Hareem of Queen Alessa
Use as you please

Prussian Palace

The Queen welcomed the Emperor's arrival with lavish banquets and the finest dishes of her country. He also showed various things about the superiority of the kingdom such as verses made by famous writers in his country. They are now in the same Prussian palace library as that of Emperor Alessa in Aegis.

“Horace, Virgil, Ovid, and Livy are all writers whose careers are growing. They gave birth to brilliant works that not all countries have,” Queen Anna is a little proud of herself.

Emperor Alessa nodded. The manic is rolling reading every single piece of precious paper. In those days, science was a priceless treasure because the scholars were very limited.

“But, Europe adopts the religious structure and theatrical genre of the Greeks.”

Queen Anna was silent for a moment, Emperor Alessa smiled sweetly as she picked up another pile of paper. “There is a saying that says not to forget the origin of yourself, no matter how small it is.”

“Inspired more precisely.”

“Very impressive,” somehow the Emperor's speech sounded like an insinuation.

The queen started to feel awkward. “Can we go back to the banquet hall?”

“Of course, Queen.”

The Emperor walked first after tidying up the sheet he had read, the Queen bit her lip as it did not manage to provoke Emperor Alessa. Intended to show excess even open old wounds. Greece was highly influential on the language, politics, education system, philosophy, science, and art in Europe. Because almost everything is from there.

The sky is getting dark. In a room there is a secret meeting.

“Make sure he disappears tonight too!”

An order given to a man dressed in all black. He was wearing a hooded robe until his face was nowhere to be seen.

“Good!” quickly the all-black figure disappeared from behind the balcony of the room.

Not long ago, a grin was imprinted on his handsome yet cold face. An expression he never showed anyone. That man was none other than the King of Prussia, the King of Fabian. He hires a hitman to finish off a target he hates. Hate him so much that he doesn't want to see that person again.

“I won't let the wedding happen, won't!”

King Fabian squeezed the glass he was holding to shreds. His anger peaked when he remembered an invitation scroll given by Emperor Alessa. The woman is getting married, marrying a prince. He was not willing, the girl who had once belonged to him would be edited by someone else. Didn't she once offer a concubine position to Emperor Alessa.  King Fabian did not expect Emperor Alessa to be the leader of the Aegis. If he had known first, King Fabian would not have had a political marriage with the Podolski family. Because if he marries his ex-girlfriend, it is certain that the position his woman holds will fall on him.

All outside of the plan. For five years, King Fabian thought his former lover had died in a coup by Prince Judas. Unexpectedly, it was as if rising from the grave of the woman had brought down the Aegis empire under the auspices of her despotic and cruel half-brother. Not for long, a bird news made King Fabian frustrated. His former most beautiful lover even held a competition to find a concubine as his companion.

At first King Fabian did not believe it. It's just obscure news that could just be an essay. But, all was answered by the arrival of Emperor Alessa with an invitation from him.

“Forwardly you are even more enchanting, Alessa..”.

“Your Majesty?”

King Fabbian was aghast at his wife's sudden voice, the figure was already behind the window. “Ra-queen?”

“What are you doing these nights on the balcony. Night air is not good for health,” Queen Anna looks worried. He brought a coat and put it on the King.

“I... just being breathing fresh air.”

“I think it's late, let's go back inside. Tomorrow we have to get up early because Aegis' troupe will return to his land.”

“Besok?” ask the King back. Convince me if he doesn't hear wrong. There is a feeling of unwillingness when her ex-lover is about to leave.

“Yes, this afternoon Emperor Alessa expressed his intention, Why?”

“Don't expect anything, because he's getting married. Let him be happy with his choice,” the King stops the pace. Looking at his wife.

“What do you mean?” King Fabian frowned.

“I know if Your Majesty still likes it,” said the Queen with a flat face.

King Fabian shook his head. What the Queen said was reality. King Fabian obviously did not want to admit it. “You think too much.”

“I saw it, I'm not blind. The king kept looking at him despite me by your side!”

“Queen, I don't want to argue. As the Queen knew if the Emperor would get married soon. Doesn't that calm you down?”

The king said, turning his back to his wife's body. He did not want to show any expression when saying the actual word hurt himself. Suppress that discomfort and keep on going on the show. He still needed the Queen as a supporter of his throne. Anna Podolski was a niece of Emperor Louis, who was the leader of the Diocletian empire, which ruled Western Europe and Eastern Europe.

The queen approached King Fabian and hugged the man's body.

“I will never give up, we are already destined to be together forever.”

Prussian Palace guest room.

Prince Evandor poured tea water into a cup and gave it to the Emperor. “Your Highness, please drink,” bargain.

“You don't have to bother the prince, there are still many servants who can make me tea,” the Emperor accepted it even though he was reluctant.

“Hamba only fills free time.”

Emperor Alessa took a deep breath. If it wasn't for this incident last afternoon. He pretended to be friendly with the Prince so that the King and Queen believed that if they were going to get married, he would not let the man in his room. Now Prince Evandor was confused about what to do, because the Emperor himself did not invite him to talk.

“What if we take a walk in the park before tomorrow we go back home?”

The Emperor's offer was like a crumbling durian for Prince Evandor. What a dream last night until the Emperor took him for a walk. Before, the Emperor hated him half-dead.

Prince Evandor immediately got up from his seat and took the mantle for the Emperor. His actions turned out to be too excessive. The man was sorry again.

The servants saw a signal until they came forward and took the coat from the Prince.

“Let the waiter do his job. You as a prince just enough to keep the attitude,” the circus of the Emperor Langung stuck into his heart.

“Ba-Good Your Majesty,” Prince Evandor nodded obediently.

They also walked to the park. Beautiful garden under the moonlight. The atmosphere is so romantic. Plus they walk just the two of them. Emperor Alessa purposely did not bring her ladies to be with her. The Emperor intended to say something to Prince Evandor.

“Sorry, I've been acting at will. I used you for my own sake. If you mind, I'll stop it.”

“Hamba never mind. Use the servant as you please, Your Majesty. Take advantage of the servant until the servant forgets if it is being used.”
