The Happy Ending Love Story

The Empress Crown #4

"Please grant some of my wishes Your Majesty."

Sofia's voice echoed. His desire sounds clear.

"What do you want?"

As if agreeing with Janetta Oliver's position, Alex opened his voice.

"One day please release me and my two servants, that's the first."

Alex's forehead is back in a frown.

"Then the second and last, please allow me to leave the palace. I'll just look around. Not every day, just two or three days a week." Sofia.

"Out of the palace?" Alex repeats Sofia's words.

"I will not wander inside the palace. I'll go in and out through the back door. I'll keep my identity a secret."

Smile on Sofia's lips.

"Please do as you please." That was Alex's last word before he left.

"Your Majesty, call me Sofia. You don't have to rebuke me, just remember my name." Sofia breathed. "We will not meet again, not in the future? I'm not interested in living a real married life with you. Please understand." Sofia is trying to control herself.

Alex stopped for a moment. Sofia could see that back.

"And please forget about that."

Sofia's voice was trembling. She misrecognizes and even cries in front of Alex.

Instead of answering, Alex walked faster and disappeared between the darkness just like that.

Sofia's body collapsed onto a chair not far from her. His heart rate jumped many times. He didn't imagine dealing with an emperor that difficult.

Although in a dream he had met the emperor, but it still felt different. Feels suffocating.

The emperor's matter had been resolved sooner than he had expected. He just needs to live hiding like a mouse until Janetta Oliver walks into the palace.

Sofia tried to remember her time. That should not be long. After that she would give birth to the emperor's son and become empress. That's when Sofia will ask Alex for her freedom.

'Felix'

Considering Janetta gave birth to the emperor's son, Sofia touched his stomach. She also gave birth to the emperor's son in a dream. Very similar to his father, so indistinguishable.

This time the child would not be born as the son of the emperor and then die in the hands of his own father. Sofia is determined to change everything.

The next morning came a messenger from the emperor who was carrying a silver round plate, the envoy said if Sofia could use it to get out of the palace. It was a direct sign from the emperor if he had been allowed to go in and out of the palace.

Sofia let out a rough sigh. He wants to thank Alex by sending a letter but Sofia says it soon. He doesn't want to look pretentious with Alex. Their deal was far from enough for him.

From today Sofia will be living her life.

There is money, but not much. There were no valuables from Barell's house that Sofia had brought. His family may be quite rich but he himself is poor.

Sofia looked at the pomegranate red-eyed ring in her hand. It was his mother's only treasure.

Today Sofia plans to exit the palace. He's going to the market. He wanted to sell the ring for capital. Sofia has the handicraft skills of her mother. He can embroider and make paper letters. This opportunity wanted him to use to raise money.

If one day she goes out of the palace, Sofia wants to live a simple life in the village. Of course he needs supplies.

Sofia tightened the robe that covered her body. Ema and Rona followed. Stung by Alex's silver plate, Sofia successfully exits the palace through the back door.

Sofia scans around. He's looking for a jewelry store.

When finished with his business. Sofia immediately bought cloth, paper, needles, thread, as well as other equipment. Sofia will make handkerchiefs and letter papers. He'll sell it. Where and to whom Sofia had not thought about it.

"I need the flowers to dry." Sofia muttered softly.

He's back at the palace. He held the item he bought onto the table and then observed it. For embroidery handkerchiefs it does not matter because there are already threads and needles. For letter paper, additional items are needed, namely dried flowers.

Sofia needs to dry the flowers. But the problem is that he has to find flowers. The flowers in his palace garden are less varied. Sofia needs flowers of all kinds.

"In the main garden there are so many flowers Miss." Timpal Ema's.

"Miss, there are so many kinds."

Sofia thought for a moment. He had already promised Alex not to wander around the main palace. But if it's night it's definitely okay. Sofia will sneak in at night. That's not a bad idea.

It was just a flower and in the garden there must have been a lot. It shouldn't be a problem.

"Later tonight I'll be there, can you take me there?"

Ema and Rona nodded.

The main palace of Elderbar is very spacious. Not enough a day to explore it. Lots of hallways and bends. If Sofia walks alone, she's still lost.

Finally they arrived at the main park. Sofia looked up at the size of the park. In the middle of the palace building, the park became the center. When the night of its beauty is illuminated by the light of the moon.

Sofia's eyes immediately scan around then recognize some kind of flower. Such as edelweis, lily, daisy, celosia, lavender, roses and many more. Sofia's eyes flashed with enthusiasm. He immediately approached the garden then plucked some flowers.

Sofia also orders Ema and Rona to help her.

Deserted atmosphere. Maybe because the night is getting late and the park is not a place of choice at night. Practically the garden becomes neglected, they are only beauty that is only seen and mere decoration. No more than that. Overall they were ignored. Just watch out for showing off. The park has a function as a symbol of the arrogance of its owner.

"It seems like enough." Sofia cried in a soft voice.

Her hands were already filled with colorful flowers. He wanted to make a test run before actually making it. He can go to the park again.

Sofia steps first to get away from the park, followed by Ema and Rona. Just a few steps he was startled by the sound of footsteps.

Sofia reflexively pulls her servant's hand to hide behind a tree. The surroundings were dark, so he could see a bright area of the garden.

A woman wearing a very beautiful nightgown looks. His hair was long, golden in color like sunlight. Her steps are graceful and charming. Behind him was followed by a man who was no less shining.

His black hair swayed as his legs moved. As it was in harmony with the darkness of the night, the hair contrasted with her white skin. His body is strong and tall.

The hands of the two men were joined. Honey was stirring around them. They were both without anyone else.

They stopped for a moment and then exchanged laughter.

Sofia knew those two people. The man whose eyes were affectionately staring at the woman in front of him was Alex de Elderbar, the emperor of the Elderbar Empire and her husband. While the woman who smiled shyly looked at Alex was Janetta Oliver. The famous emperor lady across the continent.

There was no jealousy in Sofia's eyes. He was just a little surprised to see Janetta indirectly. She was as beautiful as in her dreams.

Janetta should not have entered the palace. As Sofia remembered, it was about a year away. Sofia's eyes can not be separated staring at two couples who are blending love in front of her. They couldn't see him because he was hiding in the darkness.

Sofia immediately turned around and walked away. He's indifferent. That's none of his business.
