Arriving at Emperor's Palace, Alexander brought Rivera into a room that had a large size with a dark background. It was Alexander's private room. Rivera was puzzled as to why Alexander had taken her into the room.
"Baginda, why did the tone bring me here!!" upset Rivera glared at Alexander who was sitting on the sofa with his smile it was as if nothing had happened.
Rivera was more astonished that Alexander did not answer his question. He was indeed lazy to face the strange man in front of him at this moment. He decided to sit on the bed while folding his hands.
"It is only you who dare to sit on the bed of an emperor. Aren't you scared?" ask Alexander.
"Ck! So can I not sit here, if not then step by step..!! " sadly Rivera left but suddenly Alexander came and lifted Rivera's body back up.
He put Rivera on the bed and said, "Why are you so irritable. You could've sat on my bed. From now on you'll be staying here, too,"
" !!.."
"What do you mean I'll stay here? Are you kidding me, I don't even want to. Don't force me, because I really don't like being forced by people who aren't close to me..!! " sad Rivera threw away Alexander's face.
Alexander gave a small smile, he sat on the floor and then put his head on Rivera's thigh. Rivera was surprised at Alexander's attitude. He did not understand, why Alexander treated him like this.
"It's a good thing you're so strong, so I can't fight you. If I were stronger than you I would twist your head 100 times," growled Rivera could not dwell on Alexander's attitude.
"Why do you want to get away from me..? Even though near you I can feel as comfortable as I feel with the woman. "s mumbling Alexander slowly began to lose consciousness and sleep in a deep sleep.
"Why would an emperor like you sit on the floor, and now lie down on my thigh" Rivera let out a long sigh.
"Huftt. actually that brat is you or me..! From the beginning I didn't like being close to you, you just brought yourself in and acted pretentious," upset Rivera began to lift Alexander's head slowly and put it on the corner of the mattress. Rivera quietly came down from the bed intending to leave, but Alexander's hand grabbed Rivera's arm so that Rivera fell into Alexander's arms.
" !! " surprised Rivera, Alexander suddenly hugged himself as tightly as a puppet.
"Baginda, please let go of your hand.. Sire," call Rivera to shake Alexander's body. But Alexander never realized and more soundly.
"You don't want me to have to wait for him to wake up. I also felt a bit sleepy, so I'm going to sleep~" slowly but surely, Rivera fell into drowsiness.
Both of them fell asleep in their drowsiness. Until it did not feel the sun began to fall and the day had darkened. For 7 hours they slept in the room. The one who opened his eyes first was Rivera.
Rivera rubbed his eyes while looking at the open glass window. At that time he knew that the day had darkened. He also set his eyes on Alexander who was still asleep.
"I'm worried that Nanny is worrying about me right now. I have to go back, I don't want to stay here" he muttered slowly waking up and then stepping up to head out of the room.
"Where are you..?" sharp Alexander stopped Rivera's steps in place.
"Don't I tell you that you can't leave this room without my consent..?" he continued to wake up and approach Rivera.
"Ck! Why should I stay here? I have my own palace, why also should I hitchhike in this gloomy palace..!!" rivera protests.
"Then I'll knock down your palace, then you can stay here..!" alexander replied with a cynical smile as he lifted Rivera's body.
"Why did it have to be knocked down?" bewildered Rivera who was not even surprised anymore as Alexander raised his body.
"Because you always wanted to get out of here. I told you that you can't leave,"
"can't. If you leave then I won't be able to see you again,"
" !! "
"It's my right to go. After all you guys are also sending 11-year-olds like me to areas filled with monsters. And now why should you pretend to be nice to me right now.you confuse me, sire" flat Rivera already does not care about anything Alexander does.
Alexander was silent. He looked at Rivera who was starting to ignore him. With that little smile he started to take Rivera away towards the dining room.
It did not escape the sight of the servants around there. They whispered and watched with expressions of shock as if they were looking at a demon. They do not believe, if the emperor who was proclaimed never to hold his wife and child even currently carrying a daughter who they have hated.
Rivera was quite aware of the intent of their gazes at him. But he chose not to care for them because he felt that it was not worth taking care of.
They have arrived at the dining room. Alexander placed Rivera's body on a chair adjacent to the chair he was about to sit on. He sat down near Rivera with a happy smile.
"Eat, all this for you" said Alexander pointing to all the sweet foods on the table.
Rivera. He stared flat at the cake and also some of the candy.
"Where did you learn how to feed an 11-year-old at night..! I wonder which fool told you..! " flat Rivera so that makes Alexander almost laugh.
"Fttt... "
Rivera stared so hard at Alexander that Alexander stopped laughing. Alexander corrected his expression and then said "What does an 11-year-old usually eat at night? " ask Alexander with full patience.
"Give me soup and apple pie that aren't too sweet," Rivera flatly propped up his chin lazily.
"All right,"
Alexander immediately ordered the servants to make apple pie and soup as requested by Rivera. For 20 minutes Rivera tried to be patient to wait, and in the end the two menus he asked for had finally come.
Now Rivera is staring at the 2 menu with a saturated look. He looked back at the two maids who were still waiting beside him.
"What'sthis? You guys want to feed a baby, huh? Why are the portions so few? " rivera protest is upset.
Alexander stared intently at the two servants, making them both tremble in fear.
"B-well, Princess. We will soon add to the portion," they said they were about to step out.
"No need!! I have no appetite because of you. It's better not to eat than to wait for your very long move" Rivera began to step down from the chair.
"Where to go." asked Alexander to stand.
"Where else are you going!!" rivera replied upset and then started to leave.
"Why should I be trapped in here, I am a prisoner..! "
