The Rise Of The Queen Ernest

Alena's Request

Alena returns to the room secretly that night, Amy and Agnes are already waiting for her but Alena asks them to sleep in their room because she does not want to be disturbed by anyone. Lucius returned to the room that was reserved for him and Bastian. Although he had to occupy the guard room but he was willing because he wanted to help Ernest.

That night, they get a very meaningful clue. Just looking for the whereabouts of Mauren's daughter they suspect is still alive but why would the person who wrote the book say that Ernest is Mauren's daughter? Is the theory Alena made wrong? Is Mauren's daughter really Ernest?

If rethought, everything can happen especially the king and queen did not say vulnerable when the incident occurred. They could have gone to treatment after Mauren's daughter left not long so Alena was indeed the daughter of Mauren because at the time the king and queen did treatment, Mauren had given birth. Incomplete information caused different perceptions so that the night made Alena not sleep at all due to the amount she thought.

Alena sat in front of the window, staring into the darkness of the night. His two eyes could not be invited to cooperate, whether until when he would be like that, he himself did not know. It turned out that not only Alena could not sleep, Lucius was the same as himself. The man looked uneasy, he did not expect much to be hidden by the sana and royal queen of Kent Arsia.

Although it was none of his business as there was no connection with Kenneth's kingdom but he had already promised to help Ernest. Lucius came out of the room secretly, he went to Alena's room through the window. The man climbed up cautiously and was surprised that Alena was sitting in front of the window. Alena was surprised, the dark room made her almost throw the prince Lucius with a knife she always hid.

"What are you doing, Prince?" Alena stepped towards the window and looked out the window as she had to be vigilant.

"You alone, why don't you sleep and sit alone?" Lucius jumped through the window to get inside.

"I couldn't sleep because there was so much that I couldn't sleep at all."

"I don't either, Ernest," Lucius pulled Alena over and rubbed her cold face, "I can't sleep at all, so I came here."

"Going up to the window and into the room of a princess is not a good deed, Prince," Alena's hands were already coiled around the neck of Prince Lucius.

"If so, I'll do something else that's not good!"

"What do you want?" alena's question came to a halt because Lucius had already kissed Alena's lips.

Alena who got the kiss was not surprised because it was not their first kiss. Alena replied, the kiss that Lucius gave even the two of them were already tightly hugging each other.

"It feels like taking you to bed, Ernest," whispered Lucius who was kissing Alena's cheek.

"My bed is there, you can take me there if you want!"

"Is this some kind of invitation for me?" Lucius pushed Alena slightly and looked at her face fixedly.

"What do you think, Prince? Am I inviting you or is there some other meaning to my words?"

"Why do you have a tongue but I'll take you to bed the way you want!" Lucius carried Alena and led her to the bed. They both can not sleep, so they both will spend time in bed of course they will only talk.

Alena was in the arms of Lucius who was sitting and leaning on the head of the bed. Lucius' hands were even endlessly rubbing Alena's head making her feel at ease.

"Tell me, what makes you sleepless, Ernest?"

"I was thinking if I could be Mauren's daughter."

"There's no need to think about it because you won't find the answer."

"I don't want to but the lack of information makes me draw so many conclusions that I even guessed!"

"Well, I'm like that too. Because king Leon and queen Hana did not mention the vulnerable time the incident happened to make us so must guess."

"I should have asked about it. Should I go see them again secretly?" alena asked, raising her face.

"I don't think it's necessary because the second time can make the enemy suspicious!" Lucius rubbed Alena's face slowly, "We will definitely know the truth soon. The fifteenth day is soon, I hope you order Agnes to find out what the enemy is up to!"

"I'm going to do it but I want Bastian to keep watch, maybe there's another spy."

Alena changed her seat, they kissed again. Lucius laid Alena down slowly, it seemed like tonight she would be in that room. He would leave later before anyone realized his existence.

"Take me tonight, Lucius. I want you in my room!" alena Pinta.

"As you wish, Ernest. We've never been like this before, I think we should enjoy this kind of time together for our relationship to get closer."

"You want to get closer to me? Aren't you gonna regret it later?"

"I would be so sorry if I had wasted such a great woman like you!"

Alena smiled, the life she is living right now, is it hers? Whether that life will be his or only for a moment considering that the body he occupies is not his. Thinking about it made Alena's smile disappear suddenly. Alena turned away, it didn't feel fair but she was just Ernest's replacement.

"What's wrong? Did I speak wrong?" lucius asked as Alena's attitude suddenly changed.

"There's nothing, Prince. It's almost morning, I think it's time we go to bed!"

"You're right, Bastian will wake me up later before your two servants come."

Alena nodded, she turned back and hugged Lucius. Whatever will happen to him later, no one knows but for sure he must enjoy the time he has as much as possible because it could be tomorrow, he said, the day after tomorrow or even a few more days his soul disappeared and Ernest's soul returned to his body and it could be, they returned to how they were after he revealed the crime that occurred and captured the real witch. It's not fair, but that's what life is like.

"Remember if you ever knew a woman like me, Prince," Alena said.

"What do you mean?" asked Lucius in wonder.

"Not all words have to be interpreted but I want you to remember me if one day my attitude changes by itself!" alena Pinta.

Lucius really did not understand Alena's words. Whether there was a definite purpose he knew, Alena's words contained a certain intent that he did not understand at all. Alena was asleep when Lucius asked. Intention to ask should he get rid of it but he hopes there is no meaning to what Alena said.

They both fell asleep hugging each other. It didn't feel like the togetherness was fleeting, it felt like looking at Alena's face when she woke up but Lucius had to hold it all down because Bastian had already called her so she had to leave.

Alena does not know about Lucius' departure, but wakes up when Amy and Agnes enter the room to serve him.

"Good morning, Princess." said Amy with a sweet smile on her face.

"Get you some water, Amy. I'm thirsty," pinta Alena.

"Just me!" Agnes rushed to get some water and gave it to Alena.

Alena looked at him, Agnes returned suspicious. Agnes acted as if there was something she was trying to convey and sure enough, a paper Agnes slipped under a glass when drinking water was given.

"What are you going to eat this morning, Princess?" ask Agnes.

"I want red bean soup!"

"Well, Princess" Agnes came out of the room, to make a bribe. Alena immediately saw the paper given by Agnes after the servant came out of the room.

"I'm being watched so everything I give don't eat princess. I have to pretend to obey their orders so that they don't get suspicious!" it was a piece of writing given by Agnes.

Alena tore it into shreds. The more Agnes is trusted by the enemy, the more Agnes can infiltrate to find out if her guess is correct or not.
