After placing the dinners on the table, the Royal Mother went inside the room and found the Emperor Lady sitting on the bed with a cold, stern face..
" Mother, did you meet Sam??, " the Royal Mother asked nervously..
" Mmm. ", Emperor Lady hummed coldly.
Royal Mother was a bit nervous because of her cold attitude..
Furthermore she was nervous for Elsa..
What if the Emperor Lady doesn't like her and shows any wrong attitude??
From the day the Royal Mother came to their family, her mother-in-law was always cheerful to all of them..
Since the day, her father-in-law made the mistake, she had to sacrifice her own son That means Sam's father..
First her husband died next her only one beloved son died horribly..
And after that she doesn't know what will happen to her grandchildren..
Because of the guilt caused by her husband, the pain she got from her son's death, all of this made her cold in behavior..
She even left the castle to find the peace she was craving for!!
After Sam took the throne, she got the title of the "Emperor Lady " which means the most respected lady in the whole clan for being the grandmother of the Lord.
Still she didn't come back..!!
A few days ago, when she remembered that Sam's 600th birthday was coming, she couldn't hold it anymore and sent the letter to take her back..
The Royal Mother sighed and sat beside her,
" Mother, you will like Elsa.. Don't worry..
She is a lovely child. "
The Emperor Lady looked back at her face and replied in a cold voice,
" You still didn't tell me why you married my grandson to a human girl..
You know everything??
Don't you??
Why do you have to ruin her fate when it's destined to be a widow soon?? "
The Royal Mother choked with pain in her words,
" Mother.. Trust me, please..
I didn't want to stress you.. You have already spent half of your life in pain and guilt..
Trust my judgment mother.. Please??"
The Emperor Lady shook her head and choked on her words,
" I wish, I wish that day your father-in-law didn't try to step in SAVASH VALLEY and bring that curse over our ancestors..
Now I am watching them die in front of me one by one and I can't do anything..
We have already lost three people in our family..
How long do we have to sacrifice??
How long?? "
The Royal Mother shouted,
" Stop it.. Stop it.. Mother..
Don't say anything!!
I know, I know all..
But I can't lose my child, just can't..
I already lost Selena.. Now Sam is the only hope of our clan..
I know, I am being selfish.. But I really can't loose Sam even if I have to sacrifice Elsa.. "
The Emperor Lady's eyes widened in shock and asked for a muttering,
" What.. What do you mean by that?? "
The Royal Mother closed her eyes and tried to catch her breathing,
" Mother.. Let's not talk about this please.. We are already at their house..
I don't want them to hear anything.. "
The Emperor Lady replied, " Alright.. But you can't hide from them forever.. "
Royal Mother : " I know.. I know.. I will tell Elsa when the right time comes.. "
Emperor Lady: " There are only 15 days left before Sam's 600th birthday.. Remember that.. "
Royal Mother nodded and looked away absentmindedly..
Why do I have to lose everything again!!
Inside Elsa's room,
After freshening up, she put on a normal outfit, a white colored gown to look more gentle..
She didn't know what grandma likes so she tried her best to look elegant..
Standing in front of the dresser, she was watching the outfit as Sam pushed the door open..
Elsa turned back to him, asked smiling,
" Hubby, how am I looking??
Is it beautiful or eye-catching?? "
Sam smiled, walked over to her and turned her back towards the dresser..
He placed his chin over her shoulder and spoke proudly,
" My wife always looks beautiful.. "
Then he took a peck on her cheek and asked with his charming voice,
" Let's go.. Grandma is waiting for us.. "
Elsa nodded and headed towards downstairs holding his hand.
