"Greetings to His Majesty, the Sun of the Empire." The General and I greeted together, bowing to the man who was now looking at us like we were bugs.

Yeah, just tell us to get lost and not disturb your date. We are more than happy to oblige.

"I didn't know my orders were still being followed." He asked in a roundabout way looking at the General. He didn't even glance at me.

"The General was simply kind enough to escort a lonely lady back to her room, Your Imperial Highness." I defended the General.

"I wonder what kind of danger lurks around you that you need the General's protection, Consort...Raina." He furrowed his eyebrows.

I almost imagined the little red anger symbol on my head. Yes, I was pissed!

"Your Highness," I struggled to control my voice. I shouldn't snap, I shouldn't snap. He is the Emperor! "My name is Regina Patrissia, Your Highness. I'm afraid I'm not as gentle and elegant as the droplets of rain to deserve the name Raina. And danger or not, it is inappropriate of an Imperial Consort to not have servants or maids. It's even more insulting to the Imperial family if I don't have an escort. The General was simply doing his duty of protecting the image of Imperial family." I bowed.
