Chapter 7

She still remembered that when the news came, the young prince led the charge into the palace, all those who came to stop him died under his sharp claws, he grabbed his uncle and bit off his head, blood splattered on his gloomy and ruthless face, giving the illusion that he was a demon who had risen from hell.
It was frightening.
In the following two years, the young king, who was only 18 years old, led the wolves to fight in the battlefield, successfully resisted the attack of the witch, and also eliminated several anti-wolf forces lurking in the wolves, becoming a king that all people willingly admired and obeyed.
That was all she knew, but it seemed that the rumors were not all true, what with the demons who had risen from hell, she really didn't see it at all.
Which demon would be so shameless, always rely on her not to say, and which demon will be every day just think about the bed that thing!
Sophia's back was sore from sitting, and she had nothing better to do than to put off her business today, so she simply wandered around the garden.
She came out wearing cool, now feel a little cold, so casually stopped a passing servant.
"Please bring me a cloak, I'll wait for you in the pavilion in front."
When the servant saw that it was her, he simply stepped back and gave a perfunctory salute, saying nonchalantly, "Sorry Queen, there are many things waiting for me to do in the palace, I really don't have time to serve you, please find someone else."
The tone of voice can be said to be quite negligent.
The maids who were laughing immediately left in a hurry, pretending that they all had important things to do, and none of them paid any attention to her.
Sophia was a bit confused, the servants who served her were very respectful to her, she really did not expect to be so neglected even in the palace.
''You're making people angry.'' Her wolf laughed.
Sophia sighed helplessly and had no choice but to go back on her own.
She tried to avoid it, but there was always someone who didn't want her to avoid it, and she was stopped back again before she even left the garden.
"See the Queen." The big maid bowed in a disciplined manner and blocked her way by the way, "You have been in the palace for so long, I have not had the time to pay my respects to you, today I just happened to meet you, do you have time for me to teach you some of the rules that a queen should know."
Sophia looked at her in wonder, but didn't say anything against it, and followed her into the garden pavilion.
The servants who passed by the gazebo heard the serious voice of the eldest maid in the gazebo.
"As a queen, you should know the proper etiquette, what kind of salute you should perform when you see the king, what kind of dignified posture you should have in front of people, and how to walk and sit should be regulated."
Sophia began to listen carefully, but later probably understood that she was talking nonsense, and began to doze off.
The big maid looked straight sneer, raise the tone of voice to shake from the doze: "Now please the queen takes this pillar as the king, practice salute."
Sophia covered her mouth, yawned implicitly, smiled gently, and gave a standard salute to the pillar, thinking it was impeccable, but the big maid was able to pick out little problems from the edges.
"Your legs are back in the wrong position, Your Majesty, please curtsy again."
Sophia good-naturedly did it again, and then practiced it four or five times before the big maid reluctantly said it passed.
As a result, after practicing the curtsy, the maid asked to practice walking again, and after a dozen trips back and forth and being picked on numerous times, Sophia wasn't going to put up with it anymore.
Does this maid really think she can't see that she is deliberately making things difficult for her? What are you kidding, she majored in psychology in college?
She saw it when she first started picking at it, but it was because she felt she had indeed done something wrong and wanted to study it seriously so she could make amends, not so she could deliberately make things difficult for her.
So she slowly returned to the gazebo and elegantly lifted the hem of her skirt and sat down.
"What does the queen mean by this?" The big maid's face was ironic.
"Can't you see?" Sophia looked at her strangely and smiled softly, "It's not obvious, I'm quitting!"
The big maid narrowed her eyes and threatened, "The queen had better do as I say, or I will tell the king that you, the queen, are behaving vulgarly and are not worthy of being the queen at all!"
"Fine." Sophia said with a smirk, "Then I'll thank you in advance."
"You don't know the etiquette, you refuse to receive the princes and nobles, and you are so rude, I will definitely report all of them to the king!" The big maid was so angry with her that she almost turned her back, and her angry voice drew up another degree.
"What do you want to tell me?"
A cold male voice came from behind, the big maid's body shivered, and Sophia's smile was withdrawn, looking at him nonchalantly.
Almost subconsciously, the eldest maid dropped to her knees, not daring to look up, weak-hearted and panicked.
"What's happening?" Aaron didn't even give a look to the big maid, sat down next to Sophia and gently held her hand.
"Your big maid said I behaved vulgarly and was not worthy to be your queen at all, made me repeat over and over what walking posture, bowing posture, told me to call you king respectfully and bow to you respectfully in the future, and not to overstep half a step." Sophia was not at all self-conscious that she was suing, and very honestly repeated to him what had just happened.
"No, Your Majesty, it's not like that!" The big maid flung herself at Aaron's feet in fear, her forehead almost resting on his shoe in reverence.
"Your Majesty, yes, it's the Queen who doesn't know the etiquette and offended the nobles and brought you so much trouble, I just want to remind the Queen and ask her to receive the nobles again, and didn't say anything so unknowing."
Aaron looked at her without a trace of emotion, his gaze was cool: "She is my queen, whether she learns the rules and manners, or whether she receives the nobles, it is the queen's freedom, no one can make my queen, do what she does not like to do, and you, a servant, are even less qualified."
"Take her down to receive her punishment, deprive her of her position as a great maid, and expel her from the palace." Aaron coldly handed down the punishment on her, and turned back to Nick, "From now on, I don't want to hear such remarks in the palace again."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Nick led the order and left.
Aaron's unjustified favoritism made Sophia a little touched, feeling that it was obvious that she had done something wrong, but he not only did not blame her, but also defended her in every way, and drove away for her the big maid who had served in the palace for an unknown number of years.
He was really good to him.
Aaron saw the softening in her eyes and his spirits lifted, thinking that he had finally pried open her heart, but he didn't know what she had thought of, and his eyes became dangerous again.
What did Sophia think of? Of course, she thought of how bad Aaron was in bed, and decided that her idea of him being nice was too dangerous, so she killed it.
Now even the wolf who had been in a high mood to help Aaron chase women went off, helplessly said in his consciousness: 'As expected of our MATE, it's really hard to chase.'
Aaron smiled in his consciousness, suddenly thought of the soulful taste on her body last night, a little heartwarming, couldn't help but rub Sophia's hand, also tickled in her hand.
Before he could make any other move, the alert Sophia had already recognized his thoughts and quickly withdrew her hand as if it was on fire.
"Your Majesty, I am sorry about today, I think you must be very busy, so I will leave you alone." She gave a perfunctory salute and hurriedly escaped.
Aaron watched her back with amusement, and with a turn of his head, the softness on his face closed up.
"Let those who serve the queen follow well, and anyone who disrespects the queen can be dealt with directly without telling me."
Sophia didn't know about this order of his, and only after she escaped back to her bedchamber did she feel that it wasn't good for her to run away like that, after all, he had helped her so much.
How should she thank him?
Sophia had a bit of a headache, but she didn't have to dwell on it for long, because the attentive servant gave her a suggestion.
"The Queen might as well cook a few good dishes herself, I think the King will be very happy."
"Good idea!"
Sophia clapped her hands and found it very feasible, changed into her easy clothes and dived into the kitchen.
She was not a princess who did not touch anything when she was in the Meta Moon pack, and she still had several good dishes that she could do well.
After working in the kitchen all day, a few simple but fragrant dishes were created. Sophia wiped the condiments from her face with satisfaction and put them on a large tray.
"Carry them to the king, you guys."
The servant took a few small dishes Nick, specifically mentioning that the queen had made them, and Nick went in with a knowing smile on his face, carrying the tray.
"Your Majesty, it's time for dinner."
Aaron buried his head in a mountain of documents, laboring for half a day, even though the meal smells good, there is really no appetite.
"I don't have an appetite, withdraw it."
"Do you really have no appetite?" Nick asked, holding back a laugh.
Aaron looked up impatiently, and his eyes clearly said the words "You are sick".
Nick turned around with the tray and said with great regret, "Since the king has no appetite, I'll have someone send it back to the queen, it's just a pity that the queen has been busy all day, but the king doesn't want to eat, how sad the queen must be."
After saying that, he also deliberately sighed.
"Wait!"
Sure enough, he was called back.
"Did the queen make this?" Aaron's eyes were glued to the tray, "I'm suddenly a bit hungry, bring it back."
......
I don't know if Sophia's hand-made meal at night was too delicious and appeased Aaron's heart, or he was too busy, in any case, until now, he didn't come back to the bedchamber, which made Sophia greatly relieved.
After freshening up, she lay on the big bed and rolled around comfortably, but she couldn't sleep, her mind, somehow, remembered what happened last night, and she buried herself into the quilt shyly at once.
"Go to sleep! What are you thinking about!"
She sulked and sulked at herself, and fell asleep in no time.
When Aaron returned late at night, she was already sleeping comfortably, and any more desires in his heart dissipated after seeing her serene sleeping face, gently holding her in his arms and soon falling into sleep.
When Sophia woke up in the morning, Aaron had already left, Sophia didn't know he had come back, and the servants wouldn't say much.
It was a rare day when she had nothing to do. Sophia sat by the window, trying to finish the book she hadn't finished reading two days before, but she didn't expect Susan, who had left the palace in the dust a few days before, to come to her again.
"Sister, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect to make such a mess, and brother Carl is also very remorseful, he must ask me to come and apologize properly to sister, and ask sister and the king to forgive our impulse." Susan held her hand, looking both remorseful and pitiful.
"It's okay, the king won't care about such trivial things, don't worry." Sophia said with relief, she really looked too worried, and she who always doted on Susan couldn't bear to see her like this.
Susan made an effort to raise some interest and proposed, "Sister, don't stay in your room all the time, Susan accompany you to go out for a walk, okay?"
