Chapter 3

[warning this book has mentions of self harm etc and therefore if your sensitive to those topics do not read]

Soon enough Athanasia feel asleep against the unknown mans chest as he rode them back.

When he arrived a brunette woman came running towards them shouting the what the man assumed to be the girls name.

"Athanasia!"

She stopped right infront of the black horse. The silver haired man climbed down the horse picking the princess up bridal style. The woman looked shocked at them.

" who are you?" She asked but he ignored her.

"I found her lost in the forest, she probably has a cold so give her a warm bath" was all he said leaving Lily there unable to come up with any response.

Then he turned his head slightly.

"Well are you coming ? We better get her back to the palace as soon as possible?"

He said and walked towards the carriage that the two females earlier had traveled in. He opened the carriage door and laid the princess down. He could practically feel the maids eyes staring him down.

The maid entered the carriage and he who obviously was not invited in rode his horse instead. Soon enough they were at the palace. Athanasia had finally woken up and stretched herself. When she looked around she was surprised.

Then she remember what had happened.
Getting lost the, bear attack and him.

"Very well now that you arrived safely I shall be on my way Ms"

he said ready to leave before Athanasia stopped him.

"It's going to rain stay until tomorrow"

And with those determined eyes he knew he didn't have much of a choice.

"Very well" he responded and let out a sight indicating he was tired.

Athanasia walked with the silver haired man through the walls until they reached a guest room. And before he could enter she asked.

"How did you know I was the princess?"

He turned to her and smirked.

"I think the answer to that is pretty obvious, princess~"

and then he entered his room disappearing from the girls sight.

'Ugh I'm so stupid of course he'd know by my appearance'

she slapped her cheeks in frustration.

'Why am I acting so naive in front of him?' She shook her head and walked towards her own chambers.

Somewhere else

An unknown man was walking out off the same chamber he had just a few hours earlier entered.

He walked around the palace inspecting it while no one was there to stop him if he was to enter a restricted room.

Eventually he came to the emperors office. The one room no one was to ever enter unless they had a death wish.

Naturally he entered.

There was a desk in the middle of the room and a chair right behind it. There were red curtains which had golden designs in braided into the silky fabric.

The silver head walked towards the desk.
He could see that one of the cupboards were looked by a magic seal. The silver headed man couldn't help but get curious as to what the emperor might be hiding.

So he did something that he might regret in the future. He opened the magic seal.

'Surprisingly easy' he thought to himself as he looked for what it contained.
There in one of the cupboards he found a book.

A book containing information regarding black magic..

And black magic was illegal even owing anything was. If anyone found this the emperor could get executed. He took the book and looked in it. Thankfully it was fake.

Someone had probably put it there so that if the emperor had a audience with someone they'd easily be able to remove him. So he took the book closed the cupboard and left with the fake book.

Then he went back into his room. Walking towards the bathroom burning the book in the bath.

In a vase laid a rose. He took it and then left.
