Y/n POV

-

Anastasia's story was tragic, I then wiped her tears and smiled when she held my hand and placed it on her cheeks

God, she's gorgeous that it's blinding

"It's her birthday next week, wanna come with me? I come every year and I loved it if you come with me"

She chuckled and averted my gaze

"Of course, where are we going?"

I asked and she smiled softly and wrapped her arms around me. I like this, besides acting like a child she's really sweet

"It's in France, my daughters are also there. I don't know if they want to talk to me but I'll give it a try. I missed those three"

She looked determined while saying those words, eh whatever I'll just cheer her up and support her

"Sounds good, can I sleep again? My back hurts and I'm sore as fuck" I groaned and buried my face on the crook of her neck

"Of course, rest well gremlin" She mumbled and I closed my eyes at ease

I think we've become closer...

When I opened my eyes, no one was there. The side of the bed was cold and I didn't know why

Where did she go early in the morning?

I sat up as I covered my top with the blankets and looked around to see if she was there or not

"Y/n dear, Anastasia left because she had matters to attend" I jumped in surprise when someone spoke so suddenly behind me

It was Finea all along, I sighed in relief and smiled

"It looks like you two youngsters had fun" Finea chuckled and I covered my neck full of hickeys

"W-Well we did become quite intimate last night and she told me about her ex-wife"

I mumbled embarrassed and Finea looked rather shocked to hear my reply. I looked at her confused and she chuckled

"So Her Highness already told you, I'm glad she has a shoulder to cry on. Miss Le Blanche was a nice woman, she's gentle and sometimes funny"

She then paused and smiled sadly

"It's just that it was a shock that news arrived saying she's dead. I felt like I lost a daughter"

I hugged Finea and patted the old woman's back softly

"It's okay" I smiled and she pulled away and wiped the tears on the corner of her eyes

"And I think it's time for you to change"

I chuckled shyly and Finea gave me a robe so I can take a shower

I wonder what Anastasia's daughters look like, are they more like her ex-wife or more Anastasia?

God it's hard when both parents are gorgeous

When I finished taking a bath, I got out and I winced when I can still feel the soreness of my lower region

Anastasia didn't give me mercy last night, it was traumatizing for me

I'll definitely smack the shit out of her if she won't stop at round two or else more back pain for me
