Secrets novel Chapter 8

I gasped loudly as everyone did because of his disrespect and somehow In admiration, not only was he tall, he was very handsome with dark blue eyes, a strong jaw, and medium blond hair.

"That wouldn't be possible," Henry answered coldly as people watched quietly, I looked at him then at Henry in relief.

"Forgive me my king for my bad joke, but my mind is not made up yet so please give me some time to make up my mind," he answered respectively.

Henry sighed then smiled.

"Very well my noble knight, when you do decide on anything that pleases you, do tell me or one of my adviser's," he said calmly.

Henry nodded at Jack then went down from where he sat as I followed, he walked into the palace and into his room, he turned and looked at me with a frown.

"Let me guess, you came to argue over the Knight's request right?" he asked lazily.

He was right, I hated the disrespect the Knight potrayed in front of everyone, I was a queen not some hoe.

"Yes, I didn't like the way the Knight disrespected me in front of our people, the joke went to far!" I exclaimed.

"You have two minutes to get the hell out of my room," he said loudly.

"My king don't do this, I won't allow such disrespect" I answered desperately.

"Get out!" He yelled angrily.

"Henry listen to me!" I yelled back.

"Out!" He screamed.

"You are selfish!" I screamed back then left for my room.

I walked in angrily and sat in my room with my ladies on the bed.

They all looked sad and unhappy, it was obvious that I was in a lovelss marriage.

"My queen, it's late you need to rest," Lauren said softly.

"No I don't feel like resting" I answered seriously.

"My queen, I know you hated how the Knight was disrespectful, but he was just jocking," Lauren said.

"It was a very bad joke I wasn't okay with" I answered loudly as I stood up.

"My queen please do rest," Janet begged.

"No, you stay here and lock the door, don't go anywhere, I'm going out now and nobody should follow me no matter what, that's an order," I said as I covered my face with a veil.

I walked out of my room quietly and went out of the palace unseen, I smiled when I saw the chapel ahead.

I quickly walked towards it and entered, remembering what my mother used to do, I went straight in front and knelt down near the altar powerlessly.

My mother used to tell me how all prayers where heard if one said then from the heart, I didn't quite believe it but I was desperate for any sort of answer and protection.

"I have never asked for anything in my life," I said loudly then sighed

"I remember when I was a little girl, mother came to you, she used to beg you every time father went on wars or on journeys, she would whisper to you.

"Please bring him back home safely from war or his journey",
