The voice of footsteps came one after another as svanhilder paced hurriedly around the room.his eyes red from anger,fear and confusion.
_the emperor is coming why is he coming_
He broke another vase on the table in anger.
_Why the hell is he a consort in some fu-king empire he doesn't want that he wants to go back to his parents who will spoil him and dote on him he doesn't evven know how the hell did he get in this body everyday someone will remind him to go to a festival with concubines that's nearly fifteen, now that pervert of a emperor is coming to see him,dare he lay single finger on me i won't care even if i die_
"Aaahhh-"tears streamed down his face he holded back his cry and looked at the glass in his feet.
"that pervert must be thinking bad of me" svanhilder now cried freely, his red eyes now soaked with a mist.
"that fu-king empero--"
The big door opened from outside as a man walked in and the maids closed the door from outside.

As the emperor reached the chambers of consert svanhildr, he ordered the servants to open the door of his room as soon as the he entered he heard such words against him,then he glanced at the whole room which was in a mess ansd the son of Marquis morrhos it's in between our his foot bleeding, his treat streaked face red looking at him in a daze.
"why did you make this chamber a trash can? Van~"
"and what with you throwing temper the first week you arrived here"
Saying that the emperor begin to close the distance between them,approaching him with that predatory look in his .
"you do know that you, yourself served me just to beg for that lowly lover that you have.so a emperor, me, Orpheus xemalia, is that low in your eyes that a lowly little thing like that can catch your attention but this husband who gave you everything can't even attend a festival with you"
He grabbed the chin of struggling svanhildr who can't get away because his foot is injured.svanhilder hit the chest of the man so he can push him away but there was no chance that he could defeat a emperor in physical power.he didn't succeed.instead or made the emperor group his chin painfully tight. svanhilder didn't about anything, he was too confused and blurted out.
"lover or you, i dont want anyone leave me alone. I don't want to talk to anyone. Get the hell out of here, get the hell out, out out!"
"you have became very daring Hn,that innocent face of yours, really deceived me if hasn't known better i would have choosed the wrong empress, now there is no need to think you will be bound to.. Just like you said # snatch whatever refuses to come to you #"
Svanhildr's eyes widened. The tears was were from physical pain streamed down when the pain source became heart.in his daze the emperor scooped him up and headed to his chambers ordering servants to clean consert svanhildr's chamber.Orpheus throwed him on his bed and left.
That was when he realised something was wrong with the emperor.
He tried to open the door but as expected it won't even Buzz.he would have attended the festival if it was not a sacrificial one. The original owner was used to festival like this but wantedto diehe.... Never in the drama of god.
ΔΔΔ~~~
The night arrived he didn't want to with that ba:tard so he waited but no one came eventually exhuasted he slept. We woke with the sound of voices around him this time it was his attendants walking him to get ready for the festival he refuse but the pricing glance that the emperor have him waking into the room made him flinch.he immediately swallowed the rest of the words.the maids dressed him up and immediately handed him to the emperor who had matching outfit with me that was when i recalled what he said yesterday but it was too late the emperor was already holding the hands with him. There was no chance he could run away or plan anything.
But what he did not expect was that the emperor announcing as his empress the first thing. The priest crowned him the crown so heavy that he thought of vomiting. The ceremonies of festival begin he was absent minded and didn't pay attention until screaming and cheers of people entered his ears.svanhildr didn't date to raise his hand and see the scene on before him but a voice than rang in his ears.
"look ahead. van"
Lifting his head making him see the the Cold Fire taking lives that no might not even know what is happening made him trembling he didn't want to look but the emperor hugged him as such so that he can do nothing but watch the blood curling scene of people cheering as lives of innocent got lost. He wanted to commit he wanted to faint burt he didn't work a pale face he watched. His eyes widened when someone familiar not to him
Was the next in line. Looking at him with a look of betrayal. When it came to his turn.something in me snapped loose.
"don't, don't.. Don't do this no noo,NOOOOOOOOO!!"
A hand covered my mouth and my shouts became useless. I cried like never before back his by the tightly.the emperor lifted my chin kissing me even when i refused and when he let go i saw
The familiar man in front of me pushed himself into the fire before even the knights pushed him he jumped himself.the cry of me were again blocked by the emperor who dragged to his room when i was released the screams from my cry covered the room for whole night no maid ,servant or anyone was allowed to go emperor's chambers that night so there was no one to save me.
ΔΔΔ~~~
the morning came but when it became night, i didn't know but when i woke up again there was no one i returned to my room and changed clothes, i haven't eaten since the 1 day of festival and now it's third, the food in Palace is good but i want to go outside and easy whatever delicacy they have. In conclusion he suffocates me i don't want to be under his gaze every hour.
so i got ready but the knights.. Stopped me
"your magesty, we apologize but his magesty had said that you are not allowed to go outside the palace without his permission"
they bored their heads but what can it do i am still here inside the palace.therage that was inside me since that night is now flared and i rushed towards his study the guards stopped me but i still bragged in.
I looked at that little head of my van was running in a anger to me i offered the officials to go out and the guards closed the doors.
"what made the empress to visit this emperor himself?"
Seeing the grin on his face the anger that was in the d depth of my heart ignited and i really that really made it worse.
"who do tough think of yourself the knights outside said i need your permission to leave everyone can freely leave but when or came to me i need your permission, am i a slave or your power pet me like that and even restricting my movement i don't care who you are the emperor, or the negative you would neverthat control over me"
My shoulders was grabbed by him and only then did i look at his grin face.
"van, are you outside the palace or are you married to your lover"
The breathing became heavy and i lowered my head.
"no, right. You. Are. My. Husband. And you can't go out without my permission or means what matters is what i want not get that inside your head"
He kissed my forhead as he relayed "now baby , you want to wander outside. What should i do what if you ran way what would happen to you after i found you and what if some wild man took you away how can you sure me that nothing will happen"
I cleanched my fists and repled " what. Do you want"
"now that my van, take and you can't remove it once it's worm i would know whatever you are and come before sunset. Hmm"
He warned me as his hands tied a beautiful necklace around my neck only beautiful and nothing else, just there to remind me that i am his and should understand my situation.
But it was enough at least i can go outside enjoy the food dresses and many more thing.
I wanted around aimlessly when i saw the commotion near a carriage. Everyone was afraid and only dated to look secretly.
There were knights around the carriage protecting our and some people who looked like outsider who were arguing.
"Young man it's not a place where you show your bravery this is xemalia empire and you dare to try release half of the slaves of sacrifice"
A girlbeside the young man spoke in ignorance "the behavior would Simon the wrath of the you better relieve everyone in there or no one would want a emperor who dost care about the the lives of there people"
But she waswrong this is kingdom xemalia and the festival sacrifice didn't just come out of nowhere it has been hundreds of years and the people would be happy to be sacrificed than live happily.for them the god would adopt those who sacrificed themselves as there disciple giving them a good life after reincarnation. So it was meaningless for them to even mention it. If they looked at the people around they would see disdain in them.
Even the slaves inside was scared but willing.
The bulky man beside the girl said "this evil emperor never have i ever saw such ruthless side that he showed was just for the him to only take on the weak"
But the young man remained quiet he must have noticed that there is something wrong but what do i have to do i slipped into one oF the restaurant ate my fill realising that the commotion had not subdued and they are still arguing the various was gone and a knight was there who subdued them and ready to left for the palace i remembered that the he was the captain of one unit it would be hassle to just walk i should just hitch the hoarse so i walked towards them.
As soon as the knight saw me he bowed while the there outsiders behind him stared the captain knew my identity but he will not reveal it for my safety.
"Can i ride with you all to the palace?"i asked politely the knight understood and quickly arranged a hoarse for me. We all got to the palace and i asked them
"who are these young ones?"
The captains eyebrows twitches as he thought
-you magesty you are only 18 years old to acting like this-
They disrespected the emperor so they would have to be sentenced so we were going to the emperor for there sentence.
"In that case i am going there they sold go with me right"
A warm smile spread as i suggested
