Chapter 34: 34:Priya Heartful Confession

In the Baron’s bedroom quarters...

Priya moved gracefully, changing the sheets and tidying up the room. As head maid taking over her mother who served the previous generations it wasn’t her work to change the sheets but she took it upon herself.

As she changed the sheets, the past memories of her childhood flooded into her mind.

She was around 8 or perhaps 9 when she met Roland who was around 5 but at first glance, Roland had taken a liking to her calling her Big Sister.

Many reprimanded him but no matter he was adamant about calling her big sister. And he would burst into anger if anyone except her cleaned his room and clothes.

Their interactions grew and soon the day when Roland’s departure to the army arrived. It was a depressing day for her. Before leaving, Roland cried for a long time on his shoulders.

The sadness was overwhelming and his departure made her life bland, tasteless, and colourless.

Nevertheless, she persisted...

The reason...

It’s because Roland promised to return and marry her but so many things have happened and so much time passed.

They were finally united, but a large gap had yet to remain that seemed unlikely to be filled. Then, as her mind was elsewhere, lost in thoughts of recent events.

Unbeknownst to her, the door creaked open slightly, casting a sliver of light across the floor. A shadow darted in, causing Priya to startle. Before she could react, strong hands enveloped her, causing her to gasp in pain. She turned, ready to give a stern warning, only to find herself face-to-face with Roland.

Her heart raced as she saw the infatuated look in Roland’s eyes. His presence both unsettled and intrigued her, but memories of their recent meetings left a bitter taste in her mouth.

"My Lord," she managed to say in a hoarse voice.

Roland’s expression softened slightly and his gaze locked hers. "You were the one leaping into my arms earlier," he remarked with a playful smirk, stepping closer.

Priya took a step back and tried to escape.

"That was different, and you know it," she retorted, her tone firm yet tinged with uncertainty.

A flicker of hurt crossed Roland’s face, quickly masked by determination. "Is it?" he challenged gently, taking another step towards her. "You can’t deny there’s something between us."

Priya hesitated, torn between the attraction she felt and the reservations that held her back.

"My Lord, isn’t it you who avoided me first," she murmured as her eyes glared at Roland with a bit of resentment and anger.

He reached out tentatively, his hand hovering near her cheek. "I did but didn’t you shoved my advances."

"Are you really going to accept me now?"

"Yes!"Roland nodded.

Priya’s eyes reddened as she cried.

"I thought you hated me for rejecting you before."

"Priya, you know what I always wanted but wasn’t it you want to break my mother’s last wish and then I didn’t want to behave like a scum and betray Janet secondly...’’

Roland’s eyes Priya, with an inexplicable, "Isn’t it you who pushed me to this marriage.."

Hearing this, Priya felt a stabbing pain. Roland had given her many signs previously that she wanted to marry her but she didn’t dare to expect too much.

As a maid, she can’t take the main position and stain Roland’s honour. Naturally, Roland didn’t want to push and force her which resulted in this.

"But sometimes, you have to follow your heart."

She closed her eyes briefly, conflicted emotions swirling within her. "I...I.."

"Lord, what—" Priya began, but her words were cut off as he leaned in, his lips capturing hers in a passionate kiss. She gasped in surprise but melted into the kiss, her hands instinctively finding their way around his neck.

Their kiss deepened, a rush of emotions flooding through Priya. She felt Roland’s arms wrap around her waist, pulling her closer, their bodies pressed together in a tender embrace. Time seemed to stand still as they shared this moment of intimacy, their hearts beating as one.

When they finally pulled apart, Priya’s cheeks were flushed, her breath coming in soft gasps. Roland gazed at her with a mixture of adoration and longing, his fingers gently brushing a strand of hair from her face.

Priya’s heart raced as Roland’s hand lingered on her cheek, his touch sending a shiver down her spine. The air between them felt charged, electric, and she could barely breathe as his eyes locked onto hers. She had always wanted this and dreamed of it happening.

And now, here he was, standing so close she could feel the heat radiating from his body.

"I’ve wanted to do that for so long," Roland confessed softly, his voice filled with sincerity.

Priya met his gaze, her own eyes shimmering with unspoken feelings. "I... I didn’t expect my dreams to come true.."

Tears welled up in her heart.

Roland smiled gently, his thumb caressing her cheek. "I know," he murmured. "But I couldn’t resist anymore."

"Also,Janet had given me permission."

And then Roland took the final step.
