Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne novel Chapter 158

Chapter 158 The kinder side.

Clearly, she was dreaming. There was no way the prince had just told her he loved her. Doris parted her lips to speak, but he kissed her hungrily instead. It silenced all of her thoughts and worries and melted away the world around them. She wanted to capture this moment forever and take it with her into the afterlife. Even when she felt uncertain about herself, she felt right in his arms. William pulled her against him and had her straddle his lap. It sent a small wave of nausea over her that she wanted to curse until she was blue in the face. Now was not the time to be sick! Slowly, she pulled away when she couldn’t ignore it any longer and clenched her eyes closed. “I’m sorry, I just feel a little sick and I don’t want to get you sick.” William’s fingers ran through her long hair almost absentmindedly. “Sick? Since when? Nobody told me you were.” “It’s just a cold. Nothing to worry over.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)” Doris opened her eyes when the feeling passed and smiled at William. His eyes were glued to her mouth. “Too much time in the snow, I assume.” William didn’t look entirely convinced. His eyes trailed her features as if there was another answer hidden within. Doris ran her fingers through his messy hair and felt her toes curl in her boots at the feeling. All the times she wanted to do just that, now she was free to do so when she wished. Doris took a deep breath. “I love” William covered her mouth with his hand and shook his head. “Don’t say it. Not yet.”

She deflated a little under his touch. He picked her up and carried her to her room and gently set her under the warm covers. All the energy left her and exhaustion replaced it. “I didn’t think you had a kind side to you when I first met you.” Doris whispered as she watched him pull off her boots. She thought he would roll his eyes or glare at her, but the side of his mouth lifted instead. “ You’re the only person that is allowed to see this side of me. I’ll bury you if you tell anyone.” Doris laughed and rolled on her side. “For a moment, I thought you were going soft on me.” “Never.” William glanced at the door behind him as if he wasn’t sure when to leave. She resisted the urge to tug him on top of her. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)“A gown will be delivered in the morning for the play tomorrow.” “Will your father be able to attend it?” “I was told he’ll be there.” William closed his fists at his sides. “I think the whole idea is ridiculous and should be canceled but no one wants to agree with me.” “I do.” Doris gripped his hand. He felt so tense in her hold. “I agree with you. I don’t think it’s a good idea to have the king out of bed just to have a silly play. It won’t make him any better.” William squeezed her hand. “Rest. I will come for you tomorrow.” “You’re not staying?” Doris leaned up on her elbows and furrowed her brows at him. “No, I have matters to discuss tonight. I won’t have time for sleep.” William released her hand and turned for the door. She wanted to wrestle him back into the bed but her head wouldn’t let her see straight for more than a moment.

Once her head fell back onto the bed, she was out.

“Doris!” Beth called. She came bursting into her room and seemed embarrassed by her own actions when she realized Doris had been sleeping. “I’m so sorry, I should have knocked! | thought you were up.” Doris groggily sat up to see Beth clenching a gown in her hands. She was practically bouncing on her toes with excitement. “Look what just came for you! Isn’t it the most beautiful gown you’ve ever seen?” In the gloomy light, it was quite the dress. It looked fitted at the bodice but flowed out in gorgeous pink waves and roses down the back that made her heart swell. Never had she seen something so beautiful… and it was meant for her. 1 “Are you sure that’s mine…? There’s no way it’s meant for me. It’s the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen!” Beth threw it over the bed to lay it out more. “Don’t be silly! Of course it’s for you! Prince William only wants the best for his lady, clearly.” Beth grinned. Doris slowly got out of bed and gripped the wall when the same feeling of dizziness rolled over her. Beth was at her side in an instant to hold her up straight. “Are you okay?” “I’m fine.. I just got up too fast. I forgot to eat dinner last night.” “Oh my goodness, I can’t believe I forgot to bring your dinner!” Beth slapped herself in the head and sat Doris back on the bed. “Wait here, I have your breakfast in the other room.” “Beth, it’s okay!” Doris called after her frantic friend. She was back in a minute with a tray of delicious food–but for some reason it made her feel nauseated. 3 “I had the kitchen make your favorite since I knew you would be nervous today. Pancakes and potatoes!” Beth placed the food on her lap before she drowned the sweet cakes in a maple sauce. “Thank you Beth… Will you prepare me a bath?” “Of course!” Her friend smiled and hurried to the bathing room. Doris forced herself to eat as much as she could before she laid back in her bed and prayed the feeling of sickness would pass. 1 “Okay all, Doris, are you sure you’re alright? You look pale.” Beth helped her sit up and cleared away the plates. Doris held her breath when it felt as if her breakfast was about to come back up. “I think I’m just nervous about today. It’s my first appearance as his lady…(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)” Not to mention the first time she’ll see Martin and Luna Queen since she rejected him. Had William already had the meeting with his brother? “Hm, I’m not sure if that’s it. You looked just as pale yesterday.” Beth helped her stand. “Do you think you can take a bath? You won’t pass out in there?” “No, no I’ll be fine!” Doris insisted. Beth helped her into the bathroom and she undressed the moment the door was closed. 1 And then the world shifted again. Doris managed to make it to the nearest bucket when she vomited up her entire breakfast. And then some. She ignored Beth’s banging as everything inside her came out. I “Doris! Open up!”  Slowly, the world righted once her stomach was emptied. Everything made her feel as if she was about to vomit again. No sense of relief would find her. “Doris, please. I don’t think you should bathe!” “I’m okay!” Doris called weakly. She knew Beth was right. She cleaned herself up with the

unlocked the door. Beth took one look inside the room and made a face as if she was about to faint. “Doris. You can’t go to that play, you’ll pass out!” “It’s just a cold! The wolves are strong enough to be around me.” Doris brushed past her and went to lift the dress. “Are you sure it’s a cold?” Beth asked cautiously as she eyed her. “Nothing else it could be?” “What on earth else would it be? I haven’t been poisoned, I know those symptoms.” Doris sighed and stepped inside the dress. Beth quickly zipped it up for her before she led her to the vanity. “I’m just saying, I’ve seen similar symptoms with my mother-” 1 “Can we not talk about this right now? I feel as if my head is about to explode.” Doris groaned and rubbed her temple.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) “Of course.” Beth said quietly and started her hair. After what felt like hours, Beth finally allowed Doris to see her appearance. Her skin was no longer pale, but had some pink tones as if she put life back into her. Her long hair was pinned half up on the crown of her head with small roses that matched the ones on her dress. “Oh my, Beth! You… you’re amazing.” Doris breathed. She went to her long mirror and spun around in her dress. It flowed around the room like an ocean of fabric. “I had a beautiful canvas, it wasn’t hard.” Beth smiled and handed her a pastry. “Eat before you go. You need energy.” Doris felt her stomach rumble and ate the chocolate delight in two bites. Suddenly she was starving, but there was no time for dinner. When a knock sounded at the door, she wanted to melt into the floor. William was here.
