Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down

117 Your words are my words Gabriel had fallen asleep at some point, when he opened his eyes he saw the princess by the window, she was truly beautiful, when he had arrived at the palace she was a little girl, but with the passage of time she had become a true beauty, but her beauty did not lie only in her appearance, there was something about her that attracted people.

April turned around and said to him.

_Sir Gabriel, perhaps we should continue tomorrow, it will soon be time for dinner.

Gabriel stood up and answered.

_Of course, excuse me, I think I fell asleep.

_Don't worry, the same thing usually happens to me on summer evenings, you'd better go, your family must be waiting for you for dinner too.

Gabriel rarely left the palace early, so his wife never waited for him for dinner, he replied.

_I don't usually get home early, my wife doesn't wait for me to have dinner.

_All the more reason you should come back early, it's sad having to have dinner alone every day, even if your wife doesn't say it, I'm sure she must wait for you every day to have dinner.

_I can't leave without the king's permission.

_Don't worry, I'll take care of telling him.

_Then with your permission your majesty, see you tomorrow.

Gabriel left the library, in the hallway he met the king, he asked him.

_ Where is my wife? _She is in the library.

_I see.

_Your majesty, she told me I could go home.

_Then go, your words are mine.

Gabriel bowed and said to him.

_Thank you, your majesty.

_He comes back early tomorrow.

_Yes, your majesty.

Alessandro went to the library, Abril was still reading a book, he put his hand on her shoulder and said.

_ Why are you still studying? Gabriel has already left.

_I know, but I wanted to continue studying a little more, I told you I would try hard.

_You don't have to try so hard, just do what you can.

_By the way, I told Sir Gabriel he could go, are you upset? _No, you must have done it for a reason, right? _I just wanted him to have dinner with his wife, he insisted that it was okay, that she was already used to it, that she didn't expect him for dinner anymore, but when you don't come I feel alone, she must feel the same.

Alessandro kissed her and said.

_I'm sorry.

_ Why are you apologizing? _For always being busy and leaving you alone.

_I know you can't always be with me, you carry a kingdom on your shoulders, that's why I want to learn quickly to be your help and lighten your weight.

_You already do, just by having you by my side every night you help me.

_ As? _I don't know if I've told you before, but after the war I couldn't sleep, I only slept a few hours and when I did I woke up more tired than when I went to sleep because to nightmares, but since we slept together that is over, I sleep deeply and I no longer have nightmares, every morning when I wake up I am rested, you have been my help for a long time, you have lightened my load.

_ Really? _Yes Aby, being by your side makes me feel calm and at peace.

April smiled widely and said.

_Thank you for telling me, it makes me happy to know that I am of help to you.

Alessandro saw that the last rays of the sun were setting outside and asked him.

_ Have you been here all day? _Yes, why do you ask? _You want to take a walk in the garden before dinner? April's eyes lit up and she replied.

_Yes, I would love that, Alessandro took her hand and led her to the garden, while they walked hand in hand Abril told him.

_Summer is almost over.

_That's how it is.

_Lessan, Will the war be during the winter? _ What is the point of that question? _I was just wondering, you said the war would start soon so I was wondering if it would be during the cold winter.

_I don't know yet.

_I hope not, all the knights and soldiers would suffer greatly if it were winter.

_Actually it's the opposite, I think they prefer the war to start in winter instead of summer, they wear heavy armor to protect themselves during battle, during the summer the armor gets hot and wearing it is uncomfortable, but during winter there is no such problem, on the contrary they like to wear it since it makes them warmer, and also since it's winter the farmers don't have to worry about their crops since there is nothing in the fields, so I wouldn't have to worry about them getting caug

ht in the battle.

_I hope that the seals that have sealed my magic are broken soon too, so I can heal your wounds and those of the soldiers.

_That won't happen.

_ Why not? _I won't let you go to the battlefield, I would never allow it, if something were to happen to you there I wouldn't be able to continue living.

_I'll be fine.

April looked at her hand and said.

_And even if you don't like the idea, I will accompany you, because just like you, I could not continue living if I were to lose you, because for me you are my everything, so you will not be able to push me aside, I will stay with you no matter what comes our way.

Alessandro gave her a soft kiss on the lips and said.

_You are a fool.
