The Commoner Consort: The Country’s Respected Empress - Chapter 206
Bhommi appears inside the room and says “Maybe he accepted the Power as his own? Not like certain someone who wanted to keep the truth remain hidden…”
Maya looks at Bhommi and realizes what she is saying is right. She never accepted the fact and remained extra careful all her life!
She never gave a chance for her Power to come out! She always suppressed it and …feared it deep inside her heart.
“Summon Jonathan as soon as possible to prepare my cold bath and tell him that I asked him to call Alex at once! Tell him it’s a dire situation!”.
Maya frowns “…” Does this man want to take bath?! Now?! Just what in the universe is he?!-
THUD!
Maya was about to mock him for his weirdness but before that Kalki stepped back from Xavier weakly and falls on the ground.
Maya “..”
Bhommi gasps “Did he use his all energy to cure his brother?”
Maya gets out from her shock and asks “What?”
Bhommi flies away telling Maya “I believe he has some method to retrieve his Energy! I will search that Jonathan man! Follow me, Sister Maya!”
Without giving anytime for Maya to think, Bhommi leads the way in the Countryside Pavilion.
Maya runs fast with Bhommi without any words. If Bhommi says they have to act fast, she knows they should. And for some reason, she trusted Kalki this time that it’s really a dire situation.
Also she doesn’t even know any way to help the situation, so decides to follow his order just this time as he saved Xavier!
“There!”
Maya notices Jonathan helping the fellow soldiers who got hurt during the snow storm and shouts “Jonathan!”
Everyone around Jonathan stares Maya running towards them hurriedly and looks each other worriedly.
While Jonathan walked ahead in hurry to stop her from running further, he bows “Your Highness!”
Maya gasps “Prepare the cold bath for Crown Prince! And His Highness asked to summon the man named Alex at once! He asked me to tell you that it’s a dire situation!”
Jonathan listens to her patiently and bows with a sincere nod “At once, Your Highness! Can this servant ask where His Highness is resting now?”.
Maya speaks pointing the sick chamber “The chamber.. Where Prince Xavier is”.
In front of nervous Maya, Jonathan seemed more relaxed and focused. He bows “This servant understands, Your Highness! Then, this servant will be leaving”.
Saying so he leaves the place hurriedly.
Maya sighs relaxed as she finds Jonathan’s patience making her nervousness to lessen a bit.
Maya tells Bhommi in her mind ‘Follow him. See whatever he is doing secretively to help him’.
Bhommi nods “Yes, Sister Maya!”
THUD!
Maya turns to see everyone kneeled as soon as they realized they forgot to greet their Queen. She rolls her eyes and mumbles “It feels like it’s been a long long time since being treated like this!”.
She smiles sweetly to the extent which almost hurt her cheeks and waves her hand to signal them to stand.
“At least they remember that I am still their Queen… Haa! It feels great to see them greet me like this again!”
She turns back happily and sighs “It’s good to have many people around too!”
For some reason, she felt like a new strength emerging in her and turns again towards the soldiers. She just want to be there for few moments. She was so exhausted of that evil shadow! Humans’ presence itself is heartwarming sometimes!
The soldiers “…”
The soldiers were previously shocked to find their Queen there out of the blue. What shocked them even more was she came all the way running there instead of sending a servant to call Jonathan.
The most unexpected thing they encountered was her bright smile towards them and a naive hand gesture to make them stand. Even though her act were not so elegant, her natural and adorable smile brought peace to them in this serious situation.
Finally, when they tried to leave to save the others, Maya suddenly turned towards them making them to freeze in their positions again!
Maya looks around the several soldiers standing still as if waiting for her orders. She walks ahead towards them and asks looking everyone “Were you hurt?”
A man steps forward and bows “Not much, Your Highness!”
She notices his bruised face and asks baffled by his cool response “Do you say this is not much, Sir?”
The soldier looks back instantly as if searching someone “..” Sir? Who?
The other soldiers too looks each other sneakily hearing her.
Maya smiles worriedly looking everyone’s condition “Treat your serious wounds before helping others”.
“Yes, Your Highness!”
Everyone leaves contently after hearing her ‘order’. Who would not like a caring Queen anyway?
—–
Maya walks towards her chamber. She feels like it’s been ages since she visited her chamber. Seeing it’s already turned dark, she wanted to see Sarah and Celina too. She wants to check whether they are safe too.
“Maya!”
Maya smiles hearing Sarah’s horror filled gasp next to her. She attacks Maya with a tight hug and asks bursting in tears “Where were you?! I searched you everywhere! Why do you disappear again and again?!”
Maya rubs Sarah’s back warmly and speaks calmly “I was safe… with The Crown Prince”.
Even though she felt annoyed to utter the word ‘safe’ in a single sentence where it comes the word ‘The Crown Prince’, she didn’t forget that Kalki did made a tiny effort to save her. She might have collapsed previously but she heard the conversation between the shadow and Kalki. He guarded her from the snow crushing her.
Moreover, she couldn’t blame him completely for his behaviour.
She wonders ‘What would I do if my father appears in front of me like this one day? I would never even dare to raise a question unlike him! He did question the shadow even though he really loves his mother!’
With that thought she realizes, Sarah staring at her. She already freed herself from Maya’s embrace.
“You were with Our Crown Prince?!”
