The empress is mine (discontinued)

Odessa- unexpected Ally? Pt.2

I called a servent to the room and told him to deliver it the duke.

He looked dumbfounded and confused when I said that. When I asked him what was wrong he told me there's a good number of dukes.

I asked him which one was here the other day with all those guards.

"Oh, you mean the arch duke miss? Yes I will deliver this to him right now." He bowed and left.

About thirty minutes later I watched as the arch duke and a blacked haired man walked in and yet even though I was scared, the only thing I could think about was: what the hell is an arch duke?

"What's an arch duke Devon?" I asked turning to him.

He had been sleeping belly up since I sent out the letter and since I had been watching the window, seeing as my room was facing the front of the castle, but as I turned he was jumping mid-air to the couch.

"Ask your friend." Was all he replied before walking up to my door and, once he got the he got the doorknob to turn, walked out.

Somehow slamming it behind him.

"Grumpy much?"  I asked to which I received no reply.

When I turned back to the window I found that the front of the castle had cleared out, and someone was knocking on my door.

"Come in!" I shouted, which apparently didn't do anything, either because the room was to big, or because no one in this era knows what come in means.

So I got up and opened the door manually.

Upon opening it I found a maid, the same one from before, Amelia, bowing to my eye candy from the first day I was here with the black haired man from before.

"Majio Odessa. Nice to see you again." He looked me up and down then said: "nice choice of apparel" and let himself into my room, with the guy following his lead.

If he was going to call me names and not respect me, then I won't either.

"Nice to see you again too duke Theron." Im guessing that the arch duke title is a promotion.

So therefore I will not be calling him it.

"Arch duke crest to you." The guy said.

"Oh, I am sorry I didn't hear the news of you changing your name. What exactly does it mean? I'm assuming it has something to so with you title and position?" I played innocent.

As I was asking this I brought them to the sofa's and rang a bell for Amelia to come and serve tea for us.

At least that's what I thought the bell did. Amelia was nice enough to understand what I wanted and poured them tea.

"You don't know anything still? I thought the prince was going to teach you something at least!?" Theron laughed.

"That is why I need your help. I still don't know anything, and thankfully you are kind my lord, so I will mess something up and offend someone and probably loose my head." I told him rubbing my neck.

In some ways it was true.

I did not want to loose my head.

"And what should I call you sir?" I asked turning to the black haired guy.

"Raven." Theron answered me instead. "He's my advisor. Hope you don't mind him here."

"Of course not." I said smiling.

"Good." He said leaning forward. "So let me guess... you want me to teach you the things of upper class? Education is only for them in this world really.
