Chapter 226: Relationship With Her Mother

"What you don't know," Silja snapped at Donovan and pushed him away. Donovan was even more shocked seeing her extreme reactions.

"I'm sorry Silja," Donovan apologized immediately.

"Leave it," She soon realised that she was overreacting. 

"You can go out, I'll be back in a minute," Silja said and turned around to proceed to take the other dress she wanted to wait for.

Donovan then didn't say anything and moved out of the room. Silja looked back at him and sighed. She lost her temper for no reason. After all, he didn't know that this dress was precious to her. And she should have known from his habit of breaking the dresses without thinking twice.

In the end, Silja sighed again and her mood turned to soar.

Silja then changed her outfit and came out.

"Come here," as soon as Silja came out, Donovan, who was sitting on the bed, called her.

"Are you okay now?" Donovan asked first.

"Yeah," she just nodded plainly.

"Do you want to say something?" When Donovan saw her opening and closing her mouth a few times he asked.

"Yes, I shouldn't have gotten mad at you," Silja looked up at him.

"That's alright. It was my fault indeed," he smiled and pulled her in his arms. 

"Hmmm, it was," Silja just hummed and didn't say anything for quite a while.

"If you want to share something you can," he added after quite some time. Donovan lay down on the bed and pulled her on his chest too.

Silja put down her head on his broad chest as she listened to the strong thudding of his heartbeat.

She closed her eyes and lost herself in the rhythmic sound against her ears.

Donovan also closed his eyes and then put his hand on her red locks. He gently massages her head with his fingertips.

Silja's red hair was unique and very soft, she also had a good length of hair that reached below her back.

They just look like a beautiful waterfall when she keeps them open. He liked it that way but recently she has started to pack them in a bun. Not that she looked bad but still it was good with the open hair.

He kept thinking about all this in his head while Silja was lost in her own world.

"I don't have a very close relationship with my mother," suddenly after a long time, he heard her speak. Silja's voice was very soft, and can barely be heard.

Donovan didn't say anything and just kept listening without saying much.

"She always keeps her distance from me, behaving formally just like a queen," Silja continued. She recalled the conversation she had with her mother which never lasted more than a few sentences.

"But she behaves differently with Benjamin," Silja opened her eyes and her voice cracked. A lump of emotions blocked her throat.

"I never understand why," Silja added.

"Although she never was partial to me in anything, she provided me with everything that a princess needed," Silja thought about the time she spent in Atlanea. She was never short of anything. And most of the things were prepared by her maids. Doris was a strict queen who has always kept her aura and lifestyle of a queen. She was even particular about the things her children wear. Benjamin and Silja have received all proper antiques from childhood in a strict environment.

"But she is emotionally detached with me so much.." Silja couldn't speak anymore and went silent for a while.

Nor did Donovan say anything. She didn't want him to say anything at all. All she needed was just someone to listen to her.

"But there was one time when I felt that she wasn't much distant from me," Silja Smiled bitterly when she recalled that.

"When I was eight years old I was playing on the seashore. And fell from the high rock to the water there was no one around me and I ended up hurting myself more in effort to come out of the water," Donovan ran his fingers softly on her cheeks. As if trying to soothe the pain she must have felt at that time.

"I was badly injured and soaking in water for a long time made me ill even more,"

"That night mother held me in her arm the whole night and tended my wounds and tried everything to lower my fever," that was the first time she took me in her bed with her," 

"I was I'll but could feel the warmth coming from her. She stayed by my side for straight three days," 

Donovan kept humming in the middle indicating that he was hearing.

"On the fourth day, I finally opened my eyes and found her by my side. Smiling gently from above at me. That made me smile too," just a recollection of that day made Silja's eyes go wet.

"She fed me herself and then gave me my medicine. But then she left. I thought that my mother was finally changed but she never once entered my chamber again for the next two days,"

"When I was finally healed I went to meet her in the expectation that she will pat my hand with her gentle hand and soft smile,"

"But what I got was very different from what I thought. I again met with the cold and indifferent mother from before. I got a bit disappointed that day but then got used to her behaviour,"

"I heard her telling my father one day that I was going to leave them one day and they will feel very bad if that happens and thus they shouldn't attach themselves with me much to avoid such a pain of separation," Silja sighed.

"She might have her reasons for staying away from me but everything related to her is very precious to me. Everything that she prepared I always took care of it with all my heart," 

"Those things are her love for me and that's all I'm happy with now," after that Silja went silent. She has never shared such things with anyone but him.

When she was done Donovan pulled her up and met with her eyes. 

Looking at him with tears, not of regret but because of reasons that she emptied her heart and let go of all the resentment.

"I'm sure she must have some reasons for her behaviour," Donovan said. He wanted to tell that she was behaving that way, maybe because she wasn't her mother at all. 

Donovan has always thought that Silja's family treats her very well since he has heard from her father that Silja's parents were reluctant to send her to the north and only did so when threatened.

And when he saw how Benjamin was protective of Silja he did not doubt that.

And that was the reason that he even thought that their assumptions might be wrong about their theory of Silja being adopted.

But never had he thought that Silja might have actually suffered like this.

From what she said Queen Doris was not much fond of Silja. The reason that Silja wasn't actually her daughter explains her emotionless behaviour. But what made him think again was the last story Silja told about taking care of her when Silja was sick.

Well seen like he should meet this woman named Doris Castemont. The woman must have many things to talk about.

With that thought in mind, Donovan felt that he should plan a trip to Atlanea very soon.

It was soon the time of the celebration and Silja was ready to go with Donovan.

After a small nap with Donovan, she had forgotten about the dress and was normal again.

Tonight Silja and Donovan have again worn matching clothes. Silja was speechless when she saw that.

Well, what can she do when her husband was such a romantic man. Never in the world has anyone thought that a cold-hearted man like Donovan could behave in such a chicky way.

"Donovan, was this necessary?" Silja lifted her eyebrows and looked at the man who was setting his hair looking in the mirror.

"Of course, it is," Donovan turned around and looked at the girl. Silja was wearing a dress made from a fine cloth. Her whole dress was glittering with small diamonds. In her neck was the necklace made from the diamond as well.

Her hair was decorated with precious flowers and she was wearing the most expensive shoes available in the North. All this was handpicked by Donovan himself.

She has everything that a queen should have with the only exception of perfume.

Donovan prefers her usual fresh scent that can calm him down in just a few seconds. And he doesn't like any other smell masking it.
