Chapter Fifty six
56
“What did the vampire king said about the gift you gave him.”
Queen Selene asked, they were in the front balcony knitting, Bella stopped knitting, she had almost forgotten about the doctor and her lies. What had transpired this morning was still affecting her.
“Nope, he hadn’t.”
Bella said, she was knitting a new cloth for her self.
“Why, the cardigan us beautiful, I do not see a reason why he shouldn’t have appreciate you for what you did.”
Queen Selene said.
“He never appreciated because he never knew I made the clothing for him.”
Bella said, she closed her eyes for a while, the vampire king had dragged her in this morning and instead forced her to say the truth in a perverted manner.
“What do you mean.”
The queen said, she looked confused at what she said.
“The doctor, she took the credit her self, she was quite smart to take the credit by informing the king she made the cardigan her self.”
Bella said, continuing knitting. She did not look bothered over what happened, she have grown up with people taking her good works to their own advantage and no one complained about it.
“Really, how dare Isabella become ao cheap to the extent of taking what belongs to you. She is so shameless. Did you informed the king about it, does he know the truth now, Isabella needs to know her place. She needs to be punished.”
Queen Selene said, now totalky focused on Bella.
“Nope he did not know, there Is no essence letting him know about it, what mattered is that he received a gift from me, he could hear from many people who disguised themselves to take the cr…….”
“Why didn’t you inform him about it, why keep mute.”
Queen Selene interrupted her, Bella stopped sewing, she breathed slightly for a while.
“I grew up with people taking what belonged to me forcefully. They took my good works to their own advantage. So it’s nothing.”
Bella said, nodding her head painfully as she stared at the queen. Quickly she went back to her work.
“Bella you need to know this. This pack and your former pack are two different packs, we respect everyone, we do not take what belongs to others, we do not accept bully, I do not know what your pack had previously done to you, but you gotta know this. This is your gift which you gave to your mate and you will not allow anyone take the credit. Got that, now when the king is less busy, you will walk to him and tell him that this gift belongs to you and not Isabella.”
Queen Selene said, staring at her.
Bella smiled at her, nodding her head happily, Indeed the vampire’s pack was different from the werewolf pack.
“Ok mother, I got you, but what happens next?”
Bella asked, the queen smiled down at her, waving her head slightly.
“She might be punished in a sweet way or bitter way.”
Queen said, continuing knitting.
Bella wondered what she meant by the bitter punishment and the sweet punishment.
“Mother…..”
Bella called, it was time she question the queen about the flower that she heard the vampires discussing about in the creepy hall, she do ask her In a stylish manner so as not to attract attention, the queen mother was the only one she could ask, not the king himself, the king might consider her questions to be suspicious..
“Yes you called.”
“Are there flowers in the castle, maybe beautiful flowers.”
Bella asked, watching as the queen stared at her for a while.
Bella breathed slightly, she hoped she did not sound suspicious.
“Yes there are alot of flowers. Roses, hibiscus, Aster, Azalea, Black-Eyed Susan, Buttercup, California Poppy, Chrysanthemum, Crocus, Daffodil and lots more.”
Queen Selene said, concentrating on her knitting.
“Wow that is a lot of flowers.”
Bella breathed out, staring at the vampire queen who winked down at her in a playful manner.
“I studied botany so am a botanist, that is why I have a vast knowledge when it comes to flowers and plants.”
Queen Selene said, smiling tenderly at her.
“Ok I understand.”
Bella said, the conversation wasn’t going as she had expected it to be.
“What do you plan on studying.”Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Queen Selene asked.
“I do not know, but I know I loved cooking, I always wished to attend a catering school, no matter how cheap it was, it was my dream, to be a popular caterer.”
Bella said, she looked down to the cloth she was knitting, she did not want the queen to see the look of pity in her face.
She was tired of being pitied.
“And did you, did you attend a catering school.”
Queen Selene asked, staring at her.
“No I wasn’t given the opportunity.”
Bella said, stroking the garments she made.
“Hahaha, Bella, I do not think the king will be happy with this.”
Queen Selene said, looking at Bella.
“What, what do you mean mother.”
Bella said, wondering what she meant.
“I meant that the king will not be happy seeing the soon to be queen serving the pack as a caterer, instead he could hire a caterer for you and make you order your new caterer assistant around while you sit on a big table leaving your assistant to do the job. You do not know how protective your mate is, do you.”
Queen Selene said, throwing her a wink.
Bella blushed at her words, there was a high probability that the queen was saying the truth, the vampire king was quite protective of her.
She felt her heart softened at this thought, a tiny smile escaping from her lips. Slowly her mind drifted to the vampire king, that dude Is definitely handsome, Bella shook her head lightly, removing the insane thoughts she was beginning to labor in her mind.
“Is there any other flowers in the mansion, seems I have seen the ones you called, am tired of staring at them and watering them.”
Bella said, she was not going to quit asking till she knew every information about the secret flower.
“I do no see a reason why you should be tired of seeing such beautiful flowers in the garden. They look so innocent and lovely.”
Queen Selene said, Bella watched as the queen continued knitting her garments quite seriously than before.
It seems as if the queen was not ready to discuss about any other flower, but she wasn’t going to give up.
“The flowers look quite go…….”
“There is another flower…”
Queen Selene said, this time focusing her full attention on her.
“I shouldn’t be telling you this, but there is another flower, it is securely guarded by the order of the king and exclusively taken care of. No one is allowed to see or touch this flower, not even me, the queen mother. The vampire king prohibits any one from coming to the flower. The flower was buried with the previous King’s ashes which is my beloved mate. The king is the only one allowed in there, it is a secret hall way and the flower used to bury my mate is a rare flower which cannot be found easily in the entire world.”
Queen Selene said, breathing slightly.
“So you aren’t allowed to visit the previous king’s remainings.”
Bella said, watching queen Selene nodded at her.
“Yes, is the penalty I have to pay. You will come to know the real truth later in the future.. Is best your mate tells you this secret part of him.”
Queen Selene said, now standing up.
“Let’s go shopping, it’s been quite long you went out, I don’t want you to be depressed staying in this boring castle all the time.”
Queen Selene said, her mood instantly changing immediately.
Bella smiled up at her, the queen was not the one to carry sadness for long.
“Yes let’s step out a little, I feel like am becoming depressed already, I need some fresh air.”
Bella said, quickly standing up, at least she had known what the hall was all about.
But again she wondered, If the hall is always guarded heavily, how did the vampires slipped into the overly guarded passage.
