The Witch's Wand

Part 12 'The Greatest City'

I moved down to the next door opening it up to be met by a very different room, this room had sandstone walls, everything, dark wood, gold and leather. I opened the wardrobe to be met with beautiful red, gold, and lilac most of it thin and silky, with fine golden jewellery. 

Whoa... whoever is in here is fancy. 

I picked out a lilac dress long and flowing reaching my ankles, the dress loose and half sheer, I felt a little cold wearing it, with a silver belt of suns and moons. I took the wand and unlocked the door opening it up to a large impressive room.

I stopped short as I saw the large impressive room with sandstone walls, and golden drapes, the heat so intense the dress suddenly made sense, the room had a large marble floor, high stone ceilings, thick wooden doors and large arched windows looking out... 

To the greatest city I had ever seen, 

I walked to the window looking at the beautiful tall city, with aqueducts, cobblestone streets, people busy and bustling around markets, tall buildings and statues, and I knew where this place was.

Rome.

But an older Rome, the Rome I had heard about in storybooks. 

It was truly beautiful beyond my wildest dreams, 

I heard the door open and the tall blonde man stepped inside in his golden clothes clearly someone important, he opened his arms as he saw me and smiled widely,

"There she is!" he cooed cuddling me pulling me to his chest and kissing me softly, "My beautiful little bird," He smiled, "how is it possible for you to look so beautiful?"

"I... don't know..."

"My sweet empress."

"Empre- empress!?"

"Yes, my empress? The best Emporer in all of Rome's history needs the best most beautiful empress in the history of the Roman empire!" He cooed, 

"Really?" I giggled, "me?  the most beautiful empress in the history of the Roman Empire!?" I giggled, 

"of course!" he smiled, "They shall tell stories all through the history of the grand rule of Emporer Romulus Augustus and his sweet wife empress Y/n known across the empire and the world as the most beautiful woman ever to be born into this world"

"awww that's so sweet,"

"Now... I have been away from my lovely wife since this morning, and I've missed you" he smirked between kisses, "Did you miss me too little bird?"

"of course I did," I smiled,  

"ummm that's my girl," he cooed, 

"Come on... let's sit on the balcony and get cosy," he smirked, tugging me out to a balcony that overlooked the beautiful city we sat down together and he told me about Roman politics as we shared some wine and grapes, "I don't wish to bore you my little bird,"

"No no, I like to hear,"

"You are so sweet," he cooed, "I have missed you so badly, I always do when I have to work without my empress beside me," 

"Awww thank you, Romulus," 

"I have missed you so bad my little bird," he cooed between kisses on my neck, "Ummm... May I?"

"May you?"

"May I hear my little bird sing for me? her voice echoing off the walls as she sings out my name in utter euphoria?" 

"ohh..." I gulped before I finished my wine, "mhm,"

"Umm come on then little bird, your emperor wants to work on a son tonight," He smirked,
