Chapter 184: Donovan And Benjamin

And sleeping with him on the same bed was nothing new for her. She has shared a bed with him a few times already so it should be alright right?.

With that, she closed her eyes and soon fell into a deep slumber.

Donovan smiled when he saw her sleeping soundly.

He also fell asleep with him in his arms.

The other day Silja woke up early in the morning. As usual, the other side of the bed was very cold as usual.

She looked out and saw the sun was out high in the sky.

As soon as she woke up Mira and a few more maids which were assigned by Donovan walked in.

"Good morning, my lady," maids greeted her and bowed their heads in unison before everyone started to do their respective works. 

They were roaming around the room preparing things that Silja was totally clueless about.

"Come on, my lady, we have to hurry," Mira said but she avoided meeting eyes with Silja.

"Why what's the matter?" Silja asked. She looked around how they seemed to be walking on the burning coals hurriedly.

"We have to prepare you for a spiritual bath and then go to the Northtara River for the bath before it's too late," Beth the talkative spoke up.

Sinthia who was most calm gave more information.

"It is a bath that every bride should take before the marriage ceremony. This is one of the holy ceremonies that you have to go through along with some other," 

"Actually this bath was supposed to be done earlier than sunrise but the price Donovan specially instructed us not to wake you up before you naturally do," Beth couldn't help but spill the beans. She was shocked when prince Donovan informed them to let Silja sleep. This was an important ritual and every one of the brides in the past had performed it without any delay or error.

Oops….but still there was an exception.

That was when Prince Donovan's mother married King Zachary. They had completed their ceremony away in the woods without anyone present. No one knows how they got married. King Zachary and the previous queen just came to the capital and announced.

King Zachary was the last descendant who had strength and claim to the throne so none of the people at that time could object.

Plus the previous queen has a special status and she came from the highest bloodline of the dragon's so marrying her was a win-win.

And that's how the first exception was made and now lady Silja will follow in her footsteps.

On the other hand, Silja was a bit surprised.

In Atlanea there was no such a ritual and no one has ever told her about the customs of dragons.

And why did Donovan interfere in the rituals?

Since she was supposed to walk up early he should have let that. She frowned as she thought about it.

"Ohh, my lady, don't worry about it. Eldest prince was just worried about you. And since he said so there won't be any problem," It was sinthia who spoke up.

Silja thought for a second and then walked out of bed.

They had always wasted quiet time so she didn't want to delay it any longer.

She first walked in and entered the bathroom.

Maids helped her change into a new plain white dress and then they all left for the bath.

On the other corner of the castle, Donovan is already done with his side of customs. After being changed into his usual clothes he gave some instructions to Garrett and left.

He straight walked to the lone tower that was assigned to Benjamin.

He dismissed all the people guarding the tower in the shadows.

The sound of cracking the steps echoed as Donovan's powerful feet landed on them one after another.

Benjamin, who was standing in his assigned chamber, whipped his head in the direction of the door. And not after two seconds the sound of someone knocking on the door resonates in the silent room.

He walked ahead and opened the door.

Both men looked at each other as they didn't speak a word for a second.

"Won't you invite me in?" Donovan was the first one to break the silence.

Benjamin didn't comment but he took on a step back and made room for Donovan to enter.

"This room looks like shabby for a prince like you. I'm sorry for the lack of our hospitality. I will order my man to change it right away," Donovan finished his sentence and turned around. 

"Huh? You realized that a bit late, Prince Donovan. This shows one of the reasons I shouldn't come here in the first place," Benjamin smiled.

"That won't do. Because if you are not satisfied with anything about us I can certainly change it,'' Donovan smiled and walked towards the chairs and table that was placed in the room.

He occupied one seat facing the window while gesturing to Benjamin to sit down in front of him.

Benjamin swapped his tongue on his lips, a bit unsure as he walked in.

Again both the men looked at each other but none of them spoke anything.

"I heard from Silja that you are against this wedding and want to take your sister back to your kingdom?" Donovan asked.

"Huh, she tells everything to you, doesn't she?" Benjamin's face revealed some disappointment instantly.

"Well, isn't that normal since she is going to be my wife? We shouldn't keep any secrets from each other," the man's red eyes shone brightly as the corner of his lips arched in a smile.

"What makes you think you will be able to marry her? I will never let that happen" Benjamin was unmoved in his stance.

"What if I say you will let her? And that is also tonight," Donovan's face was shining with confidence as he said that.

"Is that so? Then kindly tell me how would you make that happen?" Benjamin arched his eyebrows.

"Seems like prince Benjamin doesn't believe what I said," Donovan smiled even brightly. He wanted to stretch this conversation as much as he could because he knew that the harder Benjamin resisted, the harder he would fall.

"I certainly don't. Silja might be on your side but how long will she stay there? After all, blood is thicker than water. Sooner or later she will agree to my side," Benjamin leaned back with smug expressions on his face.

Donovan chuckled as he heard that.

He already knew how baseless his talk was about Silja being his sister.

And what a coincidence, Donovan was going to use the same move as Benjamin did. But he was going to present a totally opposite claim.

"Did I say anything funny?" Seeing the smirk on his face Benjamin's forehead creased.

"Because now that you mentioned your blood claim with Silja because I have found something very interesting about Silja and her blood relation with you," Donovan dropped the bomb on Benjamin's head and the said man was dumbfounded.

His eyes widened for a fleeting second and then he narrowed them again. The pulsing rate of his heart took a peek and then calmed down again.

"Huh, what are you talking about? Don't try to scare me," Benjamin smiled as if he didn't care at all.

"If there is nothing wrong then why are you getting afraid of what I said?" Donovan lifted his eyebrows.

The dragon prince was way too sly than Benjamin could think.

If Donovan has set the trap for him there was no way he won't fall into it.

"Don't try to trick me with your words say everything that you want to say," Benjamin frowned. Unknown fear was creeping in his heart. He couldn't help but feel that Donovan might have actually somthing?

He already knew about Silja's power so he might also have guessed that Silja was actually not a daughter of a human king and queen.

No….no how could he find out about that?

But what if that is actually the case.

"Well as you wish," Donovan sat up straight on the seat after uttering those words.

"Well it's is like this, when my father visited Atlanea and he accidentally met the girl who seems to hold the power of controlling nature," Donovan started.

And Benjamin who was hearing him with concentration looked at him with disbelief.

So that was the reason why king Zachary insisted on Silja to participate in the bride choosing ceremony.

Actually, something happened when Silja was in Atlanea and she hide it from everywhere.

For the first time, Benjamin became angry with Silja.

"Ahh..ahh that's not all," Donovan smiled even brightly.
