...The Queen's Responsibilities...
...(.(.Season 3)...
**
The sunlight penetrated the window of the King and Queen's room. Marking the day is morning, and it's time to start activities. Arrabella, who had bathed and berias, immediately woke her husband who was still lying in bed.
" Your Majesty, it's morning. You can be late for the hunt" Arrabella said as she shook Aiden's still-falling body in their bed, the woman spoke affectionately.
" It's still morning, 5 minutes to go." replied Aiden lazily, then closed his eyes again
" My king, let's get up quickly or I'll..
" You're gonna what? kiss me? if that's all you can do then I'll wake up" said spoiled Aiden
CUPS
One kiss from Arrabella landed on Aiden's cheek, the man's eyes instantly opened and became excited.
" You're getting bolder ya "
GREPS
Aiden got up and hugged his wife from behind affectionately.
" It's good that you're awake, let's get ready. This morning we had a meeting with the nobles and in the afternoon you had a hunting event in the Clariness forest, right?" arrabella asked while holding Aiden's hand
" Aren't you going to come with me to the hunt?" ask Aiden to hope
" I want her to come, but I can't. A lot of work piled up in my study, not to mention the noble ladies he said would visit today. I'm so busy "Arrabella explained
" Basic women, he likes to party, "Aiden grumbles
" It's no ordinary party. Do you know that I am now the mother of this country? this banquet is very important to establish the relationship and harmony between the Queen and other noble ladies. It is my responsibility to have a banquet like this" said Arrabella, giving understanding to her husband
" All right I understand. But when is your time empty? Is there an empty schedule this week? " ask Aiden
" It's a pity, my schedule this week has been very busy. What's wrong?" ask Arrabella
" There's nothing, if your schedule is off. Tell me right away "
" Naomi must be happy with the surprise that I will give you later "inner Aiden
" Yes, alright" answered Arrabella with a friendly smile
" Aiden I'm sorry, really sorry. It's for your good and this kingdom" Arrabella's inner self feels guilty
Aiden suddenly kissed his wife's lips gently, his hands clutching Arrabella's cheeks.
Humphs...
humphs..
Haaaah..
The kiss is released, by Arrabella who pushes Aiden's body.
" It's been making me stay up all night, do you want any more?" ask Arrabella pouting
" I'm sorry, I got out of control last night. After you are so beautiful, today it is enough to just kiss " said Aiden with a smile
" Alright, I forgive you for saying I'm beautiful."
" I love you "Aiden looked at Arrabella affectionately
" I also "Arabella replied with a smile
The woman stood up and tidied up her clothes. Aiden also stood up and rushed to the bathroom.
Unlike royalty or royalty who used to bathe or berias served by maids, Arrabella and Aiden were exceptions. They refused to be accompanied in the shower, and got ready. According to Arrabella, the Queen of Clariness, preparing for her husband's needs is part of her responsibilities and obligations as a wife, Aiden also thought the same thing.
Therefore, no one was ever allowed into their room for any reason, only Daisy was allowed to enter the room, and her duty was only to fix the King and Queen's room.
Palace life does not change much after the deaths of Eugene and Claire. Aiden and Arrabella were both busy in state affairs. Sometimes they meet only at night or in the morning, or even if Aiden has affairs outside the area, the couple may not meet in days.
HORN
" His Majesty the King has ARRIVED !!" demian shouted out loudly
The doors of the royal meeting room of the nobles opened. There were already some nobles sitting in their seats. Upon Aiden's arrival, everyone immediately saluted without exception.
King Aiden walked with charisma, his serious and sometimes friendly face, a sharp eye, making the man increasingly disinclined by those around him.
" Hail the King ! long life, healthy always ! " the nobles said as they bowed in respect
Tap
Tap
Tap
The Clariness king walked towards his middle seat, among the nobles. Wherever the king went there was Lorenzo walking behind him.
As King Aiden sat in his seat, all the nobles who were there also followed him and sat down after their salutes were received by the King.
" Let's start today's meeting" Aiden said in a loud voice
King Aiden and the nobles held a meeting on the placement of positions for the nobles. After discussing with deliberation, they reached a consensus. The nobles and ministers were given the confidence of holding 1 region each.
No matter where the conversation that began to cause inconvenience for King Aiden, suddenly some nobles talked about the heir to the kingdom of Clariness.
" It's been willing 2 years, the marriage of the King's majesty and the Queen's majesty. Is there no plan to have a child? " ask Marquez Elza
" Why so rushed? it's only been 2 years since our marriage.I can still lead the country" said Aiden cynically and stared intently at the nobles.
" Mother, it's not so noble" said Marquez Elza nervously and fearfully
"' I'm sorry if I sassy your majesty, but what Marquez Elza and Viscount Carsiel said is not wrong. Although the noble can still lead our country, but an heir is still in need. I heard rumors about the illness of Her Majesty the Queen, who said that Her Majesty is barren, if that is true I can propose to Her Majesty the King to take a concubine " duke Vantias (a former supporter of Eugene in the past) said boldly
Aiden was astonished and angry when he heard Duke Vantias' words. He could not hold back his emotions anymore. The Clariness king kicked the table and was angry with Duke Vantias. Meanwhile the nobles looked at her in shock, because Aiden had never been so angry before.
" How dare you propose such an unreasonable request. You have even insulted the Queen of this land and said her barren ! How outrageous are you Duke Vantias !" aiden shouted in anger
" His Majesty the King is so sensitive if it's about His Majesty. Although Duke Vantias' words are true, talking openly about them like this is a big mistake "inward Lorenzo
" I am. I am just saying the facts, and I propose the best for this country. It never hurts for a King to have a concubine" Duke Vantias said as he turned his face away
Aiden grew increasingly enraged, he ordered Sir Demian (who was already the head of the Black Knight), to punish Duke Vantias who had insulted the Queen. Duke Vantias was dragged out by Sir Demian and several royal guards to get his punishment for his indecency. The Clariness King broke up the meeting and warned everyone to keep their mouths shut.
" If until this incident leaks out, all of you in this room will receive the consequences, without exception. Especially if it comes to my Queen's ears, you prepare to die " said Aiden seriously
GLUE
The nobles present there fell silent in fear and said they would obey Aiden's orders.
In his little heart he admitted that what Duke Vantias said was a fact, but in the other part of his heart he was unwilling to accept that fact for fear of hurting Arrabella and himself. Not that he did not want to have offspring, he had also dreamed about playing with a child similar to his and Arrabella.
However, it is true that his wife may not be able to give him offspring. Even though they have recovered from the poison, taken herbal medicines, treated the best doctors, even wearing red jade given by Saint Lucia, their efforts to have children have not been successful.
" Concubine? even though I really wanted to have a child, but to take a concubine and betray Arrabella was impossible. I'd better not have a child in my entire life" muttered Aiden stress
Lorenzo was concerned to see Aiden so angry and stressed for the first time because of the nobles' words about having offspring. He thought, if the King was like this only by hearing one word from the nobles, especially with his Queen who might have to face the slurs of the noble women.

In Queen Clariness's den..
Arrabella was checking and signing some documents that were beginning to recede at her desk.
" That document was piled up as high as a mountain, but now it has receded" said Grace happy
" Yes, thank goodness I was quick to do it. Today there will be a tea banquet of the noble ladies in the back garden" Arrabella said as she signed some papers on her desk
" His majesty is really great, being able to finish her paperwork quickly. Oh yes, she said Queen Megan of the Vanders will also attend the tea ceremony" Grace reported
The woman stopped her activity and fell silent for a moment. His face looked happy as soon as he found out that a close friend who was like his brother would come to his tea party. However, his smile slowly faded as he recalled the person he had invited to come at the party.
" Then what about her ? did you make sure he was coming ?" arrabella asked with a serious face and looked uncomfortable
" Yes, my majesty, Miss Valton has already agreed to the invitation given by your majesty. It is certain that he will come this afternoon ", Grace replied
" So it's time yeah ..haa." Arrabella muttered with a sigh, the woman's gaze was like harboring sadness and wounds.
1 hour passed, Arrabella and Grace had already completed their tasks in the study. The tea banquet at the Queen's palace was about to begin, the noble ladies were already waiting for the Queen in the back garden.
They sat at the table that was provided in the Queen's palace. There were about 15 noble ladies present, and on average all of them were unmarried women, except Megan.
Because the purpose of Arrabella holding this tea banquet was to see the potential of the noble ladies and improve her relations with the noble families as well.
" Her Majesty the queen has arrived !!" felix shouted announcing the Queen's arrival.
All the noble ladies present immediately bowed respectfully and gave their greetings as Arrabella came over to them. The Clariness Queen smiled kindly at everyone present.
" Hail, Queen !!" said the noble ladies present
" I hope I didn't interrupt your time for taking you to this banquet "Arrabella smiled
" Of course not the noble one" said one noble lady
" It is an honor for us to come to the banquet hosted by Her Majesty" said a noble lady
" Good, good to hear it. Well then, how about we all sit down and chat?" ask Arrabella kindly
Queen Clariness was flirting around like looking for someone who had not come. He looked anxious, but the woman covered the anxiety with a smile.
Shortly after the noble miss sat in their seats, Megan came with the baby in her sling. Queen Vanders was accompanied by a group of bodyguards assigned Dominic, Cane and Wen are also behind him.
" Queen Megan, have you come?" ask Arrabella kindly
" Yes, I'm sorry. I'm late, everyone, I'm sorry "Megan replied with a faint smile at all the noble ladies, and stared intently at Anna and Lily.
The noble ladies bowed in salute to Megan.
" Why did Queen Megan suddenly look at me like that? " inner Lily fretted
" Why does Queen Megan see me that way? did you make a mistake?" anna was confused
" Just be careful if you say things and hurt my sister, I won't stay silent "inner Megan looks dislike Lily and Anna
" What's wrong with them?" inner Arrabella wonder. Seeing Megan look cynical on Lily and Anna.
" Let's all sit down, and enjoy the tea.hehe "Arrabella is trying to melt the atmosphere.
They all sat down and enjoyed the tea. The noble ladies are seen chatting with each other, as well as Arrabella who quickly blends in.
All that harmonious atmosphere was broken when a noble lady who was present was late.
" I'm sorry for being late, I'm lost. I'm Sylvia Adelia Valton of Count Valton's family" Sylvia said, bowing respectfully in front of Queen Clariness.
Brown-haired woman, green eyes like emerald stone, white skin, her face reflects simplicity, her clothes are not too expensive and tend to be simple.
Arrabella looked at Sylvia from top to bottom, she smiled kindly at the girl.
" Welcome to this banquet of tea, Miss Valton "Queen Clariness welcomed Valton with pleasure.
" I am truly sorry, Your Majesty the Queen. " Sylvia looks sorry.
Queen Arrabella, Queen Megan and the nobles sat down and enjoyed her tea party. Arrabella continued to watch Sylvia's movements.
The village lady who had just received the noble title, looked easy to get along with others. His first impression was plain and kind. Arrabella likes the simplicity of the woman. Megan's separated
At that time, Arrabella thought this was the best choice for the happiness of her husband and the kingdom. But is this choice right? to take a concubine for her husband? Is this woman really as innocent as she looks from the outside?
