The palace were in chaos, the maids and the butler was busy arranging things in palace. Afterall it was the princess's birthday banquet. The one and only adorned princess of the empire, Athanasia de alger obelia was going to turn 16. Today the lady was going to make her debut as crown princess in the high society along with other ladies of the empire.

Many aristocrats and nobility of other empires were invited by the emperor on her dear daughter's birthday.

Y/n l/n, the most talked noble of the time. The girl who ascended the throne in the early age of 17 because of the emperor's death. Being the only heir of the throne she ended up become a cold emperor.

Everything was lively as expected of Obelia, the smell of flowers lingering on the back of her nose.

Everyone was dancing with each other while all the young empress could do was sit in a corner watching everyone dance and laugh.

She was wearing a beautiful golden and pastel coloured gown. Her beautiful hairs were opened and, she had a beautiful crown on her head and a luxurious fur cape surrounding her neck. Her thin muslin gloves looked beautiful in her slender hands, the beautiful rings shined like stars. The lady was young and cunning.

Almost everyone wanted to talk with the young lady and ask for a dance but feared the rejection of the cold empress.

The lady looked happy but her eyes said otherwise. Looking at the crown princess and the emperor dancing her heart ache from the memory of her parents. But the lady knew that she should not show any weakness to anyone even herself.

No matter how luxurious and happy the princess appeared outside the more broken and sad she was inside.

She stood up from the majestic throne she was provided on the second floor from where she watched everything. She sighed before gulping the last sip of the wine and handed over to the servants.

She spared a last glance around her to see if anyone is seeing but fortunately they all were busy gossiping, discussing business matters or either dance. She took off her fur coat and hand it to the servants because the hall was warm due to the mana stones.

She quick and fastly walked out of the baquet hall. She reached right in the middle of a big corridor which had a garden in front of it.

The roses had bloomed on the bushes, the water in the fountain shined like silver in the moonlight which tight in middle. The young empress was drawn towards the beauty instantly. As soon as she stepped on the grass she could feel the faint dewdrops on her skin. It was cool and refreshing.

She looked around finding no one around her again. She walked towards the fountain and found a cute raven and grey coloured beast resting in the corner. The beast slowly opened it's eyes finding her standing in front of it. For a moment it make it alert but within few seconds the beast turned soft towards her.

It came running towards her and jumped on her making her fall on the ground. "Looks like you are really happy to see me, little one." She chuckled as the beast happily licked her. "Now who must be your owner?" She wondered while patting the little beast.

"I am quite surprised that you survived being in front of this being." A deep cold voice was heard behind her. The lady felt a tall figure standing in front of her. She quickly and carefully took out the dagger hid inside her gown and pressed it against the man's throat.

That man had crimson red eyes and long, raven black hairs brushing down on her face. The man was tall and looked young. He was also wearing a long green coat and within it was black attire. There were strange symbols on his coat.

"Now who must be you?" She asked scanning him all over, head to toe. "Someone you don't know." Lucas answered nonchalantly. "If i knew why would i have asked?" She said and purposefully stepped on his foot in heels.

"Ouch!!" The boy cried.

"That's what you got in return of talking back to the empress." She said with a prideful and triumphant look on her face. In a few seconds she felt that her legs were not touching the ground. "Woah!!" She shouted as she tried to stay still before unless she would fall.

"Now that's what you get to hit the tower magician." Lucas smirked while seeing her struggle in the air. "Oh fuck you!" She shouted while still struggling in her puffy gown. "Get me down!" She shouted at him but lucas just pretended he did not heard a single word she uttered.

"Maybe someone need help but i will only help if they say 'i am sorry, tower magician lucas. I beg yout apology" he said dramatically.

"Never." The stubborn empress just crossed her hands and maintained silence for a while.

"Okay... i am sorry..." she finally accepted her lose.

"I did not hear it. What did you say?" He pretended.

"I am sorry tower magician lucas." She said. "And?" He looked at her from the corner of his eyes. "... do i have to?" She asked rolling her eyes. "Your wish then stay up there." He just shrugged. "Okay!... i beg your apology..." she said in a low voice.

"KYAA!!" She suddenly fell down on ground but did not got hurt. She felt his lips pressed against her, when the realisation kicks in her eyes widened in shock and she separated from him quickly.

They both turned back, their faces covered in blush. They both wondered same thing.

'It was my first kiss.'

She brushed the hairs from her face and dusted off her dress. She tapped her face trying to forgot that sense of his lips on hers. She shyly turned towards him finding that the boy who stole her first kiss was as flustered as she was.

"I-i think it's too late i shall leave!" She said and quickly rushed inside back to the balcony where she was sitted. She took a glass of wine and gulped it in a blink of eyes. "What happened, your majesty?" Athy asked her with a smirk as if she knew what happened. "N-nothing, it's just too cold in here." She awkwardly laughed it off. "It doesn't seem so" athy teased the poor lady.

"Hush, you idiot don't overthink things." She said and faced the other side hiding her blush from her. Athy just laughed and kept on teasing her.

'Whoever you was, i would like to encounter you again.'

'I will find you again and make you pay for these things you've done to me accordingly.'

In that night of full moon both of them were thinking of each other. Was it fate which had done it?
