Chapter 96

96 A dance in the moonlight ​ ​ ​ Alessandro woke Abril up when it was time for dinner, they both went to the dining room, the duchess was alone.

_ Where are the children? April asked since she didn't see them anywhere.

_They are sleeping, they have been playing all afternoon running around the garden, they have fallen asleep, but please take a seat, dinner will be served soon.

Alessandro pulled out the chair for Abril to sit down.

The Duchess stared at them.

She had known the King for a long time, but this was the first time she had seen him being so kind and sweet to a woman.

During dinner she noticed how the king looked at his wife with immense and deep love.

Without a doubt, she had melted the king's cold and hard heart, making him kinder.

When she finished dinner, April didn't want to go back to her room.

She had been sleeping all afternoon so she wasn't sleepy enough to go to sleep.

She told Alessandro.

_We could go for a walk, I'm not sleepy.

Alessandro stood up, extended his hand towards Abril and said.

_Of course, if you'll excuse us, Duchess, we'll be leaving.

As they walked through the garden, April raised her gaze to the sky.

It was a beautiful night, the stars were shining brightly, as was the moon.

Alessandro squeezed her hand lightly and said.
