Chapter 43: Chapter 43

Samara's POV

"E-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 gorge 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 has 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 blinked. What exactly do I expect in 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 you two," 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 as 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!" Dwight's father's voice rang out like a thunder

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 Princess Christine story,” 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 nothing 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,"
