"Ahem."

Shureii let out a dainty cough as she smiled coldly, sending shivers down the back of the males in the room.

"Shall we properly commence?"

After recovering from the unexpected situation she found herself in, all her embarrassment quickly changed into righteous anger.

Flashback

"Your Excellency."

Risteard's smug smile slipped off his face.

"Your Majesty."

Vincent snapped out of his cold glare.

Both monarchs turned to look at the very displeased, very unamused looking Shureii. Even though she was by far smaller than them in structure and form, they could feel an intimidating aura emitting from her.

Those eyes...

That expression...

Both would never admit that at that moment they felt that she was the giant and they were mere ants about to be crushed.

She's angry.

And she was. Somehow without losing her composure and breaching etiquette, Shureii was able to convey her anger as she ruthlessly scolded them in that oh so polite and gentle...too gentle...voice. Of course, Louis was not let off the hook either. Thus, it was with much deflated egos that the males entered the designated meeting area.

End Flashback

Ordinarily such acts of blatant discipline from someone lower in ranking and younger would not be tolerated, but for some reason (lols) the males there did not let out a whisper of complaint and sat obediently in their places.

They did, after all, act immaturely and even implied something that would be embarrassing for any female. Also, their instincts, highly honed for survival, told them not to anger this person anymore.

"Yes, I should have welcomed you more hospitably." Vincent said, looking at Risteard with no less animosity but better concealed.

"Oh no. The welcome was perfectly as expected." Came the calm reply.

I still hate you. Was the unsaid, but clearly heard implication from both of them.

Shureii was not oblivious to this but decided to let it go. Letting out an inner sigh, she released the small bit of leftover anger.

"So, may I know why I am included in this meeting? I am neither of royal lineage, nor am I a full citizen of any kingdom."

"While that is true, you are integrally involved in this meeting." Vincent answered.

Hmm...he looks serious...

"Does it have anything to do with my hair and eyes?"

The exchanged looks were all that she needed.

So it is...

"Lady Shureii, your features are rare..." Here Vincent shook his head as he corrected himself. "No. They are more than rare. You may be the only one with them in this world."

Uwah...I am a Rarity?! (Reincarnation) EditingWhere stories live. Discover now
