Chapter 100: An untameable wife.

In the crown princess’s bedchamber, the warm glow of the fireplace was dancing on the wall, casting flickering shadows on the precious stone walls. Sigrid was standing in front of a mirror, her maids were helping her out of the gown she had worn to dinner.

"How many of your most handsome knights can I count on to make an appearance, they need to be measured for appealing outfits tomorrow?"

Roland did not think that there was a more disagreeable woman in all of Eldoria than his wife, she was incapable of being subdued when she made her mind up about something, like the scandalous bachelor’s auction bid which she was planning.

Lanai helped Sigrid into a night gown and stepped out, she sat in the chair in front of the mirror, brushing her long hair while Roland changed into a comfortable robe.

"Sigrid, I am still uncertain about this bachelor’s auction ball." His tone was filled with concern.

She walked to the bed and sat down in the middle, facing him with eyes that sparkled, filled with determination. "You are uncertain but I am certain. It is a wonderful idea and it will raise funds for the hungry people in the North. By the end of the end everyone will be drunk and merry, praising it as the best ball they have ever attended."

Roland sighed, climbing onto the bed and laying down face up next to her with his head propped on a pillow. His feet slowly danced as he imagined the scandalized nobles. "It will be an uproar Sigrid, auctioning off eligible bachelors, my God!!! It is rather scandalous."

"Everyone loves a good scandal." She climbed over his his body and sat down on his chest. A soft smile played on her lips as she looked at him. "We cannot throw a lavish ball so we might as well throw a fun one. When the young lords hear that women will be bidding money on them, they will be more than willing to participate in order to see how much they fetch in comparison to their competitors."

Roland furrowed his brow, obviously convinced still. "I think I need to have the fishwives and gossip talk with you again. My love, your unconventional gowns are already the subject of discussion, if you throw this ball, we might as well toss our reputations out of the window."

She shook her head, "Roland, we are facing and will face much bigger challenges in future, this is just just a party, you don’t need to overthink it."
