"Find Emperor Kyro!" 671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCqdZUtAT6

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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeHjMRQHxn

"If you don't find the king, none of you will be able to find your families!"671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBy084QPkQ
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2JIy0DPgS
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14nq5fksQ7

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. 671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEgR1RwPht
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0yFZ0rC0b
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EwRZgirZP
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMU4184iwa
They were no ordinary packs of guards, they were a pack of humanely wolves. Each bared their canines at each other, snarling.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkS9tdzoJbs
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBie5daJnMw
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. 671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdtmBu3wC2

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. 671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNGSoD1MA1
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2Ok42n0aJ
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."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iw14KhiL9
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gw0r3fPUc
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShHaUfvr0I
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAESCj4vK5
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehwneXVxmt
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2B5CyKbEap
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gqDYu6A0l
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz4O66RXDK
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. 671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SgPtGqixl
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM1BLmCDaF
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. 671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqndovFuK5
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgCyTEPspy
"You look lovely as always, Empress."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGd2fNdDLV

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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwKf4Ppyvc
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTaf3EYQ9L
"Lady Ophelia, Emperor Eros."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZTdubpR22
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3IImtn6Fs
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."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToGetfKuZL
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUA2loGG54
"Of course, I had, It would be a waste to not wear such a beautiful gown given by your highness."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yPDQ1gm1b
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawGK6ckslh
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKhAZqNOIf
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXwSuUcGR9
"How considerate of you."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6yyWhbZnY
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs1NfOgDE9
"It was a gift of Lady Ophelia's, she considered giving it to you with the handle of tenancy."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FDPSJSYCq
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfjucbX7HY
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HTCP0azkM
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AbzHU1nIm
"I see, I'll take it."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYtxzOhS5K
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVU8Wsj4fR
I mentioned before, he presses the box against the counter leaving it to rest there.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSYyONUAiy
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUa21ewp4f
"Fair enough, I'll see you during breakfast, Hera."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpfpiKymct
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtxaA2m4yf
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh7FTeWivk
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGD2H7ulLc
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."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoj79eLZre
"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."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFW5vbswmjA
"I see."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnIICkCwIg
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLO5vaCizNi
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyVfkxfY0f
"Empress, are you alright? Lately you had spaced out from every call I have given to you."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd2NR6YyAU
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd5YNHnLFn
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4sfKapFY1
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWL9Ct8RWwt
I snapped out of it, and focus into reality.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAwC3oMlqe
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6A09VOcbr
"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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ789msHNqxg
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9sUN2frLD
I impel the platter back a bit, as it gently scrapes across the table.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fFMNhKsZo

"Why are you not eating, the rest of the breakfast, prepared for you from the butler and maidens?" 671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD818DwRbl
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX41NrUAzUG
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwTIq8HGnU
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwZpQkntkN
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2ClU69oRu
"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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiC7bExgt6
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewr27PgVSs
"Would you like more, your majesty?"671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAHr1KQTL6
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvBI7gY8Vs
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQju2xZnbx
"I'll be excusing myself also, I had finished the lasting breakfast from the platter the chef had given me."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xCDNjYLBC
**671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC49e31J12I
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKCE7vUIBC
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeY4iGdSaHG

671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXCwMbGv6k
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTOQnumgSy
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnUbJXJzdj
"How was the evening breakfast with the Emperor?"671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXMH75WTcK
"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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU5NWfc43c

671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBYoHIjBDr
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. 671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9gnJ5CKiL
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDzUqNH3CW
"These are ravishly delicious."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTChHZB83K
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLtStieXQQ
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2FoPNTPvF
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGM8S9e3hsW
"I'll save these delicious cookies for later, Say, Beau, had the rain ceased?"671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcqqiX5zYN
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxY00rChqM
671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOuPbUoQDU
