Saving The Abandoned Empress

Chapter 54



54 Chapter 54 ~ “Terrible Dream”

The night before their trip ~

Eleanora was lying on her bed with gloomy face. She thought it was the maids who let Cathain in to her garden but what she got to know from them was something different.

He found his way on his own and didn’t even had to ask anyone for to lead the way. It was like he has been here a lot of times.

Cathain in the past, didn’t even come that many time times in her house and even if he did, he never went to her bedroom or garden. So, how did he knew the way this time?

Eleanora was lost in thoughts when she suddenly heard a knocking on her window and a smile show up on her face.

She threw away the blanket over her and rushed to open the window, with a warm gaze and smile as she called his name.

“Ain...” Eleanora called out to the blonde boy with light blue coloured eyes.

“May i come in, My lady?” Ain asked and Eleanora step aside to let him in.

After getting in, he saw her packed luggage and smiled faintly.

.....

“Are you going somewhere, Ele?” Cathain asked as he wanted to play a littlr dumb with him.

“Ohh, yes. I am going to the Rua Kingdom. So i can’t come for practice with you in this month.”

Eleanora said softly to him and Cathain felt a little heartache.

‘Just when will you talk with such a warm gaze and tone with Cathain, Ele?’

‘How long will it take you to smile like this to Cathain?’

He not only felt devastated but was also feeling guilty because he was lying to her.

He could get close with her because he was Ain, not Cathain.

The more he though that Eleanora can accept anyone except Cathain, He want to yell at her that doesn’t seeing Ain atleast remind her about him?

Everytime when he thinks about how she will react if his lie gets caught, he becomes terrified at the thought of her leaving him.

It’s been a year since they become close as Ele and Ain, his feelings are becoming more deeper and deeper.

At first he was only curious about her, then when he started to get visions about the future, he started to feel afraid for no reason.

He doesn’t know what will happen in the future for her to become like this but he knows that he is also responsible if she becomes like that.

“Ain... What are you thinking?” Eleanora touched his hands as he was in a daze that he didn’t even noticed her callings.

Cathain came back to his senses and seeing Eleanora who leaned a little closer to him, his heart skipped a beat.

Eleanora was smiling at him, he never saw her smiling up to so closely.

Seeing him a little surprised, Eleanora chuckled and flicked his forehead.

“What weird things are you thinking?” Eleanora asked and Cathain rubbed his forehead a little as she really flicked him hard.

Eleanora was laughing at his silly look, where he just smiled at her and they continued to discuss about their daily topics till midnight...

He was discussing a new topic to her and then felt something heavy on his shoulder. Eleanora had fall asleep and leaned on his shoulder to sleep.

A warm feeling filled up Cathain’s heart and he put his head above hers to lean on her too.

It was feeling so perfect, he could already imagine their future in the imperial library.

They both can laugh and discuss about things while leaning on each other like this... looking at the bright moon time to time.

They can also take a stroll in the garden at night, walking with her hands into his hands.

Cathain laughed a little because it was too early to think this. She is only twelve now, he needs to be patient and wait for her to grow up a little more.

If it was a seventeen months ago, someone told him that he would behave like this... he would call that person insane.

Because never once in his life, he though that he would fall for the person whom he was always jealous off.

She seemed to take away all the attention and praise he should receive.

But now he realised that, as long as you work hard for your own happiness; you won’t care about what other people’s say.

She would do better because she was curious and interested into the study, where he was busy in winning and defeat her.

This was why, he noticed her warmness so late, if he had felt his real feelings under his jealousy a little earlier; then they might already be lovers.

They had been engaged for two years.

Cathain’s gaze fall on her hands and placed it on his hands and gripped it. Both of their ring finger was empty, even if they are engaged.

That day, Ten-year-old Eleanora put on her ring herself that day, but later she seem to remove it.

He regretted his past decision to rebel against his father by not attending their engagement ceremony.

If he had attended, he could put the ring on her finger, where she would put a ring on his finger too.

Cathain sighed, then carefully carried her in his arms and moved her into her bed.

He took the blanket to cover her and kissed her forehead before he left through the window.

‘See you in the morning, My empress!’

After reaching his own bedroom, He laid on the bed with a happy smile and soon fall asleep.

But then Cathain had another dream...

A girl was wearing a beautiful white dress and walked towards the podium, with a bouquet of red roses in her hands.

Her silver hair was hidden underneath her white veil she was wearing, that also hide her face from his eyes.

She was lead to the podium by her father and her father took her hands to put it into his hands with a gloomy face.

He didn’t mind her father much as all his attention was on her.

Even if he couldn’t see her eyes, but the warm and bright smile on her face was clearly visible to him.

That was the brightest smile she had ever on her face and he ever saw on her too.

Her hand was much smaller then his, he suddenly had the urge to protect this hand forever, so he gripped her hands tightly as the priest started to recite their wedding vows.

His gaze never moved away from her and she didn’t seem to notice it because she was wearing a veil.

“Now i pronounce you as husband and wife. You may kiss-”

Before the priest could finish his sentence, Cathain had lifted up Eleanora’s veil and kissed her soft lips intensely.

“Oh, They already kissed.” The priest spoke awkwardly.

“Ohooo!! Too hot!!”

All the guest exclaimed and cheered up for their new Empress, the moon of their empire.

Although Eleanora was startled because of his sudden action and shyness, because of the guests blant comments about them, but she didn’t hate it.

Because it was Cathain, her husband and The love of her life who was kissing her.

She wrapped her hands around his neck and he pulled her more closer by grabbing her waist as he continued to interwine their tongue and explore her mouth.

Her blue eyes flickered with happiness and love for him, as the distance between their lips widened.

Eleanora was looking at him shyly with a red face, she was looking breathe taking in her wedding dress and her crown.

Cathain felt warmness and overwhelmed love spread to his body. His hands was still wrapped around her waist and his red eyes fixed on her.

He wanted to express his love to her, how much he missed her and how much regret he feels even if he doesn’t know where they are coming from.

But the moment he opened his mouth to speak, a deep scary cut appeared on her neck and blood continued to flow out from there.

Her beautiful white wedding dress turned into a shabby prisoner white dress, which was dyed in red because of her blood and her long silver hair was cut to her neck length from where the cut started.

Jewel blue eyes, which was beaming with happiness just now, turned lifeless and her smile faded.

“Why did you killed me, Cain?”
