The Cold Queen's Revenge
Meet with Marquess Azel

Upon arrival in her room Duchess Mia hugged Duke Ronaf. He was crying in his arms. Just like her, she is also fragile in this regard. This marriage is a political marriage. Among the noble families, his family was the most powerful. So that the nobles pay respect to him. And to strengthen the position of the Crown Prince. Emperor Zen, the father of Emperor Jasper, intended to marry his son to his daughter.

"What should we do?" Duchess Mia let go of her embrace. He turned towards the window.

"Listen, this is all for the sake of our daughter. We have to get through it. I'll look for the information tomorrow."

"Don't worry about anything, you better get some rest." Duchess Mia followed her husband's orders. He walked to his bed and laid his body.

Next day.

After finishing breakfast, Michelina said goodbye to Duke Ronaf and Duchess Mia. He will return to the palace. Not good, if he stayed longer outside the palace. When Emperor Jasper was not in the palace. The sound of the horse's footsteps grew further and further away from the Duke's residence. Michelina looked outwards while propping up her chin.

"Is there anything that disturbs the Empress's mind?" ask Lucilla. She was eager, Empress Michelina was open to her. Even if he was just a servant, he would try to help her.

"If I come out of the palace, will you come with me?"

"Wherever the Empress goes, Lucilla will follow the Empress."

Michelina nodded, if all goes with the plan as it used to. Emperor Jasper and Zoya will meet at the border. Emperor Jasper's territory borders the Zone Territory. It's just that he told his father to find out.

Unknowingly, the carriage had entered the palace gate. He got off that magnificent train. A few steps later, he met a man.

"Empress." He saluted Michelina. Makes the girl reverse her steps. He was not ready to meet anyone in the past. The man in front of him was Marques Azel, a childhood friend of Emperor Jasper. That person is also very protective of Zoya. He even held a sword to his neck. When Marquess Azel finds out, she intends to kill Zoya.

He stared at the sword handle, looking at the blue crystal. "Huh," a whirlpool of sweat came out from his forehead.

"Empress." The Marquess Azel.

I hate him, I hate him so much.

Michelina ignored Marquess Azel. The man in front of him, indeed disliked his existence beside Emperor Jasper. He also often insinuated it in his past life. Maybe because he was close to Emperor Jasper, so casually insinuating him to stab into his heart.

"Next time if you meet me. Marquess Azel doesn't need to salute." Michelina said with a look of hate. He left Marquess Azel wrinkling his forehead.

"It's my duty, to pay respect to the powerful."

The words of Marquess Azel ignited the flames of vengeance on his chest. The violent insinuation makes him even more resentful of the person who loves Zoya.

"Don't insinuate me, I know the Marquess doesn't like my existence right," Michelina glanced at him. "Let's just say my existence is just the wind passing by." Michelina hurried to leave him.

Marquess Azel felt that there was something strange about Michelina, not usually the woman against him. Usually he would shut up and bow. To her, noble women were only sweet and innocent outside of her, but in her heart they were not.

Since when did he have such courage ?

Michelina's body slumped down. He bent his knees, crying in his loneliness. "Dad, Mom, I'm scared, I'm so scared. I want to go home." Michelina. Only then did he realize the marriage he dreamed of was just a fairy tale that would not come true. He covered his ears with both hands. That blood cry, made him afraid of coming into contact with anyone. He would try to fight it, because he already felt what death was like.
