The next day, Emperor Lucius woke up and realized that he was now lying on the floor covered in carpets.
Emperor Lucius' hand was clenched firmly in view of what Aleyza had done to him.
It seems Aleyza gave him a sleeping potion to put him to sleep and didn't do that to him.
" Be careful of you Aleyza" said Emperor Lucius who immediately woke up and looked for his whereabouts throughout the room.
" ALEYZA WHERE YOU COME QUICKLY. WE MUST SPEAK NOW" said Emperor Lucius, who shouted, hoping that Aleyza could hear his voice and approach him.
But unfortunately for a few minutes of waiting there was absolutely no sign Aleyza would approach him. Emperor Lucius' growing anger just as he came out of Aleyza's room to approach his son's room. He must have been there.
Brakes...
Emperor Lucius opened the door of his room loudly. When entering into Emperor Lucius did not find the whereabouts of Aleyza or his four children there was only Xavier who was still lying on the bed.
Xavier, hearing the sound of the door opening loudly, woke him up and saw Emperor Lucius in front of him with a cold expression and a strong aura. Makes Xavier a little scared.
Seeing that Xavier had woken up, Emperor Lucius approached to inquire about the whereabouts of his four children.
" Where are your four brothers Prince Xavier?" asked Emperor Lucius in a cold tone.
The relationship between Emperor Lucius and Xavier was not very good. Hence the reason that Emperor Lucius rarely gave him any attention except that in public and Consort Agnessia.
Xavier who heard it only fell silent before then replied in a flat tone.
" I don't know, the last time we slept together" replied Xavier.
" I forgive you Queen thank you for giving your affection. Even if it's just a moment, hopefully we can meet again Elrick and Adriana" said Xavier sadly.
Because honestly when Queen Aleyza with her children. Xavier hears the Queen's reason for not taking him and she excuses him because he was brought along. Surely Concubine Agnessia would tell the whole empire bad news under the pretext of the Queen abducting a child.
...****************...
Aleyza was now standing on the balcony looking at the warm atmosphere when the morning sunlight hit her face.
Suddenly Aleyza felt a pair of burly hands hugging her waist before being passed by someone's voice.
" Do you like this place?" duke Regulus Riddle asked as he placed his head on the top of Aleyza's head as his hands continued to tightly hug her.
Aleyza who was comfortable with the Duke Regulus Riddle's warm embrace decided to rest her head on the chest of her field while sipping the fragrant mint, masculine, and green apple on her body. Rarely does he think a man has a fragrant apple.
" Do you like green apples?" aleyza asked involuntarily out of her mouth.
The Duke Regulus Riddle raised his eyebrows next to his before then laughed softly. Aleyza who realized his silly behavior immediately blushed and at the same time happy to hear the melodious laughter of Duke Regulus Riddle calm her heart.
" Yes, since I was a kid, I've loved to eat green apples, and even my grandfather had to supply them every day so I could eat" Duke Regulus Riddle said.
Duke Regulus Riddle is happy that the day he and Aleyza will finally begin. May the Emperor Lucius not find them.
If that happens, Duke Regulus Riddle must take the path of rebellion.
