Love Agreement With The King

"Help then?" The marquis narrowed his eyes and frowned his forehead, "have you lost yo YR mind?"

Roselyn returned the glower, "I have to remind you that I wasn't rich nor from high society before marrying John so you shall think twice before saying such things."

Robert remained quiet for a few minutes until he cleared his voice, "If I am not wrong you weren't poor when you met John so …"

Roselyn intervened before he could finish his sentence at all, "it doesn't change the fact I am still of a lower-middle class so whenever you offend anyone by their status I feel involved too." Roselyn said holding his gaze.

John cleared his voice, "I agree with Roselyn, nonetheless the Queen of Scotland. I also have to add that my mother, came from poor people too yet she was one of the greatest rules of all the time. You shall try to judge of character based on their social status." John intervened, glancing at the marquis who hearing him lowered his gaze not daring to talk over him.

"However, what do you suggest to do to help lower classes people?" john darted his gaze to Roselyn.

Roselyn smiled proudly hearing her husband take her side and let her speak in front of so many politics despite she was unfamiliar with matters of policy.

"I suggest we gather them in houses where they can have a bed to sleep on and some food to eat. So they won't be homeless anymore, maybe we can send them basic ingredients so they can cook for themselves." Roselyn said, John noted down what his wife said and then he smiled.

"Sounds like an amazing idea!" He exclaimed.

"I will bill their rent myself. Moreover, I was thinking we can involve the inhabitants as well, and ask them if they want to bid to buy them food." John added few ministers nodded as if they agreed to their proposals.

Robert shook his head, "I am not going to waste money for drunk homeless people."

Roselyn swallowed down the urge to scream at him how despicable he was, "Nobody forces you to do it. But if you don't want to try to fix the problem then you shouldn't complain about it either."

She traveled her gaze to the other guests, "please raise your hand if you would like to take part in my initiative."

John's hand was the first one to raise and in a matter of few instants mostly of the hands raised and Roselyn was kvelling out of every pore of my body.

She was so glad that they accepted to help poorer people and they even trusted her.

When the meeting was over and all the politicians left, Roselyn walked closer to John and sat on his lap.

"I can't believe my proposal would have been accepted or even taken into account, on the contrary, it had almost the clear majority of acceptances." Roselyn noted to John who nodded, he stroked her hair behind her ear, "you even stood up to the most annoying marquis of the council." He added amused.

Roselyn giggled, "I couldn't stand him." She rolled her eyes at the thought, "how can he be so devoid of empathy?"

John shook his head, "I don't know but he has something to say every meeting."

Roselyn was glad to hear that, for a second she thought he had something to do with her or that he disliked her for some reason but hearing he was just a tense and argumentation person relieved her.

"You did a great job with your initiative, I am proud of you." He kissed her nose softly and then caressed her cheek.

"Thanks for having taken my side," Roselyn whispered as she closed her eyes when his lips placed on her soft skin.

"I will always do. Remember that."

The maids walked in ruining the moment to clear the room and ask if they needed anything.

Kathy asked them how the meeting was when and Roselyn told her everything.

When she finished her explanation Kathy was looking at her with a proud gaze, she clammed her hands joyfully, "that's my Roselyn!"

Later on Elijah, Sebastian and Felicity walked into the room as well to hear how the day was.

As the days passed by, Roselyn visited the poor side of the city to be the food and clothes. It was insane how Scotland was divided into two opposite factions, the poor and the rich. And nobody dared to do anything to try to change the situation, during the years people always complained about how awful the situation was, yet they didn't wonder how those people ended up in such a condition nor if they needed help at all.

Roselyn knocked on each door and gave them some bread, soup, and potatoes. Then she spent some time learning about their stories and if they had families.

She learned that many of them had families in other countries and they sent them all the money they had.

Roselyn knew they were good people, she asked them the names Of their kids and when she got back to the castles she did some researches to verify if what they said was true.

Roselyn noted down the names of the kids she found and once she got home she asked the people who worked for her to send them some food and things they potentially needed as if sheets, clothes, candles, toys, and so on.

Then she wanted to do the same for the poor people of Kratez so she walked out of the carriage in front of some houses where she always knew poor creatures lived there in the streets.

She walked by a group of creatures who when they recognized her turned to the side looked at her from head to toe, they looked at her as she knocked on the door of the houses and then walked him to give them her gifts. She wasn't scared that they may smell her half-human half-fairy blood because she trusted them and she knew she was enough powerful to defend herself.

She visited five flats and after one hour she walked to her Kratez house to check how it was and clear it.

But as soon as she reached it the view shocked her to the point that she slapped her mouth and widened her eyes, she couldn't believe her eyes.

The walls and the door of the house were almost completely shuttered, painted of red with some graffiti which declared war on John for having abandoned them.

The door was opened so she opened it slowly and made sure nobody was there before she walked in.

The house was in great disorders, the objects in the kneelers were crushed on the floor, chairs, and table partly broken.

The house which first was filled with good memories and positivity now was symbol of chaos and destruction.

Why would they think John abandoned them when he helped them for so many years? Roselyn was shocked, she got outside of the house as hastily as she could because she couldn't afford such a terrible view anymore.

Roselyn thought it was only an act of vandalism but the truth was that what the creatures did was a pure threat in John's regards.

When she came back to the castle and told him what she saw John rebuked her for having gone to Kratez alone he explained to her the secret meaning behind that message.

They were going to rebel and the destruction of his rent was only a warning.

Roselyn's face grow paler after his explanation she understood why the creatures looked down at her oddly, it was because they were already planning something

"Don't worry, I will take care of this and they won't annoy any more," John said reassuring Roselyn whose face grow more preoccupied, she couldn't stop repicturing how the house was left and completely gesture.

"Why would they declare your war? If it wasn't you half of them would be dead, the other half would have been haunted or they would barely have a place to stay. You save them and that's how they thank you?" Roselyn spat, her voice was peaked high and angry.

"I know," John smiled, taking her in her arms, "that's how their mind works, whenever you move out of Kratez they think you've changed and you turned your back on them." John rectified, but "I don't care, they just have to let you out of this and don't touch you."

Roselyn shook her head, "no I am involved, if they declared you wat they declared it to me too." Roselyn frowned on her forehead, she was aware of her capabilities and she would never let her kids without a father so she was willing to fight each one of them to save his husband and the father of her sons.

It was time for Roselyn to prove to them all what she was capable of doing once and for all.
