The Empress’ True Intentions

"…And you, young lady, don't you ever eavesdrop again and be too nosy. The next time you do that, you'll be grounded. I don't care if you still have classes at the Blues. If you make a mistake, you'll be disciplined. End of story." Mom said with her stern voice. We were already at my room's door. I gulped down my saliva and looked down at the floor. I couldn't look into my mother's eyes because I felt guilty. My mom didn't know I learned the shadow knights' stealth technique. I persistently asked Alpha to teach me about it. She hesitated at first, but when I told her that I wanted to protect myself, aside from learning the art of war from her and the technique of the weapon I chose, she dedicated her best to train me with the stealth technique.
