Chapter 216: Kruel's Departure

Donovan looked at her with confusion.

"That's what she said," Silja clarified.

Donovan pursed his lips and his pupils contracted.

That woman...he gritted his teeth as murderous aura filled the room.

On the other hand, Silja was no less. Her whole body was shivering and her chest rose and fell heavily.

For a long time, no one said anything and the room filled with a heavy silence.

"Seat down," it was Donovan who broke the silence and pulled Silja towards the bed.

Silja was too tired to resist him.

"What I had with her or any other woman was before you. But I don't have anything to do with her or any other woman anymore," Donovan looked up at Silja's eyes. 

"I was a different man before I met you Silja. Women were nothing more than just a way to satisfy my needs and I had never taken more interest in them than that," his words were slow and steady. He wasn't ashamed about what he was. But it was necessary to clarify to her that now his heart only lies with her and her. 

"If I had known that one day I would meet a woman that I truly wanted, I would have waited for you. I can't do anything about that but what I can do is to assure you that from the moment I decided to marry you none of the other woman matters to me," He gently took her hands in his and placed a warm kiss on her knuckles.

"I have married you and from that moment I'm yours, please trust me on that," he said softly.

Silja looked at him for a second before she turned her head aside.

She believed his words but still there was something inside her heart that was suffocating her. It was hard to even breathe for her. 

"You already know what kind of man I was before. But if my past bothers you then I can't do anything to change it, Silja," his heart broke when he saw her distrust in her eyes. She was hurt, he could tell, but there was nothing that could be done about that now.

Donovan gripped her hand tightly and put his forehead on their joined fingers.

Silja refused to look at him for a few minutes before she gently said, "I don't want to stay here," her voice broken between sobs.

Donovan lifted his head, 'Did she want to leave him?' his heart stopped for a moment at that thought.

He looked at her in shock. Silja turned her head and saw the fear in his eyes.

"I don't want to stay in this chamber anymore," she clarified.

In an instant, Donovan felt like his breath that was choking him was released again. He could still salvage the situation as long as she stays by his side.

"Alright…" he said in a deep voice.

He stood up and went to the side where his coat was hanging on the stand. He took it and wrapped it around Silja before lifting it in bridal style. He left the room the next second without delaying any further.

He brought her to her previous chamber and put her down on the bed.

Silja lay down on bed soon after without saying anything, her back facing him. Donovan looked at her but decided not to say anything. He wanted her to cool off first before they could have a decent conversation about it.

If it was his past that was bothering her then their life ahead won't be as he wanted. She won't be able to stay with him with such a throne in her heart. seeing her compromising in such a way was the last thing he wanted.

Donovan glanced at her at last before he entered the bathroom. He soaked himself in the bath to relieve himself from all the fatigue and stress. 

"Priscilla…." with closed eyes Donovan uttered that name which was now underlined with red ink in his head.

After bath Donovan came out and looked at the woman who was obviously pretending to sleep but he knew better.

He covered her with a blanket with slow and gentle movement.

Donovan stared at her for a long time before he laid down beside her with some distance between them.

He closed his eyes, pretending just like her but both of them better knew that sleep wasn't going to knock on their door at least for tonight.

"Knock…..knock…"

Early in the morning some started to knock on Silja's chamber door loudly.

Silja's eyes fluttered open from noise. She pushed her body up and saw Donovan getting out of bed and walking towards the door already. 

"Bamm…" he opened the door with swift motion and like usal Garrett stumbled in. But instead of falling this time Donovan caught him and pushed out.

"What's the matter?" With a frosty look on his face Donovan looked at Garrett.

"Kruel is leaving," Garrett informed with lowered head not intending to look inside the room. 

There were fine droplets of sweat on his face. When Garrett raised her head slightly, he met Donovan's bone chilling gaze and the frightened man lowered his head again.

Well he knew it was his death day. Prince Donovan doesn't like to be distributed his night time and especially today when he was his wife.

If not for prince Zivan who tricked him, Garrett would have never tried to come in the mouth of death. Just looking at Donovan's face he could tell that the prince has not gotten enough rest...well that was given since it was their wedding night...ahem..

Garrett stopped his wild thoughts. 

"Why so sudden?" Garrett was going to get a heart attack from fear when he heard Donovan asking calmly.

"I don't know, he sent a message to his majesty this morning," Garrett replied.

"Where is father and everyone?" Donovan asked. 

"They are preparing to see off Kruel," Garrett said.

"Okay, tell father that we will be there soon," Donovan said and slammed the door shut on Garrett's face.

Garrett blinked his eyes a few times before he heaved a sigh of relief and thanked God for sparing his life today.

Inside the chamber Donovan saw that Silja was still interested in pretending to sleep so he didn't say anything and left after wearing his shirt.

As soon as he left Silja woke up from the bed and stared blankly at the closed door.

At the small house that was assigned to Kruel and Evillene, the Royal family gathered to see off the guests.

"Sister Abrielle, it was nice meeting you after so long. It's just a pity that due to some unfortunate event we couldn't spend much time together," Evillene hugged Abrielle warmly like they were long lost friends.

Abrielle on the other hand felt like she was burnt from her touch and pushed her away not pretending a bit.

"I will miss you," Abrielle's arrogance didn't affect Evillene at all.

Abrielle glared at the woman in disgust. 

Evillene narrowed her eyes seeing that.

"Don't be too rude, you are not in the condition of offending me," Evillene's lips arched in the biggest smile and then she moved towards her carriage.

"I thought prince Donovan would come to see me off," Kruel, who was already sitting on his horse, said, looking around.

"I have even prepared a wedding gift for him," he added and sighed softly.

"Is that so?" suddenly they heard Donovan's voice and saw him walking over.

"Prince Donovan, you are here," Kruel said rather enthusiastically.

"How could I not come when you are leaving," Donovan replied.

"Don't say such a thing, someone might have misunderstood that you couldn't wait for me to leave," Kruel said.

Donovan smiled in reply. That was the case indeed.

"Anyway, it's almost time for me to leave. I have prepared a wedding gift for you, you will get it once I leave. I hope you will like it," Kruel said and turned his horse around. Donovan looked at the man who was smiling brightly as he mentioned the gift. Donovan was having a bad feeling about this gift of Kruel. 

Soon Kruel and his men left, Zivan's people followed them till they crossed the North border and entered the South.

On the other hand as soon as Donovan and Zachary return back to the castle they see a shadow guard come running in their direction.

"Your majesty, bad news," his chest was heaving up and down fiercely, he had come running all the way.

"What's the matter?" Zachary furrowed his eyebrows.

"The witch…. Orphelia is dead," the guard blurted out.

"What?!" Donovan and Zachary said at the same time hearing the shocking news.
