Saving The Abandoned Empress

114 “Alexander’s Rage”

The cold breeze coming from the window made Eleanora feel cold, where the birds chirping sounds made her frown as it disturbed her sleep.

In annoyance, she turned around and placed the blanket above her head as it felt more warm and comfortable.

But something felt wrong... Why does her pillow feels so warm and heavy?

Eleanora blinked a few times as she removed the blanket from her face and tried to look around.

‘Huh?’

‘Why am seeing the emperor in my bed?’

Eleanora rubbed her eyes again and then she was beyond shock.

She wasn’t seeing things but it was indeed the emperor infront of her and moreover, on the same bed.

She was sleeping on his arms and his another arm rested on her waist.

.....

After looking around a little, the royal crest came to her view and she gulped in fear.

Not only she didn’t informed at home about her night staying here, she also slept at the same bed as the emperor.

‘Daddy is gonna kill me...’

Last night, The emperor had twirled her around till she felt dizzy and only put her down once he reached his room.

As Cathain was drunk, he couldn’t keep his balance and both of them fall on the bed together.

Eleanora didn’t knew if she should laugh or not.

She was about to get up, when Cathain hugged her tightly from behind and burried his face in her neck.

“Stop running away, Ele. I will fix everything... Stay with me.”

“...”

Eleanora become silent as she was lost in her thoughts.

As long as Duke Raven doesn’t gets caught for what he is doing, the past will be the same.

He will try to harm her and the duchy again.

His daughter will snatch everything away from her.

Can the emperor really fix everything and different from the past?

She didn’t knew when she fall asleep on his arms with this thoughts in her mind.

And then wake up beside him this morning.

Eleanora sighed as she looked at the young man beside her, who was sleeping peacefully.

His black hair was messy as well his clothes.

Eleanora’s lips curved up a little unknowingly as she saw him sleeping but as soon as gaze fall on his muscular chest, her eyes widened in shock.

She immediately got up and climbed up on him and spread his shirt to take a closer look.

‘What’s this?!’

The emperor had the same crescent moon mark on his chest, the place where he took the arrow for her; four years ago.

It was the same mark that she have on her back on the right, where he have it on his left side chest.

Eleanora trailed her fingertips on his mark gently to cheak if it was real or not.

But she was a little shocked as her hands was suddenly grabbed.

“What are you doing, My empress? Can’t wait till our weeding night?”

“H-Huh?”

Eleanora who didn’t understood his meaning at first tilted her head in confusion, but as soon as she understood it, her whole face turned red in embarrassment.

“H-How could you say that, Your Majesty?!”

Eleanora asked as she shuttered while Cathain sat up with her on his lap.

In the process, she backed down a little so she wrapped her hands around his neck as he hold her waist to keep her safe.

“Well, otherwise how do you explain your actions?”

“What actions-”

Eleanora paused on her words as she finally realised their situation.

It was her, who climbed up on his body.

It was her, who spread his shirt with such a force that his buttons came out from the shirt.

It was her, who touched his chest while he was sleeping.

Eleanora looked away in embarrassment, not knowing how to explain.

But she was shocked once again.

‘Why does it looks like the dress i was wearing last night?’

The light pink dress she was wearing last night was shattered on the ground as well her corset and the emperor’s black suit.

He was wearing only a white shirt and the pants of his suits.

‘No wonder i slept so comfortably... Wait, what am i wearing now then?!’

Looking down, Eleanora found herself wearing the thin white dress that she wore under the pink dress last night.

Seeing the dumbfounded expression of her, Cathain wanted to chuckle but knew she will be even more embarrassed if he did that.

‘Will she hit me with those tiny fists of hers, if i say i was the one who took off her dress...?’

Last night, Cathain woke up a little while later after Eleanora fall asleep.

He couldn’t sleep with his clothes on as he felt stuffy in those.

He took off everything except his pants and shirt as he knew she will be frightened if she sees his upper body naked as soon as she opens her eyes.

‘She is too innocent for a beast like me, who wants to eat her up everytime i see her.’

Cathain kissed Eleanora’s forehead and placed her head on the pillow, but she was frowning as she felt stuffy too.

In the end, Cathain choose to take off her dress and corset, leaving the thin white dress on her.

Cathain looked away as soon as he took a glance at her, the dress wasn’t that transparent but seeing her sleeping so defenceless, he was afraid he couldn’t control himself.

‘Don’t act like some beast now, Cain. The duke will skin you alive if you do something to her before the marriage.’

So, he choosed to silently sleep as he took her on his arms and hug her tightly.

Now, Cathain didn’t wanted to tell her the truth and enjoy the scene infront of him but it felt a little weird.

‘Why is she so silent?’

Eleanora was about to yell when Cathain placed his hands on her mouth and pinned her down on bed.

Eleanora widened her eyes in shock where, Cathain sighed in relief.

‘So, this was why she was so quite. Luckily i stopped her on time, otherwise the whole empire would know about this.’

As he felt that Eleanora had calmed down, Cathain slowly removed his hands from her mouth which has been bitten by her.

“Is this the way of yours to mark me as your own?”

Cathain asked as he glanced at the teeth mark on his hands.

But hearing him, Eleanora’s face puffed up in anger and Cathain chuckled as he stroked her hair.

“Okay, Okay, i won’t tease you anymore!”

Cathain spoke but then he froze a little before looking away shyly.

Eleanora was confused a little at first, but soon he understood his shy gaze.

The dress had a wide neck which exposed her cleavage a little, So Eleanora immediately put her hands on her chest to hide and galared at Cathain.

“Where are you looking at?!”

“Well, I am the only one who can see them...”

“Pervert!!”

Eleanora spoke as she pushed him and wanted to get up but Cathain caught her both wrist by his hands forcefully as he whispered on her ears.

.....

“Only for you, My empress.”

Cathain spoke as he kissed her earlob and loosened his grip over her.

As soon as she was free, Eleanora didn’t wait for another moment and fleed to the bathroom after picking up her dress from the floor.

Where Cathain chuckled as he saw her running away like he was about to eat her.

‘Let’s see how long you can keep running and your father saves you from my claws, My dear empress.’

Cathain laughed at himself before he stood up from the bed and dressed up.

He had actually waken up long before Eleanora did, but he choosed to close his eyes when she wake up to see her reaction.

Cathain was dressing up and chuckling at the same time as he kept thinking about her cute reactions again and again.

‘Am satisfied as long as she doesn’t push me away...’

‘Oh? Is that so?’

Cathain froze as he heard another voice ringing inside of him.

‘Are you really satisfied? You don’t want to see her under you, crying while panting your name?’

‘...No, i don’t.’

‘Stop lying to yourself, Emperor. Admit you want her to love you, desire you the way you do for her.’

‘No, I respect her will. I will give her time to accept me.’

‘But what if she doesn’t want you? Can you say for sure there is nothing between that Duke’s son and her?’

‘No, I trust her! There is nothing between them!’

‘Stop lying to yourself, You wouldn’t get drunk or keep her with you last night it that was the case.’

‘Stop it!’

‘You should stop lying to yourself first, The 34th emperor... listen to me, i will help you.’

‘No, i won’t be fooled twice by you, The first emperor...’

‘...’

Cathain chuckled as the another voice finally become silent. He recognised it right.

‘Or should i say, my deceased first soul who failed to express his love on his first life and then messed up my second life?

The so called curse in the imperial family which makes every emperor hurt their loved one?’

‘How do you remember?!’

‘Because am not empty headed like you. I can get her without anyone’s help. No one can snatch her away from me.’

Cathain spoke in his mind as he opened the bedroom door to came out, but then he froze with an dumbfounded expression before he was pushed into an corner with a brutal force in a blink of eyes.

“What did you do did to my daughter last night, You bastard!”
