Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down by Patricia Maradiaga

Chapter 64

64 Something to hold on to Alessandro asked the servants to prepare a basket with food and his horse to leave.

When the servants had everything ready they left, Alessandro went slowly, he wanted Abril to appreciate the

landscape; when they reached the beach Alessandro went down first, then he helped her down, she stayed

looking at the sea for a moment, Alessandro had taken out a blanket, had spread it on the sand under the shade

of spalm trees and He placed the basket on top.

He approached April, placed the hat he had in her hand and said.

_The sun is very strong, let's rest a little under the shade of that palm tree, | don't want you to faint from the

heat.

_Yeah.

April followed Alessandro, he took off his shoes and sat on the blanket, he spread his arms and said to her.

_Chere.

April approached, she was going to sit next to Alessandro since that was what she had understood he wanted,

however, he subtly pulled her arm making her sit between his legs and she asked him.

_ What do you think you're doing? _Today | want to pamper my wife, can't I? _I didn't say that.

Alessandro hugged her and said.

_For today I'm all yours, I'll do whatever you want, you just have to ask.

April leaned on his chest and asked.

_ Can | really ask for whatever | want? _Of course, | will fulfill any wish, although letting you go is not among the

things | can fulfill.

_ And loving me? Alessandro was silent for a moment and replied.

_Yes, loving you is included.

And he kissed her.

They shared several kisses.

April knew that her request might never truly be granted, but at that moment she wanted to believe that his

answer had been real.

She wanted to have something to hold on to since she was feeling especially vulnerable that day.

They both stayed on the beach all day, when the sun began to set April approached the shore to watch how the

waves of the sea crashed against the sand and formed a white foam, Alessandro hugged her from behind, rested

his chin on her shoulder and asked her.

_ Are you OK? _Yeah.

_ Sure? _Yeah.

_Well, you don't look like it.

_ What are you talking about? _| feel like something is bothering you.

April was silent for a moment and finally answered.

_It's because of my father.

_ Are you worried about what that pirate said? _You wouldn't sendback to him, would you? _Of course not,

are you afraid to go back to him? _| don't want to go back to that castle, that's all.

Alessandro knew there was something more behind Abril's words, but he didn't want to insist that she tell him,

since she didn't seem to want to talk about it.

_I've told you before, | won't let you leave my side, if your father wants to take you back he would have to face

me, the war would start again and this the won't be on the winning side.

April seemed to have doubts about what Alessandro was telling her, he broke their hug, took her face in his

hands and asked her.

_ Do you doubt me? _I don't want you to fight with my father because of me, | don't want anything to happen to

you, my father is not good.

_Now you are part of my family, | will not let anyone take you away from me, that is just my own selfishness, and

your father has becold, | can handle him, don't worry about that.

April hugged him and said.

_Alright.

When they returned to the mansion, there was a man in completely black armor waiting for them at the door.

Alessandro helped Abril off the horse and said to her.

_Go ahead, I'll go now.

April walked past the man and felt a chill run down her spine.

She walked quickly, wanting to get away as fast as she could.

There was something about the man that had made April uneasy.

Before leaving, April looked at Alessandro.

He seemed upset.

She wondered who the man was and what he had cto do.

Alessandro frowned and said to the man in armor.

_ What are you doing here Taren? _I need to speak to your majesty.

_You better believe that what you've cto tellis very important for you to introduce yourself in this way.

_l assure you that it is, your majesty.

Alessandro asked him to follow him, they both entered an empty room, after making sure that there was no one

else Taren took off his helmet, he was relieved to be able to take off that helmet, he had been waiting all day to

be able to speak with the king and since he could not reveal his identity He had to stay in that armor all day

despite the great heat.

_l can finally breathe, | was roasting, a little more and | would have died.

_ What have you cfor, Taren? Taren took out a letter and handed it to the king.

_ What is this? _I don't know, I'm just the messenger.

Alessandro opened the letter, after reading it he said.

_Go back to the palace and give Sirius a message to strengthen the magical barriers.

_ All? _All of you and hurry up.

_ Do I have to go now? Alessandro raised an eyebrow, his gaze was intimidating, he didn't have to say anything,

his answer was reflected on his face.

_ Okay, | understand, I'll leave immediately.

_Don't be distracted by the road Taren.

_l'won't do it, your majesty, | will use teleportation scrolls, | will arrive at the palace in a few minutes.

_Go away.

Taren bowed and left the room, heading out into the courtyard where he tore a scroll and vanished into thin air.
