'She had a baby?!' She thought, as she looked around before leaning her ear on the door again.

"You had my baby killed!" Rashta shouted.

"Killed? What are you talking about, Rashta?" Viscount Lotteshu asks. "He's still my grandson even if his blood is tainted by the blood of a slave, I would never have him killed."

'Rashta had a child with Viscount Lotteshu's child?!' Delila thought, shocked at this new information.

"I would never have him killed."

"I saw his dead body with my own eyes, you definitely...!" Rashta said.

"Rashta, you stupid little girl, you should stop seeing me as your enemy and reconsider my role in your life." Viscount Lotteshusaid, as Delilah heard some stepping noises. "Why can't you see that I can act as your eyes and ears?"

"I don't need an ally like you!" Rashta exclaimed, as a slapping sound is heard.

"Even if you wear fine jewelery and imitate the nobles, you're not actually a noblewoman, how long do you think you'll stay in the Emperor's favor?"

"His Majesty told me that I'm the only one he loves!"

"You've seen how my son treated you." Viscount Lotteshu said, as it was then silent for a moment. "The more you win over the Emperor's favor, you are setting a precedent for future mistresses, beautiful girls in desperate circumstance will want to win over the Emperor, just like you did, now that people know the Emperor can take on a mistress...those with political ambitions will send him educated women of high station, you're not the Empress, Rashta, as soon as the Emperor stops loving you, you'll become a slave again."

'He's right, a mistress can come and go depending if they are in the Emperor's favour, but not an Empress.' Delilah thought, still standing outside of the room.

"However..." Viscount Lotteshu's voice said. "I can prevent other potential mistresses from approaching him."

"...How?" Rashta asks.

"Well, you'll have to help me first, Rashta, think it over throughly."

Lilliana was in shock as Delilah told her everything she heard, along with Ashlynn and Naomi.

"This a huge deal, Your Majesty! Not only Rashta was a slave but she had a affair with Viscount Lotteshu's son!" Naomi exclaimed.

"Should we tell Empress Navier, Your Majesty?" Ashlynn asks, as Lilliana was deep in thought.

"No, there's no need." She said, slightly shocking her ladies-in-waiting.

"But, Your Majesty, this is useful information!" Delilah exclaim.

"I know, I'm gonna tell someone else this information, but not the Empress." Lilliana smirked.

"Then who?"

"You'll see." Lillliana simply said. 'Oh, Rashta, just you wait, you don't know what's coming for you.'
