Saving The Abandoned Empress

Chapter 15: “Back To The Past”

Inside Eleanora’s Bedroom...

Alexander was trying to adjust the mana level of Eleanora’s body as whenever she fall sick, her mana level drops.

So at that time, someone with greater magic power have to transfer magic power into her body by making physical contact, like holding hands.

“Speak.”

Alexander asked in a icy tone as he felt his aid Raynor has returned after seeing off the doctor.

“From what i got to know was, the princess was looking for you when she saw some small cat and puppies there and she ran away as she is afraid of them.

And in the process of running away, she bumped into his highness, the crown prince and fall into the lake...together.”

.....

Alexander’s aid Raynor replied the last sentence with a lot of hesitation and courage.

“You sure that bastard didn’t did anything to her?”

Alexander asked with a killing intent look in his face.

‘D-Duke... He is the Crown Prince! How can you call him a bastard?’

“No, It was the crown prince who saved her.”

“It was him, who bumped into her thus she fall.”

“....”

Raynor was lip tied.

Alexander clenched his fist in anger as he was again a step late but it’s not to late. He will never let him approach her again!

That crown prince doesn’t deserve his daughter.

“Find out what that bastard likes and give him that as a both apology and thanking gift for saving her.”

Alexander paused for a moment before he spoke again,

“Don’t mention a word to her about him, saving her. Say it was a random stranger.”

“As you wish, Duke.”

Raynor replied and stepped out from the room quickly like he was actually escaping, closing the doors.

After coming out, Raynor heaved a sigh of relief. He felt that he was about to die because of his superiors cold aura.

His superior is always scary but today he was more scary...

In the room, Alexander was sitting beside the sleeping Eleanora and stroked his fingers through her silver hair.

He placed some fire mana stones around her so that her body warms up.

As she fall into the cold water and she is already very sensitive to cold, on top of that, she has cold icy mana flowing all over her body with her blood.

Most of the first born children, are born with strong and powerful magic powers.

So, most of the first borns are usually boy, because the girls fragile body can’t handle such strong mana and powers.

Specially the Imperial family and the Dalton duchy, who helds the most powerful magic powers.

Fire And Ice.

This was why there was seldom girls born into this two family.

Eleanora was the first born girl who was the direct blood heir into the Dalton duchy over the past hundred years.

This was also why, the priest got a prophecy about her being the first saintess, Ariande; who came down on earth to destroy the demons, who will lead the empire to it’s peck again.

They got the prophecy right after the prince birth, and no girl was born after that above the rank of marquis.

So everyone was sure that Eleanora is the girl in the prophecy.

Thus, her name was decided as Ariande, which meant ‘Most Holy’ and she was already seen as an empress, since her birth.

But Alexander didn’t kept her name Ariande... he didn’t wanted her daughter to live a life for someone else.

Alexander grits his teath as he recalled how that cold blooded crown prince was staring at her.

At that time, He was just staring at her like a boy who fall in love at first sight.

‘This is impossible... I won’t let that happen.’

“Raynor!!!”

Alexander called his aid, who was waiting behide the door and was stunned to here his superiors sudden call.

“Y-Yes, Duke?”

“Hire someone to protect Eleanora from now on. No boy should be seen around my daughter.”

“...”

Raynor was once again speechless because of his superiors words.

Cathain was staring at his daughter, who kept crying while hugging her father.

Alexander moved his body a little to block his view from Eleanora but he still didn’t went away like he did before.

This made Alexander furious. Why was that acting weird now?

Cathain stood up and continued to watch the crying Eleanora, who was clinging to her father.

To him, this girl was the potential perfect fiance of him, whom everyone praises non stop.

So he never imagined that this girl would actually cry like this while clinging to his father.

He has been watching her for quite a few days since her mother died.

She follows her father secrectly and doesn’t even knows how open her secretly sneaking is.

Cathain’s curious gaze was disturbing and very annoying.

So Alexander bid him farewell and left without listening to his any words.

Fortunately, Ele didn’t noticed him. No way he will let that arrogant bastard to come closer to his daughter in any way possible again.

Alexander is gonna rip apart every possible way for him to approach her.

‘As long as Ele doesn’t loves him, everything will go according my plan.’

‘I won’t let him come anywhere near you, Ele.’

Alexander kisses Ele’s forehead which was still hot because of her fever and looks at her sleeping face gently.

“Trust me, Ele. From now on, Daddy will keep you safe.”

Ele wasn’t fully asleep or awake. So she heard what her father just whispered to her.

‘I will keep you and our duchy safe too!’

But what they didn’t knew was, another person who was standing in an dark road, with a dagger that was still dropping fresh blood as it was pulled out from another person’s chest.

That person slowly approached another laying person on the ground and faint golden light glow out from that persons hands.

Immediately, the laying person started to breathe and was carried away by the mysterious person.

‘This time, I will protect you, my empress.’
