My Husband is a King
Women in the East Mansion
"Aunt Odeth, you'd better not talk to anyone. Danger if Your Majesty hears it." Although her lips dodged, but in her heart Eliana was happy to hear the former lady-in-waiting of the King say so.
With a flushed apple of cheeks, Eliana said, "I .. Where may I marry Your Majesty."
Meanwhile Odeth shook his head. "Miss Eli .. You are too innocent. Supposedly, as a woman Miss must not allow a man to touch you, even if it's a King."
Eliana sighed, what Aunt Odeth said was true. "Aunt ...," complained Eliana to the middle-aged woman. "Does a woman like me have any other choice?"
The girl looked at the lady with such a pitiful face. Her pupils were wobbling, her corneas were beginning to runny which were blocked by her eye fertilizers. "I ... I .. was just being a repayment of my father's debt. My stepmother sold me to Mr. Antony." Eliana poured out her condition on Odeth.
The middle-aged woman was speechless, she also knew how Eliana could be in this place. All because of Eliana who paid off her father's debt to the kingdom of Raisilian.
"Yes .. I understand Miss. As small people, we can't do anything to protect our self-esteem" said Odeth, who joined in tears.
"But .. I should feel a little lucky, Auntie. Because His Majesty has not hurt me. Your Majesty did everything for Kevin's baby."
Eliana and Odeth stared at the tiny baby who was sleeping soundly back in Eliana's lap.
"Aunt Odeth?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Do you know who Kevin's baby is? Why is His Majesty so privileging?" ask Eliana.
"I. .. did not dare to ask," said Eliana.
"Actually, the news we got as a ladyboy was still confusing. None of the courtiers knew the truth" replied Odeth. "Just ...." Odeth hangs his words.
"Just just, Auntie?" ask Eliana.
"Only, we have heard that King Gerald once hid a woman in a mansion located east of the kingdom of Raisilian." Odeth knitted his eyebrows together, a sign that he was very serious with words.
"King Gerald has a mistress of women?" Eliana was shocked at the news she heard.
"But ... Miss Eli, don't be in a hurry to think so. It's just a crossword news among the royal court clerks." Odeth.
"Is that so?" Eliana. "But .. even though it's a confusing news, of course there are major sources that cause the news. So ... what causes employees to think so?"
"That's .. due to two bodyguards and a lady-in-waiting who were suddenly sent there." Odeth begins the story. "In addition, His Majesty the King also often visited the mansion even though there was no royal duty."
"That's all?" ask Eli.
"No!" firmly Odeth. "There's more, Miss!" Odeth sighed for a moment before telling his story back. "So ... back then, His Majesty King Gerald had just been appointed King Raisilian VII. He sent two bodyguards and a lady-in-waiting, two months after his inauguration. Somehow long ... I had forgotten, which was clear a few months after that, King Gerald brought this baby and after this baby was in the palace, the, His Majesty King Gerald never again visited the mansion," Odeth explained at length.
