Chapter 48: Leave his life soon
Alora fidgeted with her fingers as she awaited for the Queen to come.
"Why do you look scared?" Magnus asked, placing his hand above hers.
"What if the Queen Mother scolds me for being late?" She wanted to come to the palace as soon as she had gotten ready, but Magnus didn’t let her leave until she had her breakfast.
"Mother won’t do that," Magnus said while being confident. "She knows we are newlyweds," he murmured.
"That sounds like an excuse," Alora replied.
"How is it an excuse? We are newlyweds. We need time to explore more about each other," Magnus whispered in a teasing tone, his lips brushing her earlobe.
She pushed him away gently. "Please don’t start here. What if Queen Mother sees us?" Alora complained in a low voice.
"She isn’t around," Magnus remarked mischievously as he leaned in to kiss her, taking advantage of her blindfold.
"Your Highness!" Alora exclaimed, covering her mouth with her hand in mock indignation. She quickly moved away from him, even though her eyes were covered. Despite her blindfold, she could sense the smile playing on Magnus’s lips after teasing her.
