Ukiyo's Point of View

Carrying Takara in my arms towards my room was the worst day ever. Even though she's pain in the ass, I do enjoy her free spirit. But right now all I could do was worry for her.

The door was completely open as I walked in, placing Takara on the bed. I sat down next to her, watching her breath in and out in pain. All I wanted to do was take away the pain, but I knew I couldn't. These were the rules and I felt helpless.

'What happened for you to receive such a punishment?' I thought, as I gently played with her silver locks.

*Knock knock*

"Son, we need to talk." My father replies from the door. I couldn't help but refused answering him. He walks into the room closing the door behind him. "I know you're mad at me, but if you had interfered with her punishment, then you would have been punish as well. Or worse, she could be taken away to the slave markets." He finishes, placing his hand on my shoulder.

A single tear fell from my eyes as I held them shut tightly. My thoughts kept racing through my head as I repeated the same question over and over again.

'Why? Why did she have to be punish but not the other slave? Just...why?'

I wiped the tears from my face as I stood up and walked out of the room. I just couldn't handle it, not without an explanation. I knew the only person who would give an explanation would be the one person I despised the most, the one who has it all.

The Emperor's son.
