143 “Eternal Sleep”

‘Father?’

Eleanora looked back in amusement as she felt Alexander hold her wrist gently.

At first, she thought she heard it wrong but seeing the seriousness of his blue eyes, Eleanora was sure that she didn’t heard it wrong.

Her father indeed offered her to dance with him, her first dance as an adult.

Alexander’s heart felt a little sad as he saw her surprised look.

‘She still can’t believe in me enough...’

But that won’t stop him from saving her. He won’t let the past repeat itself.

He remembers how his daughter couldn’t match the crown prince’s steps and in the end of the dance, she fall down.

But the crown prince didn’t helped her to stood up and left while leaving her alone.

.....

Alexander thought that Eleanora was going to ask the emperor for a dance, who was standing in a corner behind Dominic.

“Elee?”

Alexander called her again as she didn’t replied but his eyes widened in surprise as Eleanora smiled brightly at him.

“Yes, Father!”

It was always Eleanora’s dream to dance with her father. When she was little, she used to watch her parents dance with each other.

At that time, she really wanted to grow up quickly to dance with her father.

And now, she finally got that chance... How can she miss this?

Normally, people only dance with their partners.

So it was the first time for them to see someone dance with their parents.

The people around them started to whisper and talk about it, but Alexander and Eleanora paid no attention to them.

Both of them happily walked to the center of the dance hall and the slow music began to play.

“I have always wanted to dance with you, Father.”

Eleanora spoke but although Alexander was smiling, she saw the frown he made which disappeared in an instant.

“What happened? Are you displease with something, father?”

“...”

Seeing that Alexander still kept quiet, Eleanora felt frustrated.

‘Just what made him unhappy?’

“Why are you suddenly calling me father?”

“Huh?”

Eleanora was stunned to hear Alexander’s question.

‘So, he was angry because i called him father, not daddy?’

Eleanora didn’t knew either she should laugh or cry. Just when did her cold father become so cute?

“Am 18 now. Calling you daddy seems childish. People will laugh at me...”

Eleanora replied as she continued to dance a little awkwardly because of people’s gaze on them with her father and looked at Alexander with warm eyes.

The fatherly love she always wanted... She finally got them.

“Don’t care about people... Just call me whatever your heart feels like.”

Alexander spoke in a gentle voice. His daughter should only care about what she likes now.

He will take care of the rest.

Alexander’s gaze fall on the black haired man in the corner as he thought in his mind.

“No matter what others says, I will support and protect you in your every decision, Elee.”

Alexander’s words seem like hit on Eleanora’s weak spot, which always craved for such words.

Words that made her feel safe and secure, knowing that no matter what happens; there is always someone behind her to protect her from harm.

His words made her smile brightly as ever again as she spoke.

“Okay, Daddy!”

With that, Eleanora who was dancing a little awkwardly for people’s gaze on her stopped caring about them and started to dance happily with her father.

‘Ah, am dizzy...’

Eleanora thought as she put her hands on the sides of her head and continued to walk towards her room.

Back then, she was too excited to dance with her father which resulted her to forget that she was actually sick.

Although she doesn’t have the fever anymore but she feels weak and dizzy.

‘What’s wrong... I seldom fall sick because of my holy powers, did i caught some incurable disease?’

Eleanora thought as she felt like it wasn’t a normal cold.

She never felt this sick and weak even when she had high fever.

She is feeling more weak after she drank the juice downstairs in the party.

No one should dare to do something in her own house, so what’s happening.

Eleanora kept walking even when she felt that her visions was becoming blurred and dark.

She couldn’t even see anything clearly but then she clearly heard a cold but low voice, which shocked her.

“So, the medicine has started to work...”

Eleanora felt a shiver on her whole body like someone had poured a bucket of cold water on her.

Someone actually dared to do something under her father’s nose.

Just who can be this bold?

Even the emperor is present today!

“W-Who... My father~ will not spare you...”

Eleanora tried her best to stand firmly but she couldn’t.

She felt her legs go numb and body becoming weaker.

‘Usually there would be knights on the hallway, where are they?’

Eleanora tried to look around with her blurry vision, but she was confirmed that no one was around her.

Otherwise they would obviously help her.

‘Where is Maria... Wasn’t she following me?’

Eleanora tried to use her powers, but she couldn’t concentrate and because of her trying to use the powers, she become more weak and fall on the ground.

‘What’s happening... Why can’t i use my powers?’

The more she tried, the more weaker she become.

Resulting her to cough blood which made Eleanora’s assumption to be right.

‘I- I am poisoned? How?’

Right then, she felt the footstep coming closer and bent down before her.

The person caught her chin to look at her pale face.

“Tsk, Why are you so stubborn? Just give up, no one is here to help you.”

The man spoke and Eleanora tried her best to see the person, who dared to harm her in her own house.

Her body was becoming numb and her eyes felt heavy, wanting to shut off where different noises kept ringing on her head.

‘It’s so painful...’

Eleanora felt her body was being stabbed by something continually.

Like something new was being inserted in her body.

.....

Then she finally managed to get a glimpse of the person infront of her and felt like the person was speaking something but she couldn’t hear them anymore as she fall unconscious.

“You better obey me and i will make sure you can peacefully go to eternal sleep, My empress...”
