Beatrix did not think too much of that interaction throughout the day but when the night arrived, she received a gift from Crown Prince Andrew that she will never forget!
"His Highness send me a gift? What is it?" She happily asked the servant who delivered the gift.
He gave her a large golden plate with a matching golden covering. Her maid accepted it and set it down on her table. She thanked the servant and even rewarded him! She thought of her favorite dishes and her mouth started to water... Since Crown Prince Andrew gifted her this so this must be an exquisite dish! Her maid lifted the golden cover... Everyone paled especially her!
On the golden plate is a severed head of a person with eyes still open! The neck is still dripping fresh blood, soaking the golden plate, and now the blood is dripping on the table! Some maids vomited, others paled and trembled in fear while Beatrix fainted as she realized who is that severed head!
After that incident, she avoided men as much as possible to avoid causing the same harm to others! The incident silently spread and became a warning to the other men but it seems that temptation and disaster follow her like a stalker! The men who stared at her, their eyes were removed and sent to her in a jewelry box! The men who accidentally or deliberately show interest and admiration for her were decapitated and their head was placed inside a food container just like what happened to the poor newly hired guard! The men who accidentally or deliberately touched her, the part that touched her were cut off and sent to her inside a shoe or clothing box depending on its size! The men who are caught or heard saying lascivious words about her, all teeth are pulled out and the tongue was cut off and then sent to her in another exquisite small box!
At first, she became so afraid of personally checking his gifts for her. She often guesses whether it is the precious gifts or the unique gifts. She does not want to check it so she usually asked a maid to check it for her especially if her instinct told her that it is another unlucky person's body parts but he will personally visit her and tell her that the victim's family is already looking for that person and he will only let the body be found somewhere after she checked his gift! Due to a mixture of guilt and pity, she was forced to check his gifts one by one!
As time goes by, Beatrix became Empress and their relationship changed from sweet to sour, sour to salty, and salty becomes bitter! She no longer feels fear, pity, and disgust! She stopped wincing, vomiting, and fainting once she sees his unique gifts! This time, she retaliated by purchasing a large plain land near the capital and changing it into a cemetery to bury the victim's parts sent to her by her overly jealous yet unfaithful husband! It seems a natural thing to do but what is insane is... She named the cemetery The Empress' Harem and instructed her people to bury the body parts with a gravestone that has inscriptions including the victim's number in chronological order, name, birth date, death date, and a made-up title that is a male equivalent to a title of Emperor Andrew's existing concubine in the palace!
She knew that what she did is a kind of dumb thing to do and a pure slap to his imperial face and manly pride but she is itching to get back at him for being unfaithful to her yet he is expecting her to remain madly, deeply, highly, and totally in love and faithful to him?!! He wants her to close her eyes to what is truly happening?!!
Is he crazy?!! Come hell or high water!!! That is not going to happen!!!
She does not have any romantic or sexual relationship with those victims but because of her great anger, she felt gratified to slap the truth to his face that she could also create her harem!
Beatrix sighed helplessly after she recalled the incidents of her first lifetime. It testifies to the dark, cruel, ruthless, and dangerous nature of her former husband!
Just as how handsome his physical features are, it is also how ugly his inner sides are! He is very different from Anders and Zander! Anders had been a great husband but he miserably fell into his cruel trap in my fourth lifetime. He failed to protect his life and so he failed to protect me... Zander is also a great husband but I am afraid he is too emotional. His loving, kind, and sincere nature are what draws me to him but sadly, he will not last a day if he pissed the evil incarnate! Loving and marrying Andrew is truly my greatest mistake! A mistake that I paid dearly with my life several times...
She worriedly thought of Zander, praying in her heart that her current scholarly husband will not share the same fate with those poor men...
