LOGINEmmelyn took the opportunity after Mars left to make a list of foods she liked. Apparently, she really had no other choice and had to stay in this castle until she gave birth to the three children. Fine. She just had to adapt.
With a wave of her hand, she ordered the servants to bring her a parchment and quill. However, it was only after she sat down with parchment and ink in front of her that Emmelyn realized she couldn't write because her right hand was still sore.
[Damn .. why did I turn stupid? I can't possibly write.]
Emmelyn was surprised at herself. Usually, she was very smart. But why did it seem like her brain refused to work this morning? She forgot that she couldn't use her right hand.
Then, how could she write the list of foods she liked?
Finally, she decided to come to the kitchen on her own and meet the cooks. Easier to just talk to them, right?
As soon as she stepped inside the kitchen that was located at the far end of the castle, several cooks who were chopping vegetables immediately came to greet her respectfully.
"Good morning, My Lady."
For a moment, Emmelyn was stunned. She used to go back and forth to this kitchen to get food for Prince Mars, and they never respected her, because she was just a lowly servant.
But ... now they were all very respectful. And ... it looked like they didn't recognize her.
Aha. Did this mean that nobody knew who she really was? This meant that yesterday when Emmelyn was detained by the guards for trying to kill Mars, the prince didn't tell anyone who she really was. Only the three bodyguards knew about her ...
Ahhh ... This made Emmelyn feel calmer. She would be ashamed if these servants and cooks found out that she was posing as a servant here for a month, before becoming the mother of the crown prince's future children.
The thought created a smile on Emmelyn's lips. She excitedly waved her hand and called the cooks to come over. Two men and a woman came to her and immediately listened to her words.
"The prince asked me to tell you all my favorite food," said the girl. The three of them nodded respectfully. "Can you read the list of food if I wrote them for you?"
They shook their heads in unison. Emmelyn sighed. She had guessed that none of these lowly servants could read. Luckily, she didn't bother writing down a list. It would have been a waste of time on her side.
"Alright .. then, how do you guys know how to make food that I like?" asked Emmelyn in a desperate tone. "I won't be able to teach you how to make them. I can't cook. I only know how to eat."
Emmelyn was better at using knives for knife-fighting than for cooking.
"My lady... it's okay. You just tell us what food do you like. We'll find out how to make them," said a fat male cook with oily face. Seeing this cook immediately reminded Emmelyn of a roasted pig. She was suddenly hungry.
"Hmm .. alright." Emmelyn took a chair and sat in the middle of the kitchen and told them the names of the dishes she liked. She mentioned one by one all the delicious food she had ever eaten in her life, including the typical Wintermere apple pie that her mother used to make.
Hmm ... just talking about all that good food made Emmelyn lick her lips.
After she finished, she asked the three cooks to make sure they understood everything she said. "Do you remember everything I told you?"
"Yes, My Lady. We do." They nodded with determined expressions. This impressed Emmelyn.
"Alright .. let's see if you guys will really be able to make the foods I like. I want the apple pie and pecan peanut cake, and roasted pig for dinner tonight."
The girl then came out of the kitchen and decided to take a walk around the castle.
As Mars had promised her, Emmelyn could do whatever she pleased while she was in the castle. Not a single soldier held her back.
However, as soon as the girl was about to step out of the gate ... Five guards appeared from nowhere and stopped her in her tracks.
Gosh .. It must mean that these guards had been shadowing her and made sure she wouldn't run away again.
Emmelyn remembered that she and Mars had signed an agreement that if she ran again she would be punished ...
Gulp. The punishment was to give birth to another child for every (failed) attempt to escape.
Crazy!
"Excuse me, My Lady. His Royal Highness Prince Mars said you can only exit this gate with his consent and if you are with him," said a soldier with a firm stance. "Please go back inside."
Emmelyn stomped her feet in annoyance then turned back to walk toward the castle.
Okay. She was just testing what kind of surveillance was being carried out on her. She was not that stupid to run away wearing a dress like this.

From the author:
Uwuu... I am sorry for not updating for two days. I was being under the weather this week. I don't know, everything ached. I feel like a grandma already... T_T
Psshh.. I am writing three chapters today. Expect to read 2 more chapters today to make up for yesterday. xx
"Uh ... you haven't answered my question, why did you ask the servants to move my things from my room?" Emmelyn asked before sipping her wine.Her hand, which was holding the wine glass and ready to drink, lowered back to the table and she crossed her arms over her chest.Mars shrugged. "What do you mean by 'your room '? You have no room in this castle. Before, you slept in the servants' quarter with the others."Emmelyn pursed her lips. "My room is ... uhm, I mean the room where you locked me up yesterday. I thought you gave that room to me. I'm going to give birth to your children ... and you have the heart to send me back to the servants' quarter???"Mars massaged his forehead. He didn't know if Emmelyn was really naive, or she just pretended not to know that starting today she would share a room with him since they'll... uhm, keep trying to make babies.He didn't know her enough yet to tell if Emmelyn was naive or pretended not to understand th
When Mars came home in the afternoon, he immediately went to his chamber to see Emmelyn, but he did not find the girl there."Where's Lady Emmelyn?" he asked the butler.The middle-aged man bowed down to Mars and answered. "Lady Emmelyn is sitting reading in her chamber.""HER chamber?" Mars frowned. Ahh ... he just remembered that after catching Emmelyn about to kill him yesterday, he ordered his bodyguards to lock up the girl in a room on the third floor.[Ha. She thought that was her chamber?]Mars crossed his arms across his chest and gave his butler's orders. "Bring Lady Emmelyn here and all her belongings. Starting today, she will stay in my chamber with me."The butler was stunned. He lifted his head and looked at Mars with an astonished face. He was one of the few people in this castle who knew who Emmelyn really was. Emmelyn bribed him three gold coins last month to place her as Prince Mars' personal servant.And it turned ou

Emmelyn had no choice but to obey Mars's words. Besides, she was also hungry, and she hated wasting good food just because she couldn't use her good hand. She opened her mouth and took a bite of meat from the fork the prince was holding.Mars nodded with satisfaction. He cut the meat on Emmelyn's plate into little pieces and fed her some more. After the girl finished the meat on her plate, he then gave her the fruit slices.Emmelyn ate heartily. It couldn't be denied that she had not tasted good food for a long time, so she would not miss the opportunity to enjoy all the food that was served in front of her.***Queen Elara was beaming when she heard reports from the informant she sent to the Crown Prince's castle."So ... they made love passionately last night, huh? What? Everyone in the castle could hear them? Wow! That's amazing! I know my son will not lack in that department," she chuckled and glanced at her husband in a knowing look.Th
Mars immediately ran from his troops and went to find the origin of the scream. He could guess that the sound must come from the girl who spent the night with him.His mind immediately became a mess. He thought something terrible had happened that made Emmelyn scream so hysterically.As soon as he arrived at the door of his chamber, Mars broke the door, thinking that a bad guy was about to kill the mother of his future children.BANG!"What happened? Where are the bad people?" asked Mars with alacrity.He had drawn his sword and immediately cast his gaze around the room. Not seeing anyone else there, he placed his sword on the table and approached Emmelyn, who was sitting on the bed with teary eyes."What happened?" he asked again anxiously.Emmelyn immediately pressed the blanket against her chest when she saw the prince's eyes glancing at her breasts that were exposed.[You pervert!]"I'm going to die!" snapped Emmelyn
WARNING:This chapter contains an explicit mature scene. Please read at your own discretion...That night, Mars slept very well, without the aid of any sleeping potion at all. He also didn't have any nightmares. It was the first time that he had a comfortable and peaceful sleep without interruption.He didn't know if he was "cured" of his curse or if his hard work in the previous night making love to Emmelyn made his body too tired that he just passed out. Whatever that was, he was happy. It was so good to have a nice sleep.When he woke up, he felt very refreshed. When he opened his eyes, Mars felt a soft and warm body lying in his arms. His mind went back to what happened last night, and a smile immediately adorned his lips.Emmelyn snuck her head to his chest while sleeping, and the girl had unwittingly wrapped her arms around Mars's stomach and hugged him tightly.Ahhh ... this position felt very comfortable, Mars thought
