[Bonus chapter]Unperturbed Trust

Once in the room, the Queen's expression showed a slight change. She looked confused but never said a word.  She dropped her man on the bed before walking into their shared royal bath area.

Unlike the other rooms, they had a sauna within the same area. She ensured that the water was warm enough before helping him up again.

Marian tried to read her but felt more anxious by the second. He let her undress her and walked with her until she was washing him in the water. 

Juweyriya didn't remove her clothes. For the first time, she went into the huge bath area with her clothes on. Her gaze avoided his and her lips never opened to say a word.

He could no longer take it. Despite how weak he felt, her silence was killing him. The first drop of tear escaped his eyes. It was the first time he cried out of pain.

Before this day, he had been sad. He knew worry and anger but never the type of pain. He was in pain because he caused her pain.
