Queen Ariadne's POV
I felt a hand around my back and legs holding them tight. The person was strong and fast because I was about to land on the floor. My eyes were still shut tightly, I escaped death today, all thanks to Whoever it was.
"Open your eyes, you are now safe Queen Ariadne," a deep voice said to me. The voice was familiar, slowly I opened them to see who was my savior. It was the Emperor! quickly I tried to free myself but his grip was tight.
"Don't worry, I will take you to your Chambers" he added.
I wanted to say no, but the words didn't come out of my mouth. The emperor wasn't in the hall when I was decorating. Only the gods knew how he saved me.
All eyes were on us as soon as we entered the women's quarters. They were all surprised to see the Emperor carrying me around. As usual, they started whispering to each other. I became shy instantly and buried my head in the king's robe.
