Nervous Empress

[: 3rd POV :]

''Leaving already?'' All of a sudden, all of them heard an unfamiliar voice except for Tilith. 

As Tilith heard the voice, her heart fluttered and she widened her eyes.

At the same time, her eyes sparkled with excitement, and her ears perked up at the sound of his voice as though she was delighted by it.

Slowly turning around, she found herself face-to-face with a figure she had longed to see.

Draped in a black and white robe, the handsome man before her emitted an aura that felt oppressive yet gentle. 

With a warm smile graced on his lips, Tilith couldn't help but be attracted. 

"It's been a while, Tilith," Daniel, the Sect Master, spoke, his voice carrying a blend of familiarity and kindness.

Tilith, caught in a moment of both disbelief and joy, whispered his name. "You're..."

Daniel's smile widened as he greeted the Empress, "It's nice to meet you, Empress Lilith."
