Chapter 254: Opera House

The royal carriage of the King of Megaris was waiting for Seren at the exit of the residence. Once Seren came out of the residence building, she saw Drayce was standing next to the carriage and he was talking to Slayer. She hadn\'t seen him since the previous night and seeing him suddenly, she felt as if her breath was stuck in her chest. She exhaled through her mouth and inhaled deeply to calm herself.

Drayce sensed her presence and turned to look at her while Slayer stepped away and went towards his horse. The moment their eyes met, Seren felt her heart skipping a bit and for reasons unknown to her, she felt her entire body shiver under his gaze. She had never felt this way with him but things were changing and she didn\'t know what was happening with her.

Drayce continued to look at her as she continued to walk towards him with her slow and steady steps while the servants didn\'t follow her. On the way, she felt like her knees were losing their strength and she might collapse.

\'Why is he staring at me? He makes me feel nervous.\'

She continued walking and once she reached there, Drayce offered her a light smile. She pulled out a light smile as well though under her veil, whether she smiled or not, no one could see.

Drayce offered her his hand, "Shall we, my Queen?"

Seren nodded and accepted his hand. She stepped onto the small stool and climbed into the carriage as Drayce helped her. Once she was settled, Drayce stepped inside as well and sat opposite her.

The carriage moved as only four knights accompanied it. Slayer and Azer were ahead of the Royal Carriage while the other two knights were riding behind it.

Inside the carriage, Seren tried her best to be calm in Drayce\'s presence where he could closely observe her movements.

Drayce could see she was feeling nervous and spoke, "My Queen, you can relax. It\'s just an opera house we are going to."

Seren nodded lightly and looked outside the carriage which was moving out of the palace. Once they reached outside the palace and rode on the city roads, Seren observed outside. It was evening and all the shops and businesses were getting closed. Those who saw the Royal Carriage immediately bowed to it and no one dared to look at who was sitting inside. She had not stepped out of the palace to know the city. The last time she saw it was when she arrived in the capital for the first time, it was night too, and couldn\'t get to see anything closely.

\'I wonder how this city looks closely during the day,\' just as she thought, she heard Drayce, "My Queen, I will soon take you out to visit the city."

Seren looked at him surprisingly, \'Can he read my thoughts now?\'

"I had planned to but after staying away from the kingdom for months, I had so many things to deal with that are related to the kingdom and can not be neglected," Drayce explained.

"I understand, Your Majesty," Seren assured politely.

There was complete silence inside the carriage till they reached the Opera House. Seren was unusually calm and Drayce didn\'t know how to communicate with her and make her feel at ease. He was not familiar with how to deal with women as it was his first time letting any woman step into his life other than his mother. He preferred to give her time and let things take their course on their own.

The carriage stopped in front of one nice-looking piece of architecture that indicated what this structure was meant for. Drayce helped Seren to step out of the Carriage after he stepped out first.

One man wearing noble-looking clothes immediately came towards them and bowed, "Greetings, Your Majesty, King and Queen of Megaris. This Opera House is blessed to have you here."

Drayce accepted the greetings with a slight nod while Seren looked at the unique structure of the Opera House. At the top of the square-shaped structure, it had a dome-shaped structure that was made up of glass. The entire building had glasses fixed everywhere that made it shine with the multiple lamps around.

The man said, "This way, Your Majesty," and walked ahead.

Drayce looked at Seren who was busy admiring the building structure even in the night, "My Queen, it will look even better from inside of the Opera house."

Seren stopped looking around and realized it was time for them to go inside. She walked along with Drayce as the knights followed them. The man from the opera house stopped in front of the huge wooden door and opened it for the King and the Queen to enter.

"Your Majesty, please step inside."

Drayce looked at Seren as he walked and she followed him. Once they reached inside the man led their way further through the corridor while the knights stayed outside, to guard it as no one was allowed inside the Opera House when the King and the Queen of Megaris were the guests.

They reached one more door where the man opened it for them but didn\'t enter inside. He simply bowed, "Your Majesty, I hope you would like the play," and closed the door once Drayce and Seren stepped inside.

Once the door was closed, Seren looked around and it was a huge hall with a stage at one side which was brightened up with numerous lamps that looked as clear as it was the day. Comfortable cushioned chairs were arranged in ascending order from the stage in a semicircular pattern. It was similar to what she had seen in the Opera house in Abetha but it looked grand.

When she was busy observing, Drayce had taken out his outer robe and hung it on the wooden stand as he saw his Queen observing everything. Seren walked ahead and then realized there was glass in front of her which was parting the entire hall from where she was standing.

\'Seems like this part of the hall is reserved for the Royal\'s only. Though it was separate in the Abetha too, they didn\'t have a glass wall in front,\' she felt puzzled.

Drayce stood behind her and said, "My Queen, let me help you remove your coat," and moved his hands towards her shoulder.

While her sight still fixed ahead, Seren let him remove her coat.

The moment Drayce removed the coat, his sight paused at Seren\'s back. Her dress was deep V- neck and with her hair tied at the back of her head, he could see the half of her slender backbone visible through her delicate skin. The dress even had a wide neckline that ended up at the end of her shoulders, letting him take a nice view of her neck to shoulders. The one who had chosen this dress for her was sure planning to make him go crazy for his wife.

Dear readers, as I had informed before, tomorrow I am traveling back to my home after so many months to celebrate the festival with my family. It is 12hr long journey so there might not be a chapter. As I promised, from 4th onward, there will be more chapters and even a mass release. Thank you for understanding my situation.
