Empire's Treasure

3

Next day~

We left right after lunch father and I still didn't have a talk I think he's waiting for us to return to the palace first but atleast he agreed that I can bring uncle koshar with me that's one thing he also agreed that I can go back to the eastern empire anytime I want but not for now
'I wonder what happened to Diana and her child, why would papa look for me if he's happy with Diana and thier child?' my train of thoughts were cut off by felix startling me

"Felix, you scared me" I punched him lightly even though I ran away five years ago I'm still close to him

"Sorry princess you seemed you needed some biscuits, would you like some?" He precedent a plate of biscuits I laughed a bit

"Thank you Felix" I ate one, uncle koshar approached us

"Is our little darling eating biscuits?" Uncle koshar said

"Mmm... Have some uncle koshar" I offered some to him he took it and ate it

"Mmm yum" he said a maid approached us

"Here's the tea you requested" she said he took one and gave it to me

"Careful it's hot" uncle koshar warned after finishing my tea and biscuits i felt sleepy "sleepy darling?"uncle kosher asked

"Mmm*yawn*" i nodded off

"Come here I'll carry you" he offered i went to him and drifted into dream land

Uncle koshar's pov

Natrix fell asleep when i was about to stand his highness Claude came out of nowhere starting me a bit

"Give me the kid" he said I hesitated a bit but didn't want to argue cuz he is the emperor of the strongest empire so I hand Natrix over to him, he took her and left to his office...'I wonder how they got separated... Why doesn't she want to go back with them' questions filled my mind

Claude's pov

After years of looking I finally get to see her and hold her my daughter my beloved daughter, I held her in my arms as she's asleep her peaceful and cute face that I've been longing for, I hugged her but trying not to squeeze her so she won't wake up I held her as I do my work 'this time i will make up for all the years we missed together, I will make up for the mistakes I made I'll do anything for her to forgive me I'll do anything even give up my life for her

"If I didn't neglect her would I never missed her this much?... Can I still be her father again?... Forgive me my daughter it's all my fault I shouldn't have neglected you, I should've put you first out of everything please forgive me" I asked and begged the sleeping girl in my arms not realizing the tears rolling down my face if anyone could see me now they would question if I'm still the cold emperor they see but Natrix is the only one who knows and have seen me cry not even Diana and athenasia saw me cry only Natrix and she was there with me all the way until I became emperor

"I love you Natrix" I said and kissed her forehead
