The king gaze lingered on her for a moment, before he turned to leave. "Good then. I have a meeting with the officials to discuss our response to Tenebria. We would talk more about this later Ava, the king said using her pet name. And Eira gave him her charming smile in response.
As the king departed Eira felt a Mix of emotions: guilt for keeping her encounter a secret, concern about the possible alliance with the two kingdoms, and lingering curiosity about the sliver haired, to think that he left her on her own, Eira was mad, she was hoping mad,at the same time furious "just pray I don't see you soon stranger, I promise to make you pay ' Eira said with a hiss"

"The court is dismissed, ' the king said"
TENEBRIA CITY (KINGDOM)
"In the walls, of the Tenebria palace,in one of the corridors leading to the high Court, where judgement and decisions are being passed and carried out, a handsome young man with piercing dark red eyes, his sliver hair flowing like moonlight down his back,he wears a flowing white robe with a sliver cloak draped over his shoulder. The fabric embroidered with intricate gold thread that simmer like the moon's. A sliver circlet rest on his brow, adorned with a small glittering gemstone. His hands rest on the hits of his sword, it's blade etched with ancient runes that seem to glow,in the light as he walked with elegant step and grace, with pride and boldness,his head held high,his chin raised up in pride and to show his position as he made his way to the high Court".
"In the high Court, the people present, both Minister's, official's, lord's, duke's, and some noble's, they should be consisting of hundred beings or more than hundred in the big hall, of the high Court,in the far end the emperor "king of kings" was seated in majesty and grace with boldness,in a small room at the left hand side of the emperor there in the high Court, the empress and the king concubine were seated with a somewhat transparent silk covering the room, but transparent enough to see what was going on. And in the right hand side of the emperor the King son's where seated also, everyone was present remaining the crown prince, just in time the steward announced the prince arrival.
"First prince, crown prince Roderick von Blackwood is at arrival ' the steward announced".
' And with elegancy,crown prince Roderick found his Way to his mini throne which was beside his father ' Emperor Gorton Von Blackwood". His face stoic as ever, his aura intimidating, no single expression on his face, his face and demeanor calm as mid winter, but his aura Frosty and aloof very intimidating, that some of the people he passed by had to hold their breath so he could just move on '.
"He kept on taking long stride towards his spot in the high Court,when he suddenly stopped and turned his head over his shoulder before turning fully at his right hand side. "Duke Wilson,we have some scores to settle about the trade and the high fund you collect from the people. ' prince Derick (Roderick, Derick for short) said with a small smile his dark red eyes staring deep into his Asif searching for his soul, which wasn't like a smile but a mischievous one that says "I know all your deed", right now sweat had broke down in the back of most of the people present whose hands where dirty, duke Wilson, forehead was already covered in cold sweat '.
Who is Derick ?" Derick is the first prince of Tenebria birthed by the king and queen, with a very calm nature, but behind that calm there is a storm that many do not wish to witness".
"One thing about Derick is his, nature of behaving like he knows nothing but that if you are a fool to understimate him, because he literally knows everything and would make you set a trap that you would likely fall into yourself and he would be the one waiting to rescue you or rather behead you".
"Derick sharp gaze passed through the rest of the Minister's in the hall, giving them goosebumps, some looked away and some held their gaze. The King seeing the tension caused by his first son decided to relieve the tension a bit '.
' Crown prince Derick , ' the king called using his title. Derick sharp gaze snapped at his father the king who was seated at his throne.
"You came late, and the first thing you could do was to scare my subordinate?" The King asked with raised brow ".
"Derick let out a small smirk and said" I couldn't help it your majesty please forgive me. ' If one should pick meaning into the words there was no atom of sincerity or remorse, it was more like a mocking or a blunt reply '.
'The King rub his forehead with his palm already fed up with his son'.
"Live long and serve your people till enternity your majesty" Derick said kneeling with a leg as he bowed his head.
"The king was hoping mad everybody greet normal but Derick has his own special way of greetings for him to leave long and serve forever because he doesn't want to get married and take the throne but hell no, only if you know you already have a fiancee, ' the king thought with a smirk.
"Rise ' the king said not bothering to address him."
"Derick stood up and took his seat like nothing happened, he could feel hate glares and resentment being thrown at him but hell, who cares, Derick never cared about anything at all '.
