It's been almost a month since the concubine had been getting lessons from the Queen. The Queen tried her best to ignore the King and spent most of her time attending to her duties as Queen of the Moral Empire or teaching the concubine.
'Your Highness, this question is too hard for me to solve, give this concubine a hint.' Kira pleaded with the Queen. The Queen prepared an exam of everything they went through, including Mathematics, Science, and English. Kira was surprised the Queen wanted to test her memory this quickly and panicked. The concubine wasn't confident in her learning skills so she bugged the Queen for the entirety of the test.
The Queen had been dealing with a few orders from the top executive, so she ignored the concubine. At some moment, the Queen realized the continuous begging had ended. She brushed a look toward the concubine and paused. Kira was staring at her.
The concubine was immersed in the powerful beauty the Queen emitted, seeing the Queen so intensely focused as she worked had only mesmerized the latter.
'Kira... is something the matter?' The Queen furrowed her brows, she didn't understand why the concubine had been looking at her with red cheeks.
'Has the Queen always been this beautiful?'
Hearing compliments, anyone would feel shy, this included the Queen herself. Despite her servants' constant praises, she hadn't thought much of her looks. Hearing this from the attractive concubine only embarrassed the Queen more. To say this so casually, this concubine is surely strange… she thought to herself.
'Don't say stuff like that.' Although the Queen's cheeks were dark red, her cold gaze remained. Seeing this sight, the concubine quickly bowed. 'My apologies, your Highness.' The Queen didn't respond and so Kira looked up.
As soon as she looked up, the Queen still looked at her. Kira turned her head in confusion and the Queen moved her hand slowly to her face.
She poked right into Kira's dimples. The Queen had a bashful expression but she kept her finger there. The concubine's eyes widened and thought to herself. Is this why the Queen was intensely looking at me? Did she want to touch my dimples?
These questions surrounded the concubine's mind. The Queen noticed the concubine lost in thought and quickly moved her finger.
She cleared her throat and continued to work as if nothing had happened.
This only shocked the concubine more. She wanted to ask the Queen but stopped herself, knowing the Queen would probably just ignore her.
