I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Chapter 653

In the capital, inside the palace, on a remote tower, Alina, who was missed by countless people, lived here.

Since returning to the palace, she has spent most of the past year here. Except for going out to study related courses, she really spent most of her time in a daze in the tower.

She completely understood the feeling of a bird in a cage. She had never longed for freedom so much, and she wanted to reach out and touch the sun in the sky.

There were no weapons in the room. In addition to the books for study, there were only some decorative paintings. The number of servants coming here was also kept to a minimum. Except for delivering meals and cleaning, no one would come here at other times.

Moreover, they were all given a death order not to talk to Alina, which prevented her from getting outside news from the servants.

As Elena had guessed at the beginning, none of the letters sent by Xiaoyue to her were delivered. Basically, they all went to the knights in charge of guarding. After reading the content, they tore it up directly and would not say a word to Alina.

As for Elina's initiative to write a letter, she was not allowed to do such a thing. Her daily time was filled with various courses, and she only had a little time to rest at night.

There were no weapons in the room, and Elina couldn't hold a weapon to kill time. At most, she could only do some exercise in the room.

But even if she did exercise, her outfit was not suitable for activities.

Her golden hair was tied into an exquisite princess braid, and she wore a gorgeous long dress, which made her look dignified and elegant from her previous heroic appearance.

She has been trained as a real princess. She can't use force or swear. She can only use specific etiquette when speaking. It can be said that her personality has been completely wiped out.

All the indulgence she had in the past has now backfired on her. No one will be willing to listen to her advice or agree to her request.

Sitting by the window and looking outside, the night view full of stars is very beautiful, but it can't relieve the loneliness in Elina's heart at all.

"Hey~ How are Elena and the others now?"

A year has passed. If Elena said she wasn't curious about Elena and the others' current situation, that would be a lie. No one cared about them more than she did.

After looking at the night sky for a while, Elena quickly lost interest and went back to the house to pick up a piece of white paper hidden by the bed.

There was a portrait of Elena on it. After learning the skill of painting, Elena secretly drew such a picture one night.

Elena in the painting was somewhat beautified, her delicate appearance was diluted, and the male part was magnified. The Elena in the portrait can be said to be quite handsome.

Seeing this familiar face, Elena's face couldn't help but turn red, and her lower abdomen was hot. She recalled the night a year ago.

It was a bit too passionate but also too unforgettable. Until now, Elena still can't forget Elena's humiliated and blushing look.

I have to say that I am used to Elena's usual strong look. It is strange to see Elena showing that humiliated expression. Elena has opened the door to a new world.

It has been a year since Elena revealed her little secret, but it is almost time. Her father, His Royal Highness the King, has been actively discussing marriage with other countries recently.

It may not take long for the engagement to be unilaterally decided. At that time, Elena will be professionally appraised by magic props, and some of her experiences will be directly exposed. It can be said that no privacy will be left for her.

Elena is naturally very reluctant, but she has no way to resist. After all, her willfulness was satisfied too many times when she was young. Now she has completely failed and has no right to speak.

His Royal Highness the King will not consider her ideas again. At most, he will find her a good marriage partner, so that she will not suffer pure suffering if she marries.

Elena was very irritated when she thought of this. No matter what, she didn't want to get married. Marrying a man she was not familiar with was probably difficult for anyone to accept.

Elina thought she would be completely relieved after satisfying her last willful act, but after swallowing the forbidden fruit, she became even more eager.

She dreamed of Elena more than once at night, dreaming of that night, wanting to be with her again.

Thinking of this, Elina couldn't control herself anymore. She took off her long skirt and retreated into her quilt, moving her hands around in the quilt without knowing what she was doing.

After a long time, Elina looked at the ceiling with a dazed look on her face. There was not much satisfaction on her face, but on the contrary, the feeling in her heartThe desire was magnified.

The gap between the portrait and the real person was still too big. Now she really wanted to talk to Elena. Even if there was no way to have close contact, just talking would be enough to satisfy her heart.

Squeak~!

Elena was still reminiscing about the past, but the door was suddenly opened.

She was so scared that she hurriedly pulled her quilt. She didn't want others to see her ugly appearance at the moment.

She hurriedly looked at the door and saw a black figure standing there. It was a black-haired woman in a maid outfit, with her hands on her belly and squinting her eyes with an indifferent expression.

This temperament reminded Elena of Elena. She was so cold before she got to know Elena, but after getting along carefully, it was not difficult to find that Elena was actually a person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

But the maid in front of her was different. Even though she had the same black hair as Xiaoyue, her personality was really as cold as ice.

For the past year, Elina has lived under the management of this maid. She never said anything extra to her. Every word she said was like an instruction, clear but without any extra emotion.

Even though they have been together for a year, Elina doesn't even know her name, and it's impossible to get along with her.

"Your Highness, your fiancé has been confirmed. The engagement ceremony will be held in a week. Please be prepared."

As soon as she came in, she brought Elina shocking news like thunder. The thing she was worried about really happened. The palace didn't intend to give her too much psychological preparation.

"I know... I know."

Elina took a deep breath and wanted to object, but she had done too many similar actions in the past year, and it had no effect at all. She had no choice but to accept this tragic fact.

"And... you are about to have a fiancé, please be more restrained in that regard."

However, the maid said more today. After passing the message, she was willing to add one more sentence, but the content of her words made Elina a little embarrassed, and her face turned red.

I never expected that this black-haired maid had such a keen sense. Her little action was discovered even though her eyes didn't seem to be open.
