an angel...

(THE FOLLOWING CHAPTER IS ARHON'S POV)

the Butler sighed at his masters ignorance and said, "I am sorry for my impudent behavior my Lord but, this isn't some meeting for you to attend... this is the grandest of ceremony held in empire."

"you will have to dress appropriately for it." the butler then bowed at his master showing his concern and apology for his rude behavior.

Arhon sighed and said, "get me the appropriate clothing for celebration"

the butler flinched up claped his hands and ordered the maids to get the suit prepared by the emperor and sent to them earlier.

Arhon looked irritated at the mention of emperor but didn't retort in front of the servants to seem polite.

Arhon then got dressed and left in the carriage prepared by the butler.

After sending Arhon away, the butler called up a meeting in servant room and ordered all the servants to get there,

"today was a total mess" he said with a cold voice.

"we all need to be prepared for any stances as such, and for that to be the case i will be doing a regular survey on daily basis and anything found to be out of place the person incharge will be dismissed from their position or what so ever."

the announcement send a wave of murmurs through out the room and the butler clapped his hands and said, "maintain your composure in any situation, have you already forgotten all the etiquette you learnt in the servant class... " with a shout sending chills down the servants spine.

the meeting was then dismissed and everyone went to take care of the work assigned to them.

***

Arhon then reached the Palace for celebration and soon as he had stepped out of his carriage he was met with chaotic sounds coming from behind, he turned towards it to get a sniff of things but was taken aback by the sight, he saw a girl with red hair which were never so common and was just admiring her beautiful red hair when she whirled around to greet a guy coming towards her and once again Arhon was mesmerized by the sight and couldn't have himself getting his eyes off it, when was interrupted by the voice calling him from back.

Arhon pulled himself together and turned back to get to the voice calling him.

it was of none other than, his majesty Leria in a disguise, Arhon going towards him asked still a few steps away from him "why are you here...and that too like this"

"What do you mean by, Why am I here... "

"I am here to help my greatest aid, and also to get my eyes some relaxation" said his majesty while giving a wink towards Arhon.

"I better make the gaurds aware, there is a pervert here" Arhon said while making an attempt to attract the gaurds behind them, When his majesty took his hand and said,

"hey, it's was just a joke, don't go on reporting your own master"

suddenly getting a serious look in his eyes, his majesty asked, "what did you find then."

"I apologize for disappointing you, your majesty I still haven't been able to search anything" Arhon said while trying to bow at his deepest, when his majesty took him by his hand and said,

"what do you think you are doing, you are going to make it obvious for everyone to spot me" with an intimidating voice as cold as ice.

Arhon went silent, and just apologized with a nod.

Arhon then went ahead and reported everything he had done after coming here except for the fact of him getting lost in the sight of a young lady.

Arhon then asked for his permission to get going, and then left for the deadline gardens without taking a step towards the celebration hall.

***

Arhon went straight towards the fountain where he could find the letter from 'him'.

he reached to the fountain not taking more than five minutes of walk as soon as Arhon reached near the fountain he took the hold of letter left there and had a seat near the fountain to take up a moment for himself.

"I should now get going, I need to hand this letter out to his majesty" Arhon thought while getting up from his seat and meeting with the sight of a lady falling to the ground in front of him, he walked towards her to make sure she was alright, and asked as she groaned,

"Are you okay...? Young lady" the lady didn't look up to him instead kept her face stuck to the ground.

worrying that it might have had some serious injury on her, Arhon walked towards her and kneeled down to her.

As Arhon looked up at her face he was stunned to find out that it was the same lady he had previously found admirable, just as Arhon was reliving her of her injury she blurted out without seeming to notice, "you have eyes like rubies"

I was in shock for a moment when I heard it, she didn't say it was scarry Or disgusting or even unpleasant she said they were like rubies, it was Arhon's first time someone ever saying something good about his eyes he was used to seeing peoples disgusting looks they had when met with his eyes but didn't know how to reply when someone complimented them.

he went silent for a second and then replied, "that's quite a compliment, don't you find them disgusting" on realising that what he said can seem rude he looked at her with a flinch but couldn't find any traces of disgust.

Arhon was unconsciously relived and went ahead to help her up on her feet and seated her on the fountain sitting next to her.

Arhon was finding the conversation to be an odd one, he didn't think he would ever get to proposed to by someone, he thought of it as some mischief of some young lady who wanted to explore on new things and he was just in its way and got it directed towards himself.

Arhon tried to shake off the lady as he knew it better than anyone else that how dangerous it could be to date someone like him who not only was a captain of the greatest knightage but also a secret spy and gaurd of his majesty the emperor.

Arhon came up with every excuse he could come up with in his mind to date the young lady as it was the first time when Arhon felt needed, Arhon thought for the first time there was someone who wanted him to be in their life.

Arhon couldn't help but feel happy at the thought of dating someone for the first time in his life.

Arhon felt guilty for giving up to his desires and taking up such an innocent girls youth to himself.

***

both of them started to date, not with the feeling of love but that of guilt.
