Chapter 85

RYKER’S PO.V

Camilla was getting on my last nerves.

Initially, she was angry with me and I understood that but I thought her anger would die down after twenty–four hours. I was right about that but I didn’t count on her giving me the silent treatment. She slept in the same bed with me but that was where it ended. She wouldn’t look at me and preferred to spend her time reading her father’s journals. Whenever I initiated the conversation, she would give me one worded answers or just outright ignore me. I understood why she was angry but it was beginning to grate on my nerves.

We were to have a meeting in the town square to inform the people that everything was fine and she was yet to look at me. I tried to get her attention a few times especially when I noticed that she was anxious about it but she was more concerned with ignoring me. Five minutes before the meeting, I grabbed her arm and turned her to face me. She didn’t protest but I could see her searching for a way out.

“Quit it,” I told her and she raised a brow. “Don’t you think it is time that you dropped the attitude?”

“What attitude?” she asked and I resisted the urge to growl at her.

“I get that you’re upset but I will not apologize for protecting you. If I had asked you before tossing you in there, would you have agreed?” she stayed silent but we all knew the answer. “The way I see it, we can sit here and fight about this or we can come to the conclusion that neither of us agrees with the other’s choices and move on.”

“That isn’t how these things work,” she frowned.

“Ask me if I care,” I shot back.

“I am the Queen and I have powers that can help. It looks weird if I just hide away during a battle”

“No one gives a shit about your powers. You are the Queen and that means you have to be protected at all times. Do you think your mother ever went into battle?” I asked and she frowned. “We have to talk to the people in less than two minutes and I am not going out there pretending like we are the picturesque couple when you won’t even speak to me.”

“Whatever,” she rolled her eyes but I could see a small smile playing on her lips.

I didn’t get the chance to respond because one of the guards came to tell us that everything was ready. I clasped Camilla‘ hand feeling relieved to finally be touching my mate after over a day. I could feel her anxiety as we made our way out to the raised platform. The square was even fuller than the first time.

“Can

you

address them?” she asked via the mind link. “I don’t think I can do it.”

“Are you okay?” I asked because she sounded like she was on the verge of throwing up.

She ignored my question. “Please, Ryker.”

“Of course.”

She broke off the link first and I turned to the crowd that was staring in silence before clearing my throat.

“We normally wouldn’t do this but your Queen thought that it would be for the best if you heard it from us seeing as you had the misfortune of witnessing the direct attack from Frederick,” I paused to make sure that I had everyone’s attention.copy right hot novel pub
