Chapter 282 - Departure (2/2)
”Remember to always stay beside me.” Regaleon said to me. ”I won't let any danger befall you in this voyage.”
I giggled lightly, knowing how overprotective Regaleon was but I nodded in agreement no less.
”I will be clinging by your side until you become sick of me.” I joked.
”You know I won't get sick of you.” Regaleon smiled and kissed my forehead.
I would like to tell Regaleon that I can take care of myself and he does not need to be overprotective towards me. But a part of me wants to be spoiled by this side of him. I felt a sense of satisfaction with his actions.
Regaleon led me to my horse which I named Wind. She was a white stallion that we bought just a few days ago from the village. When I first rode her, we bonded immediately. She was as fast as the wind, hence the name.
William and Tricia saw us coming and bowed their heads in our presence.
”Your majesties, King Regaleon and Queen Alicia.” Both replied in unison.
”At ease.” Regaleon replied. ”Come my wife.”
Regaleon helped me up Wind. I was carefully saddled on her.
”William and Tricia will ride behind us.” Regaleon ordered. ”William, would like you to stay close if ever there are dangers.”
”Of course, your majesty.” William replied.
”Remember what I said, okay?” Regaleon asked me.
”Yes, my husband.” I smiled to my overprotective husband. ”I will be by your side, always.”
Regaleon replied to my words with a smile. He then went to his own horse Midnight after seeing that I am saddles up my own horse wind.
Regaleon took the lead and I followed him closely. We passed by his men waiting for us.
”We will now depart.” Regaleon said with a voice filled with pride of a leader. ”We will go as planned. Remember, whatever dangers we encounter and challenges we will face, I expect all of you to come out triumphant and alive. No one will be left behind!” His words were heavy, but it shows that he is both a strict and compassionate leader.
”YES!” The men replied to the king's words full of vigor.
I myself, was moved with my husband's words. My heart was thumping hard, feeling the intensity of Regaleon's words.
'I married such a charismatic person.' I thought, full of pride with my husband.
Regaleon was a natural born leader. He has the loyalty and respect of his subordinates. I am excited to see what the future holds after this war ends and when the empire will soon be established.
Regaleon as the first emperor of this continent and I as his wife. I am sure to play my role as empress well and help him in reigning this empire.
