The long lost princess

After waking up from her coma caused by him, he apologized to her and promised he will not hurt her that way again, she was stupid to think he will not hurt her at all, instead of trying to make it up to her somehow the man only ignored her, having other women instead, as if she was nothing but air, an invisible piece of furniture he added to his house, coming from an average family who worked under the Duke's command, she did not even dare to leave, knowing hell gates would be opened on her poor family, and also, she was afraid, after that night something inside her just broke, she became too frail to even take that decision, so she lived her role up, a nanny to the two boys who hated her, and a smiling doll in official occasions that stood by her husband side acting like the happy lady she was not, days were the same and she felt life slipping out of her slowly, was this her life? and is it always going to be this way?

Four years passed, the once living flower turned into a painted one, beautiful to look at but dead... nothing but a show and an appearance, to think the man who destroyed her life would be the one giving her a new one, she didn't know what to feel or think anymore...

It was the night where King Edard took the crown, as expected of her she prepared herself to look worthy of being the Duke's wife, a far relative of her husband, Mr. Renaldy made her a gown on duke's Salvatore's request, the beautiful light pink gown was something that dropped from her dreams, not wanting to ruin her natural beauty with heavy hair styling and make up, she kept her hair loosed and put it all on one side, wearing her diamond necklace to go with it, light color on her lips and that was it, admiring her reflection for a second on the mirror, she was this same girl four years ago before she married this man, this man who was standing now at the door looking at her with an expressionless face, he scared her, he didn't say or show anything but there was a weird atmosphere in the room, something she couldn't point out, lowering her gaze she stood to leave, giving her his back he walked in front of her then to the carriage, something in her heart squeezed, she really wanted him to tell her once, that he liked the way she looked...
