Armana Frauleins

"Y-Your Majesty. . ." I stammered as he held his sharp knife on his hand, cleaning it with white piece of fabric.

He's definitely trying to scare me.

"You know, I always wipe my knife before using it." He said as he continued to wipe the knife.

I gulped and gave a fake, polite smile, "T-That is great. Hygiene should be maintained w-well."

His body moved a little bit. Wait! Did he just chuckle lightly? Or was it my eyes

"Who are you?" He asked, as his eyes landed on me.

My whole body stopped. Everything stopped. I bet the time did too.

"Armana Frauleins. Princess of the Sou-"

"I won't repeat again." He stopped me.

I gulped, "I-I don't understand what you mean, Your Majesty."

He took a deep breath. I could see his adam's apple shifting up and down. His eyes darkened so does his face. He's clearly annoyed.

"You are not Armana Frauleins. Are you?" He said.

Suddenly. . . It all made sense now. Him not doing anything to me while I was blaming Fiona. Him taking Fiona away so that she doesn't cause any more problem.

He knew. He knew the real Armana Frauleins could never do such things. The real Armana Frauleins never talked back. The real Armana Frauleins loved jewels, gold and the position of the Empress, meanwhile I, Mellisa Marie simply wanted to live a peaceful life without causing trouble.

He fucking knew all of it! Since when?!

"Your Majesty. . . I have no clue-"

A sudden sharpness passed right by me without touching me but enough to warn me. I gulped.

If i lie he will know and kill me. If I tell the truth, what will happen? Should I give it a try.

My eyes were on the ground. I was afraid to face him right now. I didn't know what expression he was making.

I took a deep breath and did what all the thieves would do after getting caught. Confess.

"I am not Armana Frauleins." I confessed, then looked at him. His gaze was neutral like he wasn't shocked.

He waited for me to continue and I did.

"I am Mellisa Marie from another dimension where this world is just a novel. I died at a young age when I opened my eyes I found myself in Armana's body." Suddenly I was feeling very emotional.

What am I even saying? Although it's a true story but its not believable.

"I know the stories and the plot twist here and I even know my role here so I want to change it." I said as tears went down my eyes. "The original Armana Frauleins dies by the hand of Lorenzo Morelli because of her greediness and evil deeds she does to Fiona Barlee. That is why, I simply wanted to live."
