Long live the King - Part II
Author’s notes: Well, someone else needed a better end in this situation. And someone else deserved to be stabbed in the heart.
Warnings: Major character’s death, mentions of blood.

Since you saved his life, prince Aethelred turned you into his personal servant. Nothing was made to your prince without passing through your fingers.
It was good because you were always near him, but it also placed you near his wife.
His despicable wife…
How many times you saw her gathering herbs for teas to make her womb more fertile…
“I must give him a son, a boy, soon! As soon as I can so he won’t be able to deny me my crown when the time comes!”
How many times you heard them into their marital room and went to yours, to pray God not to give her the baby she wanted so badly.
She wasn’t a good wife. All she wanted was poison his mind against King Alfred and for countless times you saw him sighing, annoyed or confused about his feelings towards his own brother because of her poisonous words.
