BXBX NOVEL Chapter 292 - A Reason To Be Happy
At three months from Roselyn\'s pregnancy, her bump was more visible, she had begun to practice every day to get stronger even if her wings had never appeared since the battle day.
William was still quite sad about Ethan\'s death but in his honor, he started to visit the orphanage every once in a while to make the kids gift and tell them about Ethan. He also promised the village that he would help the family who adopted the kids by entrusting any amount of money under their custody so that they would be more motivated to adopt.
Abigail and Victor\'s son had grown, even more, he met few kids in Kratez and got fried with them.
Then they moved to Kratez so that they didn\'t have to hide anymore from humans and Abigail was closer to Roselyn.
Abigail even visited her once a week and asked her how she was, she learned how to control her powers so perfectly that she barely paid attention to Roselyn\'s human scent when she was near her.
John stopped to train to stay near to Roselyn and they were spending their days as a perfect couple would do, in peace and harmony, enjoying the little moments they shared.
Roselyn rested her head on John\'s shoulder, while he caressed her bump gently.
.He leaned over it and placed a kiss on the top of her bump.
Roselyn smiled, "William will visit the orphanage soon I was thinking of going with him today."
"It sounds like a good idea," John replied returning a huge smile.
So Roselyn stood up and went to change her clothes into a more comfortable dress, which hid more her bump not to create any scandal in the village since they wanted to keep their pregnancy secret.
"You look splendid!" John commented as he traveled his gaze on Roselyn\'s new dress, he looked at her as if she saw her for the first time. His eyes sparkled and a hinted smile curved his lips.
"I have the most beautiful and the most powerful wife in the entire world," John whispered as he wrapped a hand around her hips and walked her to the door. A carriage was waiting for her outside which would lead her to the Castle to meet William.
John waved to his wife still smiling as he stared at the carriage take off.
He couldn\'t still believe that they made it and they finally were having a peaceful joyful time together.
The carriage stopped in front of the castle, William walked out and stepped on the carriage.
"Good morning, Rose. I am glad you wanted to join me in my visit to the orphanage today." William said smiling and removing a hair she had on her face by caressing her cheek
"Thank you. You had an amazing idea to push people to adopt kids by offering them money for the maintenance." Roselyn commented, she was honest with him.
She understood why John was so close to William, it was because he was a good person and his heart was precious and compassionate.
When William stepped out of the carriage so many kids ran to hug him just like if he was a normal visitor but William didn\'t seem to mind their not so well manners, on the contrary, he hugged them, and from the huge sack he was holding he slipped out toys of every kind and distributed those to each one of them.
The kid looked at him in admiration, their face was a bit dirty and their eyes were bloated as if they had been crying or lacking sleep.
"You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen." A little girl pulled Roselyn\'s skirt to catch her attention but when Roselyn dropped her gaze to her the baby blushed and bent her head down.
"You\'re the future Queen aren\'t you?" she asked, her voice rang like the cutest melody, her golden blonde hair was tied in two short braids that fell on her shoulders.
"I am." Roselyn smiled as she kneeled, to look at the child straight in her eyes.
"You\'re beautiful as well. Love your green emerald eyes." Roselyn said, allowing the little girl to lift her head and smile.
"Thank you." She replied her voice was still shy yet quite shrill.
"What is your name?" Roselyn asked as she wrapped her arms around the child\'s hips whole William handed the little girl a toy and she thanked him.
She admired it with joy and then hugged the toy as she swayed her hips slightly.
Her gaze traveled back to Roselyn.
"My name is Felicity which means happiness and joy in Latin." She replied as she stared at the soft toy. "My mom gave it to me so when I feel sad I always tell myself: you have to live up to the name so I find a reason to be happy."
Roselyn chuckled, "that\'s a smart gesture. So what\'s your reason to be happy today?" She asked lifting her eyebrow.
The little girl played with her brand by curling it around her finger as she looked up to Rose.
"The future Queen of Scotland called me a beautiful girl. That will be the reason for the entire year because this is a very big thing."
Roselyn suffocated a laugh as she smiled hugely, "I agree."
"Let\'s get inside, it\'s a cold out here." The tutor said and all the kids politely walked inside. They spread in the hall to play with the toys they got while William walked closer to Rose.
"They are so precious, they don\'t deserve to be abandoned. It hurts to think Ethan was abandoned too but he didn\'t even have the luck to get inside a structure like this since he spent his youth in the woods." William sighed, his eyes filled with tears for some instant as he probably felt guilty and sorry for Ethan\'s problematic and complicated past.
Roselyn offered a supportive gaze as she caressed his shoulder, "you can\'t go back in time but you can always learn from your mistakes and your gesture of today shows you\'re doing it."
