The King's Beloved Empress
Episode 21 (In revision)

Where would he take me?

Ellen continued to follow Aldrich behind her back. While walking, Ellen looked to the left right about the design along the room in the palace.

Bruk! Ellen hit Aldrich's back which stopped and it left Ellen in shock. There were two guards standing guard on the left right of the door that they were about to enter.

One of the guards opened the door allowing the two couples to enter. The King was sitting on a throne chair but it was not his main room.

"Sit there."Aldrich said as he pointed towards the seat next to him. Ellen nodded and sat down on the chair.

"You haven't explained yesterday."Aldrich said suddenly and it made Ellen furrow her brows in wonder.

What explanation?

Ellen thought for a moment trying to remember what she had forgotten. And it turns out he remembered something.

"Oh! Did Your Majesty ask about Miss Viona who I want to take away?"Ask Ellen.

Aldrich nodded.

"Look, Your Honor, I don't mean to defend bad people. A few days ago Lady Helen of Zion Castle died. And the killer is his own daughter, Miss Viona. But there's a cause. Miss Viona was severely depressed and she could not stand the treatment of her mother who always gave her violence. And I feel he can still be given a chance to live freely. He would be betrothed to a person he did not like at all and that person had already dared to harass him. So I wanted to take her somewhere so she could choose her own life."

"So I beg your Majesty give him a chance to live and do not punish him to die..."Ellen pleaded.

"What about yourself? Are you forced to make this match? Aren't you with your friend the same?"

Ellen gasped at Aldrich's question. In fact, he was also forced to marry someone he did not love. But he remembered again the words of his sister and also Maya. Ellen smiled as if she had already got the answer.

"All women who are betrothed to someone they don't know will be scared. So too with me. But I feel lucky to be in a match with your noble one. I'm grateful to be married to a mighty King like you. You just treat me well for now."Ellen said with a smile.

Just praise him for now...

Aldrich looked at Ellen. He was increasingly attracted to women whose nature he had never seen.

Ellen had wanted to wait for the King's answer but the King just kept quiet and stared straight at her face.

Oh, my God, can't you make me uncomfortable?

"Your Majesty.Where did you take Miss Viona?"Ask Ellen.

"To remote settlements."Answer Aldrich briefly.

"Where is His Majesty? Is it safe there? "

"For now it's pretty safe. Don't think about him. You better think of me and serve me well."Aldrich. Instantly it made Ellen squint her eyes.

Heh, He dared to glare at me like that.

"Aren't you curious about the woman Kath brought?"Ask Aldrich.

I honestly wonder. But since I don't care so I don't want to ask!

"Didn't Miss Anna explain herself? Princess Kath has also told me that Miss Anna has been friends with her majesty since childhood."Answer Ellen.

"Aren't you curious about my relationship with her?"Ask again Aldrich's fishing Ellen.

"If Your Majesty doesn't mind, you can explain about your relationship with him."Ellen said.

Aldrich smiled. "That woman used to like me a lot. But he just clapped one hand because I was never interested in him. He's probably still trying to get me anyway he's got my mom and sister's heart."

"Oh so, Your Majesty. Then thank you for explaining it to me."

Aldrich suddenly pulls Ellen's hand which makes Ellen surprised. Ellen fell on the lap of the King and it made her instantly panic.

"Yes..Her majesty...? Uhm!"

The cup! Aldrich kissed Ellen all of a sudden. She devoured the girl's lips greedily until Ellen had trouble breathing.

Aldrich actually wanted to do it again with his wife. But he realized the situation was not right anymore. That room was Aldrich's private secret room. No one had ever dared to enter the room, not even Queen Irene and Princess Kath. And luckily Ellen had entered the room for the first time. Even though Ellen didn't know it was Aldrich's secret room.

After being satisfied, Aldrich finally let go of his kiss and Ellen immediately moved from the lap of the King. He felt his feelings mixed.

"After this we have a lot of work. We must make the observations requested by the people. Some people also complain that there are some governments that have dared to bribe money."

"Ah.good your highness."Answer Ellen.

"And one more thing you need to know, this is my private room. No one dares to come in here."Say again The King.

"Ah, of course, your majesty. Then what about me? Didn't I enter your private room?"

"Except you. That's if I take you or I call you here."Said the King.

"Okay, my majesty understands."

Ellen then circled the room just looking around. There was nothing special or interesting in the room. But the room looked calm and the atmosphere was not boring. And there is one large wall photo showing the image of the King as a child with a man, his father.

Ellen judged the photograph that the face of the King was more dominant to his mother than the Father. The father had gray eyes and his hair was dark blue.

"What you see is my father."Aldrich.

"Yes, my majesty, I know. I've heard a lot of history about how great your late father was. He's already a public figure hero that everyone remembers."Ellen smiled as she admired the photo.

"You know who my father is?"Ask Aldrich.

Ellen nodded. "He has done a lot of good and sacrificed for the benefit of others. I feel sad because he sacrificed his life for others. I'm not surprised if it's passed down by his son, the King, my great husband."Ellen.

Duh, what am I really talking about?

Aldrich could not believe what he was hearing.

Aldrich did not know what to react but in his heart he was eager to hug his wife.

Geck, tok, tok. Someone knocked on the door from the outside which shocked the two couples.

"I'm sorry to bother the King and His Majesty the empress, but there's someone who wants to meet the King's majesty."A guard from behind the door.

"Tell him that I'll be here any minute."Answer Aldrich.

"Okay, your honor."

"Ellen, come with me to see that guy."

"Okay, your honor."Answer Ellen. For some reason Ellen was pleased that the king had called her name.
