ADORATION, INFATUATION (I'm not that kind of talent x wmmap) (Deon x Athy)INTKOT

CHAPTER 1 : THE DUTY FOR THE BANQUET

"I don't believe I asked for your opinion, Remember." Deon said with his usual menacing tone, his killing intent rising as the butler gulped in fear.

"Right, yes, I apologize young Master." The butler apologized in a respectful way, kneeling down to Deon.

"Hm, good. Now leave." Deon said, as remember nodded and left.

Deon was now alone in the large luxurious bathroom, the only thing that could be heard was Deon's silent mutters.

"Cruel Hart, My brother.." Deon muttered his brother's name in guilt and in anger, they used to be close, but some people can go from people you know, to people you don't.

Deon frowned, the bath that was supposed to help him relax turned his thoughts amiss.ppppp

MEANWHILE IN THE OBELIAN EMPIRE...

The tree leaves were flowing gently, the air breezing softly, the sunlight warm and cozy, the birds chirping and flying in the air, so far, the atmosphere was perfect, and completely different from the dessereEmpire's weather.

A beautiful girl aged only seventeen walked with grace through the garden filled with blooming roses. The roses were beautiful, but none could compare to the woman's beauty.

The woman had soft blonde locks of hair that the sunlight lightly reflected, with her Jeweled blue eyes shining more brightly than the sun's light ever could.

This woman was the one and only princess of the Obelian Empire, Princess Athanasia De Alger Obelia, the daughter of the current emperor with a dancer.

Athanasia remembered back when she was just a child, how the nobles used to hate her for being a half-commoner, but their attitudes all changed after she proved her intelligence throughout the conflicts around obelia.

She used to be called the 'Abandoned Princess', now she's called the 'Lovely Princess'.

Athanasia smiled, her smile enchanting and charming, her eyes softening as she admired herself in her mind.

She was proud of herself to overcome the challenges of a Princess born from a commoner mother. Though, her father was the emperor, he didn't care about her until he first met her at her sixth birthday.

That was years ago now though, her father loves her dearly, the aristocrats of obelia support her, and the commoners admire her. Everything was going perfect for her.

It's like she was in a dream, a dream she had always wanted, except everything was true, and that she was truly loved now.

She remembered the hardships she had come across during her time as a toddler living with unloyal maids who did not care for her properly and would mostly take her jewels and precious things from her when she was a baby, but that's changed too.

Every servant in each of the palaces all respected her, and loved her. No one would ever dare to steal from her ever again.

Athanasia arrived to the end of the large garden of roses, seeing her father had been waiting for her exit along with his most trusted royal guard.

"Father!" Athanasia called out to the golden haired man, as he smiled.

"Athanasia," her father, Claude, called out. Athanasia quickly hugged him happily, while his most trusted guard, Felix, smiled at the scene of the father and daughter.

"Shall we have lunch together in the diamond Palace?" Claude asked his daughter, to which athanasia agreed too.

Everyday was perfect for him, his daughter was perfect in every single way in his eyes, though others would sometimes disagree, since no one in the world is perfect, but he had always silenced them, he loved his daughter dearly, since she is his beloved's daughter, aswell as his.

The three arrived to the Diamond Palace, the palace where only the emperor resides in.

The maids, servants, knights, and other workers greeted him and his daughter. While they walked to one of the main dining rooms. The knights guarding each halls opened the dining room's door for them, while the maids helped seat them.

They sat down, with the two royals sitting across from each other on the large lavish table. The food immediately on the table, the food was delicious looking and had gold tilts on them.

"Athanasia, since you are going to turn eighteen soon, I have decided to hand you the duties of the crown princess." Claude stated, cutting his steak in half as he he ate. Athanasia was bewildered by what he said, 'crown princess', a title that she thought she would never have, but here her father was saying that is she would be the official heir to the throne soon, it excited athanasia at the thought.

"Really? Thank you father.." athanasia felt happy, as Claude smiled.

"For your first duty as my heir, you will attend the birthday banquet of the dessere Empire as Obelia's Representative." Claude said. The obelian empire had never associated themselves with other empires or kingdoms, since they were powerful enough to stand on their own. but her father was doing something different for curiousty, maybe?

"The dessere empire? I see.." athanasia nodded, she didn't want to go to the dessere empire at all when she studied about it during her studies, her smile was faltering, to which Claude caught notice of but didn't bring it up at all.

Their lunch was quick and entertaining, the father and daughter both talked to each other even after lunch finished. They were just like any other father and daughter except for the fact of their unbelievably good looking appearances with their jeweled blue eyes.
