make friends and make a deal together."

"What do you mean?"

"I know why you married me. Even though I am your first wife, I am not the empress. I am only the wife of the emperor. Isn't that the reason I'm here, because the empress' crown itself from the start wasn't for me. Isn't it?"

Alex's face hardened.

"Your Majesty, I will not stand in your way to bring Lady Janetta into the palace and later become empress. I will support you, but please grant some of my requests."

Alex's eyes are round and his face pias as someone's name comes out of Sofia's mouth.

Janetta Oliver's. The lover of the commoner Alex. She is not an extraordinary beauty. But his calm and fresh nature shook the heart of the emperor. It has become an open secret in the upper class. Even the emperor had bought a noble title for Janetta's family for her love for the woman.

But its origin cannot be ignored. It was therefore most likely to bring Janetta into the palace and remain beside her.

This loophole will Sofia use to change her future that is in the dream.
