The lost queen

The Coronation

***********************************************************************************************

It's the time! Today, everything will change. From today, I, Sofia the uncrowned princess of Bulgaria, will become the queen of Austria.

Mariella: How are you feeling today, your majesty?

She was helping me to put on my coronation gown. I thought for a second but eventually answered.

Me: I feel like a queen!

She giggled.

Me: What?

I laughed. She just gave me that look "Nothing". She laughed.

Petra and Ana rushed into the room.

Petra: Your majesty! We can not find your tiara!

Ana: It is supposed to be in the room with royal jewellery, but it's not there!

Mariella pointed to my crown which was standing on the tabled. They both sighed.

Me: Just relax, ladies! This is the last day I am wearing this tiara. Next time you see me, I will be wearing a real crown.

Petra: You sound like a little girl who can not wait to become a princess.

Me: I mean, aren't we all just kinds at the end?

They all smiled. We heard a knock at the door.

Mariella: Come in.

Nicolas came in.

Nicolas: Can I have a moment?

All three of them: Sure!

They went out and closed the door behind them. Nicolas was looking at me the whole time. I was turned back from him, but a big mirror was standing in front of me so I saw him. He smiled and turned me around.

Nicolas: You look beautiful.

Me: Yeah, in this old dress. But thank you.

Nicolas: It looks nice on you.

I blushed. He waited for a couple of seconds before he continued.

Nicolas: How are you feeling? Are you nervous?

Me: Well, I am kinda nervous, but I feel amazing.

Nicolas: Did you learn your coronation oath?

Me: Yes. It wasn't so hard.

Nicolas: That's because you remember so fast.

We smiled. We were silent for a few seconds. He came closer and gave me a gentle kiss.

Me: What was that for?

Nicolas: For good luck.

And silence again.

Nicolas: I love you...

I was quiet for a moment.

Me: I love you too...

And we kissed again, but now kiss was more passionate.

Mariella: Um... your majesty? I am sorry for disturbing, but we have to go to church.

We quickly split apart.

Me: Okay, I am ready.

Nicolas gave me a warm smile and left.

Mariella: What was that about?

I just smiled at her. She smiled back.

At the church...

I was standing in front of the church door with Petra and Ana behind me. I was nervous and so many thoughts passed through my mind. I just need to calm down, everything will be okay. Petra put her hand on my shoulder and I turned back. They both smiled at me and I smiled back. We heard the door opening and archbishop gave me a sigh that I can come with him.

As we were approaching thrones I saw so many people around me. Next to the throne were Nicolas and his mother, also few priests and so many people were sitting. It's like a wedding, but more intense. When we arrived at the throne archbishop turned to me.

Archbishop: Madam, is your majesty willing to take the oath?

Me: I am willing.

Archbishop: Will you solemnly promise and swear to govern the Peoples of Austria and your possessions and the other territories to any of them or pertaining, according to their respective laws and customs?

Me: I solemnly promise so to do.

Archbishop: Will you to your power cause Law and Justice, in Mercy, to be executed in all your judgements?

Me: I will.

Archbishop: Will you to the utmost of your power maintain the Laws of God and the true profession of the Gospel? Will you to the utmost of your power maintain in Austria the Protestant Reformed Religion established by law? Will you maintain and preserve inviolably the settlement of the Church of Austria, and the doctrine, worship, discipline, and government thereof, as by law established in Austria? And will you preserve unto the Bishops and Clergy of Austria, and to the Churches there committed to their charge, all such rights and privileges, as by law do or shall appertain to them or any of them?

Me: I will.

I bowed down and he put the crown on my head. Then I stood up and then put the orb in my left hand and a sceptre in my right hand.

Archbishop: Please, everyone, I present you your new queen, Crowed Queen Sofia of Tyrol. Everyone, greet your new queen.

He bowed down and I turned to people and everyone bowed down in front of me. I felt like I had all the power in this world in me. I felt so powerful and confident. I turned back and sat on the throne and Nicolas sat on the throne next to mine. Archbishop took orb and sceptre. Nicolas smiled at me and took my hand. He came closer and whispered...

Nicolas: Now, you are my queen...

This is the last part of The lost queen. I hope you all liked it.

Thank you so much for over 1oo reads.

I have in plan to write like a second season of The lost queen and it's going to be called A new dynasty. It's definitely not going to be soon, because I have a lack of inspiration as you can see from a few last parts I wrote. Sorry that this part is so short, but this is it, this is Sofia's story.

Thank you again for reading this story and if you have any recommendations for the second season I would appreciate your ideas.

See you in the next story...
