Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 194

Chapter 194 A king to many

The next morning, William was gone again before she had the chance to wake. It seemed that no matter how early she aimed for, he was always ahead of her. Part of her wondered if he even slept at all.

Doris dressed for the day and left the tent as soon as she could. A small flicker of worry always entered her mind when she woke up alone. It didn’t leave her until she caught sight of William across the camp speaking with Patrick about something that looked rather intense. William’s skin looked dark under his eyes. She wanted to pull him back in the tent and let him sleep all of his worries away but she knew his mind would never let him rest. William glanced up as if he felt her watching him and she swore a ghost of a smile touched his lips before he turned away.

“How is our boy doing this morning?” Enzo asked from behind her. It made her almost flinch out of her skin. “Oh, my. I didn’t expect you there.” She breathed. “I don’t think he’s doing well. I’m trying to give him as much space as he needs, but I’m worried about him.”

“Hmm.” Enzo seated himself on a low log and patted the space next to him. Doris slumped down on the seat and tried to keep her eyes off of William for more than a moment. “I think you’re right to let him have his space. He came up to me earlier and spoke like nothing had happened and when I tried to ask if he was well, he left right in the middle of my sentence.” Enzo frowned. “Honestly, it was rather rude but also expected.” “He tends to avoid his feelings.” Doris picked at her nails nervously. “But I wish he wouldn’t bury them so deep. He doesn’t look like himself at all.”

You’re always right but he needs to come to that decision on his own. If we try to push him, he might only push back. I don’t want him to disappear more inside himself like you said.” “I know he feels regret for how things went. I know he wants to undo what has already be done, but he can’t have this war continue because he feels this way. He will only pile on more regret if he lets this continue for another moment.” Doris ran her fingers through her hair. “We need to talk to him, Enzo.” Enzo stared at her for a
