Silent dominated the whole room. No one is speaking and lucious is still in a kneeling position because the emperor did not yet give him a permission to stand. Both the emperor and lucious are enveloped of angry emotion, their heart is burning furiously, the same emotion but with a different reason. The emperor is angry because of the scene he witnessed while lucious is because of what the emperor is doing.

"how dare this emperor controll my life as if I belong to him! I miss my brothers, I miss my parents ! die die emperor ! you'll have a short painful life. " and thus lucious continue to curse the great emperor.

" that servant! I'll definitely make sure he disappear in this world.  what lucious dissatisfied with? why is he always with that servant? are they lovers? is he not satisfied with me?  Being wed with me and be an empress will grand him everything he wants! why does he look always annoyed when he is with me? " The emperor is also drowned by his own thoughts.

" your majesty do you have the intention to dismiss my kneeling position? my knee is hurting " Lucious can't take it anymore his knees are slowly dying.

The emperor is taken aback because he completely forgot. He is completely drowned to his own thoughts. The emperor let out a nervous cough before saying a word "you may stand"

Lucious slowly stand and sat on his bed while looking at the emperor,  emotionless. The emperor look at him and doesn't know what he should say. Actually the emperor want to apologize because of the late arrival and he even bought  a flower, remembering the flower he was holding the emperor took a glance at it but it is already ruined because of his strong grip on it. The petals are all over the place already.

The emperor is about to say something when a wind suddenly blows inside the room and the pink petals was blown exactly where lucious is sitting. The wind is not that strong but when it blows around Lucious together with pink petals it looks like a painting, a beautiful painting.

The long curly hair of lucious was also slightly blown, the petals and lucious hair dance together with the wind. Lucious on the other hand is still unfazed which made him look beautiful yet with a strong independent aura. Truly a scene to behold.

The breath of   the emperor suddenly stopped. His anger subsided completely, he didn't expect that the beauty he saw that night while lucious is sleeping would be completely different when he is awake. Even though both scene captivated him the appearance of lucious now is different, completely different.

" your majesty, why are you here?" suddenly lucious talked but the emperor is still drowned, this time not because of his thought but because we was completely stunned by lucious.

Lucious is waiting for the emperor's respond but nothing came out, the emperor was still looking at him which made him more irritated. He can't help but to roll his eyes at the emperor and this is where the emperor snapped back.

"Pardon my late arrival for visiting you, and as an apology i brought you a flower but it was completely ruined" The emperor put down the ruined flower on the table and walk towards lucious sitting beside him. But as soon as the emperor seated beside him lucious stand up and walk towards the table and suddenly make a tea and obviously this is intentional.

After making a tea, lucious offered it to the emperor and instead of sitting beside him he seated in a chair while facing the emperor he watch as the emperor sip his tea before talking.

"am I  being locked?"  The emperor suddenly stopped from drinking his tea because of lucious sudden question. but the emperor didn't answer this.

"How was your study? do you like your palace? " Instead of answering lucious question the emperor respond it with another question. Lucious face twitch and he could clearly find the answer to his question.

"your majesty ... I'm really lucky to be favored by you. I bet all of the women in your nation are all jealous and want to trade place with me " Lucious started with completely calm heart.

"How about you?" The emperor asked.

"To tell you the truth your highness and please excuse my rudeness. I'm completely ashamed " Because of Lucious statement the Emperor froze and almost choked by his own saliva. This man is truly fearless, The emperor thought. Saying these words especially in front of the emperor himself is wholeheartedly disrespecting the emperor even the whole royal family.

" I do not know what make you interested in me, I'm completely flabbergasted when you suddenly showed up and declaring that you want me to marry you. I did not even dream to marry a man even more the emperor. " After hearing this, the emperor became even more angry, obviously he was being shamed for the first time in his whole life.

" Lucious Althelstan, I've been tolerating you for so many times. Don't think that I could accept your further disrespecting " The emperor said with authoritative voice but Lucious remain calm.

wow is he angry ? i bet he is AHAHAHA Let's see how further he can tolerate me Lucious thought to himself.

Lucious suddenly yawn to himself and to make his acting more believable he even make his looks tired and look at the emperor.

"you see your majesty, All day I have been studying which I barely do in the past. I would really appreciate it if you'll excuse yourself " Lucious said with an innocent smile while looking directly to the emperor.

The emperor just let out a sigh and for a moment he didn't respond until he also respond with a smile. Lucious was stunned because that smiles clearly means something.

"Then let's go to sleep, I really came here to sleep with you" Lucious wanted to cuss and curse this emperor i front of him.

" your majesty, my bed is too small for to people to sleep in " But the emperor started to ready himself for bed slowly trying to remove his outher clothing.

Lucious was alarmed this is not his intention and definitely he doesn't want to sleep with the emperor. This become out of his control, the emperor is clearly toying with him!

" Why are still standing there? I though you're tired? " The emperor even pat his side multiple time that made Lucious even more annoyed and alarmed.

"y-your majesty! we still not married I-I don't think that it is rightful for us to spend a night together ! right ! it is not right! " Lucious hurriedly reasoned but the emperor didn't moved.

"It doesn't matter It'll happen anyway " The emperor said and still gesturing Lucious to come and lay beside him.

Lucious became helpless, he slowly love his feet taking steps slowly deliberately making his steps slow. When the emperor became impatient he pulled the pillow that made lucious scream!

"ahhhh ! Edel ! " The emperor suddenly stand in his two feet because of Lucious Scream. Lucious took the pillow away and suddenly hold something and hug it? but it's clearly nothing there.

"w-what ? why? " The emperor asked. Lucious looked at him as angrily which made the emperor even more clueless.

"you could kill Edel ! "  Lucious suddenly blurted out and even cuddle the thing in his hand while uttering 'hush hush' words.

"Edel? who's edel? there is nothin-" The emperor suddenly can't continue what he is about to say. He is about to pinpoint that there is nothing in his hand when suddenly and slowly an ugly creature appear in Lucious hand.

"w-what is that?! " The emperor can't believe what his precious person is holding. It looks like a lizard with a curved tail and its weird.

" hey! don't talk to edel like that he's sensitive "  Lucious even shake his arms to  comfort the little creature that change color.
