I'M The Unstoppable Queen
Chapters 18. Knowing the Truth

"Why didn't you tell Sister, Seline? And why do you say you're okay when you ask if you're hurt?" The Duke Ramon.

Duke Ramon continues to nag Queen Roseline when he learns that his beloved sister was pierced by the thorns of a black rose and exposed to the poison.

"Sister, relax. I did get poison, but I'll be fine. I also took an antidote made from black rose extract. Physician Fay has also given me painkillers."

Queen Roseline tried to calm her brother down. Duke Ramon hugged his brother.

"promise, Seline. Never risk your life again for anyone else, be it a king. It is better to lose my possessions and position than to lose another member of my family." Duke Ramon said in tears.

Queen Roseline just nodded. The door to Queen Roseline's room opened slightly roughly. Queen Roseline and Duke Ramon gasped to make their arms unravel.

"Dad!" Queen Roseline and Duke Ramon.

Duke Sullivan immediately ran towards his daughter and pulled her into his arms.

"Are you okay, son? I heard you were poisoned while looking for a cure for His Majesty the King." Duke Sullivan asked as both of his hands covered Queen Roseline's face with a sorrowful look.

"Seline's fine, Dad. Dad doesn't have to worry. Seline's gonna be cured soon." Queen Roseline said with a smile.

Duke Sullivan can't hold back his tears anymore. Queen Roseline invited him to sit down.

"Dad apologize. I'm really sorry I put you in this palace. Had I dared to refuse King Uther's request to marry you to King Alec, you would not have suffered like this." Said Duke Sullivan sobbing.

Queen Roseline wiped away her father's tears gently. Then both his hands held his father's hand.

"Dad doesn't have to apologize. Let's just say this is the destiny line God gave me. And I'll do it well, Dad. I'll take it easy, Seline won't let anyone hurt Seline anymore." Said the Queen Roseline softly.

Duke Sullivan nodded.

"Father will ask Queen Mother Helene and King Alec to release you from this bond, son. Whatever I'm gonna do to see you happy." Duke Sullivan.

"No. Don't say that, Duke Sullivan." I heard screaming from the door.

Suri Helene's mother stood in the middle of the door and listened to Duke Sullivan's words. Queen Roseline, Duke Sullivan and Duke Ramon immediately stood up and saluted.

"Sincerely, Your Majesty the Queen Mother."

Queen Mother Helene stepped into the room and approached Queen Roseline.

"How are you doing, son?" Queen Mother Helene asked with a worried face and her hands clasped that of Queen Roseline.

"Seline's good, Mom. Seline apologized for worrying about Mom and coming here tonight." Said the Queen Roseline softly.

"No Son. You don't have to apologize. It's just that Mom came here to thank you because my son can get the antidote."

"Mother also apologized, Seline, because you got hurt to get the black rose." Suri Helene's mother said regretfully.

"It's my job, Mother." Queen Roseline.

Suri Helene looked at Duke Sullivan.

"Duke Sullivan, I'm sorry for everything that happened to your daughter. I'm so sorry for all the pain he's felt because of my son. Honestly my heart was also broken upon seeing her sorrow."

"But please don't take Seline away from us. Give my son one more chance to right his wrongs and their marriage." Please Queen Mother Helene.

"But Your Majesty." Duke Sullivan's.

Suri Helene's mother immediately dropped her body on the floor and knelt before Duke Sullivan while covering her hands.

"Your Majesty." Duke Sullivan and Duke Ramon.

"Mothers. What did Mom do? Seline please stand up, Mother." Queen Roseline.

Queen Roseline tried to help Empress Dowager Helene to stand up, but Queen Mother Helene refused.

"I beg Duke. This is a request from a mother." Suri Helene said with tears in her eyes.

Duke Sullivan immediately knelt down.

"Hamba please Your Majesty. Don't humble yourself Your Majesty like this. Stand up Your Majesty." Duke Sullivan.

"I won't stand until Duke Sullivan grants my wish." The Queen Mother Helene.

"All right, I fulfill His Majesty's request. Now I beg Your Majesty to stand up immediately." Duke Sullivan said.

Suri Helene's mother soon got up, and was followed by Duke Sullivan.

"Thank you Duke. I promise you. If my Son were to offend Seline again, I would break their bond and free Seline from all court and royal laws of Cardania. I'll make sure of Seline's happiness myself." Queen Mother Helene's Promise.

"Thank you Your Majesty." Duke Sullivan.

The night is getting late. Queen Roseline stayed with Marie in her room. Queen Roseline felt her stomach churn. Marie had prepared buckets and water at the request of Queen Roseline. The Roseline Queen was no longer strong and spewed a pitch-black blood into the bucket.

"Your Majesty." Pekik Marie freaked.

"Calm down, Marie. I'm it's okay. The poison is out. Please bring some water." Queen Roseline.

Marie immediately gave water and cleared the Queen's vomit of blood. Then take the medicine given by the physician Fay to relieve the Queen's pain. After taking the medicine Queen Roseline immediately put her body down and rested her eyes.

The same goes for King Alec. King Alec spewed out more pitch-black blood. King Alec's body trembled at the sight of what he spewed out. His heart felt pierced and squeezed.

"What was the truth that I was taking medicine, and not poison?" Inner King Alec.

Marquess Filan looked extremely worried and scared.

"Tabib Ma's. Why is the King vomiting blood like this?" Ask Marquess Filan.

"That means the medicine is working fine. This black blood spewed out by His Majesty contains poison. His Majesty must spit it out in order for the poison in the King's body to come out." Answer physician Ma.

King Alec's body instantly suffocated after spewing out a lot of blood. Slowly his eyes began to weigh, and he soon fell asleep again. Physician Ma immediately cleared the remaining vomit from King Alec's face and body. Then the physician Ma examined the body of King Alec.

"The condition of His Majesty's body is getting better. His pulse was also getting stronger. The cure managed to neutralize the poison in His Majesty's body." Said physician Ma.

Marquess Filan breathed a sigh of relief.

"The queen was struck by the thorns of a black rose and its poison spread inside the Queen's body. The Queen said if she had taken the medicine of His Majesty the King, hopefully the poison can also be neutralized immediately. Physician Fay has also made painkillers for the Queen and medicine for wounds on the Queen's shoulder." Answer the healer Ma slowly.

The two spoke quietly because they did not want to disturb King Alec's sleep. Physician Ma immediately resigned himself to prepare a nausea and pain reliever for King Alec. When the healer Ma had come out, King Alec opened his eyes slowly. Actually King Alec did not really sleep and he heard the talk of Marquess Filan and the healer Ma.

"Filan." Call King Alec in a soft voice.

Marquess Filan widened his eyes, as did King Alec who was shocked to realize he could speak again despite being very slow.

"Your Majesty. You can talk." Marquess Filan was delighted.

King Alec nodded with a smile.

"Filane. Tell me, what happened to the Queen?" Ask King Alec.

"mmm... The Queen is fine, Your Majesty." The Marquess replied while forcing her smile.

"Don't lie to me. Tell me honestly for my life." King Alec.

"Your Majesty." The Marquess Filan.

King Alec looked at Marquess Filan sharply. Marquess Filan swallowed her rough saliva.

"The queen of Roseline was exposed to poison from the thorns of the black rose, Your Majesty." Marquess Filan.

"Say it clearly, Filan." King Alec demanded.

"The poison that attacked His Majesty the King is a very dangerous poison. And the palace healer couldn't make the antidote. Only the owner of the poison has the antidote. But we couldn't find out who did it. Even the Queen who also mastered the science of medicine could not concoct the antidote."

"Tabib Ma told him that the only way to treat His Majesty's pain was with a black rose that only existed on Mount Goby. The notoriously terrifying and extremely dangerous mountain located in the western region of the kingdom of Cardania." The Marquess Filan.

"Then?" Ask King Alec.

"The queen decided to go to Goby Mountain and get the black rose for Her Majesty. Duke Ramon and Felix who accompanied the Queen went to Mount Goby accompanied by Marquess Andry and some of his men."

King Alec widened his eyes and recalled Queen Roseline's words to him.

"You're really troublesome. Did you know getting this drug takes a fight?"

"The queen managed to get a black rose that is very rare and only grows one flower every year. At the time of taking the black rose, the Queen was exposed to its poisonous spines. Physician Ma said that the Queen would be fine, because the Queen said that if the Queen had taken the King's medicine." Marquess Filan.

King Alec is shocked to learn what Queen Roseline has done for him.

"So the Queen never came to visit me all this time because she went to Goby Mountain and got me a black rose." King Alec.

"Yes Your Majesty. At that time, the Queen was injured by a wolf's scratch on her shoulder." Answer Marquess Filan.

"What do you mean?" King Alec did not understand.

Marquess Filan let out a long sigh.

"Base camp the soldiers were broken through by a herd of wild wolves when the Queen visited there. Queen Roseline and Felix help General Azel and his men to protect the soldiers from the wolf pack's attack. And unfortunately, the Queen was exposed to a deep enough scratch on her left shoulder. Therefore, the Queen returned to the palace on horseback with Felix, Your Majesty." Answer Marquess Filan.

King Alec was silent. Her tears fell slowly. He deeply regrets having thought ill and accused Queen Roseline of cruel charges.

"I'm a bad guy. I'm a cruel husband. I could accuse my wife of cheating. The truth is that he was wounded to protect the soldiers of my kingdom." King Alec said regretfully.

Marquess Filan just kept quiet and lowered his head.

"I kept giving him pain and suffering. And when my life was threatened, he was the one who fought to save me." Lirih King Alec.

"Love the Queen, Your Majesty. Do not let Your Majesty regret later on when the Queen is no longer beside Your Majesty."

Marquess Filan gave himself to reveal it to the King. King smiled.

"I love him, Filan. Unfortunately, I realized it too late. When I wanted to embrace him, he became unattainable. He hates me now." Reveal King Alec with a sad look.

"Your Majesty must not give up. The Queen still cares about His Majesty. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Queen to risk her life to obtain a black rose." Marquess Filan.

King Alec nodded.

"I'm not giving up, Filan. I promise to get my wife's love back. And I won't let anyone try to hurt her." Said King Alec with his cold gaze.

The next day the nobles and palace officials had already gathered in the hall. Most of them still have not given up and will continue to try to convince Empress Dowager Helene to seek a successor to the King temporarily. A guard announced from outside the hall.

"Her Majesty Queen Roseline entered the hall." Shouted the guard.

The nobles and palace officials immediately turned their heads towards the door. A shocked and shocked roar was clearly imprinted on their faces when they saw Queen Roseline walking into the hall gracefully as well with her cold look and face.

To be continue ...
