"Looks like you two finally decided to show up after being gone all night", Felix teased them
"A man needs to have free time with his wife, away from the duties", Deimos said
"Don't tell you.., great job Emporer Deimos", Felix praised him as soon as he saw the bite mark on Athena
"Stop talking nonsense and leave, go, go", Deimos said to Felix who left with a huge smile on his face
"That was so embarrassing", Athena said blushing with embarrassment
"It was cute", Deimos said and held her hand in his
"Well my love, we should go get a proper bath, change and go attend the royal meeting", Deimos said
"Am I even allowed there, I know how your advisers are when it comes to power between women and men", Athena said to him
"I am the Emporer, I rule this land and you're my Empress who rules me", Deimos said with a smile on his face. What a proud moment that was
"I will go with you then", Athena said and smiled at him
"Okay, let's go to our chambers and take a bath together", Deimos said so innocently
"I am not falling for that, go bath in your own personal room", Athena said and left him standing there
"Emporer Deimos and Empress Athena", they announced them both as they got into the room where all royal issues and discussions took place
"Why is the Empress here?", someone asked in a low voice and with that there began whispers everywhere
"If you have something to say, say it out loud", Deimos said out loud
"Well your Majesty, don't you think it's improper for the Empress to be here?" Adviser Eddy said
"No, not at all, why would it be improper?", Deimos asked
"Because she is a damn woman", Adviser Marcus said
"Is there something wrong with being a woman?", Deimos asked
"What can she offer, except pleasure when you feel too stressed, I'm not saying that you should not bring anyone here, you should know that women are not meant to be in this place your Majesty", Adviser Marcus said with so much pride
"Adviser Marcus, you really.."
"Stop Deimos", Athena cut him off when he was about to speak
"See, she even dares to command the Emporer, I guess all your mother said was true", Adviser Marcus continued to speak
"You're saying I'm not allowed to call my husband by his name?", Athena asked
"No woman without dignity is allowed to", he continued to insult her and this was getting on Deimo's nerves so much
"Okay, okay. I understand", Athena said calmly
"Seems like you are a bit smart princess, I had li-"
"Sophia" Athena called her maid cutting Adviser Marcus off
"Yes Empress?", Sophia peeked her head in as she answered
"Get me a knight, a small table and a measuring tape", Athena said
"Yes Empress", Sophia said and left the place
"What's that all for?", Deimos asked her
"Wait patiently Emporer Deimos" she said his name and title clear and sternly
