453 What if l become the Ruler of this Kingdom?
"It should have helped you as well, did it not?"
Suddenly, Nux questioned with a slight smile on his face.
"…" Suddenly, Evane turned silent.
Nux then pulled her near him, her breasts touching his chest, their forehead and nose touching each other's, Nux's hands touching Evane's lower back while her hands touched his shoulders.
The two of them could feel each other's breath on their lips and in this position, Nux spoke in a low voice,
"You know you can talk to me when you feel troubled, don't you? You don't have to deal with everything alone. I want you to be a strong Evane like you were back in the Royal Hall, however, it is okay to be weak around someone you love. I will not hurt you."
This time, there was no playfulness in Nux's voice, his voice was filled with warmth and gentleness.
He started caressing her hair lovingly and questioned,
"Lovis's death still affected you, didn't it?"
"…"
Evane didn't say anything.
Nux didn't force her either, he continued to caress her hair while synchronizing his breathing with hers. He knew that he had to be patient here and he was ready to give as much time as Evane needed.
"…He didn't just die… I was the one who killed him…"
After a long silence, Evane finally said something.
"You didn't do anything wrong."
Nux's answer was firm.
"But I killed my own brother."
"A brother who was trying to stab you with a dagger that was laced with poison when you were fighting with your life on the line for him."
"H-He was wrong… I admit, but he was still my brother."
"Again, that makes it even worse. Trust me, you didn't kill him, in truth, you saved him. I was saving him for the last, I would have taken a good amount of time to deal with him, his end wouldn't have been so quick and painless. You saved him from endless misery."
Nux replied and after pulling Evane even close to him, he spoke,
"No one hurts my Evane and survives."
"…"
Evane turned silent.
Nux sighed, he started caressing her hair again and continued,
"Don't worry, what you did was not wrong, rather, it was a strong move. It proved that you are not the weak woman others think you are. You are someone who can take a hard decision and stick with it.
That is a Quality of a Queen.
You, my Evane, will become an amazing Queen.
A True Queen."
"It's painful to become a queen…"
Evane spoke in a weak voice.
"…"
Nux paused.
A weak smile then appeared on his face, he placed Evane's head on his chest and nodded,
"It is, it is very painful to become a Queen, but don't worry, I will be here with you. You can share this pain with me. That will ease the pain."
Hearing Nux's words and feeling his pats, Evane finally decided to let go, and soon,
Streams of tears fell out of her eyes and she started crying.
Nux closed his eyes and continued to pat her.
Time passed, and under Nux's gentle pats, Evane fell asleep, seeing that, Nux smiled, he gently wiped her tears, placed her cheeks in Evane's head and he closed his eyes as well.
