A RE-WRITTEN STORY

CHAPTER 6- A RE-WRITTEN STORY

As the maids brush my hair I begin to question why they were behaving so nice towards me, constantly asking if I was comfortable. In the original plot, the majority of the maids were bullies who would pick on Sovvia till they got a reaction.

Making sure to always do it when the emperor wasn't looking so they could pin all the blame on her being crazy.

Only a certain few maids were actually nice to Sovvia but it was usually out of pity of my situation.

"Ouch!" I cried feeling a tug on my hair pulling me out of my daydreaming

"I'm so sorry m'lady!" The maid said as she dropped to her knees to bow

"It's alright, Sovi is a strong girl!" I said in the most childlike manner possible.

The maid looked up at me happily and continued

to brush my hair

Yeah, they are definitely much nicer to me than described in the script, but that's a good thing I guess.

Once the maids are done with my hair, I get down and look into the mirror.

Wow, I'm genuinely super adorable! How cruel, how could anyone treat someone as adorable as me so poorly. They must have no taste!

I began twirling around in my dress the maids looking at me with delight in their eyes before I was tapped on the shoulder. " M'lady it's time for you to go meet with the emperor now!"

Wait, what

I completely forgot about the psychopath! In whose right mind says ill ever step foot into a room alone again with that war criminal!

Before I had realized it I was standing outside the grand doors to the emperor's office.

Alright. it's now or never.

Once I entered the room there were two people already in it the emperor doing his paperwork whilst a white-haired male stood beside him. I'm not sure if I'm right but this should be Kane the warrior. He has no family title as he was a peasant nor does his family name get revealed in the script.

But he's supposed to be the emperor's right hand, fighting alongside him in wars and battles. The emperor is known to be ruthless, but Kane is a complete mystery.

It is said whilst fighting you will never see him coming. But it is said he has a sweet spot for the emperor. It was also said that he was the only one who felt pity for the villainess and at some point begged the emperor to reconsider the punishment.

Though his efforts were in vain I still do appreciate his efforts.

When the emperor and Kane looked up and saw me the emperor turned to the other male and waved him off.

Whilst leaving the knight bowed to me and walked off into the corridor as I wandered into the office.

'What am I supposed to do!' I thought whilst fiddling with the hem of my dress. The emperor once again looked towards me and signalled for me to come closer and sit.

Not wanting to upset him I sat down on the couch which was rather soft. On the table in front of me lay various kinds of cakes and sweets.

Reaching down I grabbed a biscuit and popped it in my mouth quickly turning my head to the emperor to try and gauge his reaction but he was completely ignoring me; scribbling away at his paperwork.

She continues to stuff the food into her mouth happily silence filling the room, only the quiet sound of munching could be heard. Looking up she could see him staring at her. His expression looked dead but also interested.

"Do you enjoy them?" The emperor said breaking the silence

Covering my mouth I stared back at him 'Was I not supposed to eat them?!'

sweat dripped down my face as he got up and walked towards the couch in front of me. Closing my eyes in fear, waiting for something to happen but nothing did. Peeping I saw the emperor lying on the couch in front of me.

One leg was lifted and an arm was used to prop up his head.

Well, that was unexpected.

Getting up I looked down on him. 'THIS GUY IS REALLY ASLEEP!' I thought in utter shock.

Well, what am I supposed to do now show I just leave? there's no point in me staying. In all honesty, he looks pretty peaceful like this...

If only he looked like that all the time so I wouldn't have to be so scared

Without thinking I turned to walk out of the door only to find a hand grabbing my arm firmly. "Where are you going," The blonde-haired man said in a rather sleepy tone.

I was too scared to respond so I just froze like a goat after being scared.

Suddenly I felt myself get pulled in by the emperor, wrapped in his embrace.

HUH?! what is currently happening right now?

I look over my shoulder to see the emperor dead asleep but his grip is as tight as a gorilla. I try to squeeze my way out to no avail.

I'm not getting out of here anytime soon I sigh as I begin to get comfortable. The emperor's grip loosening.

''You know what maybe this isn't so bad after all'' I whisper before letting my sleepiness take over.

Dismissing the whisper of the name 'Eros' leave the emperor's sleeping mouth

.

When I awoke I was inside of a fancy-looking bedroom, the sheets were soft like silk and it felt as if I was sleeping on some sort of cloud.

Rubbing my eyes I hop of the bed, feeling dizzy as the previous day's events get flushed back into my memory.

That's when I remembered something important, something I had forgotten about up until this point. Mother! Where is she?

I push open the double doors with all my might and begin running barefoot around the halls, my still half-asleep brain not processing what's currently going on before I run into a tall figure.

"Princess, why are you running so early in the morning?" I look up to see Kane staring back down at me with a kind smile on his face.

Without thinking I blurt out "Mother! Where's mother!"

The smile slowly drifted off his face as he stared down at me.

"Princess your mother... she-" He hesitantly as if he couldn't find the words to say.

"She isn't awake right now and she won't ever awake again...She was found earlier in the afternoon you were brought here" What he said was sugar coated yet so clear as day.

But that's not possible...

Sovvia's mother wasn't supposed to die until she turned 10? From my knowledge, I'm only 6 currently. So why...

Is it because I tampered with the original plot? Is the universe trying to correct this plot mistake? If so does that mean the story has changed more? What did this mean for the future? I questioned my mind still hazy from just awakening for sleep.

Kane gave me a pitiful look before picking me up and carrying me back to my room. I am not sure when but I realized tears were falling down my face. But why I question as I was laid down back into bed.

My small hands clung onto the bedsheets as I wept, returning back into a deep slumber.
