A Distraction And Warning.

In a room that was suited for a Queen, a woman sat on a royal reclining chair while a couple of maids attended to her. She was dressed in a fine seductive red silk and her body was endowed with quality and glittering jewelry.

Her face is hidden behind a red silk veil. Even with the cover, one could tell from a distance that she was a beauty. One fluster of her lashes could send the heart of many mortal men into chaos. She was as though sent to send men to their knees.

Her long legs were stretched on a cushioned stool and a couple of maidens massaged her toes and ankles. The golden anklets around her legs knocked against each other and made soft jingles breaking the silent vibes of the room. 

The door to the room was suddenly opened, and a young man strode in and walked to the woman. He was a few steps away from the woman when another guard stopped him from approaching her.
