The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress

Chapter 56: Sigrid wants to adopt Emmah.

Roland looked at their intertwined hands, he did not feel like letting go but this was Sigrid Thorin. How could he hold her hand and not feel bugs crawling all over his skin?

He dropped her hand and cleared his throat, he readied himself for her to grab his hand and try to get cozy with him. Unexpectedly, she did not attempt to touch him, she took a step away from the pillar and sat down on the enchanted marble floor.

In all of Eldoria only two places had such floors, the royal castle and estate of mages, they shimmered and changed colors basing on the time of day. There was a rumor that every carpet in the royal castle was enchanted as well but it had not been proven.

Roland folded his right hand and unfolded it, it almost felt as if something was amiss. He found himself thinking that it was not so bad holding Sigrid’s hand. He had never held the hands of a woman before except for a few occasions on balls and also not directly without a glove and not for long.

Sigrid’s hand was not gloved and he could hold it without screams of scandal or arousing misguided notions in a potential eager doe eyed noble young lady hoping he would marry her the next day.

He moved and sat down next to her, looking out at swans swimming in the moat. It was much quieter over here than the hunting grounds.

"Shouldn’t you be getting back to your party and sick guest?" She asked him.

He scoffed, "I thought you did not want me around her, you were quite firm in your objection of her becoming my secondary wife."

Sigrid picked up a stone, she tossed it up and down, catching it in her hands skillfully with every throw. Then, she threw it in the moat, startling the swans that honked and hissed furiously even though the stone had landed a big distance away from them.
