Ellena pressed her hands to her chest She feltstill considered her part of the people he cared about

"Of course" She said in a choked voice "I always rehted a candle to wish you all good things I thought this year you will not celebrate your birthday because"

She halted her words It had been such a tough year for Mars He lost his beloved mother and his wife, and he was always so busy with royal affairs, that Ellena assumed he would not even remember his birthday

"I know this year has been really tough," Mars adhten the mood and throw a celebration That's what my mother would do"
