Chapter 46

Samara's POV
"You're making me blush," I joked to her
He laughed out loud and squeezed my cheek. I widened her eyes.
"It'll be nice if you do. I want to see how your cheeks will go red," he says laughing
"Then, I'll be the prettiest woman you'll see," I wiggle my brows earning a laughed at him
"Nope. You are gorgeous my lady. So perfect. Now. Why don't you rest for awhile. Youre wounds are still healing up,"
I obeyed and then went to bed. He did the same so I squeezed his chest. I can smell his manly scent that makes my inner body heat. I just smiled.
"Just stick with me all the time Dwight. I want to cuddle with you every moment," I hugged one of my arms to his side.
"My fiancè is being clingly. Why I haven't noticed it before?" He says laughing
I smiled like crazy when he called me. It's nice to feel him call me that now that we both love each other. I could finally show my affection to him without restraining myself.
"I loved you Dwight," I whispered affectionately
He gave me a kiss in my forehead before answering back, "I love and will love you more my lady blue. Sleepwell," he whispered.
I frowned, "As far as I know I'm waiting for food. I'm hungry," I complained.
I'd never imagine myself being these clingly and childish. Who would have thought that I could fall in love like this. Maybe I inherit this behavior from my father as well. Like Tita Liana's story to me.
"Fine. I'll feed you up,"
We remained in that position with a knock on the door. Dwight helped me to sit then let Lady Son in holding a tray of food. Behind him was General William who politely bowed to us.
"Prince Dwight ...," General William said
"How's everything?" Dwight asked as he teased me
I just quietly watched them as they talked. Dwight really acts like a real King already. He deserved to have the throne so I will marry him. And at least, I can at least get back at him that way. I wouldn't mind marrying him since I loved him so much.
"Get well soon, Queen Samara. The Ihmapuleya was waiting for you," He gave me a smile which I also returned.
"I will. Soon," was my short reply
He bowed slightly before leaving with Lady Son so Luhence and I were left in the room. He was feeding me up happily. When I finished eating, I drank some water and carefully leaned on the headboard. I have a pillow behind me so my wound doesn't hit the hard headboard.
"My mother was asking about you lately. She never had the chance to talk with you in your coronation night. Màma was your mother's bestfriend and it really make her happy to see you. I hope I could bring you to my home," kwento niya
I just watched him as he put the plate next to the glass on the sidetable before lying down next to me. I automatically rest my head on his shoulder.
"Too — I was thinking a lot that day and when I saw it. I was even more lost in judgment. I don't know what to do. Especially when they said I would marry you," I laughed "I was shocked but the first to enter I think it's your safety. So I said I can't marry you. I forget that you are the crown prince of Filifia. You're better than me. Stronger. So it's nonsense that I think that Costomo can hurt you so easily. And I only realized all that because of Zairo. I'm thankful to him. Without him, making me realized my stupid decisions. Maybe until now I won't admit that I love you either. Maybe until now I'm still hurting you, "
"It's okay my lady," he whispered soothingly in my ears before placing a soft kiss in my head
"I'm so thankful to you. You take care of the palace while I'm wounded. You put Costomo behindbars that easy. Even if you say I deserved the gratitude of the people. I knew better my prince. You deserve half of those cheers and people's thanks. Now that one of the termites of the palace has been removed. I promised to marry and love you Dwight, "I kissed his lips before continuing to speak" Just like how you did despite pushing you away, "
He hugged me carefully and then kissed me hard on the lips. I smiled as I leaned my cheek on his shoulder.
"You're making me cry my lady," he said laughing
I slapped his arm lightly and then moved away a little, "My speech is so beautiful and then you'll just laugh," I pretended to stare at him.
"Common my lady. I appreciate everything you've said but will you please call me my prince again?" He wiggle his brows playfully
He's acting like a child and it was adorable so I gave up and then he laughed.
"My prince — Maybe a lot of you called early?" I acted thinking
He laughed softly then he gathered me in his arms. He tenderly caressed my wound with a padin bandage.
"I've never dated anyone my lady blue," he replied seriously
My lips parted and I stared at him in disbelief. He hasn't dated a woman yet?
"Did I hear it right?"
"Yes so stop being jealous. I'd never had the chance to date anyone before. All my life, my father told me to stay away from women because I have to marry the princess of Ihmapuleya. Before Princess Christine, I was supposed to marry you but the chance of finding you was beginning to fade. Believe me, please, my lady. I don't love her o even like. She's like a sister and I'd never dated any girl even once before I met you, "
I can't believe this. In today"s era. No man has ever encountered a woman intimately or dated. Yes. He was a prince but it won't trouble him just sleeping with some other girl. Not that I want him to do that. I'm just shocked. Even then. Dwight has been loyal to me even though there is no guarantee that I will be found.
A smile slowly forms in my face. It was shocking but all I knew was. I could never found a man like him again.
"You're giving me so many reasons not to leave you Dwight," I said softly
"It's just reasons my lady," he whisper "With or without reasons. If you love me. You will stay unknowingly,"
"I'm indeed in love with you," I whispered in a final tone
"Yes and I believed you do,"

Who's really the man before he got blinded?
Will she be able to handle the man he'd save from the fall?
***
He smiled at the young man who had no reaction and then went to the door. He just sighed. He turned the doorknob and was about to leave when he spoke again. His voice made her heart drums faster without a valid reason just because of a simple question.
"What's your name?" This question is light
She gulped, "M-madelane ... Angel Madelane Anderson,"
"Angel ...... Angel it is,"

Samara's POV
I stared at the large scar on my back that completely healed after a few months. My patience in this room is over and I can go back to my work.
Dwight makes my responsibilities even easier because of his expulsion of Costomo. A country's economy was growing fast because of what I implemented the last time we gathered before the accident. The security of the country was further improved even though I was in that room recovering. Those illegal traders were evicted and the structures they built to build houses were demolished, then I ordered all the families who had left to return to live there for free.
Everything was falling into places and my families were very proud of me. Everything is getting back to normal and there's just one thing I haven't accomplished yet.
And that was marrying my Dwight
I smiled then immersed my body in the large bathtub in my bathroom. After a few minutes of soaking, I also went upstairs and put on my clothes. When I put my inner. I went out to fix it. I chose to wear a medieval dress with a red hood. I plan to go out of the palace for a tour.
I was walking down the hallway when I saw Dwight. He plastered his beautiful smile then he wave. I gave him a sweet smile then approached him. When I neared him, he kissed me in my forehead before putting his hand in my back, and gently caressed where my wound was covered with clothing.
"Are you okay?" There was concern in her voice
I nodded to him then hugged his side. My arms are around his waist. I heard the giggles of the women behind me which Lady Son immediately disobeyed. I just laughed.
"I would have liked to walk around the outside of the palace. It's been a long time since I saw the outside. I also want to know what else I should do to fix Ihmapuleya," I said.
He smiled at and nodded, "It's a great idea but I'm not sure if it's safe for you to go out. You're just fine," Dwight
"We had the guards and you. I know you won't let me down," he said with a wide smile
"A very sweet manipulation, my Queen Blue," he laughed
I frowned when he called me, "Queen Blue? Why do you call me blue again?" I asked him
"It's because your eyes were bright like skies and oceans, and I like nature. That's why I called you blue and now that you're a Queen, I will call you Queen blue. But because you are mine. I call you my queen blue, "
"I won't forget why, this time," I shook my head as I laughed
He took my hand and we left the palace together. Every servant or soldier we meet greets me after bowing as a sign of their respect. Two horses were released by our caretaker. I rode the white horse then put the hood on my head. Several soldiers also followed us and to my right was General William who would ensure my safety.
"Where's Zairo?" I asked General William
But even before he could answer, I heard Zairo's voice in the distance. He was riding a brown horse. I smiled at him. She stood behind Dwight with a miserly smile on her lips. They look fine. Soon the gate opened and we went out together led by me and my fiancè, Dwight.
I felt so much excitement. It had been a long time since I had seen the outside except when I went to the fort of my enemies every night. I wanted to see my former university and home especially Dwight"s house where there were the falls that first brought me to him.
When we reached the road. Human eyes immediately focused on us. Soldiers quickly surrounded me. The horse rides in the front and some in the rear. A warm smile plastered in my face. This is ....
This is what I wanted. To have a peaceful community where everyone is united, has respect for each other, and loves each other. They sighed as I removed the hood and smiled at them. I hear pure greetings every time we pass by and I only respond with a smile. It heals a wound better than lying there.
"They loved you my Queen blue," Dwight held my hand
"I know they're the same with you," I tightened my hand on his grip then put it back on the horse's leash.
Some time we also wandered around with a voice rang around. I didn't immediately see who it was because five soldiers grabbed him and tried to pull him away. I wanted to stop them but I was shocked when I heard that voice.
"I need to talk to the Queen! —No! You don't understand — N-no! Your highness! Please just a few questions! I'm begging you,"
I barely stared at his face at an angle that he couldn"t see me. My suspicion is correct. Cassandra was in front of me now with Tiffany frowning at the soldier pulling on them.
The woman insulted me when I had no power. It's weird to hear her begging when I grew up seeing her being a bossy. I raised my hand and stopped my soldier. I saw his triumphant smile.
Does he know who I am?
"What do you want Cassandra?" I asked in a firm voice
I felt Dwight's gaze on me wondering. Cassandra, on the other hand, was stunned by her position. I heard Dwight scold me as I got off the horse but I looked at him then smiled.
"I'm fine," I mouthed
I turned around then stopped in front of him. He bowed slightly before speaking.
"Y-you knew me? H-how come—"
"Of course I knew you Cassandra," I removed the hood from my head and she sighed when she saw me, "Maybe you already know how I met you today?"
I gave him a smile that was unhappy. Still manly and gaping while staring at me. The one with him in the back was like a stump.
"N-No! You are not the queen! This is impossi—" he stopped shouting when a soldier's sword approached him.
"You're disgracing the Queen in public. You can be sentenced to death if the Queen says so," my soldier threatened.
I secretly smiled. He did trained them well. I grabbed his arm and lowered it. Cassandra took a deep breath.
"She can say everything she wants because she is my citizen. She was just shocked that's why she said those words. I understand but when she becomes a threat to the kingdom and her fellow citizens. I can be the most irrational Queen when it comes to decision-making and believe me. I'll sentence her to death by rope, right away, "I got back on the horse and Dwight helped me with one of his hands so I could climb right away." Leave her alone. I still have a lot to tour, " utos ko
That soldier followed and drove him off the road so we could continue again. He was still there. I didn"t even bother to put the hood back on my head. There's no sense hiding my face anyways because I knew the majority knew me.
I stopped walking when we reached the sea. This is the end, "I want you to fix the collapsed walls that are a sign of our territory. If it can't be fixed right away. Someone can enter us without knowing it," I ordered.
"Your Majesty will follow," General William
I nodded then turned to Dwight, "I wish I could go back home especially where I saw you. Are you okay?" I will ask
"My Queen, you are welcome to my house anytime you want. If you wanted to go there. Then let's go," he kissed the back of my palm which warmed my cheek.
"Okay—"
"Dear queen !!"
We turned to see the man on horseback rushing toward us. It seems to have a message that is important to say. He stopped in front of us and bowed slightly.
"The King and Queen of the Philippines are telling you that he wants to see the prince and the queen of Ihmapuleya now that you are well," he said, still panting.
Dwight frowned, "Why did Papa call us?"
"They want to talk about marriage and you sitting on the throne,"

Samara's POV
"K-wedding?" I repeat
The messenger nodded, "That's how it is, dear queen. They want Prince Dwight to sit on the throne and that will only happen if the wedding takes place,"
"Then .... we're going to Filifia for the wedding," I smiled
I felt Dwight staring at me so I turned to him, "Are you sure? You want to marry me?" Dwight
"I was supposed to marry you before I was even born and I love you so why should I hesitate? And your inheritance depends on our wedding. If marrying you will bring you the crown, then I'll marry you. I know you will be a good king , "
He tightened his grip on my hand, "Let's get married then. I also can't afford you to go to someone else," he said softly and I smiled.
***
Since I was going to Filifia, I left General William to guard the palace and Zairo with me. It would be better to leave him here because I will be more reassured when I know someone will watch over my family while I am not in the palace. I don't want what happened then to happen again.
"VYYYYY!"
The helpers were distracted by the force of Ly's call to me from outside. He just shook me and opened the door himself.
"I want to comeeeee !! I'm going to die of boring here!" He complained
I just sighed. I also felt sorry for Lily once. He was always in his room because he had nothing else to do but lie down because I forbade him to use social media, which aunt liana agreed. Too dangerous. Should the news be in the palace just spin not in the whole ihmapuleya and world.
"Okay. Get your things ready. Hihin—"
"I'm ready naaa!" He replied excitedly
I just scratched my head and then left the palace to board the car that we will use to go to Filifia. Dwight opened the door for me and then turned to enter.
My attention was immediately focused on Nash who was staring intently in the side mirror. I also looked over there, and saw Lily excitedly running toward a car.
"She's coming with us," I whispered to her
"Y-yah. I mean. That was nice," Nash
***
The vehicle stopped in front of the Filifia gate where two high towers stood on either side of their gate. In front of it are two stairs up and in the middle of it is a large fountain. It was so green and beautiful. When I got out of the car, I immediately felt Dwight's warm hand.
"I'll show you my home my Queen," he whispered
I nodded excitedly then walked up the engraved stairs to enter the gate. I was hoping to see the palace soon but I didn"t. My jaw dropped in amusement when I saw a long bridge connecting to another gate where the palace were probably located. I did not expect that the new palace of Filifia would connect to the other mountain.
We used a horse to get there. Dwight helped me climb before he got on his own horse. On horseback, we saw how deep the ravine we were crossing with the bridge was. Hair-raising.
"We intentionally positioned the palace near the gorge and made two gates for security," I heard Dwight say.
"Security?" I will ask
"Yes my Queen," he smiled "Each gates we had here were composed of metal that will take several years to destroy. Even grenades, bazookas or any explosive materials have no effect. So we made two gates because they were new to us. go inside. They'll be surely dead in the first gate. And this bridge? It was a hightech bridge that can fold by itself if the first gate were destroyed. You see, it looks like a cement but it was made of metal "We make sure it will look like a bridge made of cement and stone so no one will suspect that it was a metal," Dwight
I was blinking. What exactly do I expect from the successful palace that Dwight grew up in? I heard that their castle was the most guarded and dangerous area. They just don"t know what Filifia"s hidden weapon is because they become very quiet about it. That further strengthened their security.
The gate opened and the front of the palace was exposed to us. They seemed to know we were coming because they lined up in two lines and slightly bowed to us. I smiled.
"I felt loved," I whispered
We got off the horse and walked inside the palace. Dwight held my hand inward. I quickly saw his father King Luhence and his mother Queen Vanessa. The lady's eyes lit up when she saw us holding hands.
"It was an honor to see you here Queen Samara," King Luhence
I just smiled and replied to Dwight's father, "I felt so relieved that you two get together easily! I don't think we will have a hard time reconciling the two of you," Queen Vanessa
I laughed a little, "I already knew your son before I became queen," I said.
Astonishment flashed across Dwight's mother's face, "W-what do you mean Queen Samara?" Her Father asked
"She's the reason why I haven't stayed in the palace before. I didn't know that the woman I loved then and was ready to fight for was the queen of Ihmapuleya that I should marry,"
My cheeks got hot but I didn't notice it. I just pinched Dwight on the side which he skipped.
"M-My Queen?" He asked wryly
"Do you really have to say that?" I whispered as my eyes widened
He scratched his head, "I'm sorry. I just want to be honest,"
I just shook my head and later laughed. Queen Vanessa had a small smile when she saw us. Dwight put his hand on my waist then he pulled me so that our bodies would be even closer. I just let him. We reached the dining area. I sat to the right next to Dwight while Nash remained standing behind Lily facing me then Zairo behind me.
"You don't want to eat?" I whispered to Zairo
He quickly shook his head, "I'm full milady,"
I looked at Dwight's father as he started to talk about things while Dwight's mother was very excited to suggest wedding ideas. I felt so happy. I have Dwight by my side now and my country was doing fine. We were in the middle of a conversation with a sudden announcement with a visitor from outside. King Luhence let it in but when I saw who it was. I stopped eating.
Dwight noticed how I stilled when I saw their visitor. He asked me but I was too focus at the lady in front with her big hamfree smile.
"Princess Christine! What a pleasant surprise!" Queen Vanessa
"Good evening Tita!"
It was like a child that Christine hugged Queen Vanessa. I knew right away that he was close to them. When he let go of the hug. He was also shocked when our eyes met. Her lips parted in shock and her eyes widens.
"W-what are you doing here?" He couldn't believe the question
King Luhence frowned at what he said, "Your words Princess Christine! You are close to us but I won't tolerate you for disgracing the Queen of Ihmapuleya by your ignorant question!" It was like thunder that Dwight's father's voice rumbled around
Christine quickly bowed to us, "I-I'm sorry King Luhence," she looked up at me "I-It's just that, .... You're the Queen ?!"
I took a deep breath before speaking, "Yes Princess. I am the Queen," I replied
"OH MY GOD!" Her eyes widened
She was the woman who came to me then claiming Dwight as her fiancè. She should have been Dwight's bride if I hadn't been found right away.
"T-Then why did I see you i-in that h-house—"
"It"s a very long story Princess Christine," Dwight
I sneezed to get everyone's attention, "I'm so exhausted from the long ride. I want to rest,"
"Of course, let the maids guide you to Dwight's room," King Luhence
I choked on my own saliva when he mentioned Dwight's room. My eyes widened at what he said.
"D-Don't you have any spare rooms?"
"There's plenty of unoccupied rooms here but I thought you should share room with my son. There's no wrong with that," Queen Vanessa
"Oh! I will love it more if you carry the heir as early as possible," the king said excitedly
I swallowed and smiled hard. The idea of ​​sharing a room with Dwight makes my skin, flames. It was as if the surroundings suddenly warmed up. I looked at Dwight as he spoke.
"We'll go now,"
To be continued....
