Chapter 32: Separate Chambers

"I suppose it went well," Mother said.

Sometimes I wondered how she coped with her son acting so cold, as a mother I'm sure it should hurt her, but the way she acts, like it was a casual thing from Cedric, was he always like this?

Forget that... the main reason you're here, I didn't mind if Cedric was around, It only makes it interesting.

"Mother there's something I need to talk about" I began in a serious tone.

"Whatever it may be it should wait after breakfast"

"Its very important Mother"

"What is it then?"

"I think its about time I had my own chambers"

Mother's gaze fell on me Instantly, I felt Cedric stare but I didn't spare him a glance.

Mother frowned.

"Whatever do you mean my dear?"

"I heard from my dearest Husband that its traditional after a month of marriage for a wife to have her own chambers, and only come in contact when necessary" I state with a smile.

And of course I did my own research before coming here, even if Cedric told me so, I don't believe his words, so I took the liberty of reading some books Mother left me about the Laws of the Empire, I just searched for what I needed and it turned out it was traditional for separate chamber after a period of time.

"Yes its traditional but whats the hurry my dear, you and Cedric have only been married for weeks".

"Tomorrow makes it a month Mother" I said with a dashing smile.

And of course I did check the date, I was surprised it was already a month, has it really been that long? How time flies.

"Has it?" Mother said with a thoughtful face.

I eagerly nod my head.

"I suppose it has"

I smiled more finally facing Cedric who didn't take his gaze off me, He was now leaning the chair, a hand against the table, as his fingers table the smooth wood, gently.

I gave him a smug look, resisting the urge to stick my tongue at him but that would make me childish, but I so wished I could.

"Cedric dear forgive me I didn't check the calendar, I haven't realized it has been a month"

Cedric was still silent, I was beginning to think he was mute, because he haven't said a word since I brought up the topic. Was he angry? His eyes wasn't dark, surprising enough they were calm and his usual cold glance. Did the bathhouse really happen?

"Not at all Mother... Sylvia should have her space"

Okay I didn't expect that, but what was I thinking? That he would say no? Of course not Sylvia this man was not ATTRACTED to you!

"Hmm I suppose" Mother said.

I gave a sigh of relief so my plan worked, easily. I took a glass of water slurping it.

"Sylvia dear are you with child yet?"

I instantly choked on my water.

"Mother it has only been a month" I said with flushed looks, I peek at Cedric and then I saw a side smirk flash his lips, did I hallucinate that?

"Ha yes... forgive me, can't blame an eager mother wanting to hold her grand babies soon?"

I blushed hard this time, she said babies, was she hoping for a castle full of them? I wouldn't blame her though, anyone would want to raise a child other than Cedric.

I giggled at the thought.

"Anything the matter?"

"Not at all mother" I said in amusement.

"So when do I moved out of the chambers?" I asked eager to get this started.

"Well you ca-"

"Excuse me" Cedric said rising to his feet, we both turn to him.

"But Cedric my dear you haven't touched your food yet"

"I'm full" those were his words as he walked out.

Mother gave a heavy sigh.

"Sylvia are you sure its the right time for your Chamber, its just been a month"

"I assure you mother it is, we have spent wonderful times together... and its the tradition" I state, making sure I emphasize the word tradition.

"Yes... it is".

When I got to the hall I squealed in excitement and victory.

"You seem overjoyed my lady" Olivia said with a smile against her lips.

"Yes my dearest Olivia, finally I have my own chambers and I will no longer spend time with that man"

"Yes but, meals and bath will be shared together"

I instantly halt my steps, turning to her.

"Yes, true... but I will just have to find way to avoid that too" I said rubbing my chin.

"You look pretty determined my lady".

She must have caught my burning desire to stay clear of Cedric, I didn't tell her about Cora or her visions, i figured it's best I kept that to myself, there was still some things that needed understanding like how my husband bear the name, Magnus, a strange name with a meaning I didn't understand.

But that was for later, right now my new chamber's was my focus.

"So tell me Olivia where are my new chambers at?" I asked in excitement.

☆☆☆

"I thought it was a different wing!" I yelled.

"Not so loud my lady, it is unladylike to shout," Olivia said.

"I don't believe this, it's at the same wing as Cedric and his chambers are just across the hall... what's the point of having separate chambers," I said with a heavy sigh.

"My Lady you two just sleep differently, but still this wing still belongs to the both of you,"

How could I have missed that out? Here I was thinking I will avoid Cedric in just the bathhouse and eating hours and now the same halls? Ugh why was this happening to me, it was like I was cursed to be near him.

The guard opened the large door of my new chambers as we both stepped inside.

It wasn't as big as Cedric but it was big enough for me and majestic, but the room reminded me of Cedric's, the dark wallpaper and the lifeless color.

"I don't like the color"

"We can work on that for you my lady, just let me know what you need and I will get it done before night hours"

I made a thoughtful sound walking around the wide room.

"The wall should have more colors and the furniture's too"

"We will get it done but only the household color is allowed"

I wouldn't mind if it was yellow, as long as it didn't look like Cedric's.

I gave a nod of approval.
