By midnight, the darkness was almost absolute. Only a vague amount of stars are seen scattered and shining above the dark shy. Even the moon has waned to almost nothing. A rumble came out of Emelia's stomach as she stretched her arms up high. The soldiers didn't give her any food to eat. Well, they did, but who would want to eat a piece of molded bread and a bowl of grayish looking soup?
Not only did they not feed her with proper food, but they also had the audacity to leave a lady under the cold night, to the point where she was shivering, but despite her feeling weak, her face doesn't show it all. If that Emperor wanted to keep her, then why won't he at least treat her better? Or could this be one of his tactics to let her suffer so that she'll surrender and lose the game?
