The Forgotten Princess Rose-Chapter 290

"You do not need to be shy, Milady. I am used to this already," Krystle said, hoping to ease Rose from being embarrassed.

"You say that but I can see your face in the mirror. It is too much," Rose said, wishing she had stopped Zayne. "I look like I have been bitten by bugs."

"It shows his love for you. It is a good sign that your marriage is going well when your husband cannot keep his hands off of you. I will leave your hair down since you are worried and get a dress able to hide your neck," said Krystle.

"Thank you," Rose answered, grateful to have Krystle. "I don’t think we should but we might have visitors coming to see Zayne now that he is home. We must be prepared to entertain anyone my husband wants to see. Is he still looking at his swords?"

"I believe so. The maids have already taken the luggage he brought back to wash and dry. The gardeners woke early to get the garden back to its former beauty to please you. The estate will be fixed fast and everything will be back to normal."

Rose didn’t think it would all be back to normal since Zayne was looking at his swords to decide which one he wanted to take with the palace to kill the men who brought her up. Rose knew that drama was coming, not going back to normal.

After Zayne got rid of the men who wanted to place the blame on her, was this going to solve anything? Weren’t others going to place blame on her for him killing others? freewёbnoνel.com

"Krystle, do you remember what Mary said yesterday about the court placing blame on me?"

Rose asked, turning around to face Krystle.

"I do," Krystle replied.

"If my husband were to go to the palace and harm anyone for speaking on me, many would still be too scared to speak on him and pass the blame to me, right? That I am making him hurt those from this kingdom, right?" Rose asked, knowing what the answer might be.

Krystle nodded her head. "Some might say you are making the prince act odd. They are too afraid to speak on him so they will speak on you. There will always be someone to speak as they might believe the prince doesn’t have time to come after them."

"I see. I must get dressed quickly to go to Zayne before he leaves," Rose said, turning back to the mirror.

"Will you stop him from hurting the court? Oh, forgive me," Krystle said, apologetic as she spoke out of turn.

"It is fine to speak. I have no one else to speak to. I am not going to stop him from hurting the court. I am going to stop him from doing it where many will see. I think it might be too much to kill someone for speaking about me. I don’t want Zayne to kill someone for me again," Rose said, finding Graham to be enough.

"He should just scare them into silence," Rose added.

Krystle was surprised to hear Rose speak of this so casually. Normally a woman in her position wouldn’t speak about violence.

Krystle helped Rose to get dressed quickly and followed her as she went in search of Zayne.

Rose found Zayme still looking at the room filled with his weapons, armour, and uniforms. "You are dismissed for now," she told Krystle.

Krystle closed the door as she left and stood guard outside for no one to disturb the pair inside.

"Have you come here to tell me not to go to the palace? I am going to deal with them for bringing you up. They thought I was dead to get away with it. I am still going to the palace," Zayne said before Rose could try to tell him not to.

Rose placed her hands behind her back and inspected the room as she walked toward Zayne. "I am not stopping you from going to the palace this morning. I am coming to ask that you do not kill them in daylight for many to speak of this. No one knew you killed Graham. Why?"

Even though he was a royal, Rose feared there would be consequences Zayne could not get out of. Consequences Gage could not help with.

"Because I killed him when he came to me and no one knew of our meeting. Are you instructing me to kill them in secret instead of in the palace? This is surprising," Zayne said, intrigued by her plan.

"I don’t want the people who respect you to start fearing you. Fearing that you can kill anyone for just speaking on your wife and get away with it because you are a royal. I don’t want you to be a royal seen as abusing their power because you would be no different from what you saved my kingdom from. So, don’t kill them for anyone to see," Rose suggested.

She knew it would be suspicious still but what mattered was no one being able to prove it.

"I’m not going to be like James or his children," Zayne promised. He lifted Rose’s hand to kiss it.

"Truthfully, I don’t think you need to kill anyone for speaking about me. You’ll end up having to kill too many people since this is only the beginning. You can scare them into silence. You are good at being scary which is why I stuck around you so long," Rose joked.

"I want the court to be dealt with but I don’t feel fully comfortable with them dying because they spoke about me. Still, I am willing to endure it if you deal with them where you are not caught. You are good and I don’t want this to make others fear you. Fear that they cannot speak. I can ignore what is said. What will you do now?"

"Well, if my wife is bothered by me killing anyone then I have to listen. I shouldn’t have let you know of my plans. I can scare them as you say," Zayne said since he was good at it. "For now, leave them with a warning of what happens when they speak on you but I will kill them if they speak on you again."

"This isn’t a simple matter with gossip. Had I not returned, they would have placed my bad luck on you and pulled you to the palace to question you. They would get the kingdom riled up to the point my brother would have to go through with questioning you. At some point, killing them will be the only option and I will not have you chance my mind then," Zayne said, knowing those fools would try something again if he did nothing.
