And… She loves someone she shouldn't love. ******** She was sent to him to retrieve the information, but her fate twisted when she fell for him... *******SNIPPET******* "Luna." She said. The girl’s eyes were so captivating that Xiao Tianyao couldn’t be able to draw his attention away from her, as though something was sucking his soul. “Beautiful…” He kept repeating the same word in his reverie. “… All the palace people from the Kingdom of Xinghe will be sentenced to death.” The eunuch added some information before he ended the decree. Afterward, the soldier from before stepped forward and was about to grab Luna’s hand with intention to drag her away, however, surprisingly Xiao Tianyao held his hand before he could touch her. “Stay away from her.” Xiao Tianyao said coldly.

THE NEW MISTRESS

"If you kill him when the situation is like this, you will only help Xiao Wang Wei, to put him on the throne." Xiao Jun said, trying his best to suppress his anger.

With the currently situation, for them to kill Xiao Zi would only instigate revolt from their faction, since Xiao Jun still didn't have a good foundation except the Black Sword Clan and some people who still pledged their loyalty to the deceased Emperor, practically his strength couldn't be compared with Xiao Zi.

Even if they managed to kill Xiao Zi now, but the aftermath of it was something that Xiao Jun wasn't able to control yet. He still needed time to strengthen his power.

This is not the right time. Not yet.

"Then I will kill Xiao Wang Wei as well." Xiao Tianyao's eyes flickered with hatred, something that Xiao Jun rarely saw from his aloof brother.

"Why don't you kill me as well?" Xiao Jun asked him sarcastically. "If I can solve the problem as easy as killing them, I would have done that long time ago. It wasn't them that I couldn't handle, but the supporting power behind Xiao Zi that I couldn't control. I have told you this." Xiao Jun said sternly, especially with the power of Modama behind Xiao Zi.

This time, Xiao Tianyao didn't say anything and only glared at him.

"Will you let me to see her?" Xiao Jun asked after long silence spread between them. "If this is something that involved her, she has every right to know and I have to know her as well to be able to help you." He tried to reasoning with him.

At least, if he saw Luna by himself, he could have a rough idea what was exactly going on with Xiao Tianyao. He didn't want to provoke him again, the last time he forced him, it didn't end good.

Thus, he tried another approached.

"I will not let you meet her, Jun." Xiao Tianyao said coldly, there was determination in his voice.

He had really been possessed by something!

Xiao Jun looked at his only brother before he relented and said. "Alright," As he stood up. "Let's enter the palace and settle this matter."

***

It was only a moment before Xiao Tianyao left Luna inside their room.

To make sure Luna got everything that she needed, he left an old mama with her and six female servant.

Xiao Tianyao also introduced her as the Mistress of the mansion and emphasized to make Luna as the top of priority.

As the person who had been serving Xiao Tianyao since he was still a child, the old mama had never seen Xiao Tianyao socialize with any woman. It was very rare to see him interacted with one, let alone brought someone to enter the mansion.

Hence, the old lady treated their new found Mistress with care.

It was her nature to be a busy body as she tried to ask away whatever inside her mind, still she knew the limit.

When Luna only smile the moment she asked about herself and didn't explain further, the old lady wisely held back her questions and didn't pry Luna identity anymore.

It was only a matter of time before their young Mistress would open up. After all, she just arrived today and would live in the mansion, there would be unlimited time for the old mama to know her.

Thus, with smiled the old lady and the six female servants left her room when Luna said she wanted to take a rest.

However, when the door shut closed Luna sat on the couch while crossing her legs, waiting. She kept staring at the shut door for long time before the person that she had been waiting came.

An old man with white hair walked past the door with defiant aura, his derisive smile curled on the corner of his lips, as though nothing could meet him in the eyes.

"Father…" Luna called him.
