"Find Emperor Kyro!" 480Please respect copyright.PENANA86qtE706KX
480Please respect copyright.PENANA3AJMoEMfPI
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAELQJZlQgHG
480Please respect copyright.PENANAcspvWxreGO
"If you don't find the king, none of you will be able to find your families!"480Please respect copyright.PENANAP4hdUJUTKy
480Please respect copyright.PENANA6bThKTP4tT
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAQrRN4YqW5y
480Please respect copyright.PENANAyQEUzZ7HU9
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANA5qFi1lPYbA
480Please respect copyright.PENANAagxaygm5U8
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAmcdXgDaw1I
480Please respect copyright.PENANA01cXMgWMGT
They were no ordinary packs of guards, they were a pack of humanely wolves. Each bared their canines at each other, snarling.480Please respect copyright.PENANAVYu316Hb7M
480Please respect copyright.PENANAr5GWRmFyYc
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANA2YG6EepemF
480Please respect copyright.PENANAyF4CRzzSfu
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAzRNu8MMe8X
480Please respect copyright.PENANAEbpnsYeygJ
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."480Please respect copyright.PENANA6K4pTXZoro
480Please respect copyright.PENANAgaFsUajt2w
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAAGLjOKnvkX
480Please respect copyright.PENANAloILacpvqJ
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAEUrv5XCttU
480Please respect copyright.PENANAvVHhsUqVOc
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAC12gYscMOp
480Please respect copyright.PENANAr1kN9ruUil
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAiB0A7YZIJq
480Please respect copyright.PENANAAaI3vHxXJl
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAYOKnUr00E4
480Please respect copyright.PENANA5UT0l278iU
"You look lovely as always, Empress."480Please respect copyright.PENANAtQvzqoyB7e
480Please respect copyright.PENANA6ug3qocMoM
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAahypQ8tyLN
480Please respect copyright.PENANAKJzZhdCX7B
"Lady Ophelia, Emperor Eros."480Please respect copyright.PENANAD2RRVYNNIq
480Please respect copyright.PENANAkXLXeu6RnE
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."480Please respect copyright.PENANAlLupEhRLSk
480Please respect copyright.PENANAmLDdiA7aff
"Of course, I had, It would be a waste to not wear such a beautiful gown given by your highness."480Please respect copyright.PENANA39e5fgQQ23
480Please respect copyright.PENANAlLX68colTr
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANATlqnDcrdTh
480Please respect copyright.PENANAHgIMvd5HE9
"How considerate of you."480Please respect copyright.PENANAaeAvfRmmKc
480Please respect copyright.PENANAJF1usk0AR7
"It was a gift of Lady Ophelia's, she considered giving it to you with the handle of tenancy."480Please respect copyright.PENANAVWi4Rb6DKH
480Please respect copyright.PENANAAp6kYaxNHF
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANA6RTYSFPC4X
480Please respect copyright.PENANAxrDCVYp2ik
"I see, I'll take it."480Please respect copyright.PENANA8IS7ODjq4F
480Please respect copyright.PENANAdYX3UMysAT
I mentioned before, he presses the box against the counter leaving it to rest there.480Please respect copyright.PENANAcw9Roz2prc
480Please respect copyright.PENANAWu47ww8y9E
"Fair enough, I'll see you during breakfast, Hera."480Please respect copyright.PENANA5ymLhYrr7o
480Please respect copyright.PENANAg6LkYDUjip
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANALnNslqaw10
480Please respect copyright.PENANADBG6vMQguZ
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."480Please respect copyright.PENANArRSlDSblon
"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."480Please respect copyright.PENANAVihbm2DHJw
"I see."480Please respect copyright.PENANALCDSnJcTli
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAIMGBOGbuh7
480Please respect copyright.PENANAsfHgJzhg6Q
"Empress, are you alright? Lately you had spaced out from every call I have given to you."480Please respect copyright.PENANA38otRVXdw9
480Please respect copyright.PENANAe7MxTdDdW4
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAtcqEXbwEKI
480Please respect copyright.PENANAM7Rj9jiBcW
I snapped out of it, and focus into reality.480Please respect copyright.PENANALu0E0v9HY9
480Please respect copyright.PENANAfkL33xBTAJ
"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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAivI91HW1Bb
480Please respect copyright.PENANAy8PmrgGfI5
I impel the platter back a bit, as it gently scrapes across the table.480Please respect copyright.PENANAvDfBCXEiiR
480Please respect copyright.PENANA1gIWUH6fm7
"Why are you not eating, the rest of the breakfast, prepared for you from the butler and maidens?" 480Please respect copyright.PENANAvZEp22qGY4
480Please respect copyright.PENANA6gBrdRvKne
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANA3nEu7MYL5V
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANARkdaEcKIqs
480Please respect copyright.PENANAhI6VIhlHiU
"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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAcHSJohvfNN
480Please respect copyright.PENANA0RNSMRu1Z7
"Would you like more, your majesty?"480Please respect copyright.PENANAFUM64LtnQi
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAP51a4jQ4ko
480Please respect copyright.PENANAtVPLTbkdW2
"I'll be excusing myself also, I had finished the lasting breakfast from the platter the chef had given me."480Please respect copyright.PENANAZPVmOP9NSV
**480Please respect copyright.PENANA2iASmp89C1
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANApKcCvDnd7D
480Please respect copyright.PENANAOuXRybAdN3
"Welcome back your highness."480Please respect copyright.PENANAK3N7az63i7
480Please respect copyright.PENANAPvmhKPz2O8
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAhhhoVU9S8K
480Please respect copyright.PENANAdbxyy98X47
"How was the evening breakfast with the Emperor?"480Please respect copyright.PENANAMohWthcFzN
"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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAHeGrhqfb3g
480Please respect copyright.PENANAaGJ9BXDe6m
"One of the Maidens had said they made overly enough for them, and they knew how much you like swell done cookies."480Please respect copyright.PENANA7XcoTtpqwj
480Please respect copyright.PENANAQL17eXXycA
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAXVji9CNNa9
480Please respect copyright.PENANAmXb1rwyLGh
"These are ravishly delicious."480Please respect copyright.PENANABF3JRkwtx0
480Please respect copyright.PENANAX18orP4iSr
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAK5c1SQMUBa
480Please respect copyright.PENANAD29vhN2Qv3
"I'll save these delicious cookies for later, Say, Beau, had the rain ceased?"480Please respect copyright.PENANABxxlludqWu
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAfQBaFDh2J7
480Please respect copyright.PENANAiqado7Oo0h
"Your majesty, I don't believe it will be raining any time soon, the day appears preferably prepossessing, why had you inquired?"480Please respect copyright.PENANAinBcskY2FR
480Please respect copyright.PENANAsqrqzHxBOX
I shook my head, as my eyes trail up to hers, crinkled within my smile that gleamed back towards hers.480Please respect copyright.PENANAhzFV9t1TMs
480Please respect copyright.PENANAmgCgC5oNPP
"I was wondering."480Please respect copyright.PENANAuyoUkC7XRk
