Alexia's pov It turns out it was a three hour drive from the hospital to the castle. During that time we ended up talking about what had happened in the past four months. My idiot self forgot that I'm going to marry him in six months. " what are you thinking about?" He ask his eyes shinning with curiosity " just about what's happening in six months" I say watching the snow fall down like tiny raindrops. " we can move the date if you want" he says with a smile " no I trust you and like you I just don't know what are relationship is our even could be." I say closing my eyes " right now I'm confused to. I know you think I know exactly what we are but I'm so unsure I know I love you. I just don't know what kind of love I have for you. " he says with a concentrated look almost like he's trying to figure out what's going on inside my head. After our little discussion the car went awkwardly silent. Luckily after half an hour we arrived at the castle. " home sweet home" I say with a smile walking toward the door, but before I could reach it I was pulled back by strong arms. " before you greet anyone I want you to go upstairs, and get dressed in proper clothes. Understand?" He asks looking me up and down with a scowl. I laugh " what do you think I was doing?" I ask a smile spreading across my face. He turns red and let's me go. I shake my head and open the door. I walk up the stairs mildly distracted trying to figure out my feelings for him. Do I love him Hell do I even like him. Yes a part of me screams. Maybe the other part of me says. I didn't even realize that I was in my room until I walked straight into the bed. " ow" I mumble rubbing my ankle which I hit up against the box springs. I shake my head and walk over to my closet. I pull the shirt over my head and instantly realize that the castle is colder than I thought. I shiver and look through my closet trying to find a warm dress so I don't freeze to death. I hear a light nock and throw the shirt back on. " Milady Crown I brought you a dress I realized you might not have anything appropriate for the season. May I come in?" She asks I can hear the curiosity dripping off her voice. " you may come in" I say turning to the door. She walks in with a long red and black dress. There's a red trim near the bottom and what looks like a business jacket on top.

I give her a questioning look and she smiles. " Lord Crown does not want many people seeing you today since you just woke up. He was hopping you'd accept his invention to spend the day with him. So he knows your safe and resting." She says cautiously " tell him that I accept his invitation" I say not looking at her as I move out of her sight. " after I help you get dressed lady crown" she says " no now is fine I can handle getting dressed" I snap at her I feel guilty but she didn't do what I asked. My handmaiden would have done what I told her without asking why. I hear the door shut so I move back to the middle of the room. I walk back over to the closet and pick out a pair of black kit heels. I strip and grab the thin white underdress and a pair of stockings. I grab my corset that's half tied. I easily finish tying my corset. I put on my petticoat. Then the bottom part of the dress after I tie the dress I put the middle part on then start to put the top part. I button it up right as the door opens and I'm engulfed in a hug. The figure steps back and I see my handmaiden standing there with a happy smile on her face. " I thought you weren't going to wake up and it was Hell in this castle without you talking to me" she says grabbing my hand and guiding me to the vanity. I sit down at the vanity and she starts doing my hair. After she's done I look at my reflection

My hair hangs in my natural curls with my hair styled like you would a headband. I smile at her " thank you" I say " your welcome Lady crown" she says " please call me Lexi" I say and a large Cheshire grin spreads across her face " alright Lexi let me help you get your shoes on" she says I get up and put on the shoes she buckles the shoes, and fixes the stockings. She stands up and grabs a black shall with red flowers on it. " here take this just incase you get cold" she says then takes my hand and leads me out the door. We walk down the stairs and into what looks like a library. I see Ezra sitting there he smiles before standing up and walking over to me. " how are you today my angel?" He asks with an amused look " I'm fine and I'm no angel" I say a light blush creeping onto my cheeks " you look pretty perfect to me" he says before placing a gentle kiss on my lips then walking away. My handmaiden had walked away when we came in so it was just us in the library. He turns to look at my stunned expression and smirks. " what would you like to do Lady crown" he says a smile adorning his perfect face " may we play a game of chess?" I ask with a smile he laughs " my father would like you" he states like it is a fact " and why might that be?" I ask curiosity playing in my voice " because it's one of his favorite games. He could never get me to play as a child I thought it was boring" he says watching my expression " maybe I could change your mind" I state he walk over to me and links his arm with mine " maybe you could" he says before guiding me to a room I recognize. Where have I seen this before. Then it hits me. This was the room I was in when Emily told me she was pregnant. I smile at the memory and the beautiful decorations and set up of the room. We walk over to a chess table near the fireplace. He sits down and we set up the game. " white goes first" he says teasingly I move my pawn one space and the game is on. Twenty minutes later and you can see the concentration on his face trying to find a move. Once he finally moves I move my piece and the game is over. " checkmate" I say with a smile he looks down and starts studying the board. " what how'd you do that?" He asks and I can't help but laugh. " skills" is all I say before bursting out laughing. " I won so I get to pick out the book we read." I say reminding him of the deal we made " okay angel pick out whatever book you want" he says. I stand up and walk over to the bookshelves on the one wall. I look around for a bit before finding one of my all time favorites pride and prejudice. I walk over and sit on the couch, and he soon joins me. He glances at the book before smiling " what?" I ask trying to figure out what's going on in his head " this is one of my favorites because it has a good plot, and good development in the characters" he says with a smile I lay my head on his shoulder as he starts to read. " It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." He began reading his voice like honey I moved a little closer and listen to every word he says until the very end of the book. I smile after he returns the book back to its resting place on the self. " you Lady Crown need to go to bed." He says in authoritative tone. I give him a coy smile as I make my way to the door " yes Lord Crown" I say before opening the door and heading to my room. Once in my room I undress and put on my nightgown. Then I lay down on my fluffy bed and drift of too sleep
