His promise
As the man screamed for mercy, Rebecca wore a faint smile enjoying the show. Luther hugged her waist before saying, ''His majesty the Emperor is holding a banquet and I was wondering if you would be my date.'' Rebecca removed his hands from her waist before reprimanding him, ''Stop that, if anyone saw us together they would think I'm a harlot going after three men.'' Luther raised his eyebrows in confusion, ''What three men?''
-------------
''You, Jack and Mo beiyong.'' Luther didn't answer that and turned to leave but before leaving he said, ''Think about it.'' Rebecca shrugged, she didn't plan to go to the banquet with Luther. She was waiting for a certain someone.
-------------
At that time Mo beiyong was on his horse heading towards the Imperial city, he asked his shadow Knight about the recent updates. ''Well everything is going fine, Luther the Crown prince of this Empire and Jack from another Empire are currently fighting for Rebecca's heart and the Emperor is holding a banquet.
--------------
Banquet, if he could get Rebecca to follow him to the banquet maybe she could melt a bit of his frozen heart. They arrived at the Imperial city about half an hour, he went straight to the Imperial palace to inform the Emperor about his visit.
-------------
He went to the court room but bumped into Luther, ''You bastard watch where your going... oh welcome home.''
----------------
Actually Mo beiyong was given birth by the Imperial concubine, the most favoured concubine and sworn enemy to the Empress, him and Luther weren't on bad terms but ever since Luther heard Mo beiyong had eyes on Rebecca he wanted to get rid of him.
--------------
Mo beiyong didn't take his insult to heart because if he did, he would have beaten him up badly. He just asked, ''How have you been dear brother?'' Luther gave him the coldest glare ever before responding, ''Stay away from Rebecca, she's MINE the next time you won't be able to bear the responsibility.''
---------------
After saying what he had to say, he left pushing Mo beiyong aside. Mo beiyong looked at him for a few moments before going to pay the Emperor his respect.
-------------
''Welcome home my son, how were you on the border?'', ''I was fine, thank you for your hospitality.'' Although Mo beiyong knew that he was just saying it out of formality, it still made him feel comfortable.
-------------
After greeting the Emperor, he proceeded to go and pay respect to his mother. When he got there, he saw his mother's maid looking anxious. He asked, ''What happened?'' His mother's maid sighed, ''Lin mama is worried about your mother's health, she refused to eat anything till you come to see her.''
---------------
He nodded and went inside, there he saw his mother sitting on a chair reading a book ignoring his existence. He called out, ''Mother.'' There was no answer, he called out again, ''Mother.'' Still there was no answer, he sighed before kneeling down beside his mother and put his head on her lap.
---------------
''Mother, I'm sorry.'' His mother fianally put the book down and sighed, ''What will this old woman do, her son doesn't want to get married and bring forth grandchildren for me.'' Mo beiyong looked up and said, ''Don't worry mother, I already have my eyes on somebody. Just a matter of time, she will soon become mine
