Empress Sandra

Chapter 9 - Act

for the past three days there has been many things had been happening.

in my previous life before my 11th birthday even come, the emperor died.

many says that it's an act of someone because they thought 'how could an healthy person they saw died suddenly?'

without knowing that someone poisoned him.

in his last will, "sandra, I'll leave the decision to you."

with how naive i am that time i carelessly send that prince to the throne. and that is the caused of great disaster and my miserable death.

"announcing his majesty, the 7th emperor of manchester empire, Dubious Gray De Manchester has return."

handsome appearance even after turning 76 years old this year, life is truly unfair.

"we welcome his majesty the emperor. welcome back."

all of his children to 1st prince and last came with me the only princess here.

his eyes were cold, but when he saw me he smiled warmly.

"sandra. how have you been?"

i can feel the looks of my brothers.
"i have been well father."

because of how the Emperor treats his children differently, i am the only one allowed to call him 'father'

"let's have some warm tea later. i'll call for you. let's head inside."

then suddenly, i felt a strong sense of danger.

"ah! there's a petal in your back father!"

shielding the emperor's back with my hand a piece of small iron arrow hit the center of my hand.

it stings.

"what's wrong?"

i shook my head. he can't found out. "nothing. let's go inside."

hiding my hand behind my back, the gift that I've been waiting really does come.

______________

after dinner earlier, i came back to my room in a hurry. the maids and the butler was shocked when they saw me running.

but because of how my hand got worsen i didn't care a single bit about them.

"ha...ha.." can't believe they put two poisons.

one can make you feel like in a verge of death and another feels like your drunk.

what's this? you want to know everyone that the emperor died while being drunk after his return?

'what nonsense'

but despite how i curse those prince's who gave this gift, it only got worsen.
