Chapter 274: The letter with trouble.
Sigrid increased her steps after leaving the hall, moving so fast that the heels of her shoes were singing a
uniform song with the marble floor. Her need for speed left her ladies-in-waiting puzzled.
Christie wanted to ask why Sigrid was in a rush but Mauve stopped her and advised calmly. "This is one of those
times when you wait until she speaks."
Sigrid entered the nearest solar, on the ground floor and snatched a letter out of Brolin’s hands. She ripped it
open and read.
[My dearest Sigrid
Or should I call you crown princess now? How have you been? Are you doing well in the capital? | know that life
as the wife of the temperamental prince must not be easy for you.
Sometimes | wonder if you missat all. Sometimes | wonder if | should ride back to Eldoria and steal you
away. It has been two years and eight months now since | last saw you and yet | have not forgotten you.
Your face hauntsin my sleep. My heart defiles the distance, racing back to your side with every beat. The
road to the empire of Anquiri was long and harsh but it was not comparable to the pain of your absence from my
side.
| hate the class system system that separated us. Our love would have lasted had you not been a noble and | a
commoner--an ordinary knight. | often imagine what our life would be like if you had run away withas |
suggested. How many children would we have by now? Would I still be a knight and you a nurse?
Have you missedat all? Do you still have any memories of the days were spent foraging for herbs in the
mountains on the Eastern boarder? Have you forgotten me?
Perhaps you have but | have not. | see your face in every place | look. | have met many women from three lands
now and | have searched for a beauty that might rival yours--but none exists. The sun, however golden dulls in
your presence.
The moon, though luminous, pales in the terraces of your hair. The wind whispers, yet no song compares to the
melody of your voice. | long for the days | sat with you beneath the stars and you talked about your dreams and |
mine.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt| long for you Sigrid..I love you. Should the day ever cthat you wish to escape your marriage. Ctoin
Anquiri and | will spend the rest of my life worshiping you and loving you as it should be.
Until that day, my heart is yours to keep.
Forever your devoted knight, Sir Jenson Kershaw. ]
Sigrid exhaled, trembling, she found a chair and sat down. "System, cout and explain this."
The letter fell from her hands and Mauve quickly picked it up. It was her duty to lighten the troubles of her crown
princess and said crown princess looked worried.
"Burn it....burn it now." Sigrid ordered Mauve rashly.
Lady Iryne entered the solar just when Mauve was about to summon magic and set the letter on fire. "Burn what
dear?" she asked.
"Nothing." Sigrid quickly answered.
"Yes, nothing." Mauve answered nervously. She had not seen much of the content but she had seen sof the
first lines and the bottom ones, including the nof the sender.
"Is that a letter?" Lady Iryne asked. Her hands were very fast as she swiped it from Mauve. "Unbelievable, you
won't respond to my letters but you respond to other..." Her words broke off and her eyes widened. "Have you
lost your senses? Please do not tellthat you have been in contact with another man." she snapped at Sigrid.
Sigrid marched to her mother, took back the letter and set it on fire using magic. If she had done so in the first
place rather than handing it to Mauve to set it on fire her mother would not be hissing like a snake.
"You are the crown princess Sigrid, do you know this?" Lady Iryne took Sigrid by the shoulders and asked in voice
that held desperation and sanger. "That knight...."
"Mother, you need to calm down." Sigrid urged her. "I have nothing to do with this. | don’t even know why the
letter was sent in the first place or who delivered it." She looked at Brolin demanding with her eyes for an
answer.
"Well...out with it." Lady Iryne urged him. "And he or she better be dead by now before this kind of nonsense
reaches the wrong ears and creates trouble for my daughter."
Sigrid was also worried about that very trouble. her mother was thinking of. If a letter like this fell in Emmah’s
hands, it would probably reach the Tv station or newspapers quickly. No...that probably would not work. It would
be published on Mitter.
Brolin had no idea who had sent the letter but he knew who had delivered it. "It was delivered by Sir Sanders. He
is one of he young red knights that was assigned to the crown princess after the attempted assassination of the
king."
"Find him and question him about how the letter cinto his possession. Get rid of everyone that so much as
glimpsed at the letter." Lady Iryne ordered him.
Brolin looked at Sigrid. He wanted to hear what her instructions were. In truth, he liked Sir Sanders, the young
man was about to wed his cousin. If he was killed for seeing something he should not have seen...his cousin
would be heartbroken.
Sigrid had yet to respond and Christie
