Ever wondered why the hell the world looked so satisfied by treating you like a trash? Like you did hear the quotes that says that 'bad things happens to good people' and you just believe it gathering all your strength to fight one more time and eat cake.

You may don't get what am saying, me neither.

I stared straight at the blond that is sitting comfortably before my eyes in his plush couch.

Just seeing how unfair the world treat you and you ask yourself where the hell did it all go wrong? Was it when you turned bored and decided to leave your room or when you just wanted chocolate and some random kid started chasing after you, of course after getting caught? or is it when you bumped to the last person you planned to meet?

Well in my case, all the three options.
I swallowed hard my saliva, his gaze burning into mine.

Is it me or is the air here suffocating?

I tried avoiding any more eye contacts with this guy sweating hard like a hen beside fire in summer but he continued starting impulsively.

'That it! He will kill me!', I cried mentally.

As much as I wanted to jump out of the window it was technically impossible due my physical height and I was scared from heights. The idea of just falling like a rock once I jump from that window and broking my body to pieces, terrifies me. Even more than Claude.

'Poor me', I chuckled mentally. Behind Claude stood Felix in respect sweating nervously on my unexpected presences, holding the same girl that was chasing me hand. She was staring at me curiously, wondering what the hell am I.

Not surprised. After all I suddenly showed up and is sitting infront of the current emperor with no given dignity.

The silence was so sharp, I felt that I was able to hear my own heart as it played within my chest breathing heavy. 'I will die. No I won't die, Felix is here...an...and he will protect me...yes?', I convinced myself

'Yeah, I will survive'.

"Your majes-"

"Take athanasia for a walk felix", claude voice rang coldly composure after interrupting Felix.

'Wait what??!!', my eyes widen.

"But your majesty-"

"I don't think I was telling you. It's an order", the emperor spoke half turning, glaring daggers at the red headed. I could swear that shiver run down my spine. The whole room vibrated in fear just at that glare claude made. Now I was certain that I was going to die in a heart attack.

'I don't want to be left alone with him!', I trembled at the thought only.

Felix gaze traveled to me as I pleaded for help mentally. It's not like I wanted to look scared, it was just uncontrollable. My heart was racing rapidly, I gripped my hand in tiny fist turning my knuckles white.

I wasn't ready to meet him yet. At least not like this. I don't even know why he made me feel so scared, but his aura didn't send peace at all. I could tell that I was in the average of crying.

"No"

Am not sure if my ears caught it right or if my eardrums were blocked due the high adrenaline that was flowing through my veins, but I think these words escaped Felix lips.

The red headed walked forward, letting go of the little girl hand and than kneeling infront of his king. His fist to the floor, lowering his head virtually. "Forgive me your majesty but I can't leave the princess side ", he spoke calmly.

'WHAT IS HE DOING??!!'

"She has been inside her room for too long that she have no courage to speak or communicate to others. My role doesn't allow me to cross my line your majesty but am responsible of her and if you could spare her and punish me instead. I will be greatful", Felix words almost break me into tears. He was actually defending for me infront of the emperor claude de algor obelian-oh wait...no.
