The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 567

Chapter 567: UNINVITED GUEST

I gasped once I saw the Queen standing in the middle of the room.

I hurriedly let go of Nanny Nia and Nanny Nia herself turned around.

"Jasmine what’s the problem-

She didn’t finish her sentence.

When she was the Queen herself she went mute.

We both quickly curtseyed.

"Good morning your majesty." We greeted in unison our eyes downcast.

"Good morning." She said in her usual kind and hearty voice. "You may rise."

We slowly rose up to look at her.

The Queen was dressed in a peach-colored dress, the soft shade brightening her pale skin and making the red in her hair catch the light.

The gown was simple yet elegant, fitted at the waist with a thin embroidered belt, the skirts flowing loosely around her as she moved.

A delicate brooch pinned at her shoulder added just a touch of gold, enough to remind any one of her rank without being ostentatious.

And most of all, her crown was dutifully on her hair.

A very simple and yet, elegant crown with different pieces of stones over her straight red hair.

The Queen despite her age still looked extremely beautiful.

"My apologies your majesty." I apologized at the messy room. "We hadn’t been expected you."

"It is I who should be sorry." The Queen said with a genuine smile. "Came without informing you. Xaden has said you would be here."

She approached and I could tell the uncertainty and then disbelief in her eyes.

"Good heavens Jasmine." She gasped. "Did you dye your hair?"

I became flustered.

"Uh... er... your majesty." I managed.

She closed her mouth and her eyes seemed sad.

"Your hair was unique." She said. "Anyone in the royal family would kill to have that. Why did you change your beautiful color."

Before I could respond, my towel almost slipped.

I blushed in shame as my hands quickly caught it in time.

"I am so sorry." She said as she looked away. "You aren’t modest and I interrupted. I should leave you."

"No don’t go." I found myself saying before it was too late.

I pushed in my mother necklace well into my bosom.

She stopped and I went red unsure of what next my big mouth would say.

"I mean. If you’re here, it must be because you needed to speak to me." I explained.

She nodded. "Yes Jasmine I do need to speak to you."

That terrified me.

"Well if that’s the case then I think it would be more appropriate for me to come find you than having you come. I’m a slave." I expressed.

"And I’m the Queen." She said. "But that doesn’t make either of us less of more before the Goddess does it?"

I thought about it for a second.

"Perhaps?" I said uncertainly.

"How about we do it this way." She said. "I sit here and wait for you to get dressed, then we can talk."

I wasn’t sure how having the Queen wait for me was a good thing.

"Don’t worry I canceled my plans for the morning if you’re worried about me waisting my time." Queen Rose said as she found a seat and sat down.

I blinked and snapped back to reality.

The Queen was waiting for me.

I was keeping the Queen herself waiting.

"Of course your majesty." Nanny Nia spoke for me. "I would get her ready immediately."

The Queen smiled and Nanny Nia dragged me to the bath.

"Why is the Queen here?" I whispered once the door was shut.

My heart was beating so fast I believed it would jump right out of my chest.

Nanny Nia shrugged. "We don’t know yet. But we need to get you dressed."

And with that Nanny Nia went out of the bath.

My mind began to race through different scenarios.

Perhaps it was because she now wanted to change her mind and take away the immunity she had granted to me.

Or has Anna plotted one of her schemes and this time taken the Queen to her side?

So many things went through my mind.

Nanny Nia Returned holding a dress and hair brush.

She helped me put on a very simple but pretty blue dress, before making me seat on a chair and completely brushing out my hair.

I waited in anxiety as the Nanny Nia brushed through my newly raven colored hair.

"Take it easy Jasmine." Nanny Nia said reading my mind. "The Queen isn’t so bad. I’m sure she isn’t what you think. She is merely just here to see you."
