Guinevere & Lancelot AU: Sweet bliss

As she stepped over the threshold, she remembered Sister Marianne had told her she was not to step foot in the kitchens again, not after setting fire to her hair. The sweet maiden, Emily, tried to teach her once, but on one occasion she left the Queen alone for a moment and came back to find her mistress dipping her fingers in the boiling water to retrieve the eggs. After that she refused to carry on with their lessons. He never minded, of course. For their nine days of blissful ignorance, he ate everything she put in front of him with a delighted smile.

“I am still your Queen! I can behead you.“
A quick and sudden silence fell. The air grew heavy and she thought she might choke.
“My Queen, it took you half the morning to behead that chicken…"
