"Find Emperor Kyro!" 706Please respect copyright.PENANAxl7Dzo1gEx
706Please respect copyright.PENANA0UlPIkHrwa
A chill ran through their spines the moment they heard the Grand Marshall yell of help. It made them shudder as a freezing cold wind would wake someone, blood ran cold and a bead of sweat dripped down their faces, They bolted and scattered, not one guard would dare sit there helpless not acknowledging of what to do, they rushed excessively scared to even recall.706Please respect copyright.PENANAvKOiMmQSrm
706Please respect copyright.PENANAzcNbqkI2mq
"If you don't find the king, none of you will be able to find your families!"706Please respect copyright.PENANAkW622ptqZI
706Please respect copyright.PENANAxmHeI1E3EA
The shouting was fury within the air, a way to take the anger from the Grand Marshall and transfer the tension in all of the guards. He didn't just raise his voice, his muscles tensed and he got mightily in close for maximum impact. After that they would give in, discovering the left behinds of the fur that laid unknowingly near one of the passage ways.706Please respect copyright.PENANAEpAPy7w4vZ
706Please respect copyright.PENANAPMJecKJOXn
Their greasy, graying skin split like tree bark. Wiry black hairs sprouted. Their once kindly colored eyes melted into a heavier, more ruddy color. Their bones maneuvered under his skin like mechanical snakes; audible cracks sliced through the guards. Each shifted into a scruffy hairy beast. 706Please respect copyright.PENANAfWAWGEeOsM
706Please respect copyright.PENANAElAkBOBtNi
Their bodies managed to spike filled hairs, noses swiveled into snouts, mouths ajar and snarled with huge canines, their clothes ripped into several pieces thinned out with their tensed spines, Claws as long and enormous enough to shed some blood, their hands pivoted into roughed patches of lathered paws.706Please respect copyright.PENANAlUVQRwjgAE
706Please respect copyright.PENANAWENVvWx5JP
They were no ordinary packs of guards, they were a pack of humanely wolves. Each bared their canines at each other, snarling.706Please respect copyright.PENANA5TOIF92HA6
706Please respect copyright.PENANAtyreB31yyz
Ahead of them, posed a high mighty Alpha, thickened fur filled with inkiness, paws bigger than the rest of the wolves, hair raised within its back, and a piece of its ear sliced, the snout embezzled with scars. A day, had passed since the king hadn't returned since the storm had given a roaring violent weather. 706Please respect copyright.PENANALUBrIU20qc
706Please respect copyright.PENANAOgCJjJBcAa
Amid the starlight, the ever glow of the moon, that mother of the sky whom spectated over every beating heart, steady and true, They awaited their orders, hoping that as night had fallen, will their intentions run wild.
**
The egg yolk sun poured through the cracks in the blind and awaited entrance into my eyes. Sight still in the clutches of the night's glue, I hesitantly rubbed the dreams away. Thoughts of the visions in sleep come and go in waves, clinging on to the very last memory of the night but with a bit of success. 706Please respect copyright.PENANAFoUg5iYmnf
706Please respect copyright.PENANA8sAuZldLSv
Endeavor and Beau accompanied by the edges of the bed, as the maidens cleaned the dirt spots bequeathed onto the floor.
Upon waking, I burrowed myself into the warm, soft sheets. I rubbed the remainders of sleep from my eyes and gazed out at the horizon; its vivid light extended across a rosy sky. I supposed this was something the majority of people would consider beautiful, but I found it strange, hard even, to find something so meaningful in something so every-day. It's not like the sun wouldn't rise, it had, after all, been reliably happening since the beginning of time.
"Your majesty, the Emperor had told me, it is time for you to undergo some breakfast with the emperor once again."706Please respect copyright.PENANAkpLIcJg8go
706Please respect copyright.PENANAn9Pu4vLPG2
Beau had mentioned before clutching the sheets within her hands and pulling it down leisurely, I rolled my head a bit to gaze up towards Beau and Endeavor. perking upright, my hair drooping onto my shoulders.
I face to the left where Beau had stood, but as I rub my eyes to take away the blurred vision of tiredness. I nodded, before inching myself to the edge of the bed, where the maidens had taken their time, getting me prepared for the breakfast.706Please respect copyright.PENANAdjtGLdJXFy
706Please respect copyright.PENANAR1CyAyhBKw
I stood tall whilst my back straightened, I wore the tightened creamy sheets of the silk dress that slipped onto my shoulders, peppering my body with soft, sensual kisses. Like a lover, it seduced the senses and conveyed with utmost skill the art of pleasing.706Please respect copyright.PENANANQqi3W3cwm
706Please respect copyright.PENANAsayHYZHUN6
my hair, irked back with a slim bun curled within its bottom, The maidens rendered their best to persuade on prepping me with makeup, but to my liking, I insisted I had stayed as a natural beauty.
"You look beautiful, your majesty"
uttered Endeavor, smiling, I could've said I envision myself as the same person, but it would lose some of my confidence.706Please respect copyright.PENANA2RD9XNqZgS
706Please respect copyright.PENANATpxqKOlmO0
I gave a subtle sigh, where I had smiled, yet the smile is the prettiest thing I've done in a while, for it extends to my eyes and deep within my soul. 706Please respect copyright.PENANAWmvYNxLbwW
706Please respect copyright.PENANAxmgQTda0Z0
A knock came, and the door had suddenly swung open, there stood a man that I had either despised nor loved, The figure perked and revealed itself other than hiding behind the gigantic doors. 706Please respect copyright.PENANANsN7s2wInb
706Please respect copyright.PENANAvkguH0tSJx
"You look lovely as always, Empress."706Please respect copyright.PENANA5slj65MsqM
706Please respect copyright.PENANAh0K3vfWOjZ
His voice hushed against his throat, as if he was hiding his enduring compliments within his folds, I observed his boots tapping against the pavement of the floor, his grimaced face, even when he approaches me, I could feel the subtle hatred protruding out of him.
I gawked an eye to him, where he approached me close as ever, then as his figure had towered before me, another figure stood within its way, Lady Ophelia perched by the door way, her smile, the brightest whilst within the room.706Please respect copyright.PENANAgn9LSEgrPK
706Please respect copyright.PENANAIGr21G8u1m
"Lady Ophelia, Emperor Eros."706Please respect copyright.PENANABvp7KTQFZS
706Please respect copyright.PENANAleaGMQYIwJ
I muttered, I glared upwards towards his icy blue eyes, then towards Lady Ophelia's life like amethyst eyes. I could see, their smug expressions hidden away from a mask.
He contorted his lips into an faked, toothy smile, but his cheeks were not so compromising. He could feel their reluctance to be moulded falsely. When I finally averted my gazed his smile fell lifeless, allowing his face to return to its usual cold hard gawk.
"You finally took into consideration of my taste."706Please respect copyright.PENANAd9NqHlgSdt
706Please respect copyright.PENANAXwOqSdLkW3
"Of course, I had, It would be a waste to not wear such a beautiful gown given by your highness."706Please respect copyright.PENANANm6a4cNIuQ
706Please respect copyright.PENANAHigZosMLlh
I bluntly said to him, before his same old faked toothy smile, gleamed from around his face, he pulled out a box from the pockets of his tunic, hiding inside of it, an emerald-like jewel, sacredly resting onto a soft covered cushion.706Please respect copyright.PENANAMwXc2XEfLF
706Please respect copyright.PENANAdu59J9sDBh
"How considerate of you."706Please respect copyright.PENANALpXJnX5b44
706Please respect copyright.PENANApxjP3jmwRn
"It was a gift of Lady Ophelia's, she considered giving it to you with the handle of tenancy."706Please respect copyright.PENANAqeH68h1w0M
706Please respect copyright.PENANAoR6A7dAx6A
He stated, continuing to flash his unruly smile.
I peeked from over his shoulder to figure Lady Ophelia, with the same gleaming facial expression she had whilst entering the room, She proceeded perched at the door, her intentions to discover me take the necklace.706Please respect copyright.PENANAtN6pgkZoV8
706Please respect copyright.PENANAf0tS5WX53e
"I see, I'll take it."706Please respect copyright.PENANAT6LM3jvVuD
706Please respect copyright.PENANAu7cepl7Pbq
I mentioned before, he presses the box against the counter leaving it to rest there.706Please respect copyright.PENANALK1C07WWCG
706Please respect copyright.PENANAfjfeOCjgpm
"Fair enough, I'll see you during breakfast, Hera."706Please respect copyright.PENANAp1tAMcdyOy
706Please respect copyright.PENANAIJlcam4qUD
As i approach the small cushioned box, I focus onto the Emperor before he had left with Lady Ophelia, wrapping his arms around her shoulders.706Please respect copyright.PENANAffYojW94rx
706Please respect copyright.PENANA0MM0QqWRHN
Had I listened to it correctly? Why had he suddenly uttered my name? He had never done that before, yet to address me as Hera, we hadn't addressed each other of our first names since we were young ins.

The moment I slide into my chair I'm served an enormous platter of food. Eggs, ham, piles of fried potatoes. A tureen of fruit sits in ice to keep it chilled. The basket of rolls they set before me would keep me filled. Then, There's an elegant glass of orange juice.
"You're wearing the necklace."706Please respect copyright.PENANAMUUOfSTqvr
"I am, since it would be quite of a waste to not use it as a gift from Lady Ophelia, and the Emperor to the Empress."706Please respect copyright.PENANAcPmqb6df2s
"I see."706Please respect copyright.PENANA7k6IDUuDgC
I gingerly cut a fried potatoes and placed the oily chunk in my mouth, with each nibble I took, His eyes traced around my hands.
Yet, from the back of my mind, I couldn't erase the worried expression, The weariness I received every time I think of that wolf, and from the bearing manner from the Emperor, gave a sudden mein of curiosity.706Please respect copyright.PENANA0KKakOO2ux
706Please respect copyright.PENANAKSXZYqhttt
"Empress, are you alright? Lately you had spaced out from every call I have given to you."706Please respect copyright.PENANAReDcRKEoEO
706Please respect copyright.PENANASrad70Tpis
He gently stabs his fork within the scrambled eggs that were left onto his platter, Then he munched it up with his mouth opening every time he chewed, treating me to a view of the partially masticated eggs. Then he gulped it down and without pausing to breathe he took another swinging bite at the scrambled eggs.706Please respect copyright.PENANAKWD29YsaMN
706Please respect copyright.PENANAewpaX9a1a6
I snapped out of it, and focus into reality.706Please respect copyright.PENANAyBsGqUrZWH
706Please respect copyright.PENANAMO7gupVPeg
"Ah, Yes."
I stated, before hovering a napkin to my lips, wiping it down.
Each bite I had gulped down within my throat, reminds me of the gashed wound from the wolf, and from those thoughts, I proceeded reflecting within the back of my mind if that wild dog still living, or if they had detected the wolf within the brush I hid him away from.706Please respect copyright.PENANAOS3kkRBPwt
706Please respect copyright.PENANAYlPQmHEYOu
I impel the platter back a bit, as it gently scrapes across the table.706Please respect copyright.PENANAwZsWIIgqVW
706Please respect copyright.PENANAyDOmhaYMt3
"Why are you not eating, the rest of the breakfast, prepared for you from the butler and maidens?" 706Please respect copyright.PENANAtEVr72zJe0
706Please respect copyright.PENANAhCWcDhieN4
The Emperor leered up at me from his plate, wholly abolished of almost endearingly terminated food. I peered up at him, where my eyes encountered his, in his eyes I could catch he was concerned, for my well-being.706Please respect copyright.PENANA7zdFw6L4Ig
A lump caught within my throat, where I couldn't inhale the sweet sensational aroma of the food, without the aroma of blood stained within my senses. The lies over my lips, molded a fake smile, hoping that his mien of oddity was convincing him, I emerge as perfectly fine. I smiled, something within him felt wrong, a little crook over my mouth, driving from deep inside your soul, as a secret never to be spouted.706Please respect copyright.PENANAa5CazhZV1Y
706Please respect copyright.PENANAiNU29UYbT8
"I began feeling bloated, I'll be excusing myself."
Within the half-light of the morning, striding away from the dinette, to where I looked like a shadow, hunched over, turning into a small dot then disappearing within the Emperor's sight, but this time It was my excuse to vamoose, and where the Emperor planted himself onto his cushioned chair, he viewed me depart from him, without uttering a word.706Please respect copyright.PENANAkZZxAtEL9i
706Please respect copyright.PENANA6VrrTqLUDF
"Would you like more, your majesty?"706Please respect copyright.PENANANQuGv5lzIn
questioned one of the butlers, the Emperor held his hand up, ceasing the butler from adding anymore to his platter, he shook his head before erecting himself from his cushioned seat, where he stood upend like a somewhat fool.706Please respect copyright.PENANAty6GPHJxrM
706Please respect copyright.PENANAuAb4uL0Hdc
"I'll be excusing myself also, I had finished the lasting breakfast from the platter the chef had given me."706Please respect copyright.PENANAzYVrPWBZtS
**706Please respect copyright.PENANA1NtGgiFy5c
I had yet to make it to the end of the hallways, where I had met the endearingly Endeavor and Beau, situating themselves side by side forging a pathway, their smiles stretched from ear to ear.706Please respect copyright.PENANAtoKr0EVW4w
706Please respect copyright.PENANAmjL9g7Qg1k
"Welcome back your highness."706Please respect copyright.PENANAot0KM2Eib0
706Please respect copyright.PENANAxrAsCZooaP
Endeavor uttered, as her and Beau's faithful bow had straightened their back, perching into a 90 degree angle, I returned the subtle bow before plopping onto one of the cushioned sofa, that nestled against the embroiled doubled doors near the roman bath.706Please respect copyright.PENANAsJhakaYVTc
706Please respect copyright.PENANA61I2fDpETx
"How was the evening breakfast with the Emperor?"706Please respect copyright.PENANANvL3Irq30W
"Quiet, it was better than I had presumed."
I press my hands against the scalp of my hair, massaging it, as a figure approached me, with a sack of small little desserts that sweetened the aroma around my senses, the sweetened smell coated the stinging wound's aroma.706Please respect copyright.PENANAprNlrlHhwf
706Please respect copyright.PENANAfuzOPvisKe
"One of the Maidens had said they made overly enough for them, and they knew how much you like swell done cookies."706Please respect copyright.PENANA0xP7GhhesQ
706Please respect copyright.PENANAQU5krM3QCi
She clasps the petite sack of cookies into my hand, as I untie the bow on top of the sack, out came bursting the most freshest scent that filled the whole bedroom, I picked one out, and bit into it, gulping it down as I felt the warmth of chocolate nestle onto the tip of my tongue. 706Please respect copyright.PENANAUy5iYFXw7G
706Please respect copyright.PENANAoAVPU6x14e
"These are ravishly delicious."706Please respect copyright.PENANAPQdTCh6DEA
706Please respect copyright.PENANAIWiU5EUxcR
I declared, and then a simple idea had traveled within my mind, Whilst gawking an eye out the window, hoping within the brush the wolf had still been there resting, I should feed it with these freshened baked cookies, I stuff the sack of cookies within my gown.706Please respect copyright.PENANAHFWh7eB0ab
706Please respect copyright.PENANA49BChaTebZ
"I'll save these delicious cookies for later, Say, Beau, had the rain ceased?"706Please respect copyright.PENANAWOkNKrs6Jt
She heeded, viewing outside the window, compressing both of her hands together gently, then facing towards me, where she inadvertently shrugged with a smile etching within her lips, and from my perspective, I could envision it genuine.706Please respect copyright.PENANATlYMNwJnDD
706Please respect copyright.PENANAUJJ6pO0SMp
"Your majesty, I don't believe it will be raining any time soon, the day appears preferably prepossessing, why had you inquired?"706Please respect copyright.PENANAG5B1u7GVa2
706Please respect copyright.PENANAIESx7JflVa
I shook my head, as my eyes trail up to hers, crinkled within my smile that gleamed back towards hers.706Please respect copyright.PENANAA4hzLUDu2m
706Please respect copyright.PENANARPUl0iCezQ
"I was wondering."706Please respect copyright.PENANAXSi8EguD3u
