Chapter 298: Activities in Bed

As Rosalind stepped into the greenhouse that was owned by the Blessed Families, she could not help but marvel at the sweet smell of flowers around her.

"This way please," one of the maids said. Apparently, the Blessed Families owned a mansion in every kingdom of the North.

This was intended so that they could use it anytime they wanted to fight in the North.

The mansion was located not far away from the palace and the walls. Apparently, it had been years since this place had been occupied by a member of the Blessed Family.

Rosalind looked around and could not help but appreciate the warm and humid atmosphere. Her eyes found the center of the garden where was a beautifully crafted wooden table, surrounded by wooden chairs that had been upholstered in velvet. The table was set with elegant silverware, crystal glasses, and a colorful array of dishes.

Surrounding the table were lush flower beds overflowing with vibrant blooms of flowers that she had never seen before.

The sound of a fountain could be heard in the distance, adding to the current tranquil atmosphere inside the greenhouse.

"There she is." Ena Thun attracted her attention. She was wearing an elegant red gown, her dark blue hair was braided making her look like a young princess. Her exotic beauty even made the place brighter. "What a beautiful little lady."

Rosalind stopped a few feet away from Ena. Then she curtsied at the Blessed woman.

"This lowly one has been waiting to meet someone like you all her life," Rosalind spoke, her voice shaking. "This lowly one is so grateful to have met you once before she succumbed to her death."

The smile on Ena's face cracked but she quickly recovered. Clearly, the woman did not expect this to happen.

"What a polite woman. Come let me take a good look at you."

Contrary to Ena's blood-red dress, Rosalind was wearing a pastel blue dress that looked rather boring. She did not wear any extravagant jewelry or any headpiece. She looked too simple for someone about to marry a Duke.

She took a step towards Ena, her steps small and careful. On the outside, it looked like she was nervous and scared to approach the woman.

"My I did not expect the Duke to marry such a sweet woman." Ena was smiling. "Please take a seat."

Again, Rosalind bowed before she took her seat across from Ena. She expected Mr. Gliss to accompany Ena today, but the man was nowhere to be found.

"I heard that you liked the tea of the North so I specifically asked someone to get some fresh leaves so we could use them for today's tea. Please pour her some tea."

"Thank you, Your Blessedness."

"You look so red, are you alright?"

"I am. It's just that this is such an overwhelming experience. I never thought that I would be given a chance to meet you. Now here I am enjoying tea with you. I just" Rosalind lowered her head and let a tear fall on her cheek. "I apologize, the emotion was too overwhelming. My heart is racing against my chest, I just cannot "

"Calm down" Ena said. "Please have some tea."

"Thank you," Rosalind did not refuse the tea. Instead, she downed it in one go. "May I have more?" she asked the servant with them.

"Give her more."

"Yes, Your Blessedness."

"Thank you," Rosalind politely said as she used her handkerchief to tap her cheeks, emphasizing the tears that fell from her eyes. "I apologize for my outbursts."

"No Not at all. Your reaction is simply natural for someone who had worshiped the Goddess and the Blessed Family for years."

Rosalind nodded as if her life depended on it. "I kneeled and prayed every day for the Goddess to bless me with a good life and for her to punish those who killed my parents. I cried and chanted and spend most of my days in temples when I was younger."

"Is Is that so?"

"Yes, Your Blessedness." Rosalind blinked, her eyes sparkled with joy and contentment. "Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity to meet you."

"Well when I heard that the Duke is about to marry someone, I was immediately curious and so, I invited you to meet the woman that made the Duke's heart beat faster. The woman he is about to marry."

Rosalind quickly faked a blush. She batted her eyes like a lovestruck woman her age.

"His Grace saved me. He is the kindest man that I know. Aside from this, he is the most handsome man that I have met in my life. The fact that he would even look at me was something that was made by the Goddess, Herself. This was a blessing!"

"Eh?"

"It was the Goddess who arranged everything. This was all thanks to her."

"Right of course. This was fate. Something that the Goddess had seen. I am glad that you are looking at things that way."

"Of course. Many people thought that he would hurt me, but how could he hurt someone who had been praying to the Goddess for a good life? His Grace is the most beautiful gift that the Goddess has given me. He was the missing puzzle piece that's finally fallen into place in my life."

"O of course. I am certain that you are perfect for each other," Ena gave an awkward smile.

"No, Your Blessedness, this is more than that. It feels as if as if the Goddess, Herself, hand picked him for me." Rosalind beamed. Seeing the uncomfortable expression on Ena's face made her want to laugh.

"Well, that is certainly something. Although I heard different rumors when I was on my way here. They said that the Duke only wanted to marry you because of something that you have? An ability, as they say."

Rosalind's eyes widened. She then leaned closer and whispered. "You mean the one under the sheets?" she batted her eyelid as frustration flashed in Ena's eyes. "How could someone spread a rumor about our activities in bed?" Rosalind asked.
