Mia followed after Gerald, trying to keep up with his pace despite the number of scrolls that kept falling off her hand which she frequently bent to pick up.
Gerald peered at her over his shoulders, watching as she continously struggled with the scrolls she held,the kept falling off her hands due to their misarrangement,most of them were placed on top the other in a disordered manner.
He stopped, slipped a few under his armpit,his arm barely supporting them as it held the rest against his body wall.
Then held out one free hand,and collected a few from her, holding them together inbetween his fingers then he turned and walked on.
Gerald spotted a knight from afar and called out.
"You there!"
The knight stopped walking and turned to meet him,stopping with a bow.
"Take those scrolls from her and follow me"he ordered.
The knight nodded and reached for the scrolls in Mia's hand but she turned the other way.
"I want to help my Lord".she said.
Gerald sighed and shut his eyes,then he opened them,he was getting tired of having her around and though he couldn't see behind him he could tell she had been staring at him the whole time,and it creeped him out.
"This isn't what you should concern yourself with...go back to your resting room".
Mia lowered her head,her lips pouting,then those sad blue eyes looked into his that it somehow melted a part of him,even Gerald didn't understand why,but he had never liked seeing women unhappy.
"Fine!you help her carry some"he said"And take some of this too".
The knight collected the ones he held then took a few from Mia.
Gerald's face wore a frown as he walked towards the imperial Library.
If the knight he asked for help earlier had come this wouldn't have happened he was definitely going to punish him for this.
The emperor's knight held a much higher position than Chief Knights,but a general was a more higher rank,they were the next most highly respected after province govornors who managed each province in all six kingdoms.
Though still a knight Gerald recieved as much honor and respect as most generals but that was just because he was the emperor's knight.
Tyran had once gifted him the position of a general as a reward but he had declined because he loved his job and he loved Tyran even more.
Gerald sent a telepathic message on their way to the imperial library and in no time three knights came rushing their way.
He handed few scrolls over to them after opening them up to check it's contents and instructed the knights to disperse them accordingly.
When they reached the imperial Library the knight helped Gerald place the the scrolls in their respective position, the emperor's knight constantly looking behind him.
She was still there,still staring with those creepy blue eyes at him.
Gerald finished arranging the scrolls then walked out of the library without turning to look Mia's way.
He walked in the direction of his chambers but as he went on,he could still percieve her scent,it was close by,he turned but couldn't see anyone.
Was she trailing him?maybe trying to know his chamber but for what reason?
On their way to the imperial Library he could tell she wanted to speak with him but it seemed her words were stuck in and her lips couldn't figure how to let them out.
Creepy bitch!
Gerald muttered within him then vanished to reappear on his bed.
She had made him use space magic,and here he was trying to conserve his magic energy.
He sighed and finally shut his eyes.
**********************
Carolene's hand pressed on her breast in attempt let more milk out into Ramses's mouth,as Ramses sucked on,his wide grey eyes fixed on a face whose eyes were focused on the door ahead.
She stared,lost in her thoughts as she pictured Gerald's figure in front of her, wondering how long she would be locked in here without seeing him,if she could go another day without him.
She didn't know why but a part of her longed to see him,it longed for his presence and his embrace once again.
But here she was,stuck in the Emperess quarters with a baby,or more like an adult baby,a strange creature that even the word strange couldn't describe his eerie nature or the aura that surrounded him.
She didn't want this but was forced into this,her longing to see the one she loved was gradually turning Fiona's chambers into the prison she dreaded.
Her eyes had been stuck in that same spot for a while now and even the child had noticed.
At intervals he removed his mouth from her nipples but she still pressed on them that the breast milk spilled on her dress.
Ramses touched her severally but she never looked his way.
Her distant face gave him concern but he still giggled,hitting on her breast as he did,still he got the same response.
Ramses frowned then placed his mouth on the nipple and bit it.
"AaahhhOoooouuu!"Carolene yelled and looked down at him.
It was the first time he had bit her.
"Your majesty,why did you do that?"she questioned with furrowed brows,her arms still placed on her exposed breast.
Ramses giggled and rolled of her arms.
He landed on the ground with his head then the rest of his body followed but he didn't stop laughing.
Carolene hurriedly rushed to pick him up.
Placing both hands under his armpit she lifted him to her face.
"Little Prince...don't be a bad baby!"she scolded.
Ramses opened his mouth, letting saliva drip on her hand then he spat into her face,his giggle even louder now.
"Arrrgghhhhh!"She cried out.
Carolene went over to the bed and placed him on it frowning.
"Your majesty pardon for saying this but me don't you do that again!"Carolene scolded as she replaced her breast back into her dress.
Ramses didn't stop giggling while he kicked his feet in the air.
An angered Carolene watched him for a while before stalking out of the room.
