Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down

7 I don't want to lose my peaceful life April began her new life, there in that small house she felt happy, she found a small garden that was near the house, she dedicated herself to taking care of the garden that became her source of food since the day they had left her in that place the maids had not returned.

During the spring, April devoted herself to taking care of the garden, just as she did in the summer, and in the fall she gathered the fruit and prepared for the winter.

When the cold became annoying April stopped leaving her house, that was the first winter in which April did not hate winter, that year had hot food and a fire to keep warm, I wish all my winters were like this one.

Another year passed since April had married the prince, when spring came April turned seventeen, she had stopped being that little lanky girl she had always been and finally looked like a young 17 year old, she had had a slower growth since she had never had a proper diet, but two years ago she had begun to eat well and her body developed wonderfully.

April was sitting at the entrance of the small house, from there she could see the imposing towers of the castle, she was glad that they had sent her to that small house and not to one of those towers that rose towards the sky, she was deeply grateful because although they had forgotten about her, April did not feel that way, on the contrary, she felt that for the first time in her life she was living and not surviving as she had been doing all her life.

She looked up at the sky, it was clear and cloudless, it shone so beautifully that April wished she could see it every day.

The seasons passed, in the blink of an eye Two years passed, April was still living comfortably in that small house enjoying her day to day life, it was a beautiful spring day, April decided to go to the forest near her house to collect mushrooms, while she was walking through the forest she saw a man on the ground, immediately she hid behind a tree, she stared at the body that lay collapsed on the ground and if her eyesight did not fail her that man had blood on his clothes.

April looked around wondering if there were more people who could help that man, but there was no one besides her.

April approached very carefully.

That man was her husband, Alessandro.

She wondered why he was injured in such a remote part of the forest.

_ Could it be that they killed him? April wondered curiously, she put her head on her husband's chest to make sure his heart was still beating.

When she saw that he was still alive she tried to wake him up, she shook him, tapped his chest and when she saw that he didn't respond she hit him hard in the face, but he didn't even flinch, he was completely knocked out.

_ Wow, what do I do now? April wondered as she watched him, he was still bleeding, if she left him in that place he would most likely die and his peaceful life would end, with no other options April dragged him by the feet until she took him to her house since it was the closest one and she doubted she could drag him any further.

When they arrived at the house, Abril took off his clothes since they were full of mud and dirt and she didn't want him to dirty her bed.

Then she treated the wound on his stomach as best she could.

It didn't seem as deep as it had seemed at first.

Looking closely he realized that he had a blow to the head, perhaps that was what had knocked him out.

April covered him with a sheet after finishing checking that he had no more wounds, she stared at her husband for Wait a minute, he had a good body and a handsome face, however, he was not a good man.

She made tea and waited until he woke up.

Alessandro woke up with a severe headache.

He had gone out for a walk in the woods when someone surprised him, making a deep cut in his stomach and hitting him hard on the head without giving him the chance to defend himself.

He looked around, wondering where he was.

His gaze stopped on a beautiful young woman sleeping against his bed, Alessandro recognized her by her hair, that was his wife whom he had forgotten about.

He wondered what she was doing there, he was going to wake her up when she opened her eyes, stretched her arms and seeing that he was awake she asked him.

_Are you OK? _ Where are we? What are you doing here? _I met his majesty when he was taking a walk in the forest and I brought him with me.

_I don't believe you, were you the one who attacked me? _Why would I do that? _You are like your father, vile and despicable.

Here we go, again with the same thing.

April thought, she stood up, her legs were asleep, Alessandro had had a fever during the night, she had to lower it with a wet cloth, but in the end she had fallen asleep while doing it.

_If your majesty is well, you may go.

_ Where are we? _In the palace, where else could we be.

That house looked simple, Alessandro asked him.

_ Where exactly? _In the place that his majesty gave me to live, it was three years ago, I suppose his majesty has forgotten it.

_ What are you talking about? _It doesn't matter, if he can get up he can go.

When April began to walk away, Alessandro stood up, at that moment he noticed that he was completely naked, he asked her.

_ What have you done with my clothes? _It's true, I washed it because it was dirty, I'll bring it now.

_ That? Alessandro didn't know if it was because of the blow he had received on the head or if the princess was crazy, the idea of ​​a princess washing clothes was unthinkable.

April returned shortly after with Alessandro's clothes, the blood stains still remained, he told her.

_Call the servants to bring me clean clothes, I don't plan on wearing that.

_But if they are clean, it was only the blood stains that didn't go away.

_Stop talking nonsense and call the servants.

_Can't.

_ Why not? _There are no servants here.

- That?
